Game Day Showdown LIV

[crows dude]

What a crap standard of footy that half

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

I don’t even know where to start with this game. It’s like watching us back in 2020 when we were at the bottom of the ladder. Skills are poor, game plan is basic and dragging oppo down to our level. What a fall from grace vs last years regular season.

 

[Cromulant]

They are 10x more exciting than us

Hmmm nah

Theyve contributed to this shit show

 

[Cyclonus]

Nicks needs to bring out the water bottles.

 

[MrBarry]

Nothing about this team is enjoyable to watch currently.

 

[Scorpus]

Sam Berry is our leading midfield ball winner

5 turnovers
0 score involvements

 

[dogs105]

We are worse than the umpires

Bruce Abernethy reckons the umpiring is diabolical, and it's a hard job, but if they're this bad they're not cut out for the career.

 

[SugarShane]

9 steps. Close to 15m. Never paid a free

If it was 15 it was 15.1, and if they paid all of those they'd pay 20 a game. Lloyd ran about twice as far last week.

 

[Barneythecrab]

Actually like Toby Murray as a forward.

 

[Daniel6]

They are 10x more exciting than us

Bullshit

 

[Moonwatcher]

Imagining what it would be like to support a club that gets a ride from the umpires

You still have to be good enough to take advantage. You won't get any free kicks playing with so little intent and system as we are.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

So Rash had his best ever game a few weeks ago with 20+ disposals and 4 goals. Since then we’ve parked him deep forward.

Is Nicks tanking?

 

[MrBarry]

They are 10x more exciting than us

Nah, they are turgid.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

That umpire that called Rankine too far should be sacked.
It's just incompetence, nothing to do with interpretation.
He is purely incompetent (or corrupt)

It’s pure guesswork which allows for dubious interpretations. Honestly need a GPS on the players and the umpire gets an automatic notification if it’s 15M. Give it another 50 years until that’s introduced.

 

[Carmo]

Well least we got back in it.

Man if you could bottle confidence crows would buy every single bottle you had. We need it so bad. So much of this stuff is just in the mind, fumbles, mis kicks, taking bad decisions with our kicks. So much second guess stuff as well.

Actually got control of the game there a fair bit, but despite having a quarter of control we closed the margin up by 1 goal. Way too ineffective at attacking.

Milera having a great game, Cumming not bad, ANB handy, just putting pressure on at time, Toby Murray been good for his experience level, Rach been angry but still staying in it, finally got a goal, Keays been busy, McAndrew doing alright.

Reckon TT needs some people like Tex and Fog around him, just to make him not just the main man for a little bit of time.

Two inexperienced smalls watch: Bond ben in it a lot and good, Taylor just out of it too much.

Soligo getting back into it which is a help.

Nah

 

[Milo Cyrus]

That is a horrific level of skill on display. Can someone tell me what we are trying to do, this is supposed to be a football game isn't it? appease the betting agencies is all I can see. God level embarrassing some of the shit we are dishing up.

 

[Multiballz]

Jesus, of all the crap served up from this squad, you lot want to focus on the Umps again? Poor umpiring is standard. That gripe holds no weight whatsoever in this game.

 

[Mattrox]

I'm gonna call it now. The cement hands is a high performance and conditioning issue.

Players not in their prime. Suffering " the general already". Would line up with happys and back injuries.

 

[ABAB]

So Rash had his best ever game a few weeks ago with 20+ disposals and 4 goals. Since then we’ve parked him deep forward.

Is Nicks tanking?

Saving him for the 2nd half, we are dealing with a coaching "genius" don't forget.

 

[MrBarry]

. That gripe holds no weight whatsoever in this game.

Yeah aside from when the umpires are gifting them goals, no weight at all.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

The shift to 4 umpires absolutely made umpiring worse

10 umpires in total out there, all running around like absolute clowns and continually ****ing up. It’s basically a completely different side out there.

 

[suburpy]

Sam Berry is our leading midfield ball winner

5 turnovers
0 score involvements

75 fumbles

 

[CrowBloke]

We are too scared to take the game on because a turnover will hurt.

Because Nicks has got them thinking: Defence FIRST.

 

[Scorpus]

Jesus, of all the crap served up from this squad, you lot want to focus on the Umps again? Poor umpiring is standard. That gripe holds no weight whatsoever in this game.

Maybe if we don't want incorrect frees to be so consequential we should try kicking more than 3 goals in a half of football
