Get the W.. go into the last 2 games thirsty for more. Finishing the season with 5 wins would be awesome. Lets go
Incredible
Give him a rest against the Dogs next week.
Good luck telling Chom he's sitting out when we have winnable games to finish the season...

Exactly.
Just play him. Reminds me a bit of Colby (Leigh) in a lot of ways, toughness and injury wise. Spleen aside, every week you’d think yeah he’s hurt and surely he’s not getting up after that but he always would. We need him this week and there’s no way he’d want to sit this one out

Awful game
Got taught a lesson

Didn’t even seem to understand that he needs to stay on his man.
Let alone the consistent decision not to punch the ball out of bounds. But why did he keep leaving their best forward alone.
Honestly one of the worst games from a key defender I’ve seen.

We lost it at selection- weagles have all these talls and we bring Bergman in
Should of brought in one of the Dawsons

Because he isn't a key defender above the shoulders. Thats not saying he cant be if he was to learn the craft.
Needs a full preseason without marking priveliges, has to learn to kill the ball if he goes up. And not fly against team mates leaving his man on the ground
Bergman was better than McDonald but some idiot superglued his name to the whiteboard in 2020 and the superglue remover has been out of stock.

I did giggle with Charlies game yesterday, I should drag out the relevant stats and post them, but I'm not like. Well if I was to drag out relevant stats to show how much better Charlie is down back, I would also include the stat that has us 17th for our fwd fifty entries and has us 2nd for opponent fwd 50 entries. Kind of relevant information one would suggest.
On yesterday he lowered his colours, does that make him less of a success story, nope.
I do though feel he would have been a better choice for McGovern, we made some strange choices at the selection table me thinks.

Yep I’m doing a deep dive into yesterdays debacle and the tale of the tape for the first 2 and a half qrts is the match ups of larkey vs McGovern and comben vs Allan.
McGovern was single handily the reason we weren’t 10 goals up half way through the third when McDonald changed the momentum of the match.
Comben was lucky Allan hadn’t kicked 2-3 more at that stage. But it will only get worse for him from this point of the match onwards.
Is it reasonable for the medical staff to get Charlie off for a rebuild now so he can get as much preseason work in as possible?
The remaining games can be used to get one or two others a bit of a run while Chom gets a grease and oil change.

Inexplicably poor decision making across the whole game.
Dreadful performance.

He's still an upgrade on Magoo, I said that to old mate and he near slapped me, wtf how low is your bar set at were his words.
Love the Chom but time for him finish up the season to get his shoulder fixed, groins fixed, get a full body MRi to check for any cracks then a blowie for the hard work he's put in this season.
He really struggled after copping that knock in that big contest. He couldn't run with Allen late there.
