Review Round 23 MELBOURNE V GWS GIANTS SUNDAY 1:10 PM ETIHAD STADIUM

[Land of the Giants]

We just don't want it enough.

This is shaping up as a bad loss.

 

[srobbo]

This has loss written all over it.

Dees respond everytime. Disappointing end to what's been a good year.

 

[Simmofreo]

It's going to be a 50 point loss. The boys don't look interested. It's a great thing for people to remember all off season while trying to drum up membership in a tough market of western Sydney

 

[Giant Pete]

Am at the game. Melbourne want it more. Our defenders are too inexperienced.

How many Giants supporters are there? Looks like about 100 - 150.

 

[_GT_]

Bitterly disappointing. More passengers than the six AM train to Mumbai

 

[dlanod]

Really sloppy - our best skilled mids are almost all out. Forward 50 entries are haphazard which seem to be the main difference with Melbourne Gawn too. We really needed to start roving his taps.

 

[Land of the Giants]

McCarthy's miss leads to a Demons goal.

 

[dlanod]

God Jones gets away with some terrible non-disposal.

 

[inamedthegiants]

Treloar...Glory hog dip s**t.

 

[inamedthegiants]

You'd find more talent in a sheltered workshop than the flogtards out there wearing White today.

 

[_GT_]

Tomlinson can * off. I don't give a * how well liked he is.

Carnt is a phucking SPUD

Mate, sad thing is that he isn't on his Pat. Just terrible decisions and disposal all day. No point singling him out.

 

[Colonial]

Get home from lunch and...... This is terrible.

 

[Land of the Giants]

8,974 - less than our average crowd at Spotless.

 

[Andre the Giant]

Disappointing end to the year, if you're down a bit on intensity you get punished, we were down a lot today.

It hurts to be Melbourne's bunny

 

[Colonial]

That sucked. Not the way you want to end it.

 

[Land of the Giants]

Let's just hope it wasn't Treloar's last game for us. Not like this.

 

[_GT_]

Well, that was a great way to finish the season! Full of running, hard contested footy. Well done Melbourne.

Giants? You let yourselves down today. This proves how far away from finals we are. What were we thinking?

No doubt we should be in the mix for finals next year, but days like this make you really doubt whether we can take that next step. If that is how I feel as a Foundation member, how to prospective new 2016 members feel?

Not happy.

 

[inamedthegiants]

Mate, sad thing is that he isn't on his Pat. Just terrible decisions and disposal all day. No point singling him out.

He does it week in, week out. What's the point in having someone on your list "just because they've got a good tank"
We can go and get 27 Kenyan Marathon runners that would have better tanks than Tonlinson but the point is.

His decision making is as good as a 12 year old Blonde after 3 bottles of Passion Pop at an R&B club.

Cut the phucking spud loose.

Again, he aint the only one.

 

[Andre the Giant]

We got exposed at ruck down back and up forward...everywhere really.

We do need an experienced ruck to come in, anybody that can't see that is kidding themselves.

We badly need a big strong defender, even if it's a Brian Lake on a 12 month deal we need a presence there.

Our forward line is one dimensional, clunky and predictable. They are all tall and do exactly the same thing. We need mobile forward who is a point of difference...Gunston type.

Finally Leon needs some help. We've been exposed a few times re game plan and a lack of a plan B. Time to shuffle some chairs Leon and get some experienced help instead of a bunch of school coaches and blokes learning on the job.

Window is now, be decisive and ruthless or end up like Gold Coast.

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Sounds like I picked the right game to be driving back from Newcastle for. No radio - just my new Father's Day CD - Positive Songs for Negative People (Frank Turner).

So I can assume I shouldn't watch the replay...

How'd Barrett look in his debut? How long did he get? Etc etc.

Don't even phucking bother mate.

 

[patfullfankezz]

Waste of a trip to Melbourne.

And FYI I HATE flying. Feel sick just thinking about the flight home.

Spot on on all fronts. I've been saying we need a mature big defender all year. Been shot down by a few on here about it too. In two or three years someone like marchbank might be big enough, but not at the moment. Corr should never play on the gorillas... He will never be big enough.
We need to review our defensive set up too... Don't use a zone enough imo.
