    Without a forward line we'll never make the 8.
    We're getting what we deserve with play like this.
    I like Horse, but now I'm starting to have some questions.
    Well we came 5th last year and I assume our goal would be to improve on that, which I thought we could have

        After today's performance, kicking 7 goals thus far against one of the worst defencrs, questions have to be asked of the coaches. For crying out loud, leave White and Tdl in the damn forward line to give us structure.

          Horse has no idea how to play anything other than 2005 Roos football. Need a new coach and a new recruiting mindset. Too many slow in and under mid fielders with no foot skills

            I thought Horse was being used as a scapegoat and that the players performances were under-par, but Horses tactics and coaching this game has been poor, with mismatches and unsuccessful attempts and structuring of the forward press.
            We need a full forward so badly to provide structure to our forward line.

            We've won 3 of our last 8; its a shame after we started so strongly.

              run from half back which has been our strength and creativeness in the past is long gone.. we need malceski, rohan back and to their best were definetly missing it.

                  Not when it's 30 plus points. Amend that: 42 points with 4 minutes to go is embarrassing. Should not be in the 8.

                  Looking at the telly and Horse's reaction, the team has not followed the instructions. They thought that all they had to do was to turn up to win today.

                  At least on RWO tonight there won't be a call to play the young players. Rather a list of who to sack or retire.

                  How lucky are Jesse, Bevo And Andrejs tonight?

                    We've been smashed by Richmond. If I see any positive spinning of this, I'll throw up.

                            Disgraceful effort, just did not turn up and we do not deserve to play in finals. Probably can't win another game this year

                              I like your thinking.
                              Pyke for White though (if he's fit).

                                if goodes doen't fire...we can't win

                                We really lack leadership today. If Adam Goodes doesn't fire we can't win. We have almost a full list with one player injured. no excuses really.
