Preview Changes: Round 12 v St Kilda

[marty36]

Our team is soft we have players like JJ, Mackay Atkins that seriously need to eat some concrete and I'm not convinced either crouch is hard and I didn't think Greenwood was hard either

These basketballers don't like the physical stuff like a real footballer

The game day thread talks about how soft we are being so pick some players with a bit of mongrel please

You are miles off with Greenwood sorry.

 

[The Karma Bus]

Wtf is going on with talia? He has been terrible this year. 4 possesion games are a disgrace.

Not just that.
I've been amazed at how rattled he looks.
He gets so shakey under pressure, dropping so many marks, mistiming spoils and leaps, poor decisions.
Used to look like a confident rock.

Matt Crouch and greenwood were pretty good last night and 2 of the only players to actually do anything.

Has the pressure of being the key defender finally got to him?

Pretty stressful role, I wonder if the accumulative stress eventually gets to some full backs eg Mick Martyn at the end of his career.

I thought Matt crouch played well Greenwood not so but my comment was about hardness and as far as I am concerned we lost the game because we are soft

Perhaps it's indicative of a broader issue. Do we, as a team, fear failure? We sure play like we're psyched out in pressure situations. Or maybe Talia has been so busy locking blokes down for the past 3 years that he's simply forgotten how to football.

Greenwood is the biggest positive of the season so far.

Problem is he doesn't have a big body. He can't do the damage of a Danger, Selwood etc

Greenwood had 11 tackles and is not your typical basketballer. Has done plenty of hard stuff since coming in and was comfortably in our best, and hardest, 6 players against Geelong.

Atkins, Jenkins, Mackay are all soft. No argument there.

What?? He's 193 and 90

So if they are soft and we lost that game based on the fact we were soft Ccks should they be the first out and replace say with beech Wigg and dare I say it Thommo I would have gone cheney as he is a mongrel but he played shit today

Wtf

Some think he is the next coming of Thor his game is good I'm not complaining but he doesn't have the strength we need, we already have talented mids in Sloane and crouches we need a big body who can clear some room Greenwood at 193 and only 90 kilo is lanky
