Who?
Talk in Brissie town is that Cloke to the Suns in exchange for Prestia.
Has that done the rounds before on here?

I'm with you on this.
The dung heap needs to be bulldozed.

Well, it still hasn't clicked. There are lots of good signs, from Moore's improvement in the second half to the continued emergence of taylor Adams as an inspiration. But we're a few players short of being a top side. Elliott and Scharenberg, plus continued growth in Moore, are probably the best hopes for upside.
I think Jesse White down back and Howe forward is probably the next thing to try. White looked great down back in the second half.
If we hadn't gifted them two keystone cops goals from kick-ins I think we might well have found enough energy to win. But at our best we could only have edged it, so we need to find some more quality in this list.
We missed Sinclair's ball movement badly,and Fasolo was clearly either suffering from soreness or lacking in match fitness.
Finally, we have got to find a clearance beast somewhere. When we lose the clearances we lose the match. When we win the clearances (eg GWS) we are certainly good enough around the ground.
I think negative votes probably go to Marley Williams and Jonathan Marsh, who were both really poor to self-harming tonight. Howe was not much better.

He will go but only after it becomes bleeding obvious to any rabbit that he he is crap.
But at the moment only about 80% think he is crap.
Got to wait for at least another 15% to think he is rubbish.
But remember .... we don't eat our own.... we just let them <snip> us over before we change.

| Skill errors and another head start catch up football. Finals like game bucks wanted shows were not good enough |

Horribly disappointed and frustrated and angry. I'm sick of this. Team on paper had no excuses. We dished up some appauling footy.
May as well not have bothered with a center 4 players. We have the worst center clearance rate. And it continues game after game.
We are going no where under Bux. I see very little that looks like a a consistent hard team. We are easy to play against. |

We pretty much carried Cloke and Fasolo tonight they were below average. Sidey , Varcoe, Crisp , Moore, Smith and Pendlebury tried to drag us off the canvas but the damage was done early after a horrible first quarter. Trealor got better as it went on but our field kicking was shocking and as mentioned we really missed Sinclair's run and smarts. f#ck i hate lindsay thomas and that smug wormed faced harvey.

You just don't understand football do you!
Crap team with a crap coach = a crap result.
But remember Blair is a game changer ....spew....

We don't play the ground well. Not sure if that's a thing but every time I see us play there were rubbish.

We played one short for the whole game. Nonetheless we were right in it half way through the 4th. Wasn't pretty and wasn't good, but certainly wasn't as bad as some want to believe.

^ yeah, good summary MM. I We are certainly more competitive than we looked earlier this year.
The clearance story was the killer though - how can that happen ???
