3 things I've learned - R2 vs StKilda

[GVGjr]

Please list 3 things you have learned from tonight's match against the Saints.

[GVGjr]

Bump

[KT31]

That I’m not cut out travelling to games and watching the lack lustre, heartless performances we continue to dish up.

[bulldogtragic]

1. The players aren’t playing for Bevo or listening to him
2. Goal kicking and skills are not improving - whose responsibility is this
3. If this continues, some good players will leave, our picks and salary cap space won’t attract players and we will be sprinting into a rebuild sooner than anyone thought possible

[The Adelaide Connection]

1. We don’t just look shit against contenders, half a bottom 4 team can even do that to us.
2. We are slow. Slow of mind. Slow physically. Slow to change a game plan that other teams know how to beat.
3. A week is a long time in footy. Two weeks of playing like that is an eternity. We are at rock bottom, but I guess the only way is up?

[Mofra]

1. We are going to get out-run by most teams
2. Sam Darcy is going to be a superstar any position he plays
3. We have a decision to make - 'good' players or 'effort' players, because right now (apart from Bont) it's an either/or proposition

2. Sam Darcy is going to be a superstar any position he plays

Keen to hear more about that one, Mofra. Agree that he has a big future but I thought he was a passenger tonight.

Got his hands to it plenty of times.
Compared to most 210cm kids who have had half of a pre-season for their entire careers, he's a mile ahead of where he should be.

Was it Sam’s kick, mark or handball that lead you to make this call?

[1eyedog]

Darcy shouldn't be playing full stop.

[GVGjr]

Darcy shouldn't be playing full stop.

I suggested that a few months back

[Grantysghost]

1. A few players appear to have hit the down slope of their careers at the same time.
2. English will be fine as a ruck.
3. Bevo may be out of salty dogs.

[JanLorMill]

2. English will be fine as a ruck.

Yes we are going places with him as ruck. Maybe he shaded Marshall slightly in the stats but Marshall way more influential in the result but hey English in only 26.

At 26, he should be at his peak. With the team playing so poorly, he has to be supported by another ruckman. Sweet isn?t going to look any worse.

Wait, English was great last night how are we potting his game? Genuine question.
