GAME DAY - ROUND 4

[whatwhat say what 22,756]

That was an absolutely pathetic quarter

Sunny side of the street: only 8 points behind

Rainy side: we have no reliable route to goal

[Jaded No More 68,915]

And Harmes rucking is a joke. I know we don’t want to go tall in the wet but the whole time Gawn was on the bench was an utter shambles in the middle. 

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Not worried.  It's 8 points.  Well and truly in the game.

[GCDee 3,199]

Lever is simply just going to the wrong position three quarters of the time and never effects the contest. 

 

Really concerning how much he isn't clicking 

[Uncle Fester 2,848]

Do we actually have a backline coach?

[Ethan Tremblay 30,861]

Our forwards playing in front of their man for once would be a good start. 

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,395]

No more honourable losses please.

I couldn't believe that. Nothing surprises me anymore with Goodwin, the bloke is completely out of his depth as a coach. It is just stupid to have Harmes go up against McKovey.

What is Melbournes strategy!!

You’re not worried we let them kick the last 5 goals? I wish I had your confidence.

[Mazer Rackham 14,971]

Our shooting for goal is a footballing crime

Playing in the same postcode for that matter.

No. This would be a good game to pinch because we have played like sh*t. All that matters is we get the W. But hopefully we concentrate on our weaknesses during the next week after stealing those wins.

positives, Fritsch

[SFebes 4,884]

If we can’t beat a middle of the road Geelong or hawthorn then we haven’t improved. We’ve beat a dismal bears and Roos 

[Jaded No More 68,915]

I don’t want to jinx it but Oscar has been A grade. 

We have done a good job on Mitchell. I think Jonesy is on him. However we are still losing the clearances which is not helping the panic handball to 12 Hawthorn players versus 1 Melbourne player. 

[DSP 1,488]

Stop the horrendous hanball and fumbling and we are back in it.

 

Some awareness running with ball would also help.

They kicked 4 goals for the term, we kicked 4 points.  They just took their chances, we didn't.  Plenty of time to fix things up.

You're right, we are in it for sure but i think it's frustrating because we should be winning? kicking behind after behind, making poor decisions inside 50... i just hope we tidy up and win this because we really cannot afford to lose 

[64" 97]

Totally disorganised right round the ground.Disposal is a disgrace

[Lord Travis 10,730]

Goodwin being shown up again today. Organization and strategy with ball today has been atrocious. I wish we had a coach who could organize this group properly because it’s a top 4 team playing below their ability at present.

[loges 6,767]

Quite a lot of players can lift,besides bugg Harmes and Petracca

Not so sure mate, need a massive 2nd half to win this

[DaveyJones'sLocker 647]

Everyone is banging on about bugg but melksham has his 7th straight point for the year.

Goodwin is being badly ourcoached. They have an extra around the ball when Gawn is rucking due to him winning most. They even have two extra when it is inside 50. We sit out loose players just 20m away and they kick over them and we they are away. We cannot go anywhere with him at the helm.
