dees189227 12,512 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 That quarter summed up in the last 10 seconds. Hannan free in the 50, Weiderman turns around and kicks it straight to a dogs player.

Wiseblood 24,637 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 The big takeaway from that term is the pressure in our forward half. We had no problems getting it in there, however our efforts once it hit the deck, and then the willingness to run defensively, was shocking. No other way to put it. No excuse for it either. They made a few changes, like English up forward permanently, and it's changed their approach entirely. Obviously the game is over but I'm interested to see the response in this last term.
Forest Demon 4,681 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 When other teams get clearances against us, they waltz it out. And the defence from our forwards has been disgusting.
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 1 minute ago, loges said: Hate to make excuses but they are getting every lucky bounce and rebound possible Nothing to do with luck. They are making their own luck but winning the ball, spreading hard, attacking contests. We are standing still. We have made no moves to stop their most damaging players. Goodwin is so happy to drop Jetta and let Harmes and Melksham stink it up for weeks on end. Pickett has given us nothing and keeps getting rewarded. This season is just another waste of time.
Buzzy 992 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Embarrassing and potentially season destroying quarter against a team who isn't even that good. False sense of security from 3 wins against trash. That's where we are at. Also, Trengove speaks incredibly slowly ? 1
DeeZee 7,496 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 We are no good under real pressure. It happens time and time again 1
dazzledavey36 56,333 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Reminds me of the Collingwood game of 2017. When stakes are high and the opportunity is right in front of us to grab, we simply fail. 3 1
monoccular 17,760 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 What a disgraceful absence of leadership both on and off the field.
Devil In Disguise 2,284 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Everything as predicted. We are [censored]. Too loose. Too many passengers. Weak as [censored] Melbourne.
Purple77 1,025 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Nope, kick the first goal of the quarter and it'll be on. Shocking quarter, but keep at it Dees.
Buzzy 992 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Melksham giving away a putrid 50 is all I'll remember from this game.
Demon_spurs 1,984 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 I jusr wanna seem some spirit. Oliver 9 touches ffs
The heart beats true 18,201 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Our team defence was absolutely destroyed that quarter. Our back 6 have been good all game. What does that tell you....? That in a head to head between coaches and game styles we just got out scored by 6 goals in a short quarter, and didn’t respond. Please can Goodwin go. He’s simply got no plan B, and isn’t creative.
Lord Nev 13,512 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Bevo: Sets the theme of the game, has the players up and about, makes moves that give them huge momentum. Goody: Corporate speak and crossed arms. 3
Gorgoroth 13,220 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Our set up from the start of this game was terrible and it hasn’t changed. We can’t fix the centre taps, the clearances, nor around the ground, they kick out with such ease I’m sure they aren’t even trying anymore.
Lil_red_fire_engine 11,383 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 As soon we we were put under any pressure all our mids go back to trying to win the same ball and leave them the outlets. They have just shown why we still need 2-3 good runners on the outside. Still had chances that quarter but Melksham, Fritsch and Sparrow unable to take them. Lets see if we drop our heads or have a crack still in the last.

Agree beat two crap teams and Pies who were cooked. Dogs have loose players everywhere. We are bottom 8 at best. Good team don’t have goalless qtrs
Greendale 350 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 If the dogs have extras down back you either have to kick it deep to the pockets or hit up short targets. So many of the dogs attacks began from kicks to the danger zone, 30 metres out dead infront.

whatwhat say what 23,854 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 unfortunately it appears we're at the bottom edge of that pack of 6-13 teams not good enough for finals, not bad enough to sink to the bottom

rufus 1,162 Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Well it was good to see the boys dig in and show some fight when things started going against us. This group is exactly what we know they are...not bad when things are going ok and [censored] terrible when put under some pressure. Failed test. Did not deserve finals after Port debacle and proved today that we are nowhere near up to it anyway. 1
