Tried to reason with Fark Carlton nuffie midway to tone it down a bit half way through the 2nd quarter when he stood up and applauded a 15m sideways kick from Hewett.
Said that he needs to scream so the players hear him.
We are sitting top deck row L.
Mac Andrew was blocking King do t mind that free to be honest better than the one against Hind when we had the ball that was horrendous
Thank god I never get sucked in by this mob. EVER.
And since then we have been shizen
We shouldn’t be this far behind, but the lack of class and polish under pressure is telling. We are trying, you can’t doubt that, but we are getting burnt when we turn it over. Wright, Langford, Atringer output so far as a collective unacceptable from your best 3 forwards. I can see Tsatas getting introduced part of the way into the 3rd for either 2MP or Harry. It should be the former, he’s been well below par.
29 i50’s to 17… 29!?
Never change Essendon, never ever.
Ridley can’t defend an opponent, good with the interceptions but doesn’t work hard enough defensively
Nah Curnow has beat him in a number of 50/50s
Serious question - do we do any forward craft practice at training?
A couple of times it looked like the forwards were completely disinterested and not leading to the ball. I know it can get congested - but surely you plan for that.
And the number of times we hit up a Fark Carlton player in our forward 50. Crazy.
Feels like we’re playing well. Let down by inaccuracy and polish. Don’t think we’ll win, but at least make a game of it in the second half.
For anyone interested soderberg shot a flawless 67 to lead the Scandinavian open
still thinking premiership contenders ?
Imagine if we could stop them scoring on ■■■■■■■ 95% of their forward entries, Q2 they had 6 and kicked 5 ■■■■■■■ goals
And please change something going forward, anything
Getting dominated by their tall defenders and not much of a yelp from our tall fwds
If we win
Okay maybe we are just copying the VFL team and we will kick 6 in 11 minutes?
It was the same thing last week.
But I was reliably told that our delivery into the 50 wasn’t an issue.
Here comes DKP, has barely waited for more than the half time siren though LMAO
Surely you have to consider Hayes or weed. Or just throw cox back. Or the logical answer is play Kelly back. Push hind up to a wing he can play there . Drop laverde all together
Nah, Ridley should never be on a key-we need two others so he can work free as the intercept defender. It was poor coaching in my opinion to have him on Curnow from the start.
I’m expecting us to close the gap. We shouldn’t be this far behind. Just need to move the ball a bit quicker and lower the eyes
