    Am I the only one infuriated that we stick with having dedicated players for kick-ins when the rest of the AFL has taken advantage of the quick kick-in rule?
    Would you prefer LRT to kick it in?

      sad to say but a heartless effort. third rate skills by a bunch of players showing they need to be discarded at season end.

          LRT's foot skills really are a bit lacking, Kirk should show some leadership and talk to him about it... oh... well...
          I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
          We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

              Surely after another crap performance, someone must start a positives thread.
              "Davis...Davis has kicked 2...he snaps from 40...dont tell me, dont tell me, hes kicked a goal....unbelievable stuff from Nick Davis, can you believe this, he's kicked 3 final quarter goals and Swans are within 3 points..."

                  I'd prefer that we had a green light for pretty much everyone in the team to kick it in quickly if there is an open man, if there isn't one then fine go back to the designate kick-in player. Obviously LRT and Kirk may be the exceptions to that.

                        Well that's just about it for the season and maybe a few careers.

                        Our defence is a shambles compared to 2005-06. Hand passes straight to the opposition, holding the ball, dropped marks, kicks missing targets in the defensive 50. Yes the midfield pressure should be better but the goals are coming far too easily.

                        LRT supporters should watch him closely for the rest of the game. He's is a dead set liability to the team and is offering nothing.

                          Well that was good

                          Buchanan and Bolton doing reasonably well in the middle and the forward line looks moderately dangerous on the rare occasions the ball's got down there.

                          But our defence is in disarray. They all look completely bereft of confidence. Mattner's missed mark, sloppy and missed tackles, handballs in hope...

                          Umpies weighing in with their bit too. HTB free against B2 was harsh indeed, and there was a clear dropping of the ball by a Pies player in the lead up to the second Cloke goal.
