Game Day Blues V Bombers in game discussion.

[LanceRomance]

The boys haven't turned up to play.

With that said many of them are VFL regulars.

Still reckon we will win but can't believe how sloppy we are.

 

[checkpoints]

Umpires have been fantastic

I'm in front of the city end goals. That free against Robinson in the square wasn't there.

 

[AceAndy]

Surprisingly still very much in the game are a fairly lack lustre half of football.

The Ch7 bomber fan club are really annoying me, ffs these are drug cheats and all I am hearing is how brave they have been all year. Give me a break.

 

[The Big Sticks]

Game needs more booing.

 

[Wickzki]

I'm in front of the city end goals. That free in the square wasn't there.

Neither was the first 50 meter penalty. One of the worst umpiring decisions of all time. The first umpire should have told the other umpire that he called it touched.

If we lose by under a goal there will be absolute hell to pay.

 

[Bluejob]

We don't deserve finals footy. Regardless of making the 8 legitimately.

I don't care whether bombers have used drugs, or how much pressure they've been under, we are playing like a VFL side. It's embarrassing that there are 16 other clubs barracking for us tonight, many of which are painfully doing so, and we deliver this effort up to the AFL...

Switch Hendo back and Waite forward, Waite got 7 and 5 in the last two games against bombers.

Levi's 2nd attempts have been good.
Graham is involved
Duigan is going 100% maybe need that toughness in the centre bounces.
Robbo is brain dead, but his efforts there.
Bell likes to be known for his bumps, definately not brains.
Who knew Marc Murphy was having a vacation this weekend?

 

[AB_Blue]

Captain should tag so he can get near a contest.

 

[Juddalenko]

We seem very predictable. Not thinking our way off half back, just bombing long down the boundary. Bombers are stacking players there and returning fire....pretty dumb footy. What makes it worse is that if this is our plan, why do we have no runners at the fall of the ball for that kick? Would love to see us spot up targets or run n gun once in a while.

 

[ODNBlue]

The fact that he is saying "I believe we are not cheats" is suspect at best. You don't speak like that if you are, in fact, not cheats. You say "We are not cheats."

 

[Just Kreuzing]

This is the worst i have seen our kicking for ages.

We just are turning it over to much.

Yep and it wont be fixed with ongoing skill development as some of these players are just too poor fundamentally, got to get rid of all of the blokes who cant kick, we resemble Richmond from a few years ago when they had the Kellaway boys etc coming off half back.

 

[Kramer1]

I'm in front of the city end goals. That free against Robinson in the square wasn't there.

I'm watching from my couch. It absolutely was.

 

[Coona Blues]

I continue to be amazed by the lack of development of our players.
Tom Bell is a potential star of the game, he has been in ths system for
nearly 2 years. No left foot, and even worse, no left hand.
WTF do they do at training???????????????????????????????????

Love Belly, but he should wake up, if they don't have him working on it,
he should seek out help in the off season and fix it. Absolute magnet with fantastic
ball getting ability, improve the disposal, and Kouta comparisons (except overhead)
will not be out of place

 

[AceAndy]

Interesting score over in WA , Freo up 10 goals to 1 at half time.

 

[T2B_]

Grr, do we need to be 30 points down to wanna run and take some risks or something? We've reverted to the boundary hugging, reactionary mob, not like what we saw in the better parts of the Richmond game.

 

[Juddalenko]

Bell also needs to understand that he can't just break tackles until he's ready to dispose in the AFL.

 

[Kramer1]

I think we are seriously missing Brock's spread...

Agree...but isnt Graham a dead ringer. Shares a similar top speed

 

[T2B_]

I'm more annoyed by Gibbs being caught on a few occasions recently, than Bell. He should know better.

 

[Juddalenko]

Many players down.....kicking off half back woeful. Plenty of improvement. The game will open up significantly in the second half which will hopefully see us tone down kicks down the boundary to a contest.

 

[Snoozer]

The captain is a cat. If he lifts his head and takes his eye off the ball once more, I'll spew.

 

[Kramer1]

Holding our own without Judd, Kreuzer, McLean and Murphy. Think its time for a Waite/Hendo switch. Need Hendo's control in the defensive 50

 

[ThePine]

Really missing walks down back and brock on the spread.

Others needs to step up. C'mon boys.

 

[T2B_]

Look at Simmo talking to the boys. Spiritual captain

 

[pepalenko]

Tells you a lot that Simmo is doing most of the talking in that huddle.

 

[T2B_]

Nice snap Hendo!

Nice tackle by Menz on Floggard too

 

[AB_Blue]

23 tick!
