Game Day Round 6, 2023 - GWS vs. Brisbane Lions

[Nathan Barley]

We don't have the let's embarrass the opposition killer instinct.

Important mindset in elite sports success.

I must have dreamed last week

someone tell hipwood he's suppose to go for marks and not crumb

It met all the current criteria of a dangerous tackle. The debate is going to roll on about the rule though. If a player tries to stay standing in the tackle it becomes a battle of strength/position and players go down very quickly once they’ve lost their balance. I’m not sure what the tackler is supposed to do in those situations other than let the guy with the ball get it out to their teammate?

Not saying it wasn't deserved, but that if it hadn't become dangerous it was clearly HTB

 

[Nathan Barley]

Ward will be lucky if he doesn't get a week

 

[Nathan Barley]

GWS have had by far the 2 best midfielders which have kept them in it

Maybe 3 if you count Greene

He's got no idea how to mark when the ball's high.

I think that is the difference between very good to elite and great teams/players/athletes. Most greats don’t just want to win/beat you they want to dominate and embarass, leave no doubt that they’re the best.

Lyons on

 

[Nathan Barley]

Try the handball Lyons

 

[luthor]

It all started when Charlie went off.

They started kicking goals from their back pocket.

t drives me nuts that when a player like Charlie is tearing it up they take him off for a "rest"

I agree, and to be honest the umpire should have blown the whistle before Lachie had to be taken to ground. He had taken the tackler on and hadn’t made any real effort to dispose of the ball.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Charlie wants the personal best

 

[CarterS]

We aren't ruthless enough, so often we get to 30-40 in front and we ease off, I suppose you can't expect to beat all the lesser sides by 60+. but it does get frustrating when we keep letting lesser teams back into games.

I agree if they get the 1st goal they will get a real sniff and lift, we need to put them away early.

Literally win by about 80 last week

 

[Nathan Barley]

How many throws?

 

[MSB ROYS]

3 throws in a row. Lucky Charlie kicked that.

 

[CarterS]

GWS are a decent team and the betting line is 19.5. To criticize us for not belting them is insane

 

[haystark]

Throw, HTB and a held without all missed.

Thank god we got a goal at the end of it all.

 

[p4p1]

CHARLIE!!!!!!!

 

[Nathan Barley]

2 throws and a holding within 3 seconds with 4 umps

 

[scoman]

Umpires missed sooo many frees there!!

 

[martinson]

Lol. Hippy got a shock when he had it.

 

[p4p1]

Horrible from Cognilio on the replAh.

 

[Nathan Barley]

They don't mind giving us frees in the middle of the ground

 

[MSB ROYS]

Umpires missed sooo many frees there!!

A cynical person would question whether there is game management going on. Not me of course...

 

[Nathan Barley]

Joyce subbed?
