GAME DAY - Round 9

Honestly, the score's about right. We'll kick away.

 

We have to stop [censored] around with the ball is50. 

Just kick the bloody goals.  

We are trying to play flashy football and its frustrating.

i'm sorry but Oscar Mcdonald just isn't ready for AFL footy yet. Give him time in the VFL. Why we don't have Dunn in, i'm not sure.

Either Roos is looking forward or he doesnt rate Dunn. I feel for Dunn hes.... better than Omac and garland.

we haven't looked like getting out of First gear and we are 30 odd points up. We can play much better, but [censored] me, our backline is a rabble. Big priority this off season.

Jeez OMac is a very ordinary player.. 

Dont rate him at all.

He might become decent but he's clearly not ready, baffling selection.

Petracca doesn't have the best footy instincts at the moment, he's physically capable but just needs to improve the finer points of the game.

 

I really wish our forwards would just be more selfish sometimes and pepper on goals. There's a time and a place for selfless footy, and it's not against this mob.

If you have a shot, back yourself!

We're over-sharing the bloody pill when it should be obvious to attack the goals. Should've kicked at least 4 more goals due to this in that qtr alone.

Who is responsible for telling him to play on at all costs no matter what?

Matheison loves to throw his head back feigning for a free doesn't he.

Just a bloody cheat.....but it takes gullible maggots for him to do it

So all I know is the score, and the Demonland commentary. I gather we're terrible, no hope of making the finals ever again, and this will go down as the worst 10 goal victory of all time. Does that about sum it up?

You missed "Roos is being out-coached again".

I like Wagner.

Does the hard things well...but then turns it over way too many times.

Your sarcasm can wear thin. 

Uninspiring but scoreboard is about right. Wind makes kicking tough and you can tell. We're a 14-15 goal better side but in these conditions anywhere between 5-10 goals.


We seem to play according to our opposition levels.

Imagine if we played this rabble of a team with the game we brought against the dogs last week

or the Roo's at the start .We would be 10 goals in front by now.

As a team we are so poor with our decision making from a mark.

I've mentioned this many times but we drift off the line too easily and don't get far enough behind the mark. Often we are forced to kick under pressure from a free kick which is just incredible.

Well 2 years ago it was us playing like Brisbane.

A lot of players out today

Fix our defence and get a second ruck who can play up fwd and we will be definate finals players.

If you listen to the usual's then, yes, but you know better Nasher.

Believe it or not, it is possible to win easily and not play well...

We are clearly a class or two above Brisbane but some of the decision making has been nothing short of baffling. Skills are up a bit on last week though.
