Murph and Simmo starred

[The Old Dark Navy's]

A few players showed something out there. Murph was great, Simmo a four quarter leader, Thomas was good I thought. Maybe Pendlebury was on the bench a lot during the game because I didn't see him much at all until the last.

Crowley was awful I thought, Foley didn't seem to do much, Brennan was pretty good, Thompson the best kick of the ball out there.

First post for me. Think Hellfire is grabbing at straws with Pendles. I thought that leading a comeback included scoreboard pressure. Yeh, it was great he finally got some of the ball, but to be part of a comeback, when a chance comes by you need to finish. ( Or at least look like you could)

At the risk of sounding simple, how do you quote someone?

Aim up Bhoys.

Nice start and welcome, AZZA. Just click on quote at the bottom right and away you go. Not sure if there are any restrictions on you for the first month or so. Go Blues.

You realise this is international rules right?

You really had me laughing.

Murphy was outstanding, he and Pendlebury turned it on in the last quarter (Murphy more so, but Pendles whether you like it or not did it too) and led the comeback. Not sure how you can say he was missing targets all night, when he was only really seen in the last quarter, where he was hitting his targets. Shame he can't kick for goal too well with the round ball.

Didn't think much of Simpson at all, but Murphy was brilliant.

I have to agree with Hellfire it is international rules and counts for little. Pendles is a sublime talent and you would have to be very very happy you got him at five. Who is better out of him or Murphy time will tell.

I was at the game on Friday, and ur bloody pendlebury fudged the game up missing that simple over in the last minutes! Mined you its not just pendleburys fault, Bock was atrocious All the Aussie fans ( me aswell ) were yelling at him to piss off back to adeliade u useless bastard!

Our boys were in the top 3 with boomer

You mean WC could have.

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

Not sure where Pendlebury is from, but we might have given them Bower instead, being another WA boy.

Its got me stuffed as to why the Australian team wouldn't select someone who was a very promising soccer goalkeeper to play IN GOALS for the country, rather than Bock who obviously had no idea what he was doing.

Who am i talking about? HAMPSON.

Seems simple to me.

 

[murphy3]

I thought Hampson was a striker. Which is why everyone was talking about his freakish athleticism being a 200cm+ striker

 

[Jeremias]

Hampson was a striker.

Peter Crouch MKII.

 

[Sublime]

He did play up front, but also received some coaching between the sticks.

 

[DamianBis]

I reckon any previous soccer player (especially a Goal Keeper) would be a better choice than someone who hasn't played soccer.

 

[Sublime]

Goalkeeping is all about cutting down angles and keeping your body as 'big' as possible. Something an AFL footballer wouldn't have any clue about. Those goals the other night could have been dealt with by anyone with half a clue of what was going on.
