GAMEDAY: Rd 14 vs St. Kilda

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

Very nice.

Weid, Trac (x2) and Gawny all on the scoreboard.   Confidence should be high.

[FireInTheBennelly 4,072]

Ominous sign right on 1/4 time.

Max pinged for the ridiculous straight arm rubbish they crucify him with. Him and only him

[GCDee 3,199]

Interesting free against max there right at the end of the QTR , sounds like the umps are going to call him for the "straight arm block" again 

[Razor 289]

Who likes Max up forward?

 

[Ham 741]

Can someone shed some light how there was no 50m penalty paid when Jones (StK) was [censored] around and not getting off the ball??

Absolute [censored] take, it was no different to what Fritsch did and he was penalised 50m.

[gs77 4,252]

Nice to see set shots going between the bigger middle sticks. Good work boys. 

[Diamond_Jim 12,590]

Dramatic turn around in the number of possessions during that term

at around the ten minute mark we were about ten down and we finished the quarter 11 up

[titan_uranus 25,020]

That quarter turned when we got on top in the middle.

We clearly have the ability to move the ball and find scoring options against their defence. Need to stay on top in the middle.

4 goals from 4 set shots.

Great start from the Dees!

Not bad from 3 less inside 50s.? Guess Tracs 70 m goal doesnt count.

Backing our gameplan versus theirs... We must continue to win the ball and hit targets...

Weren't we playing the Saints the last time they pulled the rubbish on him?

Colour of the jumper only plausible explanation. 

[rolling fog 1,207]

Elite quarter from Trac

[Stein9193 129]

What great bloody start

Jones found the uncontested target

Kicked it over his head!!

[Earl Hood 6,086]

Which team is coming out for the second quarter? That is always the worry. We are obviously prone to the Saints leg speed and quick ball movement so we have to maintain the intensity. Here is hoping! 

[Jaded No More 68,922]

Need more from Gus and Oliver. They both had stinkers last week. Need to lift. 

[forever demons 2,220]

oscar had one chance and bllew it someone tell to watch the ball and not the player

Easy fix  -  run and jump at the ball and tap to advantage 

He'll adjust

[Master Deebater 492]

Love the strong work by May.

He keeps them honest and sore.

That's what I thought - the game we ended up losing by 2 pts? Many dubious 50s in that game too

[titan_uranus 25,020]

We were down 0-3 and then 3-6 in clearances but finished the quarter 8-8. 

The midfield battle is crucial.

We had Jones on a wing at one stage, which isn't my ideal wing line up.

[Fork 'em 6,983]

 Time for Ratten to make a few adjustments and shut us down.

Slighty harsh on Oliver.  Had 7 touches and 3 clearances that term.

Agree with Gus.  Viney only the 1 touch as well.

[Earl Hood 6,086]

Who is picking up Butler, can’t tell on TV? Must shut him down.
