Our ball use was dreadful.

Why can’t we use an opposition behind as a launching pad, rather than turn the ball over.

Arghhhhhh

Silver lining....we could have lost still playing Greenwood, Mayne etc. At least we played Murphy, Rantall, etc.

Do you pay any attention? We've traded out our first round pick this year.
That just makes my point. We aren't rebuilding because we CAN'T. I don't think fans know how seriously this club has been destroyed from within!

Oh and by the way, the genius who designed that shocking colour clash jumper today you go too! You couldn't see the white stripes, and with the Emirates red on it as well it was difficult not to confuse players. This club is amateur hour.

Well what to say!
They are a shambles.!
Even when they have the ball, they turn it over, make bad decisions and out their team mates under pressure.
We have no one who can turn the game or has any sense of brilliance. I would say Quaynor is nearly our best player and that includes Pendles :roll:

Steelo has less impact every week and Grundy ..well I don't know...what can I say.Massive disappointment watching him..
Maynard whom I have always admired , constantly turns the ball over and doesn't play with that toughness any more.

Daicos is struggling . Madgen is too slow and gets caught and shouldn't have been on TW all that time.

What to say!!
Why is our ball use so HORRIBLE?
HOW CAN THAT BE BUCK'S FAULT REALLY???

If Sideclown is going to get a game next week, then play him forward, because he just slaughtered our momentum countless times, fumbling and couching up possession time after time.

Sadly, this is what I saw as well. I agree, he needs to be positioned out of the heat of the middle. He couldn't be relied upon in the backline with his current poor level of disposal and decision making, so it looks like the forward line if he is given a game.

Hey, big shout out to Gil McFloglan and his team of merry f^cktards, who knew this was our home game, and should have made dopers strip a lighter shade, being the away team. They can take the blame.

Those of you having a crack at Sidebottom might want to have a look at the stats - a game high 12 tackles and an equal game-high 17 contested possessions amongst his 30 disposals. The hard inside role is not his game because he's too small and too slow - but, as he has done his entire career, he just turns up to do what he can in whatever ridiculous slot the Coach asks him to fill. He's probably close to the end but, really, he was one of about a half a dozen AFL-standard players on the field for Collingwood today.

Yep, it wasn't the worst that's for sure. Worth persisting with.

My old man messaged to say just this...the clash was awful not aided by the red on the back of the jumper.

It is the coaching staff's fault. Not instructing the players to play man on man. Zoning is so passe. Look at Parrish over 40 disposals, Tippa on his own for 5 goals.

Pfft rubbish coaching
