VFL Round 19: Essendon v Swans

[Yoda_]

Has Munkara regressed even from how far back he was coming from?

He’s been okay the past month

 

[Yoda_]

Lord been surprisingly good

 

[doug85]

That was a beautiful goal

 

[ant555]

Will Gould who is a key defender has 3 goals.. this is bad.

He was playing forward in the first quarter.

 

[Yoda_]

26 - 29 inside 50's for the first half

down by 7 goals. Makes sense

 

[ant555]

He’s been okay the past month

He is still soft and does not attack the footy anywhere near hard enough.
Also walk’s while his opponent is running up the ground to get involved.
He has some tricks but he is a total liability most of the time .
Unless he learns to play with some urgency he will never make it .

Oh I’m not doubting any of that. He still a mile off it. But he’s actually been contributing with a few tackles and goals unlike the first month or so

No one can take a mark.
Stewart has more rust than an XA falcon . Jorgensen is doing his best Peter Wright imitation and Voss is s**t truck slow and can not take a mark in a contest .

 

[Nicholas61]

Caught the second half of the second quarter - looked like the worst parts of last night. We go forward to mass congestion no separation no one can take a contested mark. They go forward and there is mayhem and panic in defense.

 

[ant555]

Walla has been good in patches

Baldwin good.

Weideman okay.

Tsatas not dominant but has had some good clearance’s.

Wanganeen quiet but not through lack of effort.

Monty okay.

Voss is slower than a 1970 Bedford truck .

Lord trying to give a bit of run .

Hayes had had a few good moments in the back half.

Stewart rusty.

Taha limited impact so far .

 

[Lore]

Walla has been good in patches

How far away before we see him in the AFL again? or ever..

We really need a guy like that to make it - you can see the athletic profile and he will be slippery. If it all clicks I am thinking Liam Ryan. Unfortunately not sure how redeemable the uncompetitive efforts will be.

 

[ant555]

How far away before we see him in the AFL again? or ever..

If he plays out the second half today like he has so far he would be better n the frame . Has not been an easy game for the small forwards and he has worked pretty hard so far .

 

[Yoda_]

Im starting to get more reservations than before re Voss. Looks a veery simple player who has one (ok) trick at VFL level but seems to have been found out with the lead and mark

 

[ant555]

Mass done . Knee iced up .

 

[rioli brownlow]

Who is this satarse fella playing for Essendon???

In fairness the entries into the very crowded forward line has been under 10s stuff

 

[Yoda_]

In fairness the entries into the very crowded forward line has been under 10s stuff

that's an indictment on lack of cohesion from the fwd group

 

[MiguelM]

In fairness the entries into the very crowded forward line has been under 10s stuff

Sounds like the seniors

 

[ant555]

There are no skinny runts playing for the Swans which makes a difference.

that's a crap excuse. We were above them on the ladder before today. We've been crap.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

that's a crap excuse. We were above them on the ladder before today. We've been crap.

Now they have their full list available their reserves team looks better. Same with us ..up and down on list availability

 

[ant555]

that's a crap excuse. We were above them on the ladder before today. We've been crap.

It is an excuse when we are playing 4 or 5 VFL guys who would be 75kg .
We are getting flogged in one on one contest’s. They have the bigger bodies.

VFL players are placeholders, they should hold no blame at all
