Ess vs. Magpies - Anzac day debrief

Mods - please edit title to reflect Collingwood game review?

 

Tough loss.

 

Need to digest, thought we had some real positives, but still a bitter loss. Especially after that 1st qtr.

 

What's your analysis?

Go have a celebratory bong and some pingers Swan you ugly flog!

Improvement on last week. Disappointing but not devastating.

I've seen worse.

Didn't capitalise on early dominance in the last quarter.

Ahhhhh after that 1st Qtr then not scoring for 45 minutes then losing, I'd say that's pretty devastating!

M Hurley didn't have the worst hairstyle on the ground today.

Hooker is a star.

THUMBSCREW

Which moron was matched up on Swan around the stoppages in the forward line?

We just didn’t take our chances and some pretty ordinary decisions.

We will be a cracking side NEXT year.

Look at the positives

Good game time into Joe,Gleeson, Zerrett and Asby.

Hurls is not injured every week.

jerrett is a class

Whether it makes a difference to the result or not, that umpiring was disgusting! We did not get 1 free kick for holding the ball or throw yet they got at least 8, we were deserving of a few that they let go. Harry O’Whatsisname can do whatever he likes and how that wasn’t a free to Daniher I will never know. Just disgusting.

Also, I love Bomber, but Carlisle isn’t a forward! It’s been proven now. If he isn’t in the team as a backman, he needs to be in the VFL. BRING BACK BELLCHAMBERS!!

I have to ask - does anyone think the 4 goal loss wasn’t realistic?

I mean, on evidence Pies probably are a 4-5 goal better side than use

Stanton.

The bigger forwards can be summarised as follows:
Hardingham - sorry not up to it.
Carlisle - not a forward’s a***hole.
Daniher - falls over nearly every time he gets anywhere near the ball.
Don’t expect to win too many games with this set-up.

Not devastating??????...37 points ups early in the 2nd quarter and lose by 23....ten goal turnaround...that's farking devastating to me...we played one quarter of decent football and treid hard in the last but the rest was ■■■■■■.

 

Have never been a Zaka basher but his efforts were poor, Carlisle needs to be sent back to the twos to find some small amount of form and desire.

 

That was ■■■■■■ painful to watch

Pathetic to only kick that amount of goals after qtr time. Same as last week…

Stanton.

 

Nah, one goal he kicked was that arsey one from the boundary on his left. Hibberd was on him.

 

Another one was when Beams got the ball, Stanton tackled him and it spilled out to Swan.

 

Can't remember his other two though.

 

Edit: Another one was cause of a JD turnover which left Swan free in the fwd 50.

Can’t get tbell back spoon enough

Playing the kids is starting to catch up a bit, when the physicality got stepped up they struggled a bit.

We are in serious need of our top players coming back in and our second string 3-5 year players finding some form.

Was a bad move playing Dempsey and then a even worse decision making him the sub. Will be better for the run, but should have had at least a week in the twos.

Carlisle need to go back to the VFL for a few weeks learning the art of CHF.

Belly has to play next week!
