Training 2024 Preseason Thread

[mrmonkey]

Reckon most preseason games are very quarter to quarter with scoring bursts, not sure why the panic tbh. They'd be trying different things every quarter. Metls over this quarter are a bit silly.

Nah melts are warranted, final nail in the coffin for me, fully on board the orange team.

Tigers are on the loose.

I'm not melting, but i can call it how i see it. What i'm seeing now is that when we're challenged we regress into moving the ball up the wings rather than the middle. And the oppositions rate of moving the ball from half back untouched is concerning as it happened easily at times last year

I don't know, giving up 8 goals in a row to an ordinary Richmond side is certainly melt worthy.

Not panicking, but I wouldn't mind seeing a goal. Eight in a row to Richmond since I turned it on lol

Probably though it doesn't look promising for other players.

i haven't seen Petracca for a while, injured?

Kynan is great. Doesnt panic at all, speed of the game no worries. Looks like an AFL vet.

Probably sitting in our forward pocket waiting for a kick

Says more about our experienced players.

 

[Lord Nev]

Most years, how teams perform in pre season matches flows into regular season.

We got smashed by the Bulldogs in the 2021 preseason.

 

[mrmonkey]

Petracca back on cue with a grubby kick to the wing.

If it wasn't a preseason nothing game, sure.

Yeah, but he needs to play on what ive seen. This years McVee.

 

[dazzledavey36]

Some of the basic skills errors from our more senior players is horrendous.

Lever and Petracca two main culprits there.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Tigers just murdering us off turnover, just running in waves and its very easy, fitness looks ****ed.

 

[Demon 16]

Windsor looking like Hunt 2.0 with his turnovers

Just needs to get used to the tempo and physicality and hopefully he’ll be more composed.

Wasn't directed at you tbf. Just reckon preseason games are for experimenting and fine tuning things, and they're often a quarter by quarter scenario. There's concerns about certain things, sure, but not going to read too much into today good or bad.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

10 in a row. nice.

 

[Mich0]

We are being embarrassed here

 

[Scythe94]

Jesus, this is atrocious hahaha

That's not pressure it was a deadset fumble from May.

Hope we keep Howes in the 2s after this, bloke has let Bolton do what he wants.
