    Hall, O'Keefe and Davis have been well beaten, even taking into account poor delivery.

    Midfield is being beaten.

    C Bolton doing a great job.

    Richards not too bad.

    Someone again explain to me the point of Ablett in the side - 2 disposals to half time!
    All that said, if they stop doing stupid lairy things and get the finger out at the stoppages it is ours for the taking.

      Roos works in mysterious ways. Oh, wait, I might have got that wrong....

        Our forward entries have been poor - Hall, MOL, and O'Keefe have had no chance.

        On the first 2, one word - clearances, do what you get paid for you blokes.

          More glass half full, IMO. Mal, Nick and Ryan not in the game at all but we're still even. Have locked down their movement out of 50 and doing better in clearances. Need to improve delivery into 50.

          We usually finish strongly. Wonder how the interchanges are going?
          I was wrong about Gerard and his hair.

            3rd quarter will tell us where we are. If they leave initiative to Saints like they did to WC, we're gone.

              I reckon Fossie is doing well and C.Bolton is BOG.

              We need a few blokes to lift - our forward line is not presenting well.

              Teddy doing OK on Riewoldt I think.

                Yes, I agree that the game could go either way and if we actually improve and play some decent football we should win.

                However, it depends on a number of players (Hall, O'Keefe, Malceski, Davis, Ablett) who are getting well beaten to do something.

                  We're getting killed in clearances: 12-20.

                    .
                    Couldn't make the game due to illness. Either my team wins tonight or I'm up $28.

                      I'm wondering if there has been a worse overhead mark for a power forward than Barry Hall. Hudghton is killing him.

                        This is probably the most boring game I've seen for a while.

                            MOL should kick this - suits his left to right kick.
