GAME DAY - Round 15

[P-man 13,239]

Decent game of rugby so far.

[JV7 2,339]

The wheel started to turn in the later part of that quarter.. Confident we'll run over them

[Young Dee 1,303]

Hogan 2 shockers in a row. Isn't getting near it.

Disappointing efforts by the forwards. Really poor.

If we want to win we need aggression.

The mids need to take advantage of Gawn

Our forwards need to lift big time - Hogan, Dawes, Garrett, Watts (we need some people to step up and kick some goals)

[SaberFang 7,141]

In positive reflection, half time last night was relatively similar. Tigers broke away comfortably after that though.

[Moonshadow 16,347]

Cold as a witch's teet here. BBO keeps pining after Biff. Needs to harden up. He's onto the hot chocolates already. One of the poorest half's of footy I've ever seen.

[Redleg 37,909]

Hulk for 5

Has to get a possession first.

[Forest Demon 4,681]

Frustrating half. We seem the better side but keep bombing it due to conditions to where we are outnumbered.

[Demon Disciple 11,082]

Garlett hasn't had much of the ball, but i love that he's had 7 tackles. Trying to influence the game when not in possession.

[barneymfc 152]

It's a shocking game of football.

It's not wet, it's just two very poor sides.

dead right andrewwe are so bad hogan should start earning his keep ,young big head,

[Demon Disciple 11,082]

Disappointing efforts by the forwards. Really poor.

Sure they haven't been flash, but our delivery (even on a [censored] day like today) could be sooooo much better.

That and manning up their loose players' for a change.

He, Brayshaw and Viney seem to be the only ones who actually know how to tackle

[McQueen 17,864]

So many wasted entries. If we tidy that up we'll be on the way to a win.

Hogan needs to get his hands on the ball. He's having a shocker.

[Perago Validus 164]

Underrated for us this season, in the top 5 for the league for inside 50 tackles this season.

[stevethemanjordan 6,952]

Lift our intensity by 20% for the remainder of the game and start moving the ball smarter and we will blow them away.

[beelzebub 22,269]

The umpires aren't the worse thing about this match.

far from it

Worst thing is Ess ease at marking across half back..

[praha 10,315]

Bombers lack confidence. Our forward delivery is rushed and shocking. Should be a 5 goal win. Our forwards are actually putting on a lot of pressure but it's really congested.

This will end up an inverse of last year's result. Essendon dominate everything except the scoreboard but end up losing by a point.

This year it's our turn.

Sometimes you're a windscreen. Sometimes you're an insect. Gotta do as much damage while you're windscreen.

[Gorgoroth 12,337]

Isolate Hogan and Garlett in the goal square with every one else around the 50 at centre bounces, we are winning most but bombing to a pack where Essendon are usually winning it. Give these two a shot at it.

[Demon Disciple 11,082]

Has to get a possession first.

Has 3 so far. What's JKH done?...........Oh that's right.

Would love to have him on at the moment though, another small crumbing the inevitable ground ball in our forward line.

Maybe a little too soon, but would anyone else be tempted to sub Hogan now and bring on JKH??? Bold and risky move, probably too much so for Roos.

[red_and_blue 6]

Worried what impact last week's Darwin heat and humidity will have our ability to run this one out.

[Return to Glory 7,779]

Bombers lack confidence. Our forward delivery is rushed and shocking. Should be a 5 goal win.

The only thing I'm worried about is that we have a happy knack of helping teams regain confidence.

[Ethan Tremblay 28,470]

Chris Dawes throwing a player without the ball down to the ground.

Legit 50. Dumb Dawes.

He was standing in front of him while he was on the mark.

[Demonic Faves 39]

Don't get the love for harmes game. 7 touches for inside mid in carp weather. Only 3 tackles. Has to lift.

[praha 10,315]

Worried what impact last week's Darwin heat and humidity will have our ability to run this one out.

Bombers are a player down. We have been flat all day and should run over them. We rested in the last quarter last week anyway so we should be fine

[Little Goffy 12,727]

Both teams have a disposal efficiency below 50%?

This could be one of those feedback loops that breaks computers.

"We are more likely to get it if an opponent is kicking it... therefore it makes sense to kick it to one of them whenever we can".

Maybe the players should be instructed to actively target the other team, because that way it will end up with us more...

Ugh.
