Daicos is trying hard, and slightly better disposal and he prob score a 50+ and it's a non issue (it is worrying how poor it is though). Having said that, he has pulled out of contests a few times, and can't lay a tackle to save himself. That can be covered when the rest of the team is playing well, but they aren't, and his deficiencies are made all the more glaring.

He can still salvage a good score from here though.
Poor disposals, last year he is on 60+SC points. Problem is he doesn't look like he is in the game. Dare I say it ....looks slow.

Be funny if his score is not needed for the second week.

Titch has been huge as has Pendelbury. JDG missing again after a good first term.

A big effort need by the pies to stay in this, looking like the lions will run away with this game and the PIES season is done and dusted.

The stats are really ugly from the 2nd Quarter.

Lions I50 22
Pies I50 2

My goodness...could be a blowout by 50 points.

How can this go so wrong so quickly for the club. What went wrong in pre-season.?

I do think he was a little harshly scored. Kick in to JDG, and the kick to McInnes where he kicked a goal, were both marked as ineffective when in reality they were kicks that only those players could get to and they did.

Probably played four top 8 sides. Arguably 2-3 top 4 sides. Tough draw so far.

Does look ominous though….

Sydney have had a tougher first 3 rounds arguably. Melbourne into Collingwood and into Essendon who we always seem to struggle against.
