Petrenko came on and did four fifths of SFA.
Two INS for this week of the three that were dead-set disasters.
Surely Gunston is streets ahead of these two muppets.

Three positives: Rory Sloane, Kurt Tippett, Graham Johncock.
Moving on.

THat just shows how bad everyone else played yesterday. Stiffy looked like he had no confidence at all at some stages.

Thought he busted his ballbags at every opportunity.
Even Truck looked lethargic.

But we all agree Schmidt and Petrenko were both awful and should be delisted?

The defence was under seige all day yesterday. Johncock did what he could, but when it just keeps coming in there's just nothing you can do. I don't think is was a lack of confidence you saw OS, it was more despair at the lack of support up the ground IMO.

The forwards were completely starved of opportunity, and did what they could, even working up the ground to try and get things happening.

The midfield needs to have a good hard look at the tapes this week. Did nothing. Barely won a clearance, and allowed Melbourne to transition from defence to attack so easily it just looked like they were doing circle work around witches hats.

Fingers crossed Thompson's calf isn't serious. Vince needs to come back in. Still think Henderson needs a spell in the SANFL - gotta say I would've dropped him last week ahead of Martin. Sloane will be better for the run.

How did we drop Martin for Schmidt? What a f**kin hack.

1. How was Jaensch not a positive? He was our best.

2. Schmidt was good yesterday, and offered more than Martin has in any game this year.

I was concerned about missing the football while I am overseas over the next few weeks.
But now I've decided it doesn't matter and I can find out what happened when I get back...
