Game Day Round 17 - Melbourne v Adelaide, 7:40pm AEST, TIO Stadium, Darwin

[stretcharmstrong]

Poor bloody kent, what the * is the club doing let him sit there on his own?

That's really poor.

 

[Proper Gander]

Melksham has been busy making up for those 3 first half goals. Has been his typical mediocre self since.

He really shits me. He does just enough well to make it difficult to excuse his horrid stuff.

 

[Cannon82]

We've been really bad at football tonight

I think you're overanalysing it.

 

[RandB]

You'd rather just take continual pain killers or get back on the piss than risk going to Darwin hospital if you're Dean Kent.

 

[BG32]

Poor bloody kent, what the **** is the club doing let him sit there on his own?

That's really poor.

Seems we have left half our staff back in Melbourne

 

[PerfectFooty]

Poor bloody kent, what the **** is the club doing let him sit there on his own?

That's really poor.

I assume he needs to sit in the cool, and this is darwin

 

[Cannon82]

5 minutes to go, hanging on to the edge of my seat. Will Eddie Betts cure cancer before the final siren??

 

[LeverPuller]

I assume he needs to sit in the cool, and this is darwin

Yeah that's my thought

 

[Cannon82]

Rory Sloane is something else. He is talking to his team mates on the boundary line. I've dropped my jaw and it shattered into a thousand pieces.

 

[Proper Gander]

You get Jellybeans if you can convince them it's a croc attack emergency though

 

[CWaffles]

Seems like we struggle to kick within 20m or goals but seem comfortable from 65m?

 

[stretcharmstrong]

I think you're overanalysing it.

It's MFCSS

 

[Topkent]

I'm not as fussed with Hogan, hasn't worked for him but he's done well in the contest. Just needs to find his feet after a while out

He gets hands on it but then goes to ground every time. If he doesn't mark it it costs us an inside 50 at the other end because he doesn't tackle or hold it in

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

Probably a result to be expected given the outs and Adelaide a mature side and a genuine top of the ladder team. Just not clean enough and good enough with some big outs. We lacked class and polish and it showed.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Again not fussed with Hogan. I know we expect a lot from him, hasn't been his night but i've seen enough to suggest he's tried against it. Just needs to get some gametime back into him is all

 

[Topkent]

Poor bloody kent, what the **** is the club doing let him sit there on his own?

That's really poor.

Yeah I don't understand that at all

 

[Crimson Azure]

Pathetic finish to the game, gave up.

We have one more on the bench.

 

[Cannon82]

Pathetic finish to the game, gave up.

We have one more on the bench.

About three or four less on the field, though.

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

Again not fussed with Hogan. I know we expect a lot from him, hasn't been his night but i've seen enough to suggest he's tried against it. Just needs to get some gametime back into him is all

Agree, I do worry that he's lost a lot of conditioning which might be hard to get back this year.

 

[PerfectFooty]

He gets hands on it but then goes to ground every time. If he doesn't mark it it costs us an inside 50 at the other end because he doesn't tackle or hold it in

Mate he's underdone, if we had other talls Hogan would be in the VFL. He's simply needs to find his feet again after a while out. It's not worth getting the boot stuck in his second game back

 

[Topkent]

Omac faces away from Walker to run into Jenkins body and leave him alone. Jesus H Christ

 

[Proper Gander]

I'm actually going to need to lie down before I fall down now

 

[stretcharmstrong]

I assume he needs to sit in the cool, and this is darwin

Given he is clearly distressed, think they could slap a jumper on someone and have them sit with him.

It's poor form

 

[RandB]

You get Jellybeans if you can convince them it's a croc attack emergency though

Only if you're willing to give an interview to the NT News.

 

[Topkent]

It's been the same his whole career
