Still lacking someone to take on the big tall forwards.
-
I think the Dunn omission is the one giving us supporters the most angst. The vibe is that he hasn't bought in to the new game plan but he can play on the bigger bodied guys. Lumumba will hopefully be back soon and I agree with you - I would prefer him or OMac to Garland. If you look at our team selection for the backline this year we have had a lot of changes and that can't be good....

And did you see Mitchell slide the knee into bernie's head on the outer wing? I hate the Hawks
-
But when combined with Hunt, Wagner and a brother that is making a lot of ordinary decisions and has generally poor disposal we have a very inexperienced defence that is leaking goals. Jetta and Hunt have a manic attack on the ball or player with the ball but Wagner is sloppy, Oscar is outbodied too easily (and has little urgency) and TMac has fundamental flaws in his game. Collectively this is a problem. OMac cant be learning his craft in the seniors with all of the newbies around him. It makes us too vulnerable. Jetta is our most reliable defender by a mile but we don't have a big bodied defender that's reliable. Hence we get cleaned up by Reiwoldt, Cloke, Membery, Lobbe etc etc

Have just wasted 5mins reading some of your previous posts. What a sad troll you are.

Good point. Let's drop both of them
-
No he isn't and you know it. And you know that disposals are totally misleading when used like this.
-
errr hello? Have I missed something? If that is the case maybe TMac has the sads and is playing accordingly....
-
I'll contrast the comments about Hunt with OMac. Hunt makes quite a few errors but is manic in his attack on the ball and the player. We can see what he brings and what the footy dept is trying to do. With OMac I am not sure what he brings other than height. His attack on the footy and player is not great, his disposal is 'iffy' and he gets outbodied regularly. He lacks urgency and looks quite lost at times down back. Hunt rarely gets criticised but OMac does. Why do think that is? OMac is not ready and when combined with Hunt, Wagner and TMac we are leaking goals. He is learning the game but should be doing it at Casey.
-
OMac dawdles towards a contest. He has no urgency to kill the ball or keep it from his opponent. That is appalling from a backman.
-
Ben Ken wants to play on QB and played accordingly. Well done.
-
Mark Evans said it should have been play on. It should have been holding the ball as he had prior. The Umps have still stuffed it up/
-
Way too many young inexperienced players in there. OMac is a lliability ATM. Wagner spoils his good work with brain fades for mine. The lack of body on Bruest and lack of urgency when Bruest was paddling the ball around the boundary in the last quarter was the game killer. Hunt works hard and takes the game on. Thank the lord for Jetta who holds it together.
-
It's no mystery. Dunn clearly isn't doing what the coaches want. Otherwise he would be in the team.
-
Good strategy. Let him walk for nothing. OMG Very glad you aren't managing the list.
-
Liar? Really? Explain where/why? You are simply a muck raker
-
Good to see you agreeing with me
-
I am not sure I have seen bashing so much as the call to let him learn the game at Casey. He is IMO not up to it at present. I get that the footy dept need to get games into players and maybe looking at the long term but it may also stifle his development by playing him now. Your last sentence is what we are all saying. Except some want him to do it at Casey.
-
That's the plan
-
Has been terrible in all our bad games. Goes missing big time.
-
That's not true. He was abysmal in the St Kilda game. Got moved to the fwd line because he gave away 2 stupid 50m penalties, didn't play to thegame plan amd was dropped the following week. TMac wasn't good but he was miles better than Dunn
-
Played a lot of his junior footy with Amon apparently. He would have enjoyed that tackle!
