My 3 word player analysis V GWS

Recommended Posts

Gawn - intimidated by Mumford

Viney - was a liability 

Harmes - fumbled and slow

Oliver - season worst game

Petracca - prolific without effect

McDonald - our best tall

May - tight as ever

Hibberd - always under pressure 

Salem - continued superlative form

Petty - never imbued confidence 

Hunt - not Usain Bolt

Langdon - couldn’t get involved 

Jackson - couldn’t impose himself

Pickett - hit the wall 

Spargo - schoolboy footballer again

Neal-Bullen - did nothing regularly

Sparrow - overawed and overwhelmed 

Fritsch - only some cameos 

Lever - easily our best

Brayshaw - loose and unaccountable 

Jordan - had little involvement 

Rivers - was rarely sighted

Gawn was not intimidated by Mumford. He was illegally getting smashed by Mumford while 3 umpires stood by and watched. He has every right to demand half the protection the likes of Selwood and Bont get. He’s as good a player!

Agree. Maxy was not intimidated.  I watched the whole game and Maxy did whatever he could to lift us.  It was not his fault we lost today at all.

thought harmes tried very hard and played an usual role at half forward had no support and got bagged by his own players when he tried to barrell a goal when the rest of them where just plodding around

After reading the '2 minutes hate' version of the 3 word review, I now officially forgive Joeboy for all those time he labelled Tyson 'prolific but wasteful' (even that one time when he was injured).?

Disagreed with Harmes and Max, but mostly on the money.

A bit generous on Mcdonald. As good as he was,  his goal kicking undid all of his good work imo. 

Langdon still got 25 touches too. So I thought he got involved, especially late. 

Also Jordon is spelt Jordon

Anyone else notice a fair bit of bagging between our players when shots were sprayed. Player has a shot and others arms go up complaining you didn't kick to me

Yes I did. Harmes seemed to be copping a fair bit of lip from the players walking off at half time. Lever was the only one who offered him some solace at the time from what I saw. Lever had his arm on Harmes back and was explaining something to him. I have notice a bit of a disconnect between some of our players recently. Not sure what is going on.

Unfortunately Oliver is often very demonstrative when he’s not kicked to.. I agree it’s not a good look, particularly coming from someone like him who usually only has eyes for Trac at the expense of a better option

Underperformers receiving the passed buck - to diminish their own poor efforts - through disguised credibility to comment in the first place.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
