Really want to go and quote all the wrist slashing, no idea posts from the first quarter. Good improvement boys

Single best quarter of the year so far.

Inclined to agree.

Petracca though. My god.

Think you'll find at the time, they were spot on the money.

We obviously reset well, because that was a smashing quarter. Just cut them up.

But we were awful for large parts of the first.

If Dawes can't hit a handball target from < 5 metres, can someone please tell me what use he is. Can't mark, can't kick, can't handpass.

Has done some great work since!

Just get the ball in his hands

[Binmans PA 26,743]

Not perfect, still error riddled, but the ball movement was far more decisive that quarter. If we can tidy up our ball use and decision making we'll blast them away.

Quote away, they had plenty of idea, we played terribly as you noted on the improved second qtr.

F me Wagner is having a mare!! 

 

Cut his hair! Bad timing

[Binmans PA 26,743]

Yeah, Truck looks amazing. A big game player. How was that goal?! So exciting.

[boydie 653]

Jones and Vince are good players, but they both try to do to much with the ball.

Dinky kicks, spears to high or to low, snaps over the man on the mark without moving away far enough for kicking.

[praha 10,575]

Pies selections are baffling. They went in too tall. That's ultimately where we're winning.

[Lord Ivanhoe 311]

"Open up another pop up" after Gawny's last goal. First time I have laughed at a Brian Taylor comment!

Probably the cleanest quarter of footy we have played for a while. Loving Trengove's decision making and clean hands

[DeViney 13]

Kent having his best game in a while too. Not so much for his pressure acts but presenting really well to link up at half forward for us

Mate, there is a difference between posts stating we haven't started well, as opposed to "Jones is a bit grader amd we need to trade our leadership group out" or "we haven't improved at all" 

While we field young and inexperienced teams, We will have great games and inconsistent quarters, we will have bad games with great quarters. Let's hope our inconsistent quarter is done, and the rest of the game we continue to play great. 

[Biffen 12,567]

The Auskick umpires are competent. Makes a change.

Correct. I doubt Roosy was blowing them kisses at the quarter time huddle. 

A much better second quarter. 

I wish Nichols and long and painful bout of gastro. The man is a fool. 

[dazzledavey36 49,823]

Tom Bugg kept Sidebottom to 1 disposal that qtr. Amazing stuff.

Gawn was HUUGGGEE!

Fair enough.

Although from memory, the only one who said we haven't improved at all is SWYL, which is pretty much par for the course.

Also Ben Reid limped off the ground with a knee injury.
