[IHaveAHardWick]

Pathetic, pathetic effort. Speechless. Absolutely zero effort

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Give it to them Ooze...big smiles all around!

 

[Ctl]

Dow hasnt touched it. Prestia 2 handballs....

dow let ainsworth waltz out of the middle

 

[tigers12]

Prestia is done this will be his last season absolute shocking hopper terrible recruit Hard**** got us a fraud of a footballer

 

[Triggering Tiger]

Just get pick 1 this year and rebuild properly.

Yep no choice.

 

[captain cotch 9]

Hello darkness my old friend

I just said to my son that I hope he dosnt need to wait 27 years to watch a flag like I did…

 

[Delediodamage]

Terrible start. That was a clear 50m penalty to Balta though that wasn’t paid. He disposed of the ball to run onto it and was held to stop his next play on the ball. That’s not a holding free, it’s 50m unless they changed the rules again?

 

[TigerImposter]

I hope people realize now that we are turtle colony. Dumma messed our club up giving up all those picks when we should've been rebuilding. Horrible to watch us now as it's replicating those 35 years of garbage.

 

[tugga]

Outmuscled
Outran
Outtackled
Outskilled
They have absolutely dominate us.
Just play all the kids and bottom out.

 

[tiger_tough]

Prestia, Dow and Taranto have 5 touches between them for a whole ****ing quarter.

 

[Neen]

Midfield horrendous. Can't exit the back 50 without helicopter kicks to the oppo and almost every forward 50 kick ends up in a Suns' defenders lap. Should be 10 goals down. Starts and ends with the mids.

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Two of the highest paid long term contracted midfielders in the comp .

 

[Black Saab]

Its the same team as last year. Our mids are slow and soft. We now have the worst forwardline in the league to go with it.

It's more than just personnel, positionally we're all at sea and the oppo are free all over the ground.

Hopefully that first QTR is a chance to get out sights adjusted and we can straighten up and hit back going forward.

 

[banzai]

Them: beautiful precision passing
Us: couldn’t hit a barn door, slow quicks easily intercepted. Always kicking in a hurry or to a contest.

Sound familiar, same as last year, just a bit worse

They cover the ground 10 times better though. Theyve made quite a few mistakes, it just wont hurt them cos they have so many more players around the ball.

 

[tropicaltiger]

dim sim has the Gold Coast defence beautifully organised, ours is a mess

 

[Rocco sifreddi]

Prestia has been cooked for 2 years
Hopper horrible by foot cost us a goal
Taranto and Dow can't get there hands on it

 

[SunshineBoy]

Btw hopper and Taranto massive recruitment blunders

Another 6 years

 

[Delorean]

Suns are playing unreal. Can't even tell if we're garbage or not because they're everywhere.

 

[DoItForCaptBlood]

Dow zero touches. Is a C grader.

 

[Groupie_]

Y’all gonna come for me I know, but trading for Taranto and hopper has set us back five years.

hopper yes

tarranto is a smaller shane tuck with shit skills which is a bit handy

 

[chriso11]

New coach, new players across the ground, and missing our 2 best by a country mile + captain..
Call this an opportunity to practice realistic thinking

 

[Vitalogy]

It starts in the middle.. win something ****ing clearances around the contest and be harder around the ball.

 

[Roksman]

Our midfield is getting absolutely smashed.

• Witts toying with Naismith
• Taranto fumbling everything
• Prestia walking around stoppage
• Dow hasn't touched the ball and is still in Melbourne
• Baker is not a mid

Senior players gone missing in Short, Broad and Grimes.

Considering all of the above, lucky not to be 50 points down.

 

[tunksy]

Gotta get our hands on the ball ffs.

Wtf is our midfield set up?

Better turn it around real quick or we will get absolutely flogged.

 

[kozi]

Prestia Taranto Hopper Dow 10 touches between them in a whole quarter playing on ball

Most farked stat I’ve seen for a while
