leave it to deever 17,614 Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Its a long cold train trip home on this miserable sydney day. My take today was a premier defence versus a mediocre backline. Clearly without the gawn factor we cant win so the wet definately suited sydney. The hogan factor is missing in the wet as well. Not sure what has happened to vanders....he used to be twice the player of late. On the positive Petracca is going to be a star for us.
defuture15 902 Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 I suppose that its a game of structures but why not put bigger bodies in the middle? Hogan, dawes, Vandenberg would have been helpful in the middle against our bigger stronger opponents. I thought that hunt and wagner were good. Im expecting oscar to be better than his brother when their careers are done.

I just want the team to take the next jump. It continues to not do so... a 9 goal loss in those conditions is horrible but i am sure many will use the "Kids" excuse again. No leadership apart from Bernie & even he lost it

R the game now is to finish above 12th so that we 'win' the trade with gc17 in terms of 'points value' to bring in oliver / weideman last year instead of having a first round pick this year. Ithink the eight was gone after dons loss and cemented by port game. The 8 I Reckon IS sealed. We will be there next year....iM sure of IT.

davo 209 Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 We were outmuscled by a stronger much more mature team in the wet, would have been a different story if it ever stopped raining in [censored] Sydney!!

But anyone surprised about a young side running out of legs after a 6 day break playing the best contested team in the league in the wet at home and gunning for top spot needs to step away from the keyboard. We're not there yet. im afraid this will become more common in the 2nd half of the season with such a young squad
Gator 18,053 Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 A 10 goal drubbing in the wet means a few put the cue in the rack. But when one remembers we're the youngest and most inexperienced running around it gives some reason to the performance. Young teams find it hard to run out games in the wet. That's not an excuse that's fact. I liked my boy Wattsy's game again. Twice now he's been good in the wet, which is exceedingly unlike Jack. He really has improved his contested footy. I can't believe some posters potting Hogan. It's BS that he gave no second efforts. Conditions couldn't be worse for a hulking key forward like Hogan, but he finished with 17 disposals and 5 marks while competing in the air all day. Any idea how tiring is to do that in the wet ?

junk 342 Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 We just don't have the cattle and enough experienced players. Apart from playing on grounds and against certain teams,wet tracks seem to be another one of our hoodoo's.

It highlights we are still slim on experienced players
Return to Glory 8,518 Posted June 19, 2016 Posted June 19, 2016 Went a 2011 Pepperjack Shiraz and it's taken the edge off. Yeah, the boys played pretty well now that I reflect upon it. Go Dees!
