Was the victim of the hands in the back rule. Was absolutely owned by Otto today however i did feel for him when a free kick was given against him for hands in the back and it wasn't there.

Overall not a good match for him.

Tried and had a couple of sh it decision go against him but struggled to impose in any way.....but what else is ********en new ?

Gas had a shocker. FWIW I reckon the stay-at-home full backs are all on death row with these new hands-in-the-back rule interpretations.
I think we all knew Gas was running around for the final time in 2007. Now it's certain.

Agree 100%.

had the rules been the same as last year otto would of only kicked around 3.

 

[Stripes666]

He was aweful. I find it hard to picture who he could possible stop. Can't see him adjustring to new rules.

aghh, yes and No, was let down by a soft midfield, applying little pressure on Cats streaming down the ground...wasnt ehre but did TW have an extra man in defence that he normally goes with in season proper?

Ottens did actually play pretty well and would have kicked his 3 or 4 on just about anyone today...so Gas, shocker....well lets say he wasnt the best,,,but blaming him would be misplaced

 

[PLSC]

free kicks are to be expected from subpar but when he let raines get murdered that was unforgivable

its funny when people say we have no else but then pat each other on the back at our past draft picks

PLEEEASE Thursty hurry up and get back to fitness and form!

 

[Truetiger]

Best thing to do:

Sack Gasper now.
Promote Howat in his spot.
And bring up another Rookie to replace Coughlan



Gasper Stop thinking about youself and your cash handouts. Put the club first you idiot. To keep you on our list is a very very costly move. Surely the role of a backman is to help the other players down there dont be shy to leave ur own man to help others.

On today's performance I would drop him from the team. Let Polak and Bowden be the KPP's. At best he is a just a scragger nowadays, but he is still a liability when he has the ball. Ray Hall may be a better option, and that is saying something!

 

[Terry Tan]

Gawn.

 

[True Thylacine]

Gawn.

Is this a contest to see who knows the least about the game of AFL football? We get absolutely belted in the centre, midfield and stoppages all day courtesy of no rucks and and its the full backs fault? Dear me....disappointing

 

[PHX]

Cmon you still cant tell me Gas had a good game at all??

At least Polak fought back a fair bit.

Excellent call.

And the older blokes (Gas, Richo, Johnson etc) arent going to be at peak fitness this time of the season anyway. So if they looked a bit sluggish that could well be why.

He only had four kicked on him and anyone could see some of those free kick decisions we're crap, but its something every club is going to have to put up with.

unfortunately, i think you are right. looked slow and awkward, and kicking skills were pure gasper out of defence when he got it.

 

[deliberate!!]

At least Andy Kellaway could think and was proactive...
The amount of times Kellaway popped up with a saving piece of play
was infinite... a diving save.....an unexpected mark....a correct punch...

Gaspar couldn't think his way around a roundabout...

Come home Andy......Terry says he's sorry!!

We got rid of Ottens for the same reason as we should have gotten rid of Gas.

Plays for himself and not the team.

Anyone who thinks it was a good reason to get rid of Ottens, should want Gaspar out as well.

 

[PLSC]

ottens had trade value

gaspar belongs in a bin

 

[Croat tiger]

Bubble boy's career went down the toilet once he did that knee.

 

[Darth_Tiger]

i thought he fought the game out alright in the second half. he WAS under alot of presure with thier midfield dominance. he will have to improve alot though if he wants to stay in the team. jury still out for mine.

Mooney kicks 4 goals on Polak and there is chatter about Polak making an encouraging debut.

Ottens kicks 4 on Gaspar and there are calls to sack Gaspar and outright condemnation of him.

I think sometimes people see what they want too. We want Polak to be a success and have done well - so that is what we see. We want Gaspar replaced and are so used to him being a scapegoat - so that is what we see.

Not a fair comparison.

Gaspar we know all about. Polak we are still to learn about.

One gets ridden for past indiscretions, the other gets a chance before judgement is passed

that is partly true, however polak generated significant drive out of defence, whereas gaspars sole purpose was to stop ottens. although i should point out that we cant fully blame him because he clearly did not get enough support from the midfield or the other defenders.
