Yes the only thing that has stopped him from having had a really good first two games has been his accuracy. Nothing to do with his size. He will get himself plenty of looks at the goals. I accept bad kicking is bad footy but there’s never been a suggestion his foot skills are a problem. It’s...
That was terrible. The scoreboard flattered us too, especially with May and Lever off. Melbourne eased off to save us from total embarrassment.
Dreadful start to the year by the coach, the captain and other important players like Lewis and Newcombe.
We can shift fringe and young players...
They love his character at the club but he’s starting to remind me of Dylan Shiel. Doesn’t impact with the ball. Works hard with defensive running at least but has little impact
It’s fair to say that Watson has missed three very kickable shots and had he slotted them, we’d be looking better on the scoreboard. It’s also fair to say that he’s playing his second game and has looked our most dangerous forward so far today. He knows how to make himself dangerous. He just...
Watson needs a breakthrough. Has the yips. Getting 3 shots at goal in a half while the side is being belted is the positive. Should have kicked at least 2 of them though
Opposition sides would love Finn being the guy who finds space late in a game with fresh legs. He’s the worst ball user on the list. He tags and aims for a nil all draw against an opposing gun or he doesn’t play. It was a coaching howler yesterday
That’s my overriding concern out of it. I thought Essendon were very unimpressive. Don’t expect we will play a lot of opponents who perform worse so it was a wasted opportunity for a win.
Nash was poor yesterday and during both pre season games. Query whether he makes room for Hustwaite whose form in pre season was much better or whether his 2023 credits are enough to hold off for a while. Yesterday Nash contributed little at the stoppages where we were killed and that’s what...
First of many games. Like every other forward except for Ginnivan his finishing wasn’t there. My annoyance rests with the veterans and leaders missing their chances, not the first gamer
Hardwick has played it brilliantly. Abandoned tigers when a full rebuild became obvious and jump on board a team with extraordinary talent through years of gifts. That suns midfield is awesome
That's a disappointing start to the season. Two sides that looked bottom 6 to me.
The leaders (on field and upstairs) had a poor day. Sicily, Lewis and Newcombe had shockers. Tactically, Mitchell made some blues. Finn, being a very low impact player, was an odd choice as sub. It didn't...
