I was watching that live when it happened. The most freakish thing we'll see in sporting terms in generations.

Nick Dal Santo must be spewing. He was on the eagle, butt riding them all day. Heally was talking up Reid over McKercher at every opportunity too. I hope both of them swallow a prawn shell sideways.

Dal Santo is in the same pile of flog as that w***er Brad Johnson

Does this mean other people were watching? Now I'm embarrassed.

 

[Gasometer]

How bad are the Eagles?

14 points worse than us

 

[The Talent Scout]

What happened? Have we played yet, I don't remember the game, strange.

Healey had done his research though…or the work experience kid did…Eagles trained all week on pressure and tackling and he ran with it for 4 quarters

How he never won a Gold Logie is beyond me…

Why do we get out tackled every week?

Do the opposition want it more than the players every week?

Why do we play a game style that sees us over possess the footy and create turnover and opposition goals?

We usually dominate clearance. Maybe play a game style that sees more clearances with longer kicking towards the boundary.

As a team we can’t

• kick
• handball
• create separation
• handle the footy
• tackle

We’ve been out tackled every week for a decade

…because we play with Soccer Balls on Saturday mornings during Pre Season

I was absolutely pissed off at 3/4 time and had a gutfull of the team. I logged off and went for a walk, had Pink Floyd playing and did not hear the last quarter.

Nothing was happening up to 3/4 time, it was a listless performance and as a previous poster has stated, our defence was pretty good considering the garbage the midfield was serving up.

So I watched replay of the last quarter and it was chalk and cheese. We had a great last half of the final quarter. We won just about every contest and one on ones, we were running in waves and actually dping some team things like tap ons and shepherding.

All I can say about the win is that it's ****ing nice to be the actual team that wins with 15 minutes of footy.

We will beat Freo next week. Bookmark it. It's coming, I feel it.

Just watching highlights package on Kayo, has there ever been a highlight package that featured more points than goals

 

[Jindrrk]

Game tilted when Parker was put in the guts late 3rd qtr by memory

WCE playing that style of game were always going to get tired and thats how we won...helped that some pulled their finger out.

Should they have capitalized in the 1st half it'd been a different story...they spent all their energy on mostly points

 

[Themanbun]

Turned it off after the first quarter. If our players want to be conditional about their effort then so will I.

Which Pink Floyd Frank?

 

[Gasometer]

So was there something wrong with the ball aka Parker?

How did 4 Umpires Miss Reid throwing Sheezel to the ground at that last stoppage?

They missed Darling being tripped in the centre just after a bounce in Q4 and he was gripped in a full on headlock early in the game, competing for a mark in our goal square. They missed an eagle running through the protected zone when Larkey had that kick from 50 when he torched Pauly, but even in his worst form, Larkey would have scored from the line if the 50 was paid (eagle got one for the same thing soon after).

The umps appeared to be umpiring a different game to the one we were watching. I have no doubt they are taking orders from above through their communications devices - a point that Dal Santo and Heally mentioned today as well.

I’m watching Carlton v Essendon right now. The difference is that we play fast from impossible situations but we slow things down when we have the opposition cold. Why?

Which Pink Floyd Frank?

Animals

 

[Passmore]

Delusional

You keep keeping it real. I'll enjoy a rare victory.

 

[lockheed]

Mckercher 21 touches in the 2nd half

And 35 for the match.

 

[franjon]

I will mention it.... McDonald played very well.

He made the usual McDonald mistakes, I still can't work out how a player of his experience hasn't worked on hitting a target 20m away, but he was good in the last and put his body on the line. Frustratingly he's never going to be any better than he is but he does put his body on the line, when he's not playing kick to kick with the opposition.

Your midfield update is going to suck this week.

 

[Passmore]

At some point someone will get sick of Reid and smack him in the mouth, and cop the suspension. He didn't really do much of anything except make a knob of himself. A smartarse who obviously believes his own publicity.

He took a speccie then put the resulting kick OOF.

Oh, and I assume he had his own personal camera the amount it panned to him.
