Review thread: Western Sydney Humidity

I saw it confirmed on twitter by De Stoop I think

[FromTheAshes]

Good side I agree. But the scary thing is I feel if that was a Collingwood rich, hawthorn it would’ve been a lot worse. We made them look a lot better than they actually are. We were literally witches hats yesterday

No. Even though we didn’t show up i’d argue that GWS looked the most polished out of any side that played. They were lacking in front of goal but their ball movement was very clean and pressure was very high.

Fremantle for mine were the most impressive side of the round with Port not too far back.

Odd to see Fremantle with multiple decent key forward options.

I have been saying for a while that we are in a big hole.

I have been saying for a while that we are in a big hole.

And I’ve been thinking for a while how much I dig that analogy.

[efc1robbo]

its been a long time since ive been in any sort of hole…

[bomber_girl]

Well, post a song about a hole then.

Sagging off your man by 2m allowed them to hit up targets and control the ball, so we were chasing more than we would have liked.

Rutten preaches this doesn’t he? Guarding space between players? If so the guys have no ■■■■■■■ idea how to execute it.

Our zoning was completely wrong. GWS continually found their team mates with well-weighted 35 metre passes. We need to set up a tighter zone in that 20 to 40 m range and have an interceptor such as Franga lurking 50 to 60 m down the line. You could’ve sailed the Queen Mary through our defensive zone yesterday.

It was appalling. And GWS read it perfectly.

What a ■■■■■■■ joke of a club.

EMBRACE THE HYPE

Just looking at bomber tv and I see there is a video up called “key learnings ahead of round 1”

Bahahaha, can we change this title to key learnings Rd 1 please

Fark me, stab me in the eyes

[BLOODSTAINED_DEVILS]

Well, post a song about a hole then.

Or maybe an aptly titled one from Hole is more appropriate?

[barnz]

Team that historically can’t zone to save itself, fails to execute a zone. in absolute shock.

The only time we had a semblance of defensive capability was when hirdy went hard on the man on man.

[bomber5au]

I have been told that the GPS system was down. Bit like the team really!!

I was going to suggest a title change, …

for only us? what about gws? does that mean their numbers should be higher?

[reincarnated]

Are our players dumb?

Has there been any other team who have similar issues?

Hawthorn and Geelong and Collingwood seem to role out a game plan every now and then, and it never takes them time to cick.

Why can’t our players grasp it? It seems like we are farked with this group of players because every year there is going to be problems with not adopting to game plans.

I seriously can’t take this ■■■■■ after the supplement saga.

[FTWinderlich]

I think our players are just too dumb to zone. It takes initiative and EFFORT.

If so, Worsfold has had 3 years to figure this out and adjust appropriately. WTF have they all been doing.

[barnz]

Are our players dumb?

i’d agree with this, we’ve made the same dumb errors over and over again that its beyond the point if being deliberate.

[FTWinderlich]

Are our players dumb?

Yes. Lacking in Leadership and Football IQ
