Autopsy 76 point Team Effort win vs Hawthorn

I honestly don’t understand why some have Lloyd entering whipping boy territory.

He’s a multiple-time club champion & hasn’t suddenly become a spud.

Well because he's been moved out of his favoured position. Roberts has taken that.
He's now playing a bit of a piecemeal position . So can be assessed and critiqued v that.

 

[The King!]

Let's just hope it's hard to fit guys like Parker in next week still

Heeney Lloyd Rowie all having a laugh with Wicksy after the siren- all good I reckon

He's been great since coming back. Good player who compliments our tall setup.

 

[Wolfgang West]

Only small things and we only get tiny clips of vision, but I noticed a couple of things today with how the rest of the team are acting towards Wicks and it wasn't good.

I don't really care what it was to create the issue, but if he is going to be in the team then there needs to be a bit of leadership. Even if it comes from the coaches just going over to him during breaks.

Just watching him stand there on the outside on his own while all the players were mingling together at the end of the game was a bit average.

I was there and must admit didn’t look for what you have described here but if that is indeed happening the lot of them should pull their head out of their arses and take him back into the fold as he is still wearing our jumper and while you are out there he is a brother. What goes on off the ground is their own business. What the ** is this an episode of Mean Girls ? Grow the ** up.

 

[Kirkswan]

Which bridge? The Grandville Bridge?

Supposedly the Anzac Bridge, or maybe the harbour bridge; but really, who the hell knows... during the time I've been following them, I've lived in W'gong, Newcastle and Penrith...

You think it’s a joke ????

 

[Wolfgang West]

I can't tell if you're taking the piss

He’s not.

 

[caesar88]

You think it’s a joke ????

I think he's in the team and is playing well. That's all that matters. Everything else is speculation, and that doesn't matter. So yeah I cracked a joke.

 

[Donza]

If I'm driving from Randwick to Homebush. I guess I could go over the ANZAC bridge

 

[caesar88]

Wicks' pick-up and goal was the best play of the year for mine.

The gather under pressure, the strength to steady himself, the skill to kick the goal.

Everything had to be perfect and it was. GIF incoming.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Lloyds best game in his new role. He’s going nowhere.

Supposedly the Anzac Bridge, or maybe the harbour bridge; but really, who the hell knows... during the time I've been following them, I've lived in W'gong, Newcastle and Penrith...

Contract Bridge?

 

[Wheresbuddy]

GWS will go in with Taylor, Buckley and Himmelberg as their tall defensive 3. I don't think this is the game to change our structure and go with a smaller forward line.

As to who makes way for Parker +/- Rampe, I have no clear idea in my mind. I'd say Cunningham, Fox, Wicks and Jordan would be the most obvious but all are playing well enough and contributing. Good problem to have - hopefully we get it right.

 

[Wolfgang West]

Fox will be the poor prick rampe replaces I bet

Shame because he’s been decent. Rampe not ready next week though ?

There is probably nothing in it. But it was little things like the above, and there were a few times like this, that made me go hmmmm. But if there is anything remotely in it, then the leaders need to step up and be leaders.

 

[Wolfgang West]

I was in Canberra and saw the Giants play. Fair to be worried.

Agree but Brisbane 2nd half were stomped on like a training cone in a 6 point drill. Offered about as much resistance.

I'm coming around. Definitely dropping in the pecking order but should still be around in some capacity for a while

He's not a tempo general he's one paced and losing relevance in an increasingly one on one turnover focused game

Yet after the pickup from hell.
They were on him like a seagull on a chip.

Speculation ? Ok easy out. If supporters are noticing stuff like this it’s happening. Have you ever been in a footy club ? A footy club where this is happening ? I have and it doesn’t end well.

It pisses me off with his hand gestures.
You've literally won the pill back and you're backing back.

Cunningham is the same. However he's a accountable defender.

I have played at a club where this was happening and also coached one where a kid playing Senior footy was isolated from the group because off field behaviour. No good for the group and especially for the kid. We’ll see what happens.

 

[the hypnotoad]

That pissed me off all game

dwayne is a knob ... he called florent's long goal in the first quarter as making it "by a millimetre" ... that bugged me for ages, it made it comfortably

I'm sure it's fine. I wouldn't even notice if it wasn't for the circumstances.

I have, and I know that not all teammates get on, or are mates at all. Some have no relationship with each other and are merely colleagues. As long as they can co-exist and play their role in the team, then that's all we should expect of them. The rest is their business.

What were once neat reliable kicking skills are now an anchor.

Meanwhile, Florent has turned into an absolute peach small defender.

First picked of those three
