    Autopsy Is our star studded Midfield overrated?

    When was the last time an opposition mid really tore us apart other than GAJ? I think our midfield started to tighten up a fair bit in the 2nd half of last year We also had the 2nd least inside 50s against per game last year, as well as the 2nd least clearances against per game

    Autopsy Is our star studded Midfield overrated?

    Looking at clearance stats isn't a good way to judge midfields IMO Just look at round 19 this year vs Essendon. Dyson Heppell had the most clearances for the game yet had very little impact, most of his clearances were ineffective. Essendon won the clearance and the centre clearance stats...

    Just checked the stats, 91 tackles to 86. More than any final last year. Certainly wasn't a training run.

    Review Positives and Negatives from Round 1 Nab Challenge

    Very happy with that, Grundy beat Simpson despite giving away 4cm, 4kg and 5 years, plus nearly being knocked out twice. Huge shot at the rising star. White jumped out to a huge lead over Q for that 3rd forward/ruck role in round 1, though Lynch was OK in the ruck. Macaffer was great too, if...

    Opinion Cometh the time, cometh the man.

    Beams has great ball winning ability both inside and out, very good disposal on both sides of the body by both hand and foot, can kick 55+, kicks >1 goal a game, one of the best snap shots at goal in the league, can handle a tag, tackles and has no major weaknesses at all, but yeah apart from...

    Apart from Melbourne which clubs have poor midfields?

    If the goal was paid, the Dogs would have been six points behind with 12 minutes on the clock, having kicked 3 goals in a handful of minutes. I would call that serious trouble. And whether Essendon 'barely' won or not doesn't really matter, they had to rely on some obscure technicality to beat...

    Apart from Melbourne which clubs have poor midfields?

    The Dogs were right in that game midway through the last before an advantage call was called back for no apparent reason. If that advantage was paid, Essendon were in serious trouble.

    Apart from Melbourne which clubs have poor midfields?

    Not to mention that two of the three teams Essendon beat with Watson out were the Bulldogs (barely) and GWS

    Where is Dane (best pre season ever) Swan??

    I agree he has been well below his best this season, but surely he'll get 1 or 2 against richmond.

    Melbourne V GWS

    12.2 in one quarter. 2 or 3 dodgy umpiring decisions didn't make any difference to the end result.

    Bizzare Footy Scores

    A senior game involving my local club a few years ago, Them: 1.0 - 2.2 - 2.2 - 2.2 14 Us: 2.1 - 2.1 - 2.1 - 2.1 13 Neither team registered a score in the 2nd half. My team didn't register a score after quarter time. Was one of the worst days I've ever seen. Ridiculously strong cross wind...

    Roast The Umpires

    The OP is clearly only talking about one aspect of the umpiring today, which was terrible. If it's a bit wet and you can't bounce it straight, just throw the bloody thing up! :mad:

    Sheridan and McKay would be handy right now, but we pretty much have to go for the draw now.
