Preview Changes v *, Sunday 1:10pm (* home game, replacement game for NMFC members)

No Jy again. Quad still an issue.

 

[DuckYeah]

I'll give Drury props, he always chases, but if you aren't getting close and tackling them or at least applying perceived pressure then it counts for nothing.

Curtis gives up, Stephenson gives up, Zurhaar gives up and Duursma hasn't shown any defensive intensity across half forward. You can't just say that Ford is the only one who doesn't give it his all in that department.

Difference between Ford, Drury, Stephenson ect is that he actually puts on scoreboard pressure. Also far more creative on a wing compared to a deadset plodder in Tucker.

Blind freddy can see he and his mates simply dont work hard enough when the ball isn’t around.

It stands out like dogs balls.

Drury dropped. Durrsma emergency.

Reckon Bergman, Pink, Taylor and Stephens all come in? Lazzaro holds his spot.

OUT: McKercher Phillips Hardeman Drury
IN: Bergman Taylor Pink Stephens (Lazzaro)

Drury will be in over cat stephens I reckon.

You know what puts pressure on the opposition more than tackling and more than pressure acts....hitting the ****ing scoreboard, which Ford does on a regular basis.

Either way, there seems to be a set of rules for Ford and a separate set of rules for the likes of Stephenson, Zurhaar, Tucker, Stephens ect.

 

[Ashley B]

The thing that hurts us most is turnovers and bad ones which occur regularly. As these decrease everything else should improve. As they say turnovers take time

For the 2 goals he scores the opposition are scoring more from their defensive half vs us than anyone else. We are being mauled from there. Our half forwards dont work hard enough. And Ford especially doesn’t work hard enough. You can throw others names into the ring. I wont dispute that, but even JS does more than him.

We are tanking

I hope someone lets the club know that Reid was in last years draft…

 

[Disco Dew]

That Tucker kick to larkey in a 400 on 1 the obvious one but holy **** we are good at almost never using the best option.

Oh how I yearn for the days when we're a competent football team, trying to beat whoever we play on the weekend

[TennisPlayerAndy]

If I had the time or the inclination, I’d list every teams 26 and over players.

Ours would be so far and away the worst in the league.

 

[Samsquanch]

The recruitment by Brady between 2013 and 2019 clearly stunk.

 

[DuckYeah]

Kick full length? if he plays his max distance is 15 metres?
