Lewy injured again. Petrenko no good. Thurlow, no good, but from what I've seen, no loss

Pathetic...no rucks again and the midfield same old same old

See yah Godsy

Sorry guys I'm still fumimg over saturdays game . How the hell did they play that bad !!

cos we have a coach that makes easy / popular decisions - not hard / correct ones.

Dont forget to vote in the Eagles player of the year award .
Even though we lost we still put votes in

Im trying not to panic but Saturdays effort was dreadfull, a bit of millionaire attitude at times when we got on top of Westies. The midfield got spanked and we dont defend when the tide turns against us...some of the young fellows run ok when they have the ball but they are happy to stargaze and apply token tackles when they dont. OK new game plan will take a while, we missed Pup and Lewis etc but we still had the team to win. Allmond seems out of favour sadly, I think like Pup he had an indiscretion, but we never lose too many games when he plays...given our on ball division he would have been perfect to blanket Tuck who ran amok and instigated the comeback. I hope he gets back on track. Raka was ok, I think he may be better suited to back pocket whereas Templeton can offer more rebound from CHB.
Anyway we need to see some dramatic improvement this week in every area.
