VFL Game Day VFL Preliminary Final: Williamstown vs Essendon, North Port Oval, Sunday 15/09/19, 2:10 PM

[Yoda_]

Why are we incapable of sticking a tackles? It's happening at all levels.

cause we are too small

 

[Tippa43]

Eth is Mitch Hibberd number 7? Has put some real size on!

 

[eDPS]

Some really dumb decisions

 

[Yoda_]

Fwiw, today is what Ben McNeice was doing week in, week out 2 years ago at VFL level. Easy to see why I (and Adrian Dodoro) wanted to get him onto our list.

 

[JayJ20]

So undisciplined

 

[Seb78]

Undisciplined stupidity

 

[nylexbandit]

Some really dumb decisions

Dumb, but they're also paying the really soft ones that they often don't

 

[lmaohelp]

Can Jake Long no longer take a spot on our list ? Needs to be delisted at years end

Some really dumb decisions

Mate it's pathetic. Seriously sad to watch. Worst thing is, we aren't changing anything about it and trying to do the same s**t and still not getting any different results.

Was half way through posting something similar. The hack kick into f50 before was moronic.

 

[nylexbandit]

Maybe we should just fold. Our seniors are some of the worst out there

Not to mention 3-4 basic skill errors. He is a nothing player with no size pace or skill. The gig is up

 

[eDPS]

A real lack of intent in the ruck and midfield, have some pride

 

[Seb78]

Nice finish Houlahan

 

[Seb78]

Onya Jok

It's ok.

Just picture this

Jake Long gets another contract.
Michael Hartley gets another contract.
Joe Daniher leaves and returns to All Australian levels whilst the two picks inside 10 we get for Joe are small midfielders or flankers we don't necessarily need.
Langford continues to play on the ball whilst our developing 'mids' at VFL level (Mynot, Clarke) continue to do ok but don't get rewarded with AFL games and Jordan Ridley continues to be impressive at VFL level but can't get a look in at AFL level and is delisted at the end of 2020 for list change purposes.

 

[nylexbandit]

For anyone doubting Dys Heppell was carrying a significant injury, that shot of him in the cast should satisfy them

It's bleddingly obvious but our ruck's need to play as midfielders. Break even in the ruck and try to influence around the ground.

Exactly the reason why he should have had surgery 5-6 weeks ago. why ruin his pre season

 

[Yoda_]

How was that not holding the ball against Nick Meese?

No drama's taking it our of the ruck but the fend off was prior!

 

[Seb78]

Lol Jok having a real crack against Meese. I like it

 

[eDPS]

These umpires as usual kill us in the VFL

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Jesus Christ the umpiring is horrendous.

 

[nylexbandit]

It's ok.

You're right - there is much to look forward to. Not to mention Ridley then going to another club and doing well.

OT - If they let Joe go for not much (Papley FFS!) I'll find it hard to put any more money into the club.

Score you melting campaigners?
