Game Day 2024 Round 17 St Kilda v. Sydney 7 July @ Marvel 3:20 PM

[Jeffers]

Mccartin is a worry. Whenever he gets involved in a play something bad happens. He's too slow and his kicking is horrendous

Hasn't been the same since the incident with Brown. Started the season so well too. But he's so important to us.

I hope he finds his mojo soon.

 

[The King!]

When Mclean marks on the goal line it's always kind of shit me that the player then has to go back to the side of the goals rather than walk back straight like if they mark anywhere else .

 

[RedBloodBlackSwan]

Campbell looking more and more confident

Maybe being kept starting with the recent team changes boosted his confidence?

Mccartins always been an ordinary kick though, just handball .

His defensive work is fine, but i'd rather Blakey remember to run past and take the handball .

 

[ScrewInStuds]

Warner will burn 4 teammates going glory hunting then kick 2 goals from 60. It is what it is I guess.

Campbell having some good moments to follow up his good game last week, looks like he's starting to adjust to the level.

Grundy v Marshall has been a great contest to watch so far.

You should turn on the tv and check out the game. 5 inside 50s to St Kilda players and gave away a goal too

Typical Errol game. He usually gives one away and usually contributes three.

Take the good with the bad

 

[caesar88]

If Grundy & Rowbottom get going it will be game over.

But you could copy and paste this into the gameday thread every week.

He had 6 intercepts that quarter. Took 5 contested marks. Yes it was the last 15 minutes mainly but that was because we started to put pressure on upfield which always helps the back 6

He runs too high and doesn’t lift his arms when tackled so his ability to get a handball away under a tackle is very limited

Weird.

Don't get me wrong, he's a superstar but his touches have been nowhere near as damaging as they should have been. He'll bounce back.

 

[SM]

I'm so tired of the bed-wetters in these threads having a sook after an average 10 minute period.

First match day thread I've really followed and it's bonkers lol. They all like this?

 

[The King!]

Anyway don't give them a sniff early here keep going. They will keep fighting .


Hayward pull the finger out

Lets go

 

[kickthething]

Composure and decision making improved…

He usually uses it better as the game goes

I guess the logic is that you walk back on an angle to the central point of the goal, which anywhere else gives you a reasonable arc.

In the first quarter, yes

Definitely don’t give them a sniff of Hayward’s finger after he’s pulled it out

 

[Wolfgang West]

Heeney just doesn't seem to have that same power in him to get clear as he had earlier in the year. Hard to tell if it's something he's lacking, or if the opposition are hammering him more.

Body pressure on him is immense.

Yes

He's going at 54% because his disposal in the first & the early second was a disgrace. He knows that

Just hope it’s not the dreaded ankle.

He’s faded out as seasons have worn on before - as the ankle becomes an issue.

But today, I’ve been really impressed with Campbell & JJ. They held it together while the stars struggled.

Every single year Horse runs him into the ground so by finals he is spent. And he's like a stupid (loveable) puppy that can't stop for his own good too.

Make him the sub next week against the improved North. Earlier in the year I'd have said rest him all together but we might need something late given the way they are starting to play.

 

[Jeffers]

cmon boys, keep the foot on the accelerator. Don't give them anything

Unless we're 10 goals up at quarter time, yes.

 

[Stencorp69]

Low skill effort today, field kicking off, hand balling off, marking off, kicking into the 50 off, goal kicking off. They are excelling at hitting the post and there have been some individual brilliant efforts.
