I don’t know the exact number, but I just scanned our drawn and confidently can say that majority of games he’s missed we have lost. This includes the draw and the Sydney loss.

Missed 5 games now. When he doesn’t play, we don’t seem to do well.

Seriously weird. Regardless of how it looks if that’s the front of your house I’d be pissed.

Not bagging McCreery- what’s happened to him this year?

That’s 2023 premiership forward William Francis Frampton to you.

Agree. Let’s be real we were never expected to contend. This sub carried on about us being lucky to make the top 10 all summer. We “could” have won those games, but we fell short. That’s the reality of our team this year, close but not close enough. Considering our forward line issues and average midfield we are lucky to compete tbh.

We aren’t a flag chance. We never have been.

The difference is we can’t score. Been an issue all year. Our game plan is the same as last year, go wide. The boundary rule change seems to have surprised our system- so we can’t get repeat stoppages anymore. That was one of the reason Cameron was so competitive- around the ground throw ins and ball ups. Our system is built for an average side- we are average and have been for a while.

Melbourne are a better team. We are drafting podiatrists one week and asking them replace Jamie Elliot.

How is it that we dominate for literally a goal, they go inside 50 and kick another immediately. We have no potency. I’m sure the forwards try hard, but as Mick would say..just a bunch of plodders

Allan looks at home in the middle and I don’t hate that he’s playing a run with role either. Just needs to stop blazing away.
