Possibly simply the difference in pace and pressure of Bigboys v magoos. He just seems to undo a lot of reasonable work with half baked disposals. A shame 2

TRIGON 4,821 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 The pattern of starting Jones (as wing) and then having him shuffle across to CHB, whilst the HBF moves to between CHB and the centre circle is very pretty; doesn’t do any good of course.
Devil In Disguise 2,284 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Why wasn't Hore selected? Hibberd should be dropped along with Oscar

I sometimes think (hope ...) that with these kinds of players it'll come with experience, but not the case so far with either of them.
frankie_d 1,471 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 It's interesting watching May. He's a good footballer 3 1
napster 191 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 JKH been good in close, played well so far apart from that one bad turn over. If you want to write him off for a mistake like that send most of this team on their way as well. 1

If you wish to delude yourself that everything will be fine because a year date will change on a calender that is your prerogative. Oscar into the ruck and HF? What possible benefit / message is that sending the rest of the playing group? I know what i would be thinking. Maybe we should rename ourselves the Melbourne Excuses? How about the DumbAzzes? The Rabbles? I’m as annoyed as you rusty about where we sit however your shotgun approach to the issue may not be as effective as you think in correcting the situation.
Gunna’s 2,107 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 How the [censored] is that advantage. Maynard stood still. It needs to be ‘flowing’
binman 44,824 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 8 minutes ago, stevethemanjordan said: You pick up only on his turnovers. I don't get it. Yes, he most definitely needs to tidy up his kicking at times but think about how many goals or opportunities at goal he has saved by either making a genuine killer spoil, intercept marking or out-bodying his opponent to mark. Lever has been very very good this game aside from a few kicking blunders. Yes he has done sone good tgings. As he should given his ability and paycheck. But a very, very good game? We must have different metrics for a defender. Has cost us 4 goals in s low scoring game we are down by 3 goals.
Dame Gaga 2,453 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Endeavour was promising in the first quarter, although the goal kicking was the same rubbish. Then it went back to handpasses to no one, gifting the opposition easy marks, not holding tackles. Varcoe did nothing until that ball fell in his hands courtesy of a bad Melbourne kick. Poor umpiring as per usual. Grrrrrrrrr.....?
chook fowler 19,773 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Hibberd, Melksham, Jones, Hunt - all bludging.

He most certainly hasn't cost us four. Maybe concentrate on Oscar. Did you see his turning circle just then? 1
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 Disgusting lack of pressure. I’m over watching us do the same [censored] every week.

McQueen 17,867 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 This is just too tragic to keep watching. I’m out.
