Post Match Discussion - Round 9

[WERRIDEE 5,211]

WELL DONE DEES

PAST THE TEST OF NOT LOSING TO ANY BUM TEAMS FOR THE LAST 4 WEEKS.

THE NEXT 3 WEEKS ARE A TOUGHER TEST BUT I'M SURE WE WILL PASS IT WITH FLYING COLOURS.

GO THE MIGHTY DEES

I was constantly surprised as how easily Lever would spin out of tackles, sometimes amongst 3 Carlscum players.

... maybe a forward inside that skin.

would love it if he was also capable to swing forward, when warranted.

What a game that was. Even contribution across the field. Viney was pretty ineffective but will be much better for the run. For those saying that Hogan didn’t impact the game, I must insist that you look at our goals again. He must have directly assisted 4-5 which is a ridiculous number. 

He has become a supreme team player this year. Last year really transformed his from a boy to a man. Our best player wth Max so far this year.

We have momentum now. It’s a 50/50 game against Adelaide next week, win and we really set ourselves up for a good year.

 

Next match against the Crows is a big ask, after a month of wins.  We are still a little bit underdone yet, but hopefully Viney will be better for the run.

I can't see any changes from this lineup, unless there are injuries.

Who knew 3rd on the ladder even existed this far into a season?

[Young Blood 1,985]

Looking forward to Lever vs. Adelaide....

For some reason I’ve always been suspicious he’d go somewhere, I did think Collingwood and also Carlton. Don’t think his wife would let him again though!

Even wifey wouldn't mind 2 mill a year

Wonderful win ... we beat the four teams that we were expected to beat but what was good was that we are demonstrably improving as a team.

Hogan playing up the ground together with the purple patch being enjoyed by Gus Brayshaw has been wonderful to watch. Fritsch seems to be growing in confidence by the week. Kudos of course to so many others including Lever and Tom Mac who have contributed to the last four wins.

Lots to like and I will be disappointed if we cannot win the next three and turn at the bye at 8-3.

Go Dees

The QB game could be a 85k crowd if Pies win the next two. (mind you..hope they lose both).

ANB lost his grandad, hence the armband. Did him proud. Played some sort of game today. His kicking was excellent!

Very timely comment.  Mitch Robinson just took a gutsy mark for Brisbane (who are smashing the Dorks!!)

Robinson may have uttered the words; but have no doubt, it is what Carlton thinks about us...  narcissistic plonks.

[grazman 6,451]

I have only one thing to say after that.

Suck Arse Jed Lamb you toe rag!

[Big Demon 197]

Lever reads the play beautifully and is the best field kick in the team. Worth every dollar.

The quite fair criticism of our side is that they lost matches they should have won and that messed us up in September last year. We are now winning those games so we’ll done to everybody at the club.

 

[DemonOX 8,530]

Geez Gus was good today. 

24 possessions and 12 tackles. That’s 12 tackles what a great effort. 

Keep it up. 

[—coach— 3,466]

Ok with brisbane beating up on the hawks the question is, how the fluk did we loose to Hawthorn? 

[Demonland 64,946]

 

[Chook 14,502]

I just learned that today was our biggest ever win in the Royal Blue.

[ManDee 7,077]

Typical we will beat the Crows next week and will still not have beaten anyone above us. GO DEES

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

David Parkin gave Cripps votes today in the ABC Player of the Year award.

He was good, but that’s a joke.

Re Max going over the mark, I didn't quite catch it, but I thought he just jumped leaning forward and his feet did not go over the mark even when he landed.   If that is right I'm surprised that the rule prohibits that.

You will amazed to learn (ie, won't be amazed) that the rules do not say ANYTHING AT ALL about this situation.

16.3.2  Encroaching The Mark while Player is Kicking for Goal
If the Player standing The Mark encroaches The Mark whilst a Player is in the act of Kicking for Goal, the following shall apply:
      (a)  if a Goal is Kicked, the field Umpire shall signal ‘All Clear’ and a Goal shall be recorded; and
      (b)  if a Goal is not Kicked, the Player may elect to take another Kick, in which case the Player shall also be awarded a Fifty-Metre Penalty.

And what is "encroaching"? Not defined. Rules are silent.

 

The umps are refereeing the game to a set of rules that exist only in someone's head.

[Beetle 4,295]

I got so accustomed to the theme of today, I turned away in the last quarter as I drank my pint in the MCC and laughed without a care in the world, like I was a Hawthorn supporter...
