Review Round 8 - Positives, Negatives, Changes

[discofan]

All been crap. You've been sucked into the hype. Why do we put in Derickx??? Hasn't really shown much to say that he is up to it. Why do we put in Hicks??? He's useless. Why do we put in Astbury??? Do you want to crush his confidence some more???

just think Gus's influence on games at the moment is minimal - X couldn't do any worse. Astbury seems a better propsition to Houli (can't see what all the hype is about Houli - except maybe his long kicks). We need 'injected' speed to do the Bombers - Nason is not going too well - Hicks seems to be going ok - and he can run nearly as fast as Usain Bolt (well not quite !)

has anyone actually seen a Coburg game?
as opposed to fantasising about their favorite players imaginary abilities, Id like to hear some detail in who is pushing for what role

at least read the Burgers game reports - who got pumped again ande kicked 6.17!!
so probably not a forward! (guess it was windy out at Ballarat)

Webbers in the bests, and Goo, too
If Edwards and White out injured would think Webbers the obvious replacement.
Goo / Browne to try and shore up the fact that weve got 3 capable tall ruckmen coming at us?
(Is Tucky recovered? him or Posty might be an extra tall)

If it wasnt our home game at the G Id suggest popping Jack in the 2s to show them how to kick straight!

OUT:

Grimes (Must learn to mark rather than punch sometimes!)
Mcguane
Graham
Nason

IN:

Derickx
Astbury
Webberley
White

With Hurley Out we can proberbly go into the same with Just Rance and Astbury as KPd.

Graham needs a rest and hopefully Derickx can perform against one of the best ruck devisions in the league.

Webberley and White to provide crucial run to combat the bombers.

Grimes (Must learn to mark rather than punch sometimes!)

They don't call him IronFist for nothing

 

[tigerfansince86]

Rance and McGuane try hard but I dont see any natural footballer in both of them it's just not good enough, although Grimes has a future. The main thing we need is a Key defender in the draft or by trade.

I'd love to see Webberley get a chance ahead of Nason I'd also like to see Browne again.

In/ Webberley, Tuck, Graham

Out/ Edwards?, Nason, Browne

 

[Wally Matera]

Postives:

- Vickery's mark backing back into a contest. He'd normally back into it, that's no question. But he clunked the mark. And it wasn't an easy one.

Funny... when l revisit games, there's always one moment that stands out, for good or bad reasons. Last night l was sitting back thinking about the game and the first smile that came to me was Ty-ragic snaffling that mark.

It showed he was fearless, but also knowing how much confidence he will get from taking that is the most important.

Credit where credit is due.

Pos:
* 17 goals in 2 1/2 qtrs
* Miller very good
* Ty continues to get better each week
* Our mid's chop sides up big time when they control the ball

Negs:
* 10 goals from Gilbee and Minson, give me a f@#king break
* Too many cream puff opportunist goals yet again
* 1st qtr, I just don't bother watching or listening anymore until 10 mins into the 2nd qtr.
* Holding the ball doesn't apply when we tackle

Out: McGuane, if we are serious about development this guy can not play in front of Astbury.
Edwards if injured
Nason

In: Astbury, see above comment and I don't give a stuff if he's not playing blinders in the magoos.
White, if available, or Webberley
Tuck, we must control the stoppages at ground level against the Bombers or we are in real trouble.
