Game thread - WCE vs Melb

In a good position for a comeback.... would have been nice to get another goal right near the end there.

Seriously we haven't looked likely, no pressure at all on Melbourne, they are scoring goals too easily and we have to work too hard for ours.

And he ran to the other end of the ground for a goal :thumbsu:

As you are aware, Spanghers problem is all about when he is in one-out marking contests. The opposition simply send his opponent to the FF line and tell there team to kick to him. He can spoil when he is third man in or runs to a stationary contest but when he is one on one he can be out-marked by anyone. Which is a big flaw in a tall defender.

He has some talent and he shows signs but its a big bloody issue....
 
Couldn't get to the game today so am half-watching the delayed telecast while listening to the game on radio - I swear I've seen Scott Selwood taken high on about 3 or 4 occasions with no joy.
 
You get the feeling Jim Stynes has had a big bearing on this match, with Melbourne themselves and the umpires.

We need to learn to mark up properly!

What does that mean?

In other threads you have criticised the lack of a game plan. The plan involves zoning which, by definition, involves not manning up in areas .... you get that?

I'd agree with that, which makes me question why he isn't being played up the ground where he did so well (was just about our best performer, without bias) in pre season.

Well that's not unusual. Until we start showing form on the road we can't expect any different.
 
Useless ****ing crab Fletcher. Can't even handball it 5m without missing his target! I hope everybody who thought he was a good inclusion is happy, he's been ****ing pathetic all day long.
