They would’ve prepared for the 5 day break long before the season started, they will have had a very easy week on the track I imagine.
Hopefully we can lift ourselves from this slump and head home with a wet sail from here.
What was his position as a junior?
I’d like to see how he goes in another position.
I really hope we can find a young quality key defender in the next year or two, it’s a major worry if Weiters goes down
The umpire repeatedly yelled “TOUCHED” over and over again, so Port let it through the goal.
Then the umpire does a score review to check that it actually was touched.
They couldn’t change the score could they? Port only let it through because of the touched call.
Apart from us trying to hold on to a win for far too long, that was a great win against a top tier opponent.
That was also the best game I can
Remember Owies playing.
I couldn’t agree more, others like sky horse tamer have made similar points in this thread. We are trying to “hold on” for far too long and because of this, we are the most susceptible of the top 6 or so teams to losing a game when 3-4 goals up.
You see it in every sport, with teams like...
I never rated him from the games I watched him play for Nth. But that was a long time ago, I could say the same about Jones and he really blossomed. It would be fantastic if he could come on, key defender quality is certainly not a strength of ours.
Fair call, that’s a great picture. I thought he braced because he was fractionally second to the contest without a chance to mark it. But with arms stretched to mark it like Boyd has, it would have been just about a dead heat. They were there at the same time and only Boyd was attempting to mark...
Was JUH to the doggies due to a scholarship? I had heard that he was originally in the Cats zone.
The Dogs have been blessed for talls from academy/FS. Darcy, JUH is an enormous boost to their spine.
Earlier in the thread you posted a Cripps highlights package. It made me feel a bit silly giving someone else BOG (Walsh). After watching the replay, I would have given Cripps BOG, but wow Walsh was fantastic.
It’s almost as they we continually try to lose these games, eventually it just simply has to happen. When the Crows scored the goal to get them back to within 2 goals, it felt like a fait accompli they would get the next.
I was watching Kingy showing preseason footage of us. This is clearly what we are working on. I personally like it, I think with practice this can be a weapon for us. Maybe I am hoping for an improvement in this like GWS had at the back end of last year. Voss is clearly wanting us to be sound...
It’s an amazing midfield trio. Rozee, Butters, Hornet. Rozee the oldest and has only just turned 24. Personally, I think they are doomed with “finals are scary” Hinckley, but they have the drivers.
He would be close to a minimum salary player. Unless there is a major turnaround in his form, nobody is going to offer much at all. If either of those teams want him, they would only need to offer a bit more career security.
Scoring power from small forwards is definitely not a strength of ours.
Key defenders is the other key weakness. We are strong, but those are obvious weaknesses of ours.
