Re: Power V Bulldogs - Round 17, Sat 6/7/24 Adelaide Oval 1:45PM AEST
Coffield is a watch for me.
I kind of expected more, but granted he still hasn't had a good run at it yet and probably shouldn't have played today all things considered.
I just worry about his intensity and pace. The game seems to demand both of these assets and he's one of a few we have that have neither.
Can he play wing?
I get he just needs to 'PLAY' at this point, but I hope we can see some sort of return soon.

It wasn't even a tackle or a spoil. It was like he wanted to be concussed, as that was the only thing that was ever going to come from the incident.
TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

He got caught in two minds and made the worst choice.
He's so raw still. Our backline really is held together by sticky tape.
Did someone say Jones is our most important player in here recently.
They might be right

I’m all chips in on Barass. If we get a late first and something for Baz, I’d gladly hand over the first to WCE and pay big bucks to Barass. We simply need another proven KPD.

While we continue to play Croft forward in the VFL.....

Hopefully it is part of a bigger plan, but surely playing him and Buss together in defence would be better longer term for continuity etc.
More of an In Bruges guy?

Keath and Gardy have been out also yet continue to play him forward. He is another tall that is a poor set shot I'm not sure what the plan is to be honest.

Fingers crossed once he gets continuity he can add to our ability to rebound because its Bailey Dale or bust atm.

Shattered by our loss today. Bevo is clearly looking for answers.

I'm sure others have said it too but I've been singing this for a while. As soon as I saw he was out injured I knew today would be a hard slog.
However, what I wasn't expecting was the pathetic performance from our mids. We would've lost today even if Jones had played. Probably just a lesser margin.
I'm sick of our lazy mids.

45 disposals between Connor Rozee (18), Zak Butters (14) & Ollie Wines (13) in Q1
Most by a trio in a quarter this century
