Review Round 6 - Sydney @ The SCG - 21st April 2024 - 1pm AEST

[KaySwizzle]

Think we went too young. Read is not a commanding forward against good defenders yet. Rogers doesn’t seem ready.

Luko forward is a better option (played well enough today though). Jeffrey defence is a better option. Flanders mid rotation is a better option.

I get we are trying things, but gotta pull the plug when they don’t work.

 

[kreglze]

Read can probably head back to the 2's now and get a touch, has looked lost today. Good for him to get a run at it and get 3 games under his belt.

 

[Supersuns]

Dew would of beaten Sydney.
We would be 1-5 but least he would beat Sydney

He did know how to play the game there. Say what you will, but he knew the SCG.

 

[Iva Bigun]

Hard to watch, much of it by our own hand but the umps have been shockingly biased which just makes it just that much harder to watch

Need to make a statement in the final quarter

flip out. Very out of character for Wil to lose his cool.

 

[Supersuns]

Luko forward. Read subbed off

 

[Young_Guns]

It’s going to take years and probably another 5-6 academy boys coming through who actually give a sh*t to undo this willingness to just roll over at the slightest threat.

You can almost set your watch to it. A big win and a bit of optimism followed by the midfield completely failing to show up, the defence turning into a group of AusKickers, and the forward line failing to make a single contest, and not a single care in the world from any of them.

Yeah very very disappointing performance.

offer the tigers whatever the heck they want for Rioli we need players who can actually kick the ball in our backline

 

[Supersuns]

They are have given up.
Just walking around with no cares. Thought we are past this s**t

 

[kreglze]

Heeney is just too good.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Yeah pathetic by them now. Eagles will beat us next week. They are humming

 

[eppo67]

It's a Disgraceful performance now

[KaySwizzle]

Getting 37 points on a clear day is a big concern.

 

[Young_Guns]

And here comes the ‘well a loss is a loss whether its 1 point or 100 points so better not hurt myself by going near it’.

F*ck this is a group of peahearts.

 

[eppo67]

At least we know Hardwick will rip into them and make changes until Dew who would have made excuses and dropped 1 player

Shouldn't have to rip into them. This sort of performance shouldn't be happening anymore. Disgraceful.

whenever he’s on a half decent defender is a wash

True but previously everyone knew who was getting a game it's not the case now

Clohesy is ready. Graham is ready. Walter is ready. The others were rushed in and played ok at best, but aren’t best 23 yet.

But Hardwick is just trying things. As long as he learns from it and makes the changes needed.

Mids were well beaten. This is how it goes for us when that happens.

 

[Supersuns]

Just playing like a Dew team out there. No plan if we don't win the ball at stoppage.

 

[Young_Guns]

Would like to see Walter down at full forward while Rosas is out. Gives us 1 player down there who will chase like nothing else and create a chance out of nothing. King just provides nothing for someone with that speed.

 

[lommy]

I was prepared to lose. But not like this… WC looking a real challenge at home next week. heck.

King should be up the ground and draw a defender with him and use his speed more. He can’t mark 2v1. Not in his wheelhouse. Agree Walter can go there. It’s more his strength.

Picking Roger’s has put us in a tough spot. Can’t drop him after one game (bit rough). But I think Read can go back to the VFL.

Luko can go forward if need be. Jeffrey is another option to take Luko’s spot.

Flanders should go back into the midfield rotation more, especially when his confidence is down.
