My 3 word player analysis V Brisbane

Featured Replies

Posted

Jones - clean ball user

Vince - usually more creative

Hogan - consistently hard worker

Watts - creative and versatile

Petracca - brilliant in close

Viney - couldn't break free

Gawn - just a shadow

Oliver - creative ball user

Stretch - excellent 4 quarters

Kent - had little involvement

Newton - took his chances

Garland - better without pressure

Michie - little to enthuse

T. McDonald - kept opponent bereft

O. McDonald - far from convincing 

Hunt - one exciting run

Neal- Bullen - important one percenters

Bugg - 3 great quarters

Kennedy - needed more involvement

Garlett - regularly looked dangerous

Wagner - promising but flakey

Harmes - took his chances

 

 

 

Tough on Mitchie - thought he was pretty good.  Wasn't as enthused as you in relation to ANB and Newton.  Thought Watts was OK in the Ruck, but still question marks over his hardness at the contest.

Interesting selection dilemma with Tyson, Jetta and potentilly Dawes to come in.

Dawes!

I do not see anyone who would keep Jetta out in that backline today.

Tyson no problem if he is well will be playing in AS.

Dawes!

Happy to keep Watts rucking Old, or bring Pedo back in?

You are not alone grazman.

Hogan - Best on ground

Stretch - best young improver

Kent - seemed very uninterested

Garland - Lucky to play

Michie - A filler in

Gawn - Third time missing

O. McDonald - not best 22

Agree about Hogan, best on ground followed by Stretch and Watts

Hell no.  He kept his man to 5 touches and a single point  while racking up 18 disposals himself at 77.8%.  You can't knock that effort from a young defender. 

Michie is doing the role asked of him and will keep his place.

Roos gives new players 2 games minimum to cement place and find consistency.

We have good depth with B+ players next step 1or 2 Agraders and foundation is there

Billy Stretch was definitely best on for mine.  Ran all day and neat by foot especially. So 3 words for Billy are best on ground or runs all day!

I have a feeling you weren't at the game today.  

Jonathan Freeman kicked a goal on him by the way, after missing 2 easy ones.

Fumbled 3-4 times

Overran the footy twice.

Missed 3 crucial tackles.

Outbodied too easily.

He would be smashed in other games with this ...

I was indeed at the game.  Oscar had one job - to negate Schache.  He did that as well as you could possibly expect.  Meanwhile his brother was outbodied and outmarked repeatedly, yet nobody seems to be mentioning him at all.  Indeed, the comment from joeboy is "T. McDonald - kept opponent bereft" making me wonder if he doesn't have the two of them mixed up.

So you're complaining that a kid in his fourth game fumbled a couple of times and was overpowered by older, stronger athletes? 

Hunt - had at least 2 good 'run and carry' runs as I recall. Maybe 3?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
