    Not fit at all for mine - something wrong, as has had zero impact on the contest.

    Where is Nick Davis when you need him to pull you out of a hole?

      Rowbottom is having a howler. Has no idea what to do with ball in hand.

        Jaysus what the heck is wrong with this team tonight. I don’t normally like to be to negative but the ball use tonight has been very poor not appearing to be looking for targets just blazing away and the Hawks defence is outplaying us with the extra man making them almost impenetrable.
        Baffling umpire decisions are not helping but the run and accuracy from the start of the season seems like a distant memory now.
        A game that started out looking like it was going to be entertaining has become a frustrating and hard to watch performance. Not out of it but it will take a quarter like some we put together early in the year to get the points.

          Looked comfortably 15 to mine.

            Really disappointing game by a few especially Oli Florent. Doing nothing !
            Heeney has been disappointing too. Maybe they can switch the magnets and put heeney in the back half. Put Hewett on Mitchell and let Taylor go forward.

              Not good enough. Unacceptable.

              The coaching staff can not let Papley get away with this.
              The coaching staff have a lot more to worry about at the moment that that.

                Wicks is an undisciplined footballer. Until you become a decent player playing tough gets you nowhere.

                  Umpires have been worth at least 3 goals to the Hawks.

                      We've won 3 out of the last 5 v Hawks. Logic?

                        Mitchell has turned into an arrogant little prat.

                            Fox is not a tall defender.

                              That's 3 times Rowbottom has walked back into the play and caught HTB. Selfish non team play. Thinks he's Dustin Martin.

                                Brand should have played - clearly.
