As I’ve been saying for months we are the unfittest and laziest team in the comp. No one willing or able to do the hard stuff

I’m not fully convinced on Rutten but I don’t think it serves us well by chopping him after a year and a bit.Eagles2014 wrote:Jim05 wrote:Parish’s effort just as bad.whufc wrote:Wow David King's footage on AFL360 from of Dylan Shiels effort is pretty bloody damning.

I know in previous posts Jim you seem to stick up for Rutten and put it all on the players.
But surely the coach is responsible for this, he either takes action and drops these big names for this complete lack of effort, or he needs to go himself if he can’t motivate them

True but stats are a bit skewed by Smith and Heppell who are near the end of their careers and not much chop and Hobbs who was making his debut. Three of them are also at their second club for one reason or another and weren’t living up to their draft position.Spargo wrote:12 first round draft picks in that loss to Freo last week.

I do think our list balance is way out though and we have a stack of holes in the list.
We are sitting about where I thought we would be and we need to keep hitting the draft and free agency and hopefully weed out some more that aren’t up to it.
Player development needs a complete overhaul too

Missing 5 of our top 10 B&F’s from last year and Jake is probably the most critical out of that lotLightning McQueen wrote:Jim05 wrote:True but stats are a bit skewed by Smith and Heppell who are near the end of their careers and not much chop and Hobbs who was making his debut.

I don’t think Rutten is the man for the job but that playing group of the crows have made names for themselves with their respective roles in the AFL circles.
You’re missing Jake Stringer big time, he’s one of the most improved players of the AFL in my opinion, I thought he was a dud for so long at the Dogs but geez he can turn a game on its head whether he’s in the middle or up forward, I love seeing players adding another string to their bow, especially at their 2nd club.

Heppell gets a bit of it because he is playing in the easiest spot on the ground. He gives his all but his foot injury has pretty much taken his best years away. He has never been real quick but he has lost another years and his kicking is clearly hampered by his foot. A lot of little dinky, nothing kicksLightning McQueen wrote:Yeah, that’ll hurt. I do feel that something will click at some stage and you’ll finish a couple of games out, you have some prime movers, a developing ruckman and a 65+ goal forward in your mix, it would be good to see Heppell play a forward role before he hangs them up, he’s getting enough of it lately but I think he’d be an awkward match up for a defender, could be very Fyfish
