Myers best 22.
Was gonna say not enough myers hate in this threadâŚ
Stats canât be denied - were over 20% chance of winning with dave in the side.
Had a good game today, like his game against Port. Needs to back it up thoughâŚ
This is a pleasant surprise.
Said it in the game thread but Hurley should have played on Riewoldt last week
Havenât seen the game. Please expand on this?
Well you know the blitz narrative - guarantees himself another 10 games now no matter how poorly he plays.
Forward line was â â â â â , too many being selfish and running to the same space. Need to play team football and clear some space for each other. Thatâs what we have to expect though, McKernan (5th game) and Brown (1st game) with Green first game back. No chemistry. Canât wait for Stewart to regain some confidence and come back to Lead by example on leading patterns to the newbies.
Dumb midfielders need to lower their eyes too and kick to advantage rather than go long every time.
Happy for a win though, as always.
My comments during the game were fairly pessimistic, but no Zaharakis and Heppell done before half-time, we still got the job done and it shouldâve been an 8-9 goal win if not for some horrible goalkicking, especially in the 3rd term. Take the 4 points, rest up and be ready for a big 3 weeks post-bye. Eagles, Roos, Pies. Win 2 of that block and we keep ourselves in the hunt.
What a difference a month in football makes. Since the Carlton game weve gone 3-1
I dont think we are a top 4 club but the direction we are tracking in has some positives for the future.
Saad, Smith and Stringer are very good contributers
Ridley, Redman, Langford and Guefli have it.
Thats 7 players weve brought in. We have the chance now this season to keep playing the kids and be set for a good year next year. Even more so when Joe, Raz, Gleeson, Parish, Colyer have the chance to get over injuries.
5-7 not horrible going into the bye. Injuries are kinda shitt y atm especially if Devon is out.
I think now, if any is time to throw hooker forward. His leadship abilities will help guide the forwards. We have Franga primed and ready to slot in as the intercept defender to come in after the bye if required.
nice win considering we lost our best player for a half. i thought we would get run over. great defensive effort.
Jake Stringer is a gun and I am so glad he is ours. Can we get two more just like him?
No way we play him in perth. Reckon we wait till weâre back in melbourne.
Beams especially and Zorko were monstered any time they went near the ball.
Zorko broke away a bit, or maybe we just fell away, but the intent was there.
Iâm certainly not used to seeing it from this team, and it was a lovely surprise.
So many times Brisbane repeled the ball forward if we didnât mark it or bring to ground
we find a way to beat west coast, and I think it would change the entire outlook of our season.
really hope we learn from Richmond and play a complete game to put it up to them. the eagles imo are the best side in the comp.
Sat pretty hard on Zorko.
Merrett showed some real intent today. I had him as my best for us. Warming up for a big second half of the year hopefully.
Giving credit to the coach perhaps today then?
