Remember that famous Shane Warne quote 'can't bowl can't throw'? Well Perth can't kick, mark or goal! Our skill errors were shocking and not even to little league standard!

Just on that last quote of your's Lucy I actually noticed there wasnt a Little League game on at half time at Lathlain Park yesterday, I must admit I hadnt seen that before in my 34 years of WAFL footy?!

Me too Beasley. Apparently it was because of school holidays. Did other games have little league games?

Positives very hard to find yesterday however Chance Bateman showed he’s still more than a handy player at WAFL level and took a nice pack grab on the grandstand wing to show the calf must be ok.

Clem Smith could never be accused of shirking a contest, goes in hard but needs to be wary he doesn’t cross the ever expanding line. Looks like his left foot needs a bit of work.

Leyendekkers is certainly worth persevering with, ditto Sinclair.

Tropiano backed up last weeks debut game with a solid performance.

Our kicking at goals was very poor yesterday and Bevo had a shocker in front of the sticks and was a touch selfish on a couple of occasions. As mentioned previously Stack was struggling and couldn’t register a score in the last qtr from 45 when we needed it.

O’Sullivan’s change in guernsey hasn’t halted his poor season, speaking of which it would be nice if the club could get all players with correct numbers in the budget. Maybe it was due to the Indigenous jumpers being used. Jarryd Morton was listed as 29 but wore 39. Jones was wearing 24 which was listed as Risol. Has Risol changed numbers too? We need him back desperately. Jones didn’t do much but he was no orphan there.

Edmonds was very quiet and didn’t inspire when he did get hold of the ball.

All is all a very average game but we were more average than SF and no face up to Subi next week……roll on 2015

Yep on the money and i also reckon Benny Hill music blaring over the loud speakers during the game wouldnt have sounded out of place either!

The other change that is needed is a new fitness regime.
Has anybody else noticed when our players get injured during the season they seem to spend a hell of a long time in recovery on the sidelines!

10 goals on a beautiful day for footy,pathetic.
I hope the new coach brings in an atrractive game capable of scoring 16 or 17 goals weekly and with it the players capable of carrying it out!
Watching these blokes is like watching an old fashioned under 10 game where everyone is chasing the ball to get a kick.

To be fair to Trevor Williams he has inherited a train wreck, problem is the tracks have never been laid properly under the previous coach so it's no surprise we derail when the heat goes on.

I think anyone who listens to Trevor Williams could not be anything but impressed and I hope he is retained in some capacity. He is an asset to the club. He knows how to speak to young men and get his message across. Maybe the colts job which we have failed in, even under McDud who had some success, how many have gone on from his tenure to become top line league footballers or AFL footballers? Not that many, can just about count them on one hand.

Williams has the runs on the board at colts level and I don't think any new senior coach would have a problem with him being senior assistant. And I will go one further and I know I will cop some stick for this, but if none of the high profile names mentioned show interest in the job then we could do a lot worse than give the job to Williams for two years. He's a good teacher and good communicator and I am pretty sure he is well respected among the player group.

Was interesting to see Macmahon was at the game yesterday, obviously no hard feelings..

Skills were shocking yesterday, we kept slipping over which didnt help.

Edmonds was terrible.

Even the captains skills were very average.

All in all another wasted year.

That's enough to make me puke.That bloke should be barred from the place.

It would be an absolute PR disaster to give Williams the senior job.

Nice bloke and all the rest but i think its fair to say the majority of supporters want to see a complete change within the coaching group from colts coach to senior assistants.

We need change and Trevor Williams has to be part of it.

Lets get this right and as hard as this may sound,appointing a sacked wooden spoon coach from another wafl club is not the way forward!

Are Perth supporters entitled to think that a new coach will have us playing finals next year? I don't think so this club has gone that far backwards in the last four years it's going to take a monumental effort from the new coach and a heap of new recruits.

In a word, NO. We need 3 or 4 topline recruits. A few former players returning would be a good start.
