I am not sure about the call, from some people, to bring Laurie in. He needs to dominate in the VFL for a while as he has done nothing at top level
I think they should keep going with Turner so for me the only player in danger is Billings. Which would be Woewodin or Hunter.
What makes this worse is that Players are full time as well. A two sided player who can kick = $$$ in this day and age so I am surprised more don't have this skill.
Most (many?) umpires are part time. I can scream all I like about poor umpiring, which I don't, but they will never improve...
I would say the right team won, that being Port, you got to turn up for all four quarters. If Geelong had of done that they would have had a comfortable win.
Cats are not a garbage team though, I feel, which they showed by coming back like that.
With the other game. Fremantle going to be...
I am totally on board for this. I think he really is just building every game worth keeping him in. In hindsight I feel Bowey should have been the sub.
Ugly
Absolute horrible first quarter AND that is the big issue that they need to take away from this.
Good
But after that I thought Melbourne was the better team more so in the second half so I don't feel they deserved to lose this but you can't give up a first quarter like that.
Really happy...
Right now it is 16 scoring shots to 15 and I feel (unpopular) that Melbourne has been the better team after that first quarter.
Just killed the team that first quarter blitz.
I just can't watch Gold Coast anymore. It's like that guy is super talented who passes to that guy that is super talent to that guy who is just elite. And they get curb stomped.
Also, considering that:-
These five players are ALL under 20 games. And I thought they all contributed heavily:-
Turner = 5 games
Windsor = 8 games
Howes = 8 games
Woewodin = 10 games
Hore = 17 games
I thought Lever was BOG.
Petty just got better as the game went on so I think next week we might start to see the best of him.
Windsor was one of the best players for Dees tonight. They just nailed that pick.
Special mention to Woewodin I thought he did well and even though Turner did not...
Without looking too much at the stats this seems like another game Melbourne are the better team but can't convert. A number of players are invisible out there as well. So there is a real room for the team to step up on the last quarter.
I feel the Billings experiment is over as well.
Pretty good quarter and a fair result.
JVR had an excellent quarter.
Petty is all over the place but did kick a goal.
Looks like Petracca will be tagged out of the game.
It does worry me when it comes to contested ball that there always seems to be 3 more Geelong players.
