In: Robertson

Out: Newton

[demon heart 3]

morton, bartram and jones all must be dropped and put back in the seconds to learn how to dispose of the ball...

[Carn dees 108]

i was pretty happy with our game weve definetly got the competetive part covered.

A few ifs n buts and we have been in with a reall chance.

A few dodgy handballs and coughed up kiks but conditions were shocking, overall im reasonably happy.

[DemonDan... 77]

The frustrating part about todays game was that we had opportunities but just don't have the polish yet. It will just take time.

Yep, good call. Patience, patience. We'll have a new forward line soon, with prob only Miller to survive out of todays forwards, as a forward.

Watts wona maric robbo jurrah miller- now thats a forward line! ..how would Bailey feel after bragging about all the extra goal-kicking the boys had been doing.. tch tch.

Before anyone complains about our skills, understand that the bloke who is our Vice Captain has the worse skills in the AFL. Also happens to be our highest paid player.

And the kids are meant to look up to that?

Disgraceful.

[H_T 3,043]

Morton was very average tonight with disposal. Newton doesn't value his goalkicking at all. PJ couldn't get the ball to stick all night and neither could Jones. My best were Davey Frawley McLean and Moloney

And Sylvia stood up? :lol:

Yeah, actually he did.

He hit some targets with long penetrating kicks and layed some crunching tackles.

What did Bruce, the superstar vice captain do? Besides turn it over as usual.

Look forward to your answer....

[Mono 455]

Yeah, actually he (Sylvia) did.

The conditions were terrible, the skills poor. It was always going to be a battle of attrition. The fundamental skills errors undermined the team effort. On days like this, those misses at goal really hurt. At no time did Adelaide crack us open. At no time did they run away the game. The players fought it out. It was a pity that we had no made more of our opportunities in front of goal. If had one goal then a 16 point deficit becomes a 10 point deficit and then it is definitely game on.

The Ox05 sums it up well.

[Bobby McKenzie 2,385]

Haha amen.

Plus Bruce had 11 CONTESTED possessions. My 'nephew' went OK. Always in there trying his guts out.

[Kiss of Death 755]

Ouch

Thats true Mono, but the real giveaway is the crowd in the background!

Thanks Brock_Machine

What I really don't get about yesterdays game was Adelaide's willingness to slow the game down and constantly have two players back. In a way, I guess we can take it as somewhat of a compliment - I don't think Craig was confident they could beat us on the MCG allowing us to play our normal style of football. I might be getting ahead of myself, but I think we had more instances of skill and good decision making than Adelaide today. They were terrible. However, our inability to counter their extra men back hurt us. The way to counter a flood is to slowly but surely make your way in. We just kept bombing it in. You can't play like that anymore. Thankfully, they did the same thing, and what the game ended up being was a game between two sides that just didn't know how to break each others defensive tactics.

ABC has some Woman commentating - very irritating :angry:

Yes, as we all know, the only place for women in football is washing jumpers and working in the canteen! How dare the ABC let this woman rise above her station and commentate! Because as we all know, there has never been an irritating male commentator, and women should stay out of this line of work because clearly we are inferior!

[45HG 1,539]

I think she's great, certainly has a bit of Gerard Whately in the way she describes the game.

Calls it well, I recognise her voice from a sporting show but I can't place it (ironically I can picture her face too)

About time footy provided a commentary position for a female, after all, about 50% of fans are female - and not just that, fair go. If she's earnt her spot then good on her

Suzanna. Don't worry our form will improve.
