My 3 word player analysis V GWS


joeboy

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.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
