My 3 word player analysis V Carlton

[joeboy 3,166]

Gawn - dominated in centre

Viney - total workhorse again

Petracca - classy and important 

May - dominated opponent again

Salem - some terrible decisions 

Brayshaw - focused and impressive 

Oliver - some costly errors

Rivers - was classy again

Lever - one dimensional game

Chandler - was rarely sighted

Pickett - another blockbuster disappointment 

McVee - a smooth mover

Neal-Bullen - needed more involvement 

Grundy - no second efforts 

Smith - only a substitute 

Jordon - loose and limited

van Rooyen - absent when needed

Hunter - better second half

Hibberd - made no difference 

Langdon - has slowed down

Sparrow - the junior Viney

Bowey - too many fumbles 

Melksham - had little impact 

[Fanatique Demon 2,657]

Sounds like we lost by 10 goals.

Melksham. Again no impact.

Two on the trot. 

He's simply on or off and never the twain shall meet for some reason.

[spirit of norm smith 16,589]

Mostly correct. Tough on Lingers perhaps. 

[mauriesy 7,357]

Bit hard on JVR. He tried his heart out. 

[Roost it far 8,627]

JVR.  Tried heart out

 

[Queanbeyan Demon 6,869]

what??? chandler rarely sighted???

kicked a goal and had 6 goal assists. means he had a hand in 7 of our goals.

Bizarre analysis.

[dee-tox 4,835]

Bowey had a Barry Crocker.

[BDA 22,891]

goal umpire - stitched us up

Just about his worst game.

That said, that free that was paid against him in the marking contest was a howler. 

That sort of grappling happens a 100 times a match. And when they mark it they hardly ever pay it.

But sure, ok pay it.

Then how do you not pay maxy, Grundy and jvr frees for being mauled all game?

I am beyond angry with the umpiring last night. Forget tge result, but it was simply nuts hoe many cleat holding the ball frees were not paid - for both sides, but we copped it worse.

I thought Ray in particular had a howler in the last Q...

It's ok to let the game go in a finals type tight game (maybe).

...but to not pay the sling against Riv (luckily it was picked up by another ump) and JVR having his legs taken out.

Please.....

[Return to Glory 8,448]

Salem - performance lacked urgency

Agree. He and Bowey were not good.  When I look at the runners from half back and run and carry , both Bowey and Salem need to do much better.

It shouldn't have been the determing factor, but:

 

Review technology useless

People who criticise Melksham need to remember he's often playing on mutch taller opponents
