Single biggest issue I have with our side is their inability to stick tackles! It is infuriating! Go to the Storm for a training session on tackling for goodness sake!

That plus Bucks rushing in Henry who I thought was no where near AFL ready from what I have seen ( quite obvious )

While the Bulldogs are taking there time with no.1 draft pick Jamarra Ugle-Hagan who booted 5 goals against us in 3 Qts.

Big difference in approach and professionalism between the clubs atm

It's as if he was desperate to show Stephenson he can be replaced ( which backfired ) as stephenson was watching on from the stands. Coaching with emotion is a recipie for disaster...

Play the kids when they are ready to contribute. Why didnt Bevo rush in Ugle-Hagan even though he would most likely have contributed against us? Do you think Henry is ahead of Ugle-Hagan?

From the practice game it is obvious that the kid is not ready, why was Bucks so keen to throw him in the deep end? is his judgement that poor as to confess it was clearly the wrong choice and to admit post-match that Henry is not ready?

Who was Stephensons relacement? Henry or Ruscoue? Both were poor and Ruscuoe showed signs of softness which was the beginning of the end for Stephenson!

Why would Bucks continually select undersized soft players such as Thomas, Hoskin, Ruscoe etc if he was so hellbent on being physical and hard at the ball. Our balance is so out of wack it cant be corrected with minor changes because our quality players are also soft, Sidey, Pendles, Elliot etc

8 mins into the 1st Qtr, Buckley was forced to recall the troops and close the Gates to the Castle. The most concerning thing about this is that he had Achilles ( JDG ) roaming in the midfield.

Positive is I believe we just faced the Kingdom who will dethrone Richmond at the Collesium
