Review Positives and Negatives vs Demons - Round 18

[Quinz]

Unmelting.

 

[Dusky]

Cons: Played average/pure s**t at times
Pros: Got the 4 points

 

[Max zero]

+Win
+Great crowd support - clear who was favoured
+Watson did some good things
+Darling

-Umpiring
-Oliver playing well
-2nd quarter

 

[Quinz]

Pos: I watched the last quarter with the sound off and listening to soothing music. It worked quite well.

 

[Numero Uno]

4 points
lifted when we needed to

 

[Luuuc]

- So much substandard effort by us through the middle of the game
- So much substandard umpiring (both ways. Not calling bias - just incompetence)

+ Franky's debut
+ Dees pretty much handing us 4 points they looked destined to win

 

[random260]

Anyone got Telstra tracker. Want to see willie Rioli distance. He seemed to run a lot today. Wonder if he made top 5

 

[CM9000]

I think a special mention needs to be given to JD. He's finding the form he had at the beginning of 2018 in the latter part of 2019, and I for one am loving it.

 

[woosha24]

Positives: Won and avoid the Curse of Second Place for another week

Negatives: How much time you got?

* Mids standing around with their thumbs up their arse for 2 quarters

* Hickey cant ruck alone. Desperately missing Vardy

* Kennedy looks bad with his head down and sulking about not getting paid frees all the time. That sulk-push on his man in the last quarter could have cost us a 50

* Defense look like they have NFI what they're doing. Second week in a row we have been adrift down back

* Petrol avoids relegation simply because we have no one to replace him

* Injury scares rearing up again. Need to wait and see how Hurn and Gov pull up

* So Professor, would you say Barrass is likely to be stitched up by the tribunal for a failed concussion test? "Yes I would Kent".

Not in the top 5

100% He was so good.

 

[Balls In]

That was a -6 goal differential to the umpires. There was a game way back in my foggie memory againt Port... the one where Kerr (I think) was spear tackled. That game was as badly umpired as this one. All of those umpires should be sacked.

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Postives
Watson
Hickey
Darling
And Yeo's last quarter

Negatives
Barrass
Nelson
Cole
Waterman

 

[WCE Wizard]

Postives
Watson
Hickey
Darling
And Yeo's last quarter

Negatives
Barrass
Nelson
Cole
Waterman

To be fair we have Cripps, Hutch, Hurn, Nic Nat and Duggan out. We get back Hutch and Hurn back and Waterman will go out same with Cole. Watson was good

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

+Twice this year we've got Melbourne's hopes up only to dash them late
+Darling is probably at the level he was at in the first half of 2018
+Brisbane will have the 2nd place curse next week

-I thought we over the flat spot we had early in the season. Gotta lift next week.
-Bunga calf
-Gov ankle? Running out of soldiers

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Positives
We won
Melbourne are 17th. We broke them

Negatives
I miss flat tracking

 

[the harry]

Postives
Watson
Hickey
Darling
And Yeo's last quarter

Negatives
Barrass
Nelson
Cole
Waterman

These three need to find some form. Barrass has a huge task next week against Brown, bit of a worry. Watson should hold his sport ahead of Nelson and Cole on shaky ground.

 

[AndysAngels]

+ Simmo chucked Nelson on Clayton in that last quarter and it worked a treat; 2 disposal last quarter. game winning move

 

[Cuzz09]

Similar to rd1.

Got a good lead then stopped.

This time fought it out well.

Nelson would be a great tagger. Surprised it was not done earlier.

 

[BlueandGoldforever]

Positives
We won
Darling
Hickey
Sheed
Yeo’s last quarter
Watson’s debut

Negatives
Woeful umpiring
Lazy second and third quarters
Cole
Waterman
Ryan

 

[Numero Uno]

vic media already trying to get Barrass rubbed out

whats this 2nd place curse ? pretty sure we won the flag from 2nd

 

[ep2018]

Positives, we've made the top 8 now, for the fifth consecutive time. now to hopefully wrap up top 4 and give us a shot at finishing 2nd.

 

[Shuestar13]

I’m not sure I’m getting all the hate on Barrass? I mean, he has missed half the season after all... Give him some more time before we write him off for the year

Likewise with Kennedy... He is slowing down and closer to the end, that much is clear. But I think he has earned the right to be backed in to find some form. He has still been a useful contributor this year and his presence alone means he takes one of the oppositions key defenders and allows JD to be unleashed. Have a bit more faith in the great man

 

[boondy]

+ Hickey v Gawn , held his own .
+ Darling
+ Sheed
+ugly win and got a game into the kids they will learn from .

- only Demons inaccuracy saved us . But they were 2019 flag favourites and we had a lot of less than 50 game players .
