Game Day Match Discussion - RD 22 vs. Hawthorn. Thur 07/08 @ 7:30pm (MCG)

[PonsfordMagpie]

Howe being knocked out rattled us.

We look bereft of confidence. Fast turning into a wasted season at this rate.

 

[upnsmoke]

We should be packing DC’s bags and taking a top pick from West Coast.

Yes.

He doesn't win the taps or hitouts much against good rucks. The lack of contest at the middle is mind boggling.

 

[Ugene41]

Houston on Chol. Meek marking in the square. It's all over friends. Been a fun ride this season.

• Loading up with older players for one last shot has failed us.
• Slow midfield carried by Nick
• DeGoey, Howe, Frampton, McCreery injured
• Hill out and we lose 3 of 4
• Round zero is
• Predictable along the boundary game plan
• Players more worried about contracts than performing

The old players aren't the issue. These season was ruined by the arrogance of our coaches the minute they decided to mess with our winning chemistry

 

[Finnishpie]

If it keeps going this way, I wonder how many of you will apologise to Dave.

Dave and Dean.

A DD apology....

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Situation normal for this club in the whole 2nd half of the year.
The players are taking the piss, can’t defend, slow, can’t kick straight.

 

[caloschwaby]

Have had the same lessons taught to us for the past 2 months. Lobotomised players.

 

[YouBeauty]

If it keeps going this way, I wonder how many of you will apologise to Dave.

I'll write an apology in Camel Case for old mate

 

[gouki88]

McStay just not doing anything right yet again

 

[hellfire]

It’s pretty jarring to see our season dissipate over the past few weeks. We’re just completely impotent.

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

Absolutely disgraceful.

Cameron, that’s why you aren’t worth the big bucks. You can take a handy grab now and then but nowhere near it against the top echelon of rucks.

Moore and McStay, why not switch them both around in the 3rd?

Neither have given a yelp.

 

[Tista7000]

We are cooked, can't tackle, can't chase, can't win a contest, can't hit a target going forward.

Can't see us turning it around.

Only so many magnets you can move.

 

[DWil6]

Worst quarter we have played this season.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Absolutely zero impact from the coaches btw. Continue with the same old shit in midfield and make no changes to the setup. Crisp, Schultz, Josh, Houston… try something ffs.

Conservatism is an absolute cancer.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Embarrassing.

 

[doofdoof]

Eddie Betts special comments are first class compared to Collingwood's footy tonight

 

[gouki88]

That 2nd quarter was despicable from the moment Elliott missed his two shots

 

[Mick F]

Betting agencies no longer taking wagers on Hawks.

 

[gtrain23]

Newcombe u smug piece of S**T

 

[AmericanMustard]

Wouldn’t be surprised if Hawks have an injury payment like the ravens did in the NFL. The way Newcombe was smiling at Howe’s concussion

**** these Tassie campaigners are unbearable

 

[BigVic]

Shambles. Geelong are coasting to the easiest flag ever with a cheat code

a premiership player, Bazlenka a potential Brownlow Medalist before Nick. What a failure.

, Laura Kane and Andrew Dillon feeding Jez 100 goals

 

[Kurtles]

Just have to really savour 2023 and appreciate how difficult it is to get there and win.

Our form has totally flipped, Howe so critical

 

[satty]

The team looks mentally shot. There is no effort whatsoever. They used to play with purpose, now it is all just structure less.

Just running around like headless chooks.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Looking to consolidate ladder position, nah why bother

 

[upnsmoke]

No bobby and beau is noticeable.

There’s so little danger in our quick small crumbing forwards.

Forget the forwards.. it's the midfield. There is no pressure or at least the pressure is low.

Hawks are getting so many entries from the middle corridor. It's blatant.

 

[Rusty Beam]

I feel like that flog almost killed howe then gets to come back on and plays his best game all year

There was absolutely nothing wrong with the contest. Wtf are you on about?
