Oppo Camp Regular Non Eagles Discussion

[Bender_]

You spelt "Darling" wrong.

Must burn to have been the second club to have recruited Anthony.

PS: Jayden Pitt going well for you?

 

[Mulldogg]

Does Luke Hodge think Dunkley is a left footer? I’m pretty certain he’s a right footer. But what would I know, I’m just a fan on my couch not a professional being paid to call the game...

GWS trying to emulate our game plan, but don't have the targets up the ground to make it work.


Bulldogs are as overhyped as the Demons, possibly more.

 

[whatis]

Saved by the fact that Naughton can't kick but credit to Giants for toughing that quarter out.

done 3/5's of **** all tonight.

 

[DanWCE]

It’s basically:

Am I getting tackled?

If yes: Do I have enough players nearby so I can drop it and make it look like a I made an effort to dispose?

Yes - drop it
No - dive forward

I don't want to trigger you, but it's no wonder we don't tackle. What's the reward? You voluntarily take yourself out of the contest. This is probably more of a midfield thing.

We don't tackle enough i50 but when we do they get rewarded, and this feels the same across the league.

TBH if they had a more tactically minded coach, they could be seriously scary. They have all the pieces for a fantastic team, but they just keep being let down by the fact they’ve refused to hire a goalkicking coach for ages.

The fact that Naughton is still kicking like a backman thrown forward, despite the fact this is the third season since his change of role, is truly baffling.

 

[Schmedit]

Push in the back when he tackles him around his thigh?

 

[Mulldogg]

The umpiring in this game has been deplorably one sided

 

[Bender_]

Another "flick" leads to a Bulldog's goal.

****en joke that they continue to get away with it.

 

[Bender_]

How far Treloar?

 

[Wild Kelly]

Do you notice the commentators always call " flicked the ball out" when it's a suss Bullfrogs "handball"?

 

[Bender_]

17 steps. **** off.

fu**en joke that they continue to get away with it.

Got there before me!,

 

[FKASC]

How far Treloar?

I know eh. I’ve noticed the umpires only ever pay that if the player changes directions or hesitates when they’re running.

if they run in a straight line toward goal, the umps will let them run as far as they want

 

[Mulldogg]

Man I wish we got half as many in the back frees as the Dogs have got this game!

 

[Wedgetailed Westerner]

Fu c k sake I ****ing hate the Western Bulldogs

 

[Avalor]

Treloar has made such a huge difference to these Bulldogs, what the heck were Collingwood thinking?

 

[RookiePick]

Someone needs to completely iron out Hunter. Diver of the highest order

It’s a fair call but it’s more about tackling technique. It’s not so much tackling to hold the player up but to try and dislodge the footy IMO

 

[FKASC]

I thought you weren’t meant to have too many gun mids in case they leave the club

 

[Monocle]

And that one. I think teams are now falling forwards when they get tackled to force an 'in the back' free. Been plenty of pretty soft ones late that don't look like the tackler has driven momentum into the tackle and thus made no effort to roll them.

Nothing new about the tactic, been going on since the 53rd pick in the 2008 draft, it's got an official name it's called the " Son Son Manoeuvre ".

 

[FKASC]

Cmon GWS

 

[Mulldogg]

English, ouch that was flush on the button

 

[RookiePick]

Fu c k sake I ******* hate the Western Bulldogs

Added diving to throwing and ump riding. Premiership trifecta?
