    Lovely we get to wait all pre-season to see the same thing.

    - No improvement in ball movement.
    - Miss easy goals
    - Give up easy goals
    - Make scoring hard work
    - Play 2-3 rookies who are miles away.

    So easy out of the stoppages for Melbourne. Our much vaunted on ball brigade doesn’t care much for manning up.

    Naughton getting a bath so far. I think all the reports of him ‘flying’ over preseason says more about who he was playing on and less about him.

    He hasn’t gotten near it. Would argue the delivery in and work of his fee low forwards haven’t made it easier

    He hasn’t gotten near it and his opponent is racking them up.

    Pretty ugly display and more so that the same issues we've had for 3-4 years are still present. Our midfields blatant refusal to block space and run the other way is quite remarkable.

    Our defenders can't defend and our forwards have no cohesion. If Bruce and Naughton go for the same ball one more time......

    The only area we look different or better in, is the ruck. At least we're competitive now.

    Not a pretty game to watch. Same old with set shot kicking. Should have at least 3 or 4 more on the board

    When he leads we kick it over his head. He had May cold in the first qtr and Hunter bombed it over his head.. got to hit up the leading player, especially against May is so strong one on one.

    We should be right by about round 16 and come home with a wet sail to steal 7th or 8th spot.
