Re: Match thread
We've gifted them too many goals already. Even Roo.

Needs to be thought about. Those who doubt the draft need to watch Patton play nowadays.

Re: Match thread
Been happening all season -all the forwards are flying for marks, including the smalls- wake up Richo. Midfield need to get first touch and take a few risks..just playing too safe unlike last week.

Re: Match thread
If we could kick straight for goal, we'd win the flag. Unfortunately we can't hit the side of a barn most times. How demoralising to continually see easy shots misses. Late in the term we let them in again. Roo, Newnes and Steven all missed straightforward shots.

Re: Match thread
That's just footy 2017-style. The concept of dropping the ball seems to have been discarded by the umps. GWS have developed a strategy based on dropping the ball when tackled. I noticed it against the Dogs and this week too. The AFL will need to take a close look at it.skeptic wrote:Not loving the umpiring...

Re: Match thread
He hasn't been able to kick for the last 7 years so I doubt it will suddenly happen tonight. He is good at getting the ball though, pity his disposal is woeful.ChrisRyanSaints wrote:Dangerfield selwood ablett sloane fyfe franklin hannebry pendlebury sidebttom wouldve ALL KICKED THAT OUR BEST AND MOST TREASURED STEVEN!!??!?!?

Re: Match thread
made them work hard but then gave them 2 very easy ones.
Cant afford to do that!
Webster and Roberton seem to both cough up one each per game...
Is there a better person to bring the ball in from points??

Re: Match thread
Longer's been impressive in the ruck that quarter. Acres should watch Steele and Geary and learn how to tackle. Roo seems off. All in all doing well with our pressure, messing up with conversion. Need to keep this intensity up,

I hate them too. A completely ersatz team with bugger all supporters, but they've been gifted enough talent to dominate the comp for a decade or more.fugazi wrote:Having a real crack against the Droid Army.

Re: Match thread
In the game, but poor in too many areas.
Forwards flying for the same ball, kicking out of defence horrible late. Kicking for goal as usual. We lack class/silk, we are 2 class mids off being a top 4 side, but do we find them ?
This is a very winnable game , we just need some poise, but where will it come from?

Re: Match thread
Good atmosphere Bruce hitting packs hard don't like this kick it to roo obsession. Steven brilliant as usual. Good pressure and tackling longer doing well gws on he break dangerous carslisle looks close to a breakout game for us Webster needs to eliminate clangers. Good even performance but need a few to lift to win it

Is Koby in trouble for a "sling" tackle, as described by the Filth President on Fox
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?
