GAMEDAY: Rd 06 v Gold Coast

[KingDingAling 3,757]

The amount of play we have had this quarter we should be 7-8 goals up.

[Jaded No More 68,915]

Another game where we dominate for periods. Misuse the ball horribly and let the opposition run off our mistakes and score.

Where the [censored] Melksham?

Is he playing?

[whatwhat say what 22,749]

oh well, we're up at the half at least

rubbish half of footy from both sides

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Pressure certainly dropped off in the last 6-7 minutes, but we are playing better footy than the last few weeks.  Some of the usual things are still there - the turnovers, the silly decisions - but we've also seen us play a little more consistently up to this point.

Allowing GC some easier goals, even the ones they pulled out of their rear end, hurts, but I'm happy to be in front and we should go on and win this.

We have come a long way when bringing in Omac and then Tmac not playing makes us better.

Why do our players try and take it from the oppositions hands when the ump is about to pay holding the ball!!!???

Never wait on the umpires to pay our club a free kick.

There should be a rule, if our midfielder have nothing on offer, hold onto the ball and draw players until there is something on offer. Just rushed players. If you're going to play chaos ball at least teach your players to hit targets and not just bomb.

And draw the player for the overlap.  We rarely ever do this under SG now.  Used to early on in patches.

[Ted Lasso 19,514]

Geez we look soft 

 

[Demon Disciple 12,122]

Half time and we're in front, but could be playing sooo much better, they on the other hand gotten most of their goals cheaply. Clean up our act and that stops.

Much harder said than done.

[Diamond_Jim 12,580]

A regulation win on the way just like.... (Hell I can't remember our last regulation win !!!)

[The heart beats true 18,123]

Relax everyone. We are dominating inside 50’s and we all know that’s a great indicator of the outcome.

I actually don't think we are. That's exactly what we have been dishing up. The opposition is just not the same quality.

has brayshaw got a bun stuck up his bum,

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

Kozzy...anyone think he has done anything to deserve a game this season? Been selected on potential and is providing little to no pressure around the forward line

Because they don't pay it very often.

Yes, but seriously, it's obvious the ump was about to pay it, there was the obligatory wait for 2-3 seconds that always indicates that a HTB is about to be paid. Otherwise the ump whistles a ball-up immediately

Anyway, a small thing, but just annoying as it turns a free kick into a contested ball situation

By periods you mean a large majority of the second quarter. Not a lot to show for our dominance. At one point GC had only 5 forward 50 entries for 2 goals. 

[Demon_spurs 1,852]

Better game than the Coll Hawt v game. I reckon were doing alright. Amazing how tracs miss can turn a game around

[loges 6,767]

Melksham, Hannan and Picket in the forward line, all need to do more.

he's being played as a forward / part time mid.  He's had one, maybe two, clean pieces of play (from mid field).  One was a lovely handball off the ground to a running Salem (i think).  Not much else and the else has been bog ordinary.

[deanox 9,915]

Dirty day for Lockhart. 1 free kick against, 1one percenter, and 1 pressure act,  being his only stats.

Its possible the one percenter and the pressure act were the same action.

AVB as well.

[WA Demon Boy 966]

Hannan, AVB and Melk are really vanilla, boring players -  offer very little
