2nds Glenelg vs Port Adelaide - Round 1 @ Glenelg

[Rising Power]

Must be nice having more than 1 player over 25

 

[PJ Power]

Have fallen away here after a good first quarter. We've conceded the last four goals. Our backs can't go with their marking taller forwards. Up forward, we're kicking to 1 vs 2 contests and the ball is getting rebounded too easily and we're not defending across the ground too well. Sweet has been good. Sinn and Georgiades busy. Scully not into it yet. Lorenz the best of the first year players. Anastosopoulos and Charleson a bit rattled in my opinion - disappointed with both so far. Walsh is prone to a lot of clangers but attacks the footy hard.

Horrible kick by anasta

 

[Buget]

Previously we have had a good midfield in the SANFL and nothing else,now we have the complete opposite. Why would you play top up players in there ahead of AFL listed players?

Because there are no AFL listed pure mids.

Jackson is injured, Mead is in the AFL team, Sinn and Williams are half back and the 1st year smalls are forwards. The only one who is a midfielder is Narkle.

Seems to be a gameplan/structure issue since the AFL side is also very leaky and allows for easy rebound goals

Logan Evans has no *in brain

 

[Portmagpies36]

Sanfl commentators done my head in already. I'm having to go silent mode

Counting down the days before we leave this overrated tin pot league.

 

[PJ Power]

So many free kicks conceded. Once it gets into their forward line, they mark everything virtually uncontested. We're the opposite. We can't find Scully or Georgiades and fail to kick to their advantage.

 

[JUSTWORK]

Less than second rate rate really. Absolutely pathetic this quarter, after what was a reasonably strong start.

 

[PJ Power]

Horrible kick by anasta

Surprisingly sloppy both when kicking and handling the footy so far.

You’re right we’ve missing mead but sinn can and should be getting some centre square minutes, particularly when we need some pace and skill

Sinn Williams and Narkle could all go through the midfield

 

[philthy05]

How can a player handball to himself , then get caught, and not get done for htb?

 

[gbear]

That was better.

 

[Marat]

Great snap from Georgiades

 

[Coobk001]

Handballing to your teammate would solve it. It should punish them for having poor skills.

Na, that's exactly the problem with the rule. It's an imperfect game, played with a ball that is not predictable or easy to control. Bad disposals that are only slightly off, shouldn't be penalized like that in our game. It's stupid and against the fabric of it. The rule is a joke and needs to go.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Georgie’s back

 

[JUSTWORK]

MG showing he’s a class above

 

[RossFC]

Good crumb by Georgiades and snaps from 40, he’s got 2!

Down 46 to 34 17mins into the 2nd

 

[PJ Power]

Excellent goal from Georgiades. He has looked good. Scully is competing but just can't stick his marks or get free. Too often competing for marks against multiple opponents or out of position.

 

[Rising Power]

Obviously if we want to compete, Cleary goes to McBean instead of Walsh but Walsh learning quickly on a dominant forward and trying Cluz on the wing takes priority.

 

[PJ Power]

Sinn Williams and Narkle could all go through the midfield

It's as though, we've stopped trying to develop any more midfielders because we know we have Butters, JHF and Rozee holding the midfield positions for the next 10 years. Would love to see some AFL-listed players put in the guts here.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

We cannot keep Georgiades in the SANFL.

 

[philthy05]

Great kick by Williams , almost a mark by Scully and anasta smart kick off the ground to Georgiades playing in front.
