Game Day Round 10 v Yartapuulti, @Adelaide Oval 7:50pm GMT

[Clink]

Colours are off. Dockers?

 

[Tulip]

I can't stand the lack of game sense. do they not know that they can soccer it off the damn ground. 2023 is cooked.

We should be 70 points down.

Were too good for chaos ball apparently.

 

[Lord Nev]

Steve May still has a few decent moments in him but pretty clear Father Time is knocking on the door. Got nothing below his knees

Tracking at 50% of his career average for defensive ground ball gets this year.

 

[Tulip]

Can add Gawn and Grundy to that limitation

Harsh on Max but yeah Grundy is pretty bog average when there’s pressure applied

 

[ptrg]

Launch a few cosmonauts to the ISS? That some kind of new age metaphore?

 

[danster168]

We're the reverse Collingwood. Playing with no passion or desire. Pathetic and embarrassing performance. Is this game an anomaly? Not at all.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Oliver's offensive game has been horrible but I will say he's our only mid who's been up for it defensively

Hes the only bloke having a crack. What do Brayshaw and Viney do? Gawn and Grundy, garbage.

 

[Charlie_s123]

You can tell that our training consists of Oliver Trac and Viney walking through tackles and playing Hollywood handball.

As soon as a side applies enough pressure we go to water.

They idolise basketballers that play under cover every night.They don’t realise they’re footy players who need grit when the weather turns to shit

 

[mrmonkey]

Can't really fault our defenders, it's our mids that are allowing port to move the ball with ease. Kudos to Hinkley for getting port playing 1:1 footy and not allowing intercept marks.

 

[Tulip]

Tracking at 50% of his career average for defensive ground ball gets this year.

It might be his injury, I hope it is, but no guarantee it fully heals at his age if that’s what it still is

 

[jhong]

Ports sloppy kicking for goal so far is keeping us in it .

 

[Daemon]

Where is our pressure? We had it the last 2 weeks against the crap sides, and against a good side we decided to leave it at home??? Just lazy and insipid all around so far.
Credit to port as well, they have played well and been a lot cleaner.

 

[djpaulydemon]

Their poise from centre to half forward kicking through the middle has been elite. We have nothing.

If we want to be great we have to be kicking it through the middle cleanly. Haven't seen it once tonight.

 

[Young Redleg]

At this rate I dread seeing what Collingwood will do to us in three weeks.

 

[Jimi]

So you sub McDonald or JVR

 

[ptrg]

Jesus H Tapdancing with tassels christ! (we are the team on the right for those who have nfi)

 

[Topkent]

Hes the only bloke having a crack. What do Brayshaw and Viney do? Gawn and Grundy, garbage.

Chase the contests around like Labradors.

We turned one over in the middle and Oliver was the only one sprinting back to help our defence.

So much goes wrong in these big games. Teams have been able to nullify the May Lever combo, Langdon is in career worse form, our midfield loses clearances and only Fritsch can win an ugly kick forward.

I can't think of anything we can go into half time an point too that's working except luck

 

[Scythe94]

So you sub McDonald or JVR

I'd rather play with 17 on the field than McDonald

Easy to pressure when you don't have face it yourself, only working hard half the game. Now we have to do it all game we can't handle it

 

[Crimson Azure]

Both teams should be embarrassed, port should have this game more than won. 40 point better team.

Trac, is he playing? Ditto Viney, Salem and ANB.

Gawn, can’t handle any attention.

 

[Clink]

We're the reverse Collingwood. Playing with no passion or desire. Pathetic and embarrassing performance.

Is this game an anomaly?

An aNARRMaly

 

[LarryDavidNeitz]

Ok, can we stop getting cute with selection and player position and start again now.
Get Trac in the guts, no more of that forward s**t in the second half, midfield and bench only. Sub TMac off right now.

Jordon onto Butters has to be the most obvious sub of all time

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

They idolise basketballers that play under cover every night.They don’t realise they’re footy players who need grit when the weather turns to s**t

 

[ptrg]

I swear we’ve had at least 20+ underground handballs in the past month leading into night. You hardly ever see one, and we have had multiple each game.
Says it all really

 

[Daemon]

The Power man did a #pretenders earlier, if we don't show something in this second half I'm all aboard that train, this game is like a repeat of the Brisbane and Essendon defeats.
