Review Post-game discussion/positives & negatives vs Geelong

[discodaddy]

A win when we neede it. Can't argue with that.

We played our part in kick-starting the Geelong era. I think we just played our part in ensuring its end.

Well done lads.

 

[Ohhh Errol]

Goldie is huge. Put the house on AA, they are doing post game interviews on fta, even blind Freddy may notice now.

Pos
Goldy= 26 utensils he has!!
Waite did nice things
Tarrant... what a hunk
Thought Jacobs was solid
THhomson was great
Spud was very good
Nahas can walk around like he has a 9 incher
others good too

Negs
Petrie was quite
Higgins stunk it up
Atley was poor
We were lucky to not be down by 50 after the 1st qtr
Gibson was all sorts of rubbish


Great win

Agree with all this but the last line. Good win, it was a 'we should win' game and we did.

Positives:
We won.
Negatives:
Dont give a ****. We won. Thats all that matters.

 

[Shermanator]

Piling on consecutive goals ala 2014 is nice.
Goldstein incredible
Clarko spending the past 15 hours protecting himself and not scouting us at Simmons

 

[Ohhh Errol]

Positives:
We won.
Negatives:
Dont give a ****. We won. Thats all that matters.

It's not. Improvement is all that matters. There is next week you know.

 

[Gasometer]

Interesting I thought Dumont would struggle as sub. Instead he was dominant.

Lethal loved him.

So much negativity in the gameday thread, guys need to relax during the game, great win well done lads, Nahas was huge, so was LT, Goldy took a pack mark in the second q, 3rd in line he was, and I thought then we'll win this.

i was one of the worst offenders in the first half…sorry about that

 

[Grogg]

1st win at The Graveyard in 7 years.

 

[trooroo4life]

Positives:
Taz - **** yeah, bathed Hawkins. Rapt for him.
Basti - Thats the Basti we need to see more of.
Jacobs - turned the game in our favour at the start of the second term.
Goldy - We win enough games he will give the brownlow a fair shake, so often our best.
Team - that effort to pull it back after 1st qtr was phenomenal.

Negatives:
1st Qtr - we need to start better, but forget about that for now big win!

 

[roos_fanatic08]

How ******* good is tazza, so many times clean hands, and excellent decision by foot.

 

[Only Forwards]

Todd f***ing Goldstein

 

[Ry009]

After that long stretch of wasteful s**t leading up to the last quarter we somehow got a mass brain transplant and the composure onwards was reminiscent of our late season level the past couple of years.

Still a way to go to undo the round 1 mess, but was very encouraging.

 

[sagitox]

Wooooo! GO ROOS!!!! WHat a win!!! Goldy! Nahas! Dumont! What champs! Will Dumont get a NAB Rising Star? AWESOME GAME!!!!

 

[amaz199]

It's not. Improvement is all that matters. There is next week you know.

We fought it out in the end. Improvement needs to be done but we have to praise the last quarter effort from the side.

North Melbourne is the first Victorian team to win in Geelong since the Roos did so in 2007. #AFLCatsNorth

We started their Dynasty, and now we've ended it.

 

[discodaddy]

How ******* good is tazza, so many times clean hands, and excellent decision by foot.

Taz was very good. Very happy for the bloke.

 

[Elite Master]

Goldy, 6 tackles, 14 contested posessions, 41 hitouts, 8 clearances. AA GUN

no ruckman gets close to him at the moment.

It's even more impressive that he does it 95% of the time all on his own too. He takes multiple opposition ruckmen and outruns them all getting stronger as the match wears on, quite incredible.

 

[koshari]

Stuck at work with only the worm and a few snippets. It appears basti was good, goldy rocked and froggy had a good debut. Sounded like nahas went pretty well also. Do tell......

 

[Bigeasy]

Very good win on the back of some outstanding individual performances. Goldy was massive, Jacobs and Wright across half back were awesome and Tarrant and Thommo dominated the key defensive posts.

Other positives were Brown, Cunners, Basti and Swallow who I think went head to head with Selwood

 

[numchuks]

North Melbourne is the first Victorian team to win in Geelong since the Roos did so in 2007. #AFLCatsNorth

Not surprising when we're almost the only Victorian team who plays down there year after year.

Fixture can get ****ed.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Looking long term, Tarrant's form is huge. Dare I say, nearly the final piece.

 

[scottywiper]

Goldy is the best ruckman in AFL. Clearly. Taz a massive positive. Wright is quality now. Dumont looked good.
DreWs form a worry

 

[the_one]

wow what a game. killed em after quarter time.
Goldy a star, and we've found one in taz. Looking forward to next week!

 

[koshari]

Saw that wright had 17 touches very early
