GAMEDAY: Practice Match vs Bulldogs

[WA Demon Boy 966]

These free kicks are so weak

[The heart beats true 18,148]

Free kick bulldogs

[layzie 34,043]

Soft frees

[Brownie 5,992]

Two pw frees to the bulldogs up forward for a point then a goal.

They're up by 8.

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Jetta back on.

It’s no surprise we are struggling to get our hands on it with so many of our best mids out. 

[Demonland 73,218]

Some things never change. 

7 frees to 3. 

[frankie_d 1,471]

We are being run over. They are front and Centre, have better skills and are killing us around clearances. I know we are playing plenty of young ones. 
 

if the plan is to score forward half goals, someone hasn’t read the script. No ball retention in the forward half. 

[WA Demon Boy 966]

ANB is handy

Not sure why so many on here hate him

[Clintosaurus 7,884]

Wow we got a free.

[BDA 22,911]

Fritsch kicks straight. good lad.

 

[whatwhat say what 22,976]

we've had less than half as many possessions and trail by 3 points

WOW after 10minutes of footy, great supporter....not 

Not even watching the game.

I admire Vanders and loved the intensity and aggression he brought when the club needed it 6-7 years ago, but he hasn’t impacted a game of footy for over 3 years now and is 29 years old. Couldn’t be an easier list decision than to delist him IMO.

[Gorgoroth 13,061]

Worrying signs around the packs, they always seem to have a free player on their backside that means a clean free run forward.

[Jaded No More 68,974]

No Oliver no Melbourne 

[Brownie 5,992]

Free to Frtsch directly in front 20m out.

Goal!

3 points down.

Seems to be a set play to kick to Gawn on the wings with a second tall in behind. Gawn overruns and Tmac or Jackson take the uncontested mark.

[Gorgoroth 13,061]

For a player who is meant to be quick, Baker doesn’t chase fast...

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Gawn down for a second and I feel vomit coming on. Please take him off. It’s not worth the risk!

[Return to Glory 8,448]

The plus side is that we appear to have a functional defence. 

[BDA 22,911]

Nobody nailing down their round one spot so far.

[Demonland 73,218]

Absolutely let off the hook in that quarter. 

we really should be at least 4 goals down. 

[Demonland 73,218]

Bulldogs have loose players all over the ground. The always have a loose player around the packs to flick it out to. 

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,282]

Outplayed, but not punished on the scoreboard.

Looked better the last few minutes of the quarter.

 

 

[dazzledavey36 55,390]

Underwhelming so far

With no midfield. We are lucky they haven’t scored with their opportunities. On the other hand we have done fairly well with limited ones.
