Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XIII

Carlisle could be in for a bit of a holiday after taking out Riewoldt.

 

[AcuteWhistle]

Piss poor game of football so far.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Be good if Jack misses next week with concusion

 

[VelvetSledge]

Remember how getting rid of Stringer was gonna solve the Dogs problems, cure aids and get peace in the middle east?

Good to see 2 of those things are still a chance.

Underrated post imo

Richmond can play like this next week if they like..

 

[JayJ20]

Richmond have been pretty ordinary today. St Kilda are just too bad to capitalise on it.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Shocking review.. gotta overturn that.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Saints were $8 before the game started

 

[Macca18]

Despite the Tigers looking really ordinary at times today, we really want them winning this game...

On the rebound after two losses in a row next week? Umm... no thanks.

 

[Mercurial89]

Tigers starting to drop off physically and their gamestyle cant cover it as well as teams starting to figure them out.

Riewoldt out with no replacement hurts them so much.

Why?
If we can beat a tigers team at their full pressuring best then that is a good audit on our team.
If we lose we are exactly where many assume we are.

Saints are looking really plucky today; quite surprised.

Eagles showed the blueprint

Eagles showed the blueprint

Keeping it off them was always the obvious way to play them. The issue is that they normally pressure so well that it causes errors.

I question whether physically they can keep this up, especially if they start losing soldiers.

 

[Doss]

Geez Martin is good...

 

[Mercurial89]

That cotchin pickup deserved a goal. Incredible

 

[AcuteWhistle]

A few cracks showing for the Tiges imho, recall seeing similar in 2001 with our mob as the season rolled on, the hunger is still there but requires a bit more work to kick in on game day. They will win well today in the end but up until 5 minutes ago the Saints were a legit chance if they just coulda got that next goal.

Dont see back to back happening.

 

[Drummer_19]

I mean, they lost a game in Perth and have been two down since early in the game coming off the 6 day break. Might not be time to bring out the cracks are showing stuff.

I was even more impressed with them considering this.

I don't want to imagine what would happen to us if we lost 2 players of similar importance to Jack and Houli so early.

They did play St.Kilda tho,Saints dominated the Tigers in the second half just couldn't put it on the score board with thier skills also letting them down.

 

[DapperDon]

Now is the time for a slump if they had to have one. Not sure sides have figured them out exactly they have just taken the foot off the pedal.

 

[Stopher]

They're going fine but we still might catch them at a reasonable time next week.

Of all the unique traditions our sport has, I’d have to say the indigenous guernseys is my favourite.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Reaaallly want the Lions to get up..

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Brisbane looking alot better than bottom 2.
Great pressure around the ball so far.
