Acres can't get near it
In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

Bloody charity to Steven in front of goal

Re: game thread Hawks
Next lot of midfielders hopefully a lot better disposers of the ball than Armo, Steven and Geary or we're going nowhere!

Re: game thread Hawks
Armitage nearly having his head kicked off was another example of our shitful treatment.

Acres is having a howler.
Not the lone ranger.

He's not good enough at this stage in his career, but hasn't dropped his head and is showing good signs still.bigred wrote:Acres is having a howler.

I love Jack's endeavour, but his disposal generally appalling.whiskers3614 wrote:Next lot of midfielders hopefully a lot better disposers of the ball than Armo, Steven and Geary or we're going nowhere!
We need better disposal from our key midfielders.
Armo is not a lot better.

Re: game thread Hawks
When the opposition score behind we don't bring the ball in quickly to get jump (lazy). Everyone gather in the middle (back to player kicking out) then try and lead into hawks webSMS wrote:Whats with the kick ins??? Pathetic!!!
We seem to worried about getting in front no boys stay behind!! Dont win!!! {**}*}*}%{%{

Re: game thread Hawks
Blakes done some good things but was screaming at him due to a few non real effors one on Gibson was very poor... just made no effort to preusure him when he took his kick. that lead to a goal.magnifisaint wrote:Acres can't get near it

Re: game thread Hawks
Only young kids so I am not worried about it but Acres and Sinclair both very quiet.
Overall we are doing ok. We went in to our shell a bit and they ran over the top of our hesitation.
Id like to see us be more attacking. A few times Shenton could have attacked the corridor but turned back and played it safe. We are playing a bit safe overall.
Hopefully we can have one good attacking quarter.

Re: game thread Hawks
That poor kick in by us opened the floodgates for the Hawks.
Overall we are not to bad. ..but we just have taken too many poor options that have cost us goals and allowed the Hawks a few. That is the difference.

Re: game thread Hawks
This game is too frantic, we make enough errors in a slow game.
We have 0 answers to getting out of back 50. Something needs to change because if it carries on like that last10 minutes it's another 100 point loss.
If Steven had kicked that goal we were within 10, not long later it's 40.

Re: game thread Hawks
yes we go into reverse too easily. First quarter we were more ditect and looked the better for it.Con Gorozidis wrote:Only young kids so I am not worried about it but Acres and Sinclair both very quiet.

2nd we started go hesitate more and go backwards more.
