Game Day North Vs *

[Only Forwards]

Words can't describe what an awful game of football this is Dumb and Dumber. I literally cannot identify how North are trying to win. I've seen junior teams with a more definite style of play.

Total and utter lack of cohesion across all lines.

 

[BigRedRoo]

I'm starting to think that we should just line up 18 players in the D50.

 

[danj]

Yep, 30 frees for the half - makes for a great spectacle ….

There should be some sort of rule that says if your more than 20metres from the contest and you’re not the officiating umpire you can’t call a free kick

 

[muttley45]

Looks like Braddles winge to HQ about the umpires is paying handsome dividends, that looked like a bad Hamstring tendon to Arch, hope not, the 3 week suspension really f'd up his season.

 

[grimface_87]

I gotta say I'm surprised at all the umpiring discussion.

Here at the ground I didn't think it's really been much a factor

It's pretty bad on TV

 

[krakouers]

Well lucky for the top 25 players in this year's draft they won't have to worry

Till we trade in next years and the years after for pick 20

This has some merret as a strategy

 

[andana]

You guys know Hawthorn were 0-5 last year?

It will turn

Might be 2044 but it will turn

They make me sick

8 wins this year
Hang tough

The darkest hour .....

Few issues which nobody talks about.

- ‘The Kids’…… they just aren’t that good. Every club has youth, ours simply aren’t that good.

- How many players do we have that constantly get injured? Archer is another one, body cannot handle AFL football.

and Darling are a disaster.

 

[thumping]

Just so over this club and the absolute gutter performances. My partner said it’s just sport and she’s right but **** me - it’s just the same shit week after week, year after year.

Every year you think surely this’ll be the year we get better and every year it’s the same. I won’t be watching the second half and I won’t be watching next week. I suppose this is the cost of caring.

I came here to post the same thing! It’s just a depression fest these days watching our Roos.

 

[archereleven]

Dead set, this is terrible.
We are going nowhere.

No movement in front of the ball, no movement on turnover, no hunger for the contest, no confidence to take the game on. Basically witches hats.

 

[shintemaster]

One of the worst displays I’ve ever seen. Shades of that Adelaide game years ago. The umps could pay 3 straight 50m penalties to us and we’d try to switch the ball 12m from goal.

 

[Jonnoo]

The worry is if/when players lose faith in this Clarko “game plan”, whatever it is. Maybe they already have

Can I please have some of what you’re on

 

[TheKanga]

Why are we just so fundamentally crap? Why?

Because they don't care and also losers mentality.

 

[Roosurgence]

Should just get the doctor to report it as a concussion.

3 weeks to the Essendon flog

 

[William Caresser]

Play your debut as a forward and get 16 forward entries in a half.

 

[LB2Snake]

I gotta say I'm surprised at all the umpiring discussion.

Here at the ground I didn't think it's really been much a factor.

I don’t think it’s been the umpires. We are just garbage.

 

[travelli]

We only have a few guys who come out to play.

Where do we go now but nowhere?

Oh wake up, my love. My lover wake up.

 

[Moti]

Dead set, this is terrible.
We are going nowhere.

No movement in front of the ball, no movement on turnover, no hunger for the contest, no confidence to take the game on. Basically witches hats.

Clarko cannot coach and Rawlings can't recruit. Good setup for a footy team.

 

[chickenonachain]

After about 20 long bombs into our forward line for sfa.
I can’t stop thinking what’s the definition of insanity?

 

[Snowy off the Tram]

You know what we are good at, celebrating player debut announcements.
That's it.

We’re also pretty good at high-fiving a bloke who’s taken a mark in the forward 50 - or won a free (occasionally it happens) - and who then roosts it OOB on the full …

 

[andana]

Can I please have some of what you’re on

I'm on angry.
No pills required

 

[The Nostradamus]

now we have to put up with a half of butcher bailey also

 

[nelroo]

Turn on the telly for a quick look with 3 minutes remaining in the 2nd. High Free kick given away, CZ turn over due to lack of awareness and slow reaction time, Essendon loose players everywhere. Four goals down. That’s enough for me . Done.
