Some bright news - switch to 7Mate at 8.30 pm and watch the movie Bridge of Spies. A terrific true story well told.
Gary Powers' U2 is a metaphor for us this season.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

There are so many awful disappointing things about today that I’d like to at least pause for breath and acknowledge Bailey Smith ‘s game. To keep running, tackling, and presenting in a soul destroying effort like that was the mark of a very very good player.

24 touches is plenty. He was woeful again.

Play him at CHF then and bring in Sweet or JT
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

I think we need to change tact and select our best team this week. Sounds like a strange approach sure, but it might be crazy enough to work.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Re: WB Game Day V St. Kilda R2 2020
Baz is the only player who looked like he was playing to his strengths and really backing in his ability. Naughty started to get motoring.
The rest of the Club need a kick up the arse. They are pissing away a Club defining era of football & in the same breath, given the industry woes, going to undo the gains from 2016.
We're coooked. Another season shot before it even started.

Why would Bevo do something crazy like that? He just likes to pick ‘his’ team, not the best one.

Re: WB Game Day V St. Kilda R2 2020
Someone needs to tell Bevo to bloody well play Trengove as our main ruck, do not play players coz they are “tough” if they cannot kick (Gowers) and drop soft players like Dale rather then give them a second chance and possibly Lloyd (slow with little pressure so if he cannot kick straight should not be in the side).
If season continues like this I think I will at least try and enjoy Bailey Smith become a superstar - he is a gem.
Also I wish some of our players took a leaf out of the gutsy efforts by Lin Jong.

3 kicks up until 3/4 qtr time is extremely poor. He only started to amass some possessions late. Whilst 24 is plenty only 11 kicks and most were poor. Very very disappointing.

Agree really stood up. I thought Bailey Williams wasn’t too bad either.
