I feel we overcommit a little too much with our forward press. We still give up too many easy goals on the break while we have to scratch and claw for every goal because it’s so congested. We’ll dominate for 10 mins for no score and they go down the other end and have players 20m in the clear and get the easy goal

Absolutely nothing in the Weitering incident. Nothing to worry about

We’re missing Motlop. He’s clearly our most dangerous small forward

I thought JW was trying to pull him up and slipped. But being clumsy can still get you suspended.

Yeah it was at its worst under Teague. We’ve tightened it up a lot but I still don’t think we have the balance right.

Enjoying TDK as number One Ruck and McKay as back up
When he build pressure we look very good
Walsh & Cerra need this game

The media is on its typical witch hunt against Weiters now. Far out. Why do we do stupid things even given it’s not intentional. We shouldnt give them any reason.

Interesting first half.
Great to see Charlie get his second Coleman.
However after that our intensity seems to have dropped a little.
I'd like us to put them away like we were done last year.
That nearly goal from Hollands was almost spectacular, so close.
The biggest concern for me is our lack of speed and hitting targets.
We need to tighten this up as this our last chance to pre finals.
Let's go Blues!!

Yeah, I don't think there was much in it.
A fine at the absolute most.
I'm more worried about the finger injury and Saad's ankle.

Great atmosphere at the ground. Our positioning is a bit off but we're right in it.

I'll be filthy with weiters if he goes

The way the boys swarmed over Toby to get him off Mitch makes it seem like Toby’s not very well liked.

100%. We’ve lost nothing with Pitto out. TDK is putting up the stats numbers that they usually have combined.

I think he’s one of those types who you love if he’s on your side and hate if he’s not. Definitely has a fair pest factor

We seem to be a bit off exiting half back and transitioning through the middle, so the problem is with the half backs and the mids. Fisher’s not doing very well with his disposals and Cerra and Walsh are a bit rusty onball.

it is actually wrecking the centre bounce. if they can't bounce it straight up, start throwing it up

I've said it 100 times.
Supposed to just let a 110kg bloke jump straight into you because the bounce was rubbish

For 100 years it was considered good body work. Protect the fall of the ball. Now it’s a block.

If they bounce it on your head and your opponent gets a run up and jump on you, what are you supposed to do? Run away? Stand there and be a step ladder? Get rid of the blocking rule or get rid of the @#$%&! bounce
