Was Wally a broken leg?

Honestly. Who is our fwd coach? Surely they're on the gun this year. We have no system.

It's an insanely tough job given he's barely got genuine forwards to work with on a game to game basis, and that we insist on having either everyone in the forward line or nobody in there at all.

[jeemak]

Was Wally a broken leg?

Yes. Exactly the same as Stringer.

[Ghost Dog]

Saints always trouble us. Always.

We can't be 1% off or we are in trouble.

Worst night of footy in decades. I'm gutted. So gutted. Top 4 is shot. Mitch has the hardest 2 years any footballer will have, there in front of him.

I'm just so annoyed and frustrated.

I'm gonna get drunk. Old school drunk.

Solidarity for Wally. Look, we have played without our captain, without our best small attacking mid, our best running back, not to mention all the other injuries, and yet still got top four. When Bevo says we haven't achieved anything, I don't entirely agree. Go easy.

Was Wally a broken leg?

Leg or ankle.
Did it the same way Jake did by kicking his other leg.

Libba, Stevens Jong Wallis (till injured) were all off tonight and didn't help our cause.

Gee Boyd has been disappointing.

Actually can't agree. Didn't take many marks but really presented and chased and did the small things. Had to ruck the whole second half

Sotheby's. Thanks bad I needed a laugh.

Yep, counting the time he rucked in the first half, he probably spent 3/4s of the game rucking or resting on the bench. Not getting paid an obvious mark was just insulting to the kid.

Thats because your asking inside mids to play half forward, full forward, forward pocket and outside the contest. On occasions it works but we are asking them to do it week in week out. Injuries hasn't help our plight but as I have said before Bevo has gone too far with his flexibility mantra.

There's definitely an element of hubris to it, though I don't know who on our list commands forward spots in place of the mids we have playing in them.

I didn't pick up Morris injured at the ground but saw Roughead play back for the second half. When did Dale go off?

[The Bulldogs Bite]

Just gutted right now. Sick of being on the wrong end of injuries sure we get some back but lost 2 more vital players in the process. Just defeated as a supporter. I've got very little left in the tank.

Yep. I'm done.

Footy can get stuffed.

Missed shots at goal also didn't help.

How bad was Suckling?
He put in a shocker. We had very few good players with Hunter Roughead and Bontempelli the stand outs. Redpath and Tom Boyd were poor up forward. Only Bonti looked capable up forward and with Libba down we lacked class in the midfield .
