    Re: WB Game Day V Fremantle R21 2022

    It's so typical of this playing group.

    Important game....OK, let's just let them control the football and see how that works out for us.

    There's just no in-game adjustment. Our leaders are pathetic.

    I reckon we rarely flick the switch on pressure if we don’t start well. Not good signs.

    Yep sums it up unfortunately. What puzzles me is the tactics-do we not change the way we play during a game when clearly what we are doing ain’t working?

    Why can't the coaching group adapt to the plan Freo have brought with the chip/possession?

    Look, the players have been woeful but the coaching group don't escape criticism for mine

    Watching them hit repeated 15 metre passes while we zone off for the long kick - how dumb are we? It improved in the last five minutes but surely it didn't take that long for our senior players to figure it out and adjust on field.

    Incredibly poor performance so far.

    Thank god for those Sam Darcy intercepts for giving me strength.

    Some positive signs from VDM and Darcy. Dunks was great.

    Gee Bruce has to go. Just nothing at the moment. Go to the VFL and find some form. Have a big preseason and come back next year

    We really are a hard team to invest time, effort and money in to.. we play like we don’t give a *!*!*!*!.

    Just no want or appetite to defend… it’s embarrassing.

    I don't know whether the coaches did or didn't do anything, but I'm going to assume that if it's obvious to everyone watching the game it's probably the former.

    The players have a history of not taking initiative, bringing conditional effort and being lazy without the football so I just assume it's largely a player issue. But you might be right, I don't know.

    89 v 130 kicks. When we are winning both clearances and contested possession easily. We simply can’t force a turnover when they get the ball. Need a massive adjustment at HT.

    Lobb’s trade value increasing. Based upon tonight he’d be a good addition.

    Lets see if Bevo can do what Chris Scott did last week and reset us. First 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter should tell the story if this group has another level it can reach today.

    The good news might be that our prime movers in Bontempelli, Liberatore and Macrae haven't hit their standard yet and a goal or two by Bruce might spark us as well.

    I am going apeshit with this non-performance in THE MOST IMPORTANT GAME OF THE YEAR FOR US!

    Just a diabolical performance. Some bastard needs to show some passion in the rooms to fire these blokes up for the second half. They are sleep walking for Chrissakes!!

    Upside is we are only 4 goals down. Bont needs to lift and the mids just pick up a man. We will roll all over them in the second half
    BB.

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