Re: Match thread v Eagles
Win, lose or draw I like the style we are playing today.
Going for the corridor. Quick movement. Tackling properly.
None of this circular boundary crap of the last month. Carlisle an absolute gun.
We have 21 footballers today (plus Mav Weller).

Re: Match thread v Eagles
We're playing alright, just letting them score way too easily...

Re: Match thread v Eagles
I think this game is highlighting the opinion that we only like to run hard one way.

Re: Match thread v Eagles
We are actually trying today.
So I dont want to hear the 'no effort' excuse if we lose.

Getting a little messy now.

Brown is so slow. Makes Kennedy look like a greyhound in speed. Pies weren't stupid to make the call on him after 2016.

We are letting a team that is widely considered a joke when they travel to Melbourne walk right over us.

Good stopper but very one dimensional.
