Just had a look at the stats how the fark can you constantly week after week have around 100 less disposals than the opposition and also lay less tackles if you are having a fair dinkum crack?
Yesterday was just a pitiful 35 tackles laid.

35 tackles in a whole game! That is absolutely disgraceful. Remember a couple of years ago when Ryan Davis laid 20 tackles in a game against Subiaco. Having watched 4 quarters of the Sharks playing kick to kick under very little pressure, it doesn't really surprise me I guess. Where can that intensity be rediscovered next sunday??. Apart from a few exceptions the players appear to have lost their appetite for the contest. I saw the video of Harding's match review and the impression I got was that he really doesn't give a toss any more either. He is probably out of there next Sunday anyway.

Harding showed no appetite for the job yesterday imo....after basically unleashing a bucket load of profanity last week this week was all keep calm she'll be right jack. Who can blame him though, these players no longer respond to his message, they are too busy turning on team mates behind each other's backs...said it yesterday and will say it again...disgusting to witness the lack of fellowship in this team. One of my faves is also the biggest offender, time to pull ur head in mate, you are far from elite

I suspect that I know the player you are talking about; perhaps a stint in the reserves and assuming Daniels is available to play replaced by him.

The last time you blokes were talking about closing the doors etc was v Claremont a couple of months ago and the very next week you dismantled Peel. Remember you are playing WP who have been ordinary during the same time but we looked good yesterday though. As Bill said in the rooms, we can be 3 from the last 12 or 2 from the last 3, which one is more of a positive approach ???

I think Simmo and Davo share the record and they got into the high teens in tackles a few times

Both were top players mate who also had that mongrel in them to put some physical pressure on the opposition...not sure who is capable or more to the point even wants to lay 10 bone jarring tackles let alone 20 in the current side!
We laid more tackles than the opposition in only 3 games out of the 20 this season!
