Game Day AFL Round 2 - Collingwood vs Sydney Matchday Discussion - ANZ Stadium 7.40pm ... Swans 69 Pies 89

[Manic Magpie]

Only had 2 disposals, though they were good ones

Plus gave up a goal early by not running hard enough to make a decisive contest.

Last year is semi relevant I guess.

This IS only the second game after all, we really have f/a new data worth corellating yet.

I'm not the biggest fan of bucks but you have to feel for him how can you coach a team when the skill level is that bad

It's this way BECAUSE of bucks. Liked the guy as a player but he is not an inspiring or inventive coach. Talks good shop but doesn't deliver.

 

[jerry springer]

Kennedy could of been handy in these dewy conditions

 

[treestump]

So who gets subbed?

 

[mattys123]

Swanny probably shouldn't be playing, looks so far out of touch.

Still a chance though, Adams comes on for Ball/Goldsack and helps us out late.

Two disposals to half time is not enough for an experienced 27 year old premiership player.

Mick might have been onto something with the "we don't have the cattle" to go down the middle like Hawks/Cats. I'm aware that was many years ago but it looks like the same issue.

Years of drafting to suit Micks needs. Mick was saying that shit from 2004, 10 years later we are still saying that shit.

All our picks to suit Buckleys game plan are yet to filter through, Freeman, Scharenberg, Kennedy, Langdon, Broomhead etc etc.

I guess basing it strictly on 2014 form is harsh but they have been comfortably below the top teams thus far.

Damn our skill level sucks, most of their goals are from a chain after a poor handball or dropped mark

Langdon for me

Surly bucks can't be blamed cause Sinclair can't handball 5 meters, Swanny droppes a chest mark and ball can't kick

Nah that's just rubbish. They don't train to make basic skill errors that professional footballers should not make. Turnovers kill you.

 

[loki04]

No, Maxy is just just way too harshly.

I don't understand it... his endeavour has been great tonight.

Maybe take a look at our "guns" like Sidebottom.

Mate he was piss poor in the 1st quater.

He was ok in the 2nd when lined up on Derricks, who hurt himself in the 1st and is lumbering ruck.

Don't worry I have not just singled him out as half the team is playing like shit including his more talented team mates.

 

[boxy99]

Langdon for me

Keep him out there give him the experience! Blair for me

This.

The umps are a joke but that's nothing new! At least they got the Sinclair decision right though in terms of his goal in the second quarter.

Buddy has been quiet and was lucky to have a goal as a result of a crap free kick from McGlynn.

We're hanging in there which is good to see but it has to be said that the skill level is poor tonight. Presuming that Swan isn't injured both him and Sidebottom need to lift in he second half.

Been very pleased with Harry, Grundy, Beams, Frost (for his job on Buddy) and Pendles is all class.

 

[frizzle]

Are we watching the same game?

If turning it over is the objective then he is doing well. The 7 clangers (easily more than anyone else on both sides) says he is butchering it. My eyes see the same thing.

 

[GutsyBug]

Is it just me or do Sydney have an extra point?

 

[CasuallyDressed]

I'm really considering naming my first born "Pendles"

No argument DW I just don't believe its time to jump in the lifeboats yet, we aren't realistically in the running for the flag and the top 4 will need lots of things to go right for a change but we are FAR from a spent force yet.

I fully expected this sort of reaction from the board as soon as I saw the harsh draw we got, its pointless trying to draw a form line until mid season IMHO.

Far from subworthy

 

[Baird]

Brilliant by Frost

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Impressive Frost

 

[GutsyBug]

Frost playing good!
