Game Day Rd 2 Adelaide V Geelong, Fri 22nd Mar 2024 7:40pm @ Adelaide Oval

[Live in hope]

transition breaking down with kicks to intercepts

Answer is more running in transition and switching if needed.

Our talls need to ensure they at least bring the ball to ground. A few half hearted efforts to get to the contest to spoil. Stewart the exemplar, as usual.

I’m keen to know what role Clark plays better than anyone in the team.

The best Jhye?

Jordan Clark is not ready for AFL, he trys but is being pushed around like a rag doll. Tuohy turned a positive field position into a negative one by taking so long to make a decision. Tomahawk just has to try harder when he is the only big man in a contest. On a number of occasions he just let the opposition players take uncontested marks. It's a long time bad habit of his so I don't expect it to change. Geelong looked totally stuffed in the second quarter, players standing around and watching their opponents take control. Another effort like that second quarter and Geelong is cactus. How that blatant push in the back to Dempsey wasn't paid is a mystery. His opponent jumped on his back and rode him into the turf. Umpires obviously scared to pay free kicks against Adelaide.

That's Freo's problem then.

Wow so much negativity here
We're up by 2 goals interstate with a few key players out
Yes we were up against it that quarter but there's plenty to be positive about and if we switch on this half we can get a great away scalp

 

[Interdimensional Bigfoot]

Looks like we're falling into the same stuff from last year, locked in down back and can't move it forward.

He's still forging a decent career at Freo though.

Never has a two goal lead at half time against an interstate opponent away felt so precarious.

Just a Youngster!!

 

[Play it Sam]

Clark not ready. Not quite strong enough yet. Need to convert better to stay in it here.

I wouldnt be berating Clark- far too many others need to get involved tonight.
Dempsey, Holmes, SDK etc.
Maybe this half, think we're going to find the groove, to be honest.

In fairness his role would’ve changed dramatically with Bruhn and Atkins out

 

[OddYears]

Clark legged No free they goal

 

[catpremier 07]

On SM-N986B using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[hoopla]

“Could have been legged”. Ya think!!!

 

[fpm84]

Legged??

 

[BigCat1]

Getting an absolute reeming in any 50 50 decision. How was Clark not legged

 

[Mattlock]

No replay either..

 

[D BRIDGE]

ROB just taps it wherever he wants in these ball ups.

 

[dazbroncos]

Well that lead disappeared fast.

GO CAtters

 

[Bunnings]

Toilet and teeth

 

[catters05]

Geez

 

[D BRIDGE]

Stanley is a liability

 

[hoopla]

What a joke. Another dubious free kick out of the middle.

[Footy_Fan2007]

Poor defending letting Fogarty barge through like that

 

[catempire]

That’s the ball game. Zero resistance.

 

[Finknottle]

lol, I meant Jhye Clark and he is having a shocker
