If the Dees turn up we win comfortably.
-
We kick the ball to the pockets deliberately. Its the highest percentage of locking the ball into our forward line and being able to reset the defence to keep it there.

The World is a worse place since the advent of 'social media' Its easy and liberating to disconnect.

Being patient doesn't mean project player. Bradke is a project player. Joel Smith as well. You don't use pick 9 on a project player. Comedy gold.
-
I'm a believer that players lift for games against their old clubs. perhaps there is a point to prove. Maybe that means in M Brown and Melksham plus Viney.
-
Mitch Brown has played at 3 clubs, 1 less than Martin Pike who played at 4 clubs and won 4 flags. Your point was?
-
Yeah that makes sense. Seriously? If you really had to do that you would try Weid in the backline at Casey. He doesn't deserve a spot in the side at the moment.
-
He's just making stuff up now again..no one uses pick 9 on a 'project player'
-
All true. Sad you can't see that
-
Yep I think i know who is "ridiculously overacting". My post was pretty measured. His form his poor he doesn't deserve his spot at the moment.

Hunt kicked 4 goals...

Nah, you're blinkered. Haven't seen one person blame him solely for or the loss against the Pies. Bar one game he has never put it together. And that was in 2018. He's gone backwards. What are his key attributes aside from being tall? He can't take a clean mark. He can't kick goals. He can't lead properly. Hell, he doesn't even tie up a key defender. The narrative is really about letting him find form in the two's. We are simply playing one short with him in the team And gee whiz we have a ready made replacement waiting. Two in fact.

We expected the comeback to just happen

It was bad but not the reason we lost

Yes, it would seem that he looks best when leading into space. Surprising that he wants to body with defenders - that clearly isn't working. And at worst him leading into space splits the defence and opens the fwd line.
-
This. I sit there with family and we know in 10mins whether or not they are switched on. I am guessing the coaches know that too but yesterday they seemed owerless to rev them up.
-
I'll preface this by saying I like petty but he was destroyed yesterday. Can mark pretty well but his decision making on when to mark and when to spoil is not yet there. Too often gets bodied out of the contest. And when he gets the ball in a close situation his first thought is to grab the ball tight and fall to the ground, I guess attempting to force a stoppage. I find it hard to know whether this is being coached into him or whether he is nervous about his place in the side or if he genuinely doesn't have an attacking mode. He's young and the jury is still out but I would like to see more progress from him soon.

Our fwd line has not clicked all year. We have experimented with it but we haven't really crushed a team to date. Weid definitely needs a spell in the 2 's.. Bring in anyone that will compete. Brown M or B doesn't matter
-
This. Oliver needs some serious goal kicking coaching from Mark Williams
-
we have just had 10 days off. Seriously. Oh they were tired.

This team has got big heads. Oliver and Trac were terrible - trying to take on all comers. Olivers' kicks for goal are putrid. Trac thinks he' s auditioning for a Hollywood movie today. The fwd line was a genuine debacle. The ease at which Pies players marked the ball and exited our fwd 50 was reminiscent of the terrible years a decade ago. Where are all the Weid defenders today? What a pathetic game. You could almost forgive him if he stopped Moore but MOore was one of their best. Fritsch chooses to play every second week. And TMac? Not sure what happened to him today. But there was simply no cohesions and everyone was playing for themselves. I have no voice from screaming at our players to man up - the number of times a Pie player would get the ball and there would be 3 or 4 immediate options with none of our players chasing nearly made me throw up. The defence was a complete shambles and our slow predicatable ball movement proved easy to counter today. They had 14 marks inside their 50 by fourth quarter. Horrid defending Blueprint to beat Melbourne is simply get the ball in quickly and don't allow our defenders to defend. They seemed unable to dop that one on one today. The usual suspects will come out saying 'oh we are 11 and 2 , what a great result" but we have seen this movie too many times before. We simply cannot crush teams we are expected to beat. And when it counts we had no leaders on the field. Digusting performance against a really average team.
