Game Day Black and white stripes vs Collingwood R20

[ROBBBO]

and that folks is why Drew is of value, Farrell should be nowhere near our defence

 

[PJ Power]

Classic.

Marshall misses a sitter to deny us a 5 goal lead.

Farrell loses two identical marking contests.

Then we do our best successfully to concede two goals in the last 60s. Thanks Aliir and Jonas.

And we wonder why we lose close ones.

 

[RossFC]

So is the 2nd quarter where we completely get smashed and are somehow 40 points down?

 

[PowerKat]

Awesome TWO goals in the last minute lol

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Shocking last 2 minutes.

 

[gbear]

Our backline are so bad.

Literally dominating everywhere except when it goes into the back half. Bad disposals, fumbles, bad positioning, etc. It's comical.

They are coached by Chadbro, enough said!

 

[Ford Fairlane]

That's the usual script

So is the 2nd quarter where we completely get smashed and are somehow 40 points down?

 

[Coobk001]

Yep. We aren't winning this.

As soon as they play half decent football they cut us open.

It's nearly all about the center clearance. I can only remember 1 successful transition of the ball, the rest of the qtr was team that wins the ball from the middle keeps it forward till they score.

Our backline is so bad, just completely unable to stop scoring or counter attack.

 

[dirty2]

Farrell as a defender experiment is garbage and needs to stop immediately

Anyone who Chuck's Farrell into the backlines has no idea about football and should be sacked immediately.

Mood switched from “battling underdog nobody expects anything from today” to “sh¡t, if we keep this up people will expect us to actually go through with it”.

Clockwork.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Is Jed McEntee playing? I literally don't remember seeing him on the screen.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

CAN WE CONCEDE THE CUSTOMARY DOUBLE LATE GOAL?

YES WE KEN!!

 

[Waspy79]

Drew has never played in defence

 

[Hot Port]

Rubbish always last minute goals

 

[Frank Hansen II]

How Jonas is captain I’ll never understand, bloke is the biggest dud

Spends so little time reading the ball in the air and concedes positioning and an attempt at mark/or at least front position.

 

[RossFC]

Is Jed McEntee playing? I literally don't remember seeing him on the screen.

Seen him twice, handballed a ball into 2 Collingwood players.

Also took a mark.

 

[Us against the rest]

Seen this movie before

 

[Papa G]

Butters jump too high in the air when he gathers the ball is something he needs to get out of his game. It costs him time.

 

[PJ Power]

So is the 2nd quarter where we completely get smashed and are somehow 40 points down?

That last three minutes from Marshall’s setshot miss onwards highlights our complete lack of killer instinct. We not only allowed them to stay in it, we gave them an enormous injection of momentum going into the break.

All we needed was for three players to execute their best skill properly:
1. Marshall convert a simple shot on goal.
2. Aliir hold a simple mark.
3. Jonas stay in the contest and spoil.

Farrell as a defender experiment is garbage and needs to stop immediately

He was a defender as a junior (only went forward when we drafted him) so he’s hardly new to the position

But as I said recently about moving lord back

When a players finding their feet, don’t yank the rug out from under them.

It should be common sense that the odds that it unleashes their potential is low, but the odds it stalls their development is high.

It’s a dumb risk to take with a player who is improving.

Instead it’s the kind of risk you take with a player like Frederick, or Williams, whose careers are stalling and it’s worthwhile trying something new otherwise they’re headed for the scrap heap anyway.

We have idiots running the joint.

 

[bringbackbucky]

I hate Ken and David so much. I want my club back so that I can get excited by a decent start, rather that watching with complete apathy.

 

[sobrave]

Is Jed McEntee playing? I literally don't remember seeing him on the screen.

I forgot he wasn't dropped. Maybe I need to get the magnifying glass out to see him.

Sub duursma off for drew now. Make something up. Or Farrell.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Buckley cares, just called out our skipper and hasn't given him the good bloke pass

 

[Mr Experience]

Deadset fed up with Aliir's dropped marks this season

 

[PJ Power]

Is Jed McEntee playing? I literally don't remember seeing him on the screen.

He handballes straight to an opponent.
