He needs to support his coach and be "into it" physically and emotionally!
I love the Pies, hate Carlscum

He came on the scene and showed heaps of potential. He can mark and is a nice kick. He lacks the Physicality of a player of his size. He will turn it around if he can bring the physicality and intensity to his game. I don't think he can.

I'm not sure he can either Culprit, and all players, including Ash are up for criticism if they perform badly. However, no player should be personally abused, and specifically no racism should be permitted at all. Those who abused Ash in such a way on social media are pathetic, gutless, and should not be entitled to claim any allegiance to our club.

Racial Abuse and Criticism are two separate issues. The perception I have is if you criticise someone all of a sudden you are a racist. It's like the Boo'ing, that was linked to racism and that was exposed as rubbish.

It's not going well for Ash so far. 0 touches and a dropped mark. Half way thru the 2nd

The commentators are spot on and I rarely agree with them.

He’s just a liability so far, sadly.

He’s neck and neck with Bytel.

Half time, 2 tackles. A bit of bad luck to not get a few touches. But he should have taken that mark. He has no confidence whatsoever.

Do we put him in the goal square? He needs to kick a goal.

Can’t decide if he’s slow, just not trying or not good enough. But he’s terrible

No confidence. His head isn't where it needs to be for him to perform at his best.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

He is a magician. 1 score involvement from 0 possessions. Maybe they counted the number me he overran that led to Oleg’s goal.

He is out there tonight because we lost a lot of talls to injuries. I will support him while he is out there, but he'd want to have a big second half if he want to remain in the team.

How'd Krueger go in the VFL?

He has to make a contest and he has this quarter.
