How was that not holding the ball?

 

[Nathan Barley]

Surely this North team shouldn’t be this bad

North getting away with more drops than the bulldogs

 

[Nathan Barley]

Excellent kick by Gilder after a drop from us which should’ve been holding the ball

Yes, umps almost never pay it at this level.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Pretty handy stats from our boy Gallop at half time, got the 1 goal but 8 disposals(1 a handball0, 5 marks, 3 tackles and a clearance are damn good... pity about the 3 behinds.

I don't give any credence to hit out stats, he has 6 of them, can't see hit outs to advantage stats.

One of those behinds was a dribbler from the boundary as he was going out of bounds, you can forgive that one but he missed two relatively easy shots for goal too. But he'll improve.

Commentators are bad as usual, just heard "Dylan" Robertson is up to 15 disposals.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

The commentator is right that Shagga is like a young Linc and has his aerial prowess, but Shagga really needs to develop the defensive pressure Linc brought if he wants a regular place at AFL level.

Marshall having an off day

 

[Nathan Barley]

Are we sure that isn’t Connor McFadyen?

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Are we sure that isn’t Connor McFadyen?

Quite sure, since he's named at CHB for Sturt tomorrow.

 

[Mr Ripper]

I see O’Gorman’s skill set works just as well at the lower level.

 

[iBeng]

Surely we hold on, right?

Right?

 

[Nathan Barley]

Surely we hold on, right?

Right?

Yes

Yes

 

[Nunez]

Not watching but ZZ stats looking good. Has he been decent in the ruck?

I was just going to say I've been impressed with him rucking all day. Perhaps he's found his niche

 

[Mr Ripper]

Absolute slopfest of a last quarter.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Surely we hold on, right?

Right?

The comeback is annoying, but they still need 5 goals.

Odd, I felt like Goad has had his number.

I see our VFL boys are just like our AFL side, giving up plenty of cheap goals in the last quarter after being comfortably ahead.

 

[iBeng]

4 goals in it...

 

[Nathan Barley]

4 goals in it...

Thanks BT

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

JFC how many frees have we conceded this quarter

 

[Johnny Bananas]

The number of frees we give up in the forward line is staggering.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Goal there would've made it interesting

 

[iBeng]

FREE KICK NORTH

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Should be safe from here but would love to see the free kick tally for the quarter. Not saying they weren't there
