GAME DAY, ROUND 2, 2015

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

I love our team!!

[Jaded No More 67,641]

Really disappointing to give one straight back to them.

Need to get this quarter finished with. It hasn't been our best.

[Gorgoroth 12,702]

Ten less inside 50's

Need to get running and spreading like we did early and last week.

[DubDee 24,352]

Viney and t mac fighting it out for bog with hogan not far behind

The game is definitely not in the bag but we are looking pretty good overall

[titan_uranus 24,595]

Pity we gave one back to them, but at least we won the quarter.

Not sure whether GWS got better or we got comfortable/lazy/worse, but the inside 50s dried up after about 10 minutes in.

[red and blue forever 893]

Half Time

Melbourne 7.3.45

GWS 2.6.18

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

Newton is the true definition of plug and play. Looks like his been here for years

[red and blue forever 893]

Macca havin a blinder.

[What 18,810]

Nathan Jones having his worst game in memory and we still have a handy lead, good signs

[Webber 10,433]

Very ordinary quarter, lost our intensity at the ball, and stopped running past the ball carrier. We can't defend this lead playing that way, so need to hunt and attack. Odds only slightly our way now, if at all.

Yes it was very ordinary but at least this years ordinary quarter we still won! Hopefully we can come back out after half time and get back into it!

worried about this second half.

Bit harsh I would have thought. The last half of the second quarter was ordinary but we've dominated them up to that point.

Half time came at the right time for us and we can reboot and reload for the second half.

I get the feeling we were a little lethargic there. Just a step slower to the contest than we were in the first and it showed. Hopefully we can come out after the break and put them away once and for all.

[Dee-licious 1,947]

Hopefully that is our down quarter and now we lift. Jones and Newton have many more gears left in them today. Same with Tyson. Viney having a really great game. 3rd year break out?

[SaberFang 7,151]

Need to come out after HT with the same flare we eased ourselves into during Q1.

If we can start the next half with 2 quick goals I'll feel a bit more confident. Win the next quarter though and I'd say the game is ours to lose.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

We just need to make every opportunity count. They don't look nearly as damaging as we are but we can let them back in if we don't put our foot on their throat.

[Bleeds_Red_&_Blue 172]

Would love Hogan to kick 10

[barneymfc 152]

tom mc bog by a mile

[Bang Bang Bang 5,765]

Don't know who has a more punchable head out of Toby Greene and McCarthy.

[red and blue forever 893]

tom mc bog by a mile

first chance monday he is straight into my dreamteam side.....

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Don't know who has a more punchable head out of Toby Greene and McCarthy.

And he loves to duck the head and drop the knees looking for free kicks does Toby Greene. Annoys the hell out of me.

[McQueen 17,864]

It's a pretty even contribution from most of the boys but the backmen are doing a sterling job, as is Jamar.

The spread dropped off a bit in that second term as well.

If we can get an overall collective lift we will be the better team.

[Gorgoroth 12,702]

Need to get Jones and Tyson into the game, but as importantly get H running and get the ball to him in space.

With Tomlinson out of the game when their resting Mumford we need to make sure we dominate the hit outs and clearances.

Kent and Jeffy need to get in their bikes early in the quarter and pressure pressure pressure.

[Ted Lasso 18,780]

Jack Viney has taken a massive step forward in his development, looks a class above to me and his tackling is amazing
