Can someone tell me why people boo Weideman? I know they're not booing, instead saying 'Weeeed' or something like that? is that right? I just don't really understand it. 'Weeed' sounds nothing like a 'boo'..? I'm confused lol.
Also the fact that a guy that spends more time with Casey, it's a strange thing that I've never really understood and warmed to. I feel like it's a little cringe. :) Have I missed something?
I'm getting a little tired of playing 1 quarter of footy to win games though. It's been 6 weeks of this trend and it's all well and good for people to say that we can go up a gear but when? It'd be nice to get into a habit of playing 4 quarters of footy or even 3 instead of 1. Much room for improvement.
All good if no-one reads this, I'm doing it for myself :)
Gawn: holding his marks
Spargo: Busy! Costly miss.
Pickett: Another costly miss
Bowey: Smart, Clean, Powerful (for his size :P)
Langdon: Prolific like usual.
Weideman: A quiet 3
Sparrow: Showed unappreciated speed
Oliver: 3 Brownlow votes
Petty: Becoming AA worthy
Joel Smith: WTF was that?
Luke Jackson: Quiet game forgiven
J.Jordon: Vanilla 19 touches
ANB: 2 costly misses (1 inexcusable)
S.May: Fantastic without lever
A.Brayshaw: Doing his thang!
Dunstan: kept it simple
Harmes: An annoying miss (on the full)
Fritsch: 2 needed goals
Rivers: Finding his groove
J.Hunt: Kept Shai quiet.
Ben Brown: Was impressively unimpressive. (will get better though).
Petracca: important when needed (needs to sharpen up his kicking for goal though)
I hate to be a negative Nelly but it's hard to give positive overall reviews without mention the poor kicking for goal, especially the ones from Spargo, ANB, Pickett, Gawn, Harmes and Langdon.
With all due respect. I couldn't disagree any more. Weideman doesn't take the spot of Ben Brown, one of our most important players, just because he played 1 good game 3 weeks ago. Using the same logic, Tomlinson would've stayed in the team and kept Petty out despite Petty being the much better player.
In: Ben Brown
Out: Weideman
It deserved to be paid just out of langdons stupidity alone. Like what on earth was he thinking. That coupled with Mcdonald holding on to their ruckman's arm in the ruck contest and Harmes kicking into the man on the mark are some of the dumbest plays I've see this year.
Another game that will be neck and neck until deep into the 4th because we couldn't ice the game sooner.
