Go Jack!!

Posted

comparing our game to the other game on tonight, its like they are 2 different sports

I agree, I have them both on here. Intensity is worlds apart

Posted (edited)

Jack Watts proves he is our best player by doing what no one else in our team could do! Goal of the year!

Jordie is playing Ablett better than most players have all year.

Or, do you not even know who he is playing on?

Can't kick, can't handball unless its to a player hotter than himself and lacks composure but yeah... He can tag a player ill give him that.

Is it McKenzie?

Also, for help, where is Davis playing? Forward? Does that mean Watts is in defence?

Yes to both.

so far Trengoves best game in 2 years

But how frustrating that the 'captain' Grimes misses a shot from 15 metres out to put us in front

My god. Tony Shaw is getting even worse. I've never been this frustrated with commentary

As soon as Jordie goes off Ablett, Nicho goes onto him and Ablett racks the ball up at will - and HURTS us!!

Mate, no disrespect, but you have no idea about football if you believe McKenzie is having a bad game tonight.

He is playing on the best midfielder in the history of the game and shutting him out, all the touches Ablett has are when Jordie is having a breather.

Keep in mind, I am McKenzies biggest critic, but credit where credie is due, Jordie has been one of our most important players tonight.

That was my 2nd favourite quarter of the year.

Year they got a run on, but I can't remember is regaining composite like that at any other stage. We changed or structure and style, stopped pushing so hard and started holding the ball. Released players for the switch.

We actually played smart football. And if we have kicked straight at the end we'd be in front*.

*the same goes for them in the first half of the quarter.

But Watts has kicked two goals...is he playing HBF?

Yep. His first goal came before he was moved back where is now playing as the loose man. His second goal he had acres of space running off HB. Quality finish after almost fluffing it.

Nicho is the worst player I've ever seen on a Melbourne list.

hard to argue with

Loving the stuff from our younger boys:

Viney (11 touches in first Q)

Kent (showing up Blease)

Clisby (great offensively)

Strauss (Great offensively and has laid some good tackles)

Tappy (attacks every contest and is a good lead up player)

Watts (Watts is finally a man - he now has balls)

We are spreading in the middle and taking the game on.

The umpires are a joke tho and the commentators are trying to find any excuse possible to explain why Ablett doesn't have 30 touches already.

have you ever listened to BT? absolute [censored]

That was the arsiest goal of the year from Watts. Still great composure to slot it from 50 under pressure.

Loved Kent's attack on the ball. Might get a game on the sidelines, but well worth it.

Jack Viney is great in close and frees up Jones a little.

Jordie is doing a great job tagging.

All in all, it could be worse.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
