P-man 13,367 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Gus and Fritsch have been poor but everyone else is looking pretty sharp. We’re in this up to our necks.
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Best we’ve played all year. Which says a lot. Happy with that. 3

Mickey 4,777 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Gus poor, umps poor, Oskar trying to do a bit too much. Lovely work through the middle of the ground for Hunty's goal, and TMac was looking good early. 2
CHF 2,825 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Wow... the umps have given their whistles to the WC crowd 1 1

Gus must be injured. Two weeks he has looked out of it. Plus he isn’t playing on the ball which is suspicious. Luckily I think Jones has been very good on the ball 2

leave it to deever 17,621 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Minus goals via dumb frees and easy missed shots should be 4 goals up.
ThreeOneSix 954 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Fritsch is a turnover mechant. Brayshaw could do with a stint at Casey
Wadda We Sing 10,685 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 That was the 1st quarter I was expecting to see in the prelim......where has this team been..?!!
Red But Mostly Blue 4,632 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Where was this team in the prelim last year? We're still butchering it going forward (although lot less), but wow look at the hunger, the 2nd efforts, the bodies around the ball. That Clarry chain for the goal from Hunt was the best I've seen all year. If we can maintain this for (only) 3 more qtrs, and convert forward chances, we've got a real chance. What a sweet feeling it would be the beat the Eagles over there with our seconds! (no disrespect to the boys out there, I speak only from the perspective of our starting squad).
jules7 816 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Umpiring disgraceful, stop listening to the feral crowd 1

You need to pencil in 4-8 goals to West Coast from dodgy bias frees. So essentially we need to be a 10 goal better side to ensure a win.
Demon Dynasty 17,169 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Why Pruess is not playing is beyond me... i cant see any decent reason to suggest he would not be a huge asset up forward the way we bring the ball in tonight and as an assist to Maxy rucking up forward. The more i watch the more it needs to be Pruess for Smith. I'm not saying Smith won't play some sort of role later in the match and might even kick the winner or be involved in the winning play but Pruess offers the marking/rucking ability as well as a very difficult / unusual match up that would worry the Coaster's back 6 and set the cat amongst the pigeons. Jeffy would be happier too IMO and grow another leg with Andre throwing his weight around. 1
Wells 11 5,503 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Best we’ve looked all year I reckon. Tmac is back!!! Umpires truly truly frikn atrocious.., like our goal kicking. ww need Jeffry and Brayshaw in the game.
Pates 9,697 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Positives: best I’ve seen us play for a while. Negatives: still insanely wasteful going forward. Although this time is much more to do with inaccuracy. Tom, Petracca, Garlett really needed to nail their shots.
Superunknown 4,246 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Aliens will look back 200 million light years from now upon a scorched Earth, recovering a scarred but intact drive from the server upon which Demonland was co hosted and after reconstructing the data in zero time will be positively scratching their 16 heads with one of their 4 shhhlongs in outright bemusement at this Thompson-like stream of consciousness love it
Earl Hood 6,167 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Umpires making things difficult so far with separate interpretations of holding the ball for each team! 1

RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Baker has only had three touches, but two of them were absolutely sublime kicks on the run that hit difficult targets. If he can get it more often he'll be a weapon.
dees189227 12,527 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Jones and Tommy have started well. Even Gawn looks better. Brayshaw is falling over and fumbly. A good start. You would take a 1/4 time lead. Just hope we can keep it up and make use of our shot on goal. Petracca has been around long enough that he should have kicked that goal. Need to be better. Yes that goal on t e run helped but he needs to stand up.
Wadda We Sing 10,685 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 I think that Oliver/Hunt goal is the best since Jeff Farmers ...great stuff.
