To be fair particularly in the pack we got fk all options for CC to pick from
We didn’t know how good we had it in 2012-2016 with a pack with Graham, Tank, Kas, Beastwood, young Jacko, Finucane
Fast forward today we have Okonbor and Waddell
I think our team is collectively soft mentally (and probably physically too).I don't blame tpj for our defensive deficiencies, there were 12 other blokes on the field that showed no urgency what so ever to plug the gaps, at least tpj put his head down and had a go, the flogs inside of him should have adjusted, but they just coasted.
Bunch of pea hearts coached by a cat.
Agreed! Give us forwards who hit hard, chase hard and wear their heart on their sleeve, this is what the dogs of war was. I could care less about fancy forwards with silky hands. First criteria for selecting forwards to play in the blue and white should be grit.I think our team is collectively soft mentally (and probably physically too).
Sad when I think of how Dogs of old would fight to the death to win a game - never give up.
One prime example is our coming back from almost dead and buried to beat the dirty Parrascum in the 1998 final.
Today's Dogs team would have just folded. Actually, they wouldn't have because they never would have been playing finals footy in the first place.

Gus pulls alot of strings, i reckon CC runs the team past Gus for final approvalCiraldo is a complete f..kwit. No matter what the f..k he does behind the scenes (which doesn't seem much) a HUGE part of a coach's role is to select the best players at his disposal and at that just like Barrett he's a complete and utter FAILURE. Waddell in the 17 ahead of Pele when we have no-one who can bend the line. What a f..king deadshit
The forum was blaming the sliding defence behind fat boy. Ciraldos Cronies can do no wrongJust seen that Moses came out and said he targeted TPJ. This comes after Ciraldud defended TPJ defence post game LOL.
No, it snot!The team change just came through
I think it was the nose
No body knows
The defence on the inside should've been better but TPJ got baited hard and was pulled miles out of position and didn't even get close to Moses. It was a terrible decision and he did practically the same thing again a few minutes later.The forum was blaming the sliding defence behind fat boy. Ciraldos Cronies can do no wrong
Rubbish.Brad Morrin and Jarred Hickey would
Destroy our current pack.
Difficult to wrap up guys when they are spending the majority of their time clutching at thin air !!Rubbish.
We play in an era of automatic HIA sin bins.l and hip drops. Hickey was a walking hip drop.
The way of tackling has changed and the guys of yesteryear would hardly be on the field in today's game.
The problem with our guys is that we haven't worked out the most effective way to wrap up guys without giving away a penalty or going off on sin bin.
If that was Ogre missing in 2004 Moses would have got smashed by Grimaldi and Mason on the inside.The defence on the inside should've been better but TPJ got baited hard and was pulled miles out of position and didn't even get close to Moses.

he had to defend him man in front of the cameras. But yeh think everyone agrees his brain snaps have cost us too much this season. It’s time to shop him around.Just seen that Moses came out and said he targeted TPJ. This comes after Ciraldud defended TPJ defence post game LOL.
