Gave Cripps some really high praise for that kick to Hurn as well. I'm shocked!
Bullshit, the only reason I mentioned my mate was to highlight off the camera running.
His DE was 80% so don't try rubbish s**t that he kept turning it over. As I've stated already, his first HTB call was the only of his 3 frees against that was what you'd say "classic Masten"
I swear our supporter base gets dumber every year, or perhaps it's just shining through with everyone's ease of access to the internet.

Ball in hand wasn’t the problem. The contest was.

Negative. We took Dom Sheed when Patrick Cripps was available .
I dont even know you anymore
We dont have a best 22 we only have about best 10

He’s normally a good kick
For me watching him chase and back his burst of speed was heart Warming
Hopefully he does that all season - as his kicking just had an off night - it happens

+ Naitanui = M.D.E.
+ LeCras playing like a small forward. Your move Cripps.
+ Always good to get the debut over with. Whilst none of them were outstanding in any measure, Watermans goal in a crucial time was great, Venables looked like he wants to take the game on and Ryan looks he could be a player too.
+ rallying from being down in the third was great and unexpected.
- midfielders and forwards not really offering more than their arms in the air asking for the ball when we're held up at half back. There's no movement by the players to create space, leading to kicks down the line
- the lack of willingness to take the game on through run and playing on. We've been like this since Woosha. We're a kick-mark-kick team. It's highly frustrating.
- We looked slow and a little unfit. The lack of second & third efforts was evident, especially by the mids.
- slow out of the blocks. I was there an hour and a bit early and didn't see any Eagles players on the ground, yet Sydney were on there doing individual things, may be related.

Not sure what Sydney we’re doing - but the afl has banned the early warm up
Only allowing the short one they do immediately prior to the game from this year
Barrass was very poor. You hit the nail on the head, high kicks into D50 are a KPD's wet dream, gives you a chance to position your body and make an effective spoil. I know Franklin is a once in a generation player but all Barrass needed to do was get body on and thump it away.
Barrass has shown that he is still a bit raw, he will learn from this game. I'd back in him next time we play the Swans at the SCG, with the congestion he should hopefully halve all contests against Buddy.

We emphase too much on intercept marking as the defensive tactics and costed us the 2015 flag when Clarkson got their forwards to wrestle with our defenders inside 50.
In this WCE-Sydney game, Buddy is a well known strong one on one forward. Certainly without a good "lock-down" defender like McKenzie, something must have been planned?(I hope). However, the opposition seem to know our weakness more than the Eagles do!

We just dont have anyone that can go with Buddy that is fit. Barrass is still young/inexperienced, Gov is too fat and Schoey has the defensive qualities of a sand castle.
Instead of going all out defensive we tried to take them on and it didn't quite work out. Maybe we could have blocked it up but it would have probably hurt us offensively and our forward line was already weak as it was.
We could have done what everyone does to kennedy and doubleteamed him
Barrass on him - yeo 10 m in front - then its 1-2 and out of there.

Then we lose Yeo out of the middle who we are trying to develop there.
Yeo is good for little bursts in the middle against the b team mids
Hasnt got a high enough footy iq to be a ft mid.
Lycett??
If only it were so easy. Sydney was leaving a paddock for Buddy. If we double team him, he leads to the flank, their spare player drops into the hole. They had to much seperation for McGovern to help cover Buddy and cover his opponent and/or the hole. It's Buddy 1v1 or its someone else 1v0.

I could have sworn they were playing an extra man in defence- but im watching on tv
