GWS the better team but those umpires need a smack

 

[Ozzie93]

I don't get flustered much about a game but * me that game was ******* bullshit, go * yourselves umps.

 

[STPer18]

Which one of your players ran over the umpires' dog? Can't just be rotten luck, that was something else.

 

[Kakkle]

Positives for mine

- Bellchambers beating Mumford comfortably was great to see. I had my concerns with this match up prior, so was pleasantly surprised. That was as good as a game as a ruckman for us has played since Ryder in 2014.
- McKenna continues to build on his previous solid performances. I don't think we'll ever see him in a situation where he does not take the game on. It's beautiful to watch.
- Gleeson was excellent. Defended well, intercepted well, and attacked well. A perfect balanced game.
- Hooker moved much better this week. I'd take a 2 goal 3 goal assist every day of the week.
- Green continues to hit the scoreboard.

Not a bad effort in the end.

 

[JayJ20]

Not mad at all. Great effort by the boys.

GWS are just too good.

 

[Rack Watts]

Enjoyed our effort in the first and last.
Didn't enjoy the umpires all game.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Proud of the effort but a loss is still a loss.

 

[doug85]

Not too bad really. They're the top team and interstate.

Belly was very good, I don't think I've seen him play that well in the ruck. Congrats to BJ on the 300 - *in legend.

We're not too far away.

 

[raskolnikov]

* off umpires. That's all.

 

[rumply]

Very happy actually, plenty to like out of that, really liking McKenna

 

[bacon buster]

Played well. Lacked some polish at times, especially in front of goal (cost us last week too)

Should have won this game. They had plenty of injuries and off a big road trip

Had our chances, not good enough.

Lime maggots had an influence tho

 

[DERO]

We ran the premiership favourites to 16 points away. Not bad.

Also:
JOSH GREEN KICKED 3 GOALS.

 

[RearNaked]

Stupid ******* umpires the lot of them are scum

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

Played very well against a quality team.

Not much you can do when they kick arsey goals left and right, and the umps blow them at every opportunity.

 

[Mercurial89]

Pretty happy to kick 100.
Thought we were really good around the ball and again our ball movement was good.

Just lack the class, little disposal errors, missing easy set shots.

Umps didnt lose it for us of course but some of those misses were horrendous.

Liked that we played to the siren, taking risks with the short kicks right until the end.

 

[sameolds33]

we need to improve our kicking efficiency. missed some easy chances to put score board pressure on them.

 

[Drummer_19]

Had a crack to the end, overall talent differential was on show at times, they were just cleaner around the ground and converted chances.

 

[Rack Watts]

Played very well against a quality team.

Donlon, Fisher and O'Gorman?

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

Respectable loss. Beaten by the better team with more class and poise.

Positives: McGrath going to Green. Great confidence in the kid to line up on some of the best and hold his own. Zerrett impressed. Bellchambers played superb.

We roll on.. Hopeful we see langers in next week.

 

[pepsi]

Really liked bellchambers game, as well as gleeson, Watson and green kept us in the game!

Pretty upset because it felt as if we were close but just not quite close enough. Bring the same effort against the power.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

About as happy as one could be and still lose.
