    McLean will be taken to task for his lack of possessions and yet he's had more than Bruce and Keath
    I acknowledge Keath hasn't done much wrong and agree Bruce has been disappointing again so far.

    Great first half and some good performances from our mids. Bont has been outstanding, Smith, Lippa, Macrae, Libba all getting the ball. Butler has picked up 7 disposals as has West, although he was quiet for that quarter.

    Bruce needs to be on a diet.

    Mclean is a mid and needs to do more. He goes missing in games.

    All the Baileys doing well. Bont is just... amazing. So brave, so skilled.

    Not happy about Naughton, fingers crossed he's not out for too long, he was astonishing before he went off.

    just a question are the swans using their main backs to stop Bruce which is giving our other forwards opportunities , everytime I see Bruce he had Alir Alir and another player on him.
    And we also aren’t really kicking it to him either.
    He might not be getting near it but this could be the decoy.
    I’m not going to slam him if others are kicking goals.
    Whoever is on Dale is shitting themselves they are giving him free kicks left right and centre trying to stop him.
    Bring back the biff

    When Mclean works hard both ways, he doesnt need to win loads of the ball.
    The game doesn't seem to be an intercept friendly game; maybe its the shorter SCG? But Keath is noticeable by the lack of impact his direct opponent is having.
    Bruce just doesn't seem to be adding anything to his 3rd of the field.
    I hope he can get some shots on goal, we might need him to hot his straps if Naught's ankle keeps him out for games.

    I get that Bruce is playing a role or whatever, but his poor workrate and habits are hurting us. That “hanger” “attempt” on the wing was really selfish.

    Gee. Good game by the boys. The stand out is the trees given away by Bruce. He just looks lost and giving away free as a frustrated old footballer. His fir Bruce not mark it on the wing and hive the free to Lewis Taylor. Very disappointing
    BB.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    Good observation ledge but in saying that he really needs to take some of the marks he is contesting. But he is also more of a lead up player and doesn’t seem to be moving welll enough. As others have said he needs to lose some baby fat.

    The handball turnover should not have happened which lead to their only goal
