GAME DAY

Featured Replies

here we go another floggin coming up, cant kick!!!

 

We're breaking down at half-forward (again). Bombing a little indiscriminately.

Cale Morton just decided to dribble a shot along the ground from 30 metres, without taking a drop punt.

Malthouse hates the fact that we're allowing West Coast to have a loose man wherever they want (moving between their defence and at the contest). He says we can't win if we keep this up.

 

next weeks changes

OUT- MORTON

another day of footy ruined, so over it


Bartram misses everything.

13 inside 50s for 1.2

They've had 9 for 3.2

This is playing out a bit like last week. And I just do not understand our fascination with a man behind the ball. It's killing us as we try to go forward. Ridiculous.

Also kicking efficiency is running at 51%. Skills just not where they should be.

Morton and batram.... Dear oh dear what a sad sight. Terrible Terrible players. Single handedly killing the while teams confidence.

How can any Afl team have such bad skills?

Howe is a gun.

 

less issue with his skills, more this....Morton - WORST TEAMMATE

Can't see the game as I'm stuck doing a bloody feasibility report - can you elaborate?


Malthouse thinks we've been 'fantastic': good pressure but terrible finishing (e.g. Morton and Bartram. They should have been goals and we should be in front).

Also noted that West Coast's defence has had more of the ball than their midfield (i.e. their loose man is chopping off our forward movements as we break down at half forward).

Hmmm... sack Bailey?

Malthouse now wondering why we have spare numbers on the opposite wing to where the ball is. 90 metres away, making no space that is relevant, and allowing West Coast to have extra numbers at the contest.

Goal to Kerr meanwhile. 27 to 8.

We are BAD , SAD and full of turnover specialists

Honestly though, it makes no sense to me why we do the loose man thing.

The only thing that makes marginal sense to me, is too far fetched... but stick with me a moment.

Maybe it's a development tactic? Our defense is pretty steady, the year is a write off - develop for the future by forcing our forwards to compete outnumbered, and our midfield to have it tough trying to deliver the ball in forward.

Theoretically, if we then play without a loose man down back, everything should work a lot easier.

The loose man in defense development tactic worked out for Jack Watts...

Ok, that's just too ridiculous for even me... but I can't fathom another reason.

Anybody else got something?

I'm at a loss.


what is wrong with us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????? we are a terrible team.

All west coast had to do was clean up their clearances and they were going to run away with this

Our skills are deplorable, and defensive pressure rubbish and as for protecting team mates with the ball.. don't bother.

The cue is in the rack already by the Melbourne players and has been for 3 weeks. We will barely beat Port playing like this.

Morton..... wow is really battling early.

YEP ONE MORE

WE HAVE A BAD SQUAD

Ok, thanks for the input...

but that isn't responsible for tactics.

We are so weak in a defensive contest. As has been said so many times our older players are just so far off the pace. Davey, Dunn in particular from a defensive contest perspective, so hard to watch.

Training drill. There are so many loose WCE players in our fwd line its F******. Why do we play 10m off our man in defence?????

Why can't we pick players up. In't s not a hard game. Our players are so STUPID.

Their attack on the footy is under 18s like.

anyone have any coaching ideas?? anything......!
