Review Dees v Norf: Good, Bad & Fugly

[Biffinator]

Friends, as the airlines buckle under the demand to fly spectators to Tassie for this Match of the Century, please share your thoughts after the game.

Biff not tipping a loss. I'm worried now

Has he jinxed us like he did last year when before the first Freo game he posted this thread on an alt account?

What a miserable ******* experience.

 

[schmuttt]

Petty injury sucks, moonboots are usually precautionary though so hopefully will be minor.

Take the 4 points and move on. Kozzy brilliant and I really liked Hunters game. Defence looks better with Hibbo there, think we need Tomlinson back in short term and Smith goes forward until Petty is back.

 

[netslave]

great game by our small forwards crew, pity about Petty though

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Good: We kicked 100 points and won. Ill take it
Bad: Our play in general
Ugly: Petty injury (* you Tom Sparrow

Good: Came back from a low effort start
Bad: Had a low effort start
Ugly: Petty injury

I've always said, you can't win 2 premierships with Jordan and Harmes in the side.

2nd premiership kryptonite.

 

[booshboy]

Ugly: Pettys Injury

Bad: Harmes & Jordan

Meh: Everything Else.

 

[Mijhaa]

Harmes somehow managed to out spud Jordan and put himself at the head of the que to get dropped for Oliver.

 

[Scythe94]

Good: Small forwards; responding to a horrific start

Bad: Starting like that against a horrendous team; the Jordon and Harmes combo (especially given that Jordon got enough junk time ball to probably hold his spot)

Ugly: Petty injury and next week's forward line

 

[BaliDemon]

Petty injury a bummer but fear not. there’s a silver lining to that cloud

 

[Jamurp]

Just one of those games, North in Tassie is bizarro world, still a poor match overall.

Good:

• Pegging back the margin, always felt we would, good sides do that
• Kossie was brilliant again, ANB putting together a great month, Chandler was solid, Trac great too.

Ugly:

• Clearance work still poor.
• May and Lever bedshits
• Petty injury, ******* Sparrow, learn to hit a target.
• JJ and Harmes, just no.

If you haven’t been able to tell that some of what I post about Ben Brown is tongue-in-cheek then you need to go out for a long walk and clear your head.

Since you've admitted that the Brown discourse has effectively been baiting to this point, please don't start.

 

[danster168]

Good: At least got the 4 points. That's all I got.
Bad: Not putting anyone on Ziebell.
Ugly: Being smashed by North in the first 45 minutes.

 

[PerfectFooty]

I'm sick of our players complaining to the umpires, sure you get some s**t decisions but play the ball. Never have i been more angry when May annoyed the Smith mark wasn't payed turns to the umpire that hasn't called a stop to play yet, to bitch at him. Turns his back to the play, leaves the goaline undefended, ball spills out from a ground ball and is dribbled through.

It's not just May and it's not just this team. Honestly i get it, but play to the ******* whistle

Infuriating at every level. Blokes do that in 4th grade and you see the consequences as the play moves on. Pros should be better than that

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Good: being able to watch this team concede pretty decent deficits and still being able to be fairly relaxed because you can safely expect a comeback has been one of the most satisfying elements of the last three years

I said “some” has been tongue-in-cheek, not all.

Prefer Brown over Grundy if Petty is out. JVR must have proper aerial support.

 

[Jimi]

Did Trac kick enough goals to get 3 votes?

(Have a cheeky 100 on Trac brownlow/Dees premiership at good odds)

 

[Young Redleg]

It's amazing how Pickett has had a 'down' year but has still snagged 32 goals. Shows how good he is.
