JLT2 - Game Day Thread

[Roovolution]

I'm bummed in not getting the 4 points yesterday. Had everything to play for, a lot to prove, and a step backwards.

Oh wait...

They should start giving out 4 points for JLT games....oh wait then that’d be the same as the regular season. Mmmm. At least Port got bragging rights and are now ahead in the Showdown count.....oh wait. Well at least Port won a JLT game after losing to West Coast AGAIN!

Just a question - was Watts that good or were your defenders having an "off" day, or a bit of both?

I actually didn’t even watch the game so hopefully someone else can answer that for you.

 

[Elite Crow]

I wonder if Sam has gone on another cruise?

He was pretty good but Hartigan was pathetic.

 

[Donkey Magoo]

Lol, what poor one-sided analysis on a player who was one of our best.

Just give up talking about Doedee as it is making you look foolish.

Marty on Doedee to become the new NTRabbit on Crouch Inc.

What’s was very opportunistic and finished well. Once he got some confidence he was up and about.
Game of 2 halves- we’re either really unfit or we mix it up in the second half.

I really want to like hartigan

Harto is a panic merchant and very inconsistent. He can shut down Robbie Gray one game and then get embarrassed by a soft Jack Watts.

Sauce Douglas Betts Greenwood
Sauce Betts Greenwood Matt
Sauce Matt Gibbs no third midfielder??

Not a great deal of variation in there. How much better will we look when we mix it up, Crouches X 2 Sloane Gibbs Douglas CEY Greenwood etc. even possibly Gibson if we want to tag a Danger.

We rely heavily on big Sauce, is he our MVP purely because of the gulf to the next man up for his position?

Of 15 centre square bounces...

12 Jacobs
11 Greenwood
9 Crouch
7 Gibbs
6 CEY
4 Sloane
3 Jenkins
1 MIA, Douglas, Betts

So we were trying to get game time into Greenwood... whilst comfortable resting Sloane.

 

[FR0GGY]

What?

 

[Roovolution]

Just got around to watching the highlights. Didn’t realise there was only 3 points the difference with ten minutes remaining in the game. Geez after seeing all the Port flogs flooding our board you’d think they’d just won a real showdown by 83 points.

Training is good but there is nothing like game time to improve fitness, Greenwood will be a lot better for the run.

 

[Elite Crow]

What?

Alex -Sam -Jenkins4 went on a cruise, after Jenkins game yesterday they may have gone again.

 

[footy4ever]

Do you ever have a thought other than all is great?

Don’t be an idiot. I tire of the constant overreaction is all.

 

[footy4ever]

It was 35 degrees in the shade yesterday and probably 45-50 in the centre of the ground.. we were playing a team on their home turf.. we were trialing a lot of different structures after half time and playing a few new guys in the team.. it was the first real hit out for many of our leaders..:. and it was a trial match.

That’s what I was saying...basically, except for the heat bit.

 

[Stiffy_18]

Looks like we'll have to fight for a Fog debut.

That is fantastic!

 

[Elite Crow]

Don’t be an idiot. I tire of the constant overreaction is all.

We went into this season with concerns on who was going to replace Smith and Cameron and we still have those concerns and the season starts in 2 weeks.

Yesterday Port ran us off our feet.

It’s not an overreaction to believe this is still a concern.

 

[Markthirtytwo2]

Training is good but there is nothing like game time to improve fitness, Greenwood will be a lot better for the run.

I don't think he's the only one in that regard. Sloan, Kelly, Talia Hartigan, Betts all very rusty.

Also didn't we start later than everyone else due to making the GF?
