    Too much looking for cheap, easy disposals. Got some at the start - but we failed to adjust when they picked up the intensity.

    We’re very lucky to be this close, tbh.

    Please stop bombing it. Never works for us (unless sam is up there taking grabs). Need more energy & options up front - but also entries need more thought.

    Port looking like a finals team. We are not.

    Yes, it was. But dumb decision to play on. Can’t reward silly play.

    Harry a bit fumbly, might have needed that week in the 2s for some touch
    COR and Wicks, surely we can do better

    Getting run end to end like i havent seen for a while

    Hopefully Horse has a good crack at half time

    Ladhams is playing his worse game of the year and our tackling has been very ordinary.

    Yes, but we don’t have great depth in small forwards or defenders. Part of our list build still to sort.
    'Delicious' is a fun word to say

    Should be able to run over them in the second half. Just need to kick a bit straighter, up the pressure around the ball and run them off their feet with outside spread.

    There's so much to fix up with the Swans. Tom McCartin needs to cover Marshall. Rampe can't do it. We need to spread the field more and clear out the forward line. We are playing too much into the congestion. We leave too much space open defensively around 40 out from goal, a problem we have had all year. It's too easy for opposition to lead into that space and also makes for too many of our players going for the same ball in the air.

    I don't know why the coaches haven't worked on these problems, or at least it's not apparent, because it's the same old story every week.

    Jake Lloyd we do not pay you $400-500,000/year to kick to opponents. This is 1/match this year.

    As for the forwards. You are paid, paid very well, to kick goals. Lance, I know you have been out for a while but the ball is supposed to go through the two big white posts not the big one and little one.

    That passage of play was utterly horrendous.
