Opinion Changes vs Geelong

[PowerBaz]

Let’s say Orazio does play and we win, with his injury luck he’s the kinda guy that plays next week and does knee in the opening 1min. It’s going to happen within the next 5 games, he couldn’t even get through an SANFL game.

 

[raptalia]

Has Fantasia actually played a full game this season? I know he was selected for the Port Magpies but didn't make it out onto the ground.

Surely the sensible thing is to give Orazio a couple of full games at SANFL level just to prove he can get through a game. Then again common sense is not something we associate with Port selection of late.

He played a full game as an unactivated sub.

Think he played that last SANFL game, but in the training after the game did something that's kept him out the last 3 weeks.

At some point the season will unravel.

It did, at 0-5. Somehow though we have never been as well-coached...

Fantasia’s conditioning would be at Elon Musk On A Boat level.

 

[DaTBird187]

Fantasia is the Port Adelaide Todd Rixon.

 

[AFC AFeederClub]

the 1st thing Geelong are gonna do it throw a tag on rozee, it will be interesting how he handles it but i think at this point in time he will struggle because these guy have pretty much never had any sort of tag on them at all through their whole time playing and it takes getting use to. More importantly i think it means our scoring will dry up because its rozee's form that has been the barometre of us playing good in certain times during games.

Hey hey hey if we had his coin I’d probably enjoy takeaway more often too, from a boat, in Spain….

Again? Or just like the first 5 rounds?

 

[Lefti93]

Houston needs a game in the sanfl aswell for that ******* weak effort ..

Gutless

completely unacceptable effort.

 

[Lefti93]

there's just no words at this point for an Orazio call up, i am without speech.

 

[HHHAMMERtime]

Or shoot his dog, but then again Ken might take that as a favor depending on how quick it is.

Underrated post.

He got through the whole game against Glenelg. I held my breath every time I saw him waiting for him to break but it just didn’t happen.

 

[raptalia]

On last week's effort Georgiades should go back to the SANFL but as his replacement is likely to be Motlop or Fantasia he may as well stay in the side for the experience.

They will bash him physically.

He's hard to tag but whether he can play through pain and physical treatment is yet to be seen.

It's already happening. This notion oppo coaches take a year to cotton on to break out players and try to stop them is a bit silly, it happens in weeks. Connor has put together 10-12 weeks of league leading footy and has been bashed for half of it.

a hard tag is a bit different becaue they spend their whole time trying to stop you from getting the ball. Most midfielders will get bashed if the opportunity arises but thats just a product of putting your head over the ball. A hard tag isnt about bashing them up

Connor is almost impossible to hard tag. He is too quick and agile for any one player to sit on. Plus he can swing forward to break the tag. Also the 'stopper' has gone the way of the ruck rover in our game. I can't think of a dedicated tagger since Crowley retired. Yes there are defensive mids but they still have to get the ball themselves.

taggers are highly under-rated, especially the good ones of which crowley wasnt. People carry one about midfielders ripping games apart yet refused to put a tagger on them because of some mythical midfield system that wont work if you are nullifying the oppo's best player. Its nonsense and its rubbish, thats not to say you need a tagger for every match but there is certainly a place for them. I think GWS twice put deboer on Martin at the height of his powers and he totally destroyed him, last week geelong put MB in cripps and it was a very large reason why they won and Geelong have been putting o'connor as their main tagger for the past 2 years. Just ask Brisbane how Kane totally nullified Black in the grand final and usually it was Michael Voss who Kane tagged out of the game. As for Connor he could easily be tagged, thats the beauty of the tagger, they dont have to posses the skill of the player their following.

Wasn't sure exactly where to post this, but it's about the geebung game. Bassett in today's Fertiliser





If said 'Ferrari' is totally unroadworthy and covered in cobwebs and guano, it wasn't really on the road in the first place

 

[PA John]

Reeks of desperation. Will make them look really stupid when he blows up half way through the game so I hope they do it.

Fantasia on his podcast said he'll be playing against Centrals.

Not a gamer

Is Centrals an enemy on World of Warcraft or Fortnight?

Or a pasta making/cooking technique?

I'm confused
