Great gutsy aggressive player, and stands up for his mates. But his disposal is consistently bad. |

Possibly, but if I do it'll be because he changes his game. He really was disastrous today on many occasions, and it is structural. He has courage and commitment and he should be a leader, but it is hard to be a leader when you repeatedly create easy turnovers and goals for the opposition. _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

He's a poor kick, they said it before GWS drafted him, they said it when we drafted him, the bloke is just an average kick.....the real issue is that he gets it such potentially damaging positions for either team, hit the target and we get a goal, miss and they take it down the other end..... _________________ "The last thing he expected WAS THE FIRST THING HE GOT!!!!!"

He is an 80s standard footballer, in a modern day scenario. It's just not working. _________________ M I L L A N E 4 2 forever |

Far too many being far too harsh on Tay.
There is truth in the fact that his disposal by foot is not his best suit but he plays the team game, knows how to get the footy and knows how to tackle and run hard both defensively and offensively.
We'd be worse off without him. _________________ kymbo |

^ has many good qualities, but he's like a meat cleaver in an operating theatre. He really did cost us that game today. Several times when we had them on the ropes he launched a haymaker that knocked us out. _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

He wasn't alone.
Do the names Grundy and Pendlebury ring any bells ? Both under 60% DE.
Also Crocker, Greenwood, Brown and Smith. _________________ Donny.

Sigh. Having calmed down, he's disposal still cost us the game. He would have been directly involved in 4 goals against from his turn overs in the back half. He had mates, our mids stopped running which is understandable after the trip back from Perth but when your season is on the line you have to find something.

Let's get something straight.
It wasn't only Adams who butchered the ball and cost us goals.
Smith - 3 goals
Sidebottom - 1 goal
Crisp - 1 goal.
There is a problem with ball in hand when the pressure is really on and that today was glaring.
I tried very hard not to mention the umpires, but I can't help myself. Apart from missing a number of frees, there were 3 that I remember that were softer than melted butter that directly contributed to goals. _________________ Jatsad - That is all |

Any backman in modern footy will give up a goal here and there - it just goes with the territory of essaying difficult skills under great pressure. Smith and Adams today, though, were both a bit nightmarish. Smith is usually ok, but it's Adams that really worries me as it seems very structural. For all his excellent qualities, where do you play a footballer who cannot kick the ball with reasonable accuracy ? _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

Yeah, that's what football is pal. Perform well & you get credit. If you don't, you get held accountable. If you continue to make the same errors game after game, your worth and future get questioned. Simples. |
