Game Day AFL Round 1 - Matchday Discussion Geelong@Collingwood (MCG – 7:50PM)

[BringouttheGimp]

Stephenson still in contiki tour mode.. this ain't fairstar the **** ship re.. do something

 

[MagpieJoel]

So where were Cox or Grundy?
They should have taken the mark.

Probably on the line, or possibly the bench.

 

[Mattwj81]

Come on pies we can do this side by side guys

 

[sirlothie]

Treloar needs 3 more clangers to get the AFL/VFL record for most clangers ever recorded in a game.

Hmmm.

I'd take that bet.

 

[biggiemediums]

Had such a shitty week; was looking forward to this - not a happy fan, right now. Sure; teams have off days but this is lazy. There's f all effort right now. Like I said - any other job and there are consequences. These kids have no idea how lucky they are.

 

[sirlothie]

Were just an ordinary football team at the moment - really battling, regular poor execution of even simple skills, poor decision making, lack of pressure through the midfield, poor movement into F50 and poor forward structure / leading patterns.

If it wasn't for Elliott we'd be in real trouble here, instead of the game just being in the balance.

A good side works through their struggles and finds a way to win games like these - let's see if we measure up...

p.s. The most telling thing for mine is how poorly were doing in the little things such as the lack of talk or shepherding for players who have been hot - even this one small thing we're not doing well has cost us two goals in the third quarter alone. If we don't start doing the the little things better than we have been to this point then we might be heading for another first round loss.

Well at least we can play this bad and still be level. If Bucks gets them right for the last we should shit it in then.

 

[biggiemediums]

What do people honestly see in Aish? I just don't get it. He's small, he's weak, he's not particularly fast, he's never had a four quarter performance... I just don't understand it.

 

[Black_White]

Probably on the line, or possibly the bench.

I just think it shows a bit of misunderstanding about how these guys need to position/back up their teammates.

 

[Gaben]

Gez Aish ****ing sucks

 

[swoop42]

Need our much vaunted midfield to step up.

 

[GreekLunatic]

We miss Adams we need his grunt

 

[biggiemediums]

Good to see we're back to the pre 2018 pies who just blindly bomb it into the 50.

 

[good4footy]

Not sure if the players and coaches have noticed but it is a slippery ball. Treat it as a wet weather game and get it forward. No fancy handballs backwards where we fumble.

 

[mike123]

How in the world does Mayne play over Sier.

EFA

 

[Black_White]

Should have paid contact with legs umpire.
That would stop that action.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Stevic is a prick of an ump

 

[cakewalk_1]

We go sooooooooooo wide and the cats go bang with one long kick and it’s in their fwd 50m

 

[Gaben]

What do people honestly see in Aish? I just don't get it. He's small, he's weak, he's not particularly fast, he's never had a four quarter performance... I just don't understand it.

I'm convinced the people that support him on Bigfooty are his family members. **** he is underwhelming

 

[Vedder]

Get Stevo back in fwd line

 

[Black_White]

Umpire knew he stuffed up and did the even up 50.
Making it up as they go.

 

[Gaben]

How the **** was the first one not 50????

 

[biggiemediums]

Stevic is a prick of an ump

Hard to get a good umpire; when to their bosses they're literally ****ing faultless. I've never seen a more protected species in any sport.

 

[Black_White]

Geezus f’ing Christ!
How do you miss that?

 

[ksardog]

I really like DeGoey being thrown into the middle for a burst. He makes things happen.

 

[carndapies]

I feel as though mayne panics everytime he gets the ball and tries to makes it another players problem
