Review Dees v the Dusty Tigers: the Good, Bad and Fugly

[Topkent]

Because that's what I said, that we're playing one on one footy...

Misrepresenting other people's opinions is pretty lame, even on BigFooty.

Keep punching though.

It's not a misrepresentation. You want May to play with tunnel vision and follow Riewoldt on every lead. That's not how zones work. Not that hard.

LOL! "It's not a misrepresentation! In fact, here's another thing you didn't say that I'm going to say you said!"

Cool cool cool.

 

[Topkent]

Ah yes, shots at goal as a super important stat and now "on another day" as an imaginary scenario... Oh boy.

I get it, if Riewoldt kicks 1.4 then you think May dominated him. A classic the outcome is the only thing that matters. Opinion null and void from now on.

Dustin Martin kicked 1.3 and had 25 disposals lol but Mcvee was 'good'

Come on. Dusty wins the game for them on another day

I didn't feel that Dusty had much impact until the last quarter. He wasn't great.

Woh! 1.4! Can't believe he didn't get the Checker medal! Didn't the voting committee know how important that stat is?!

Righto, so when the ball is kicked to his opponent on the lead, thennnnnnn.......

I won't push it any more. I get that we won't agree mate.

He trails massively coz hes sagging off/shadowing him 10m back for the deeper kick in a more dangerous spot, expecting the numerous teammates set up in front of him to at least make a contest on shorter passes going inside 50. Apparently our guys dont believe that is a thing however, as they think guarding space is their only responsibility. (May gave Viney and someone else an earful for not spoiling/guarding their space well enough)

Ok im done, you dont have to agree.

Good:

• We won
• Crowd and ANZAC ceremony was amazing
• I didn't get mugged on the way back to the hotel Bad
• Our structures and systems, they just look all over the place or not present at all

Ugly
- Umpiring. It was downright abhorrent.

Guarding space....? Like, in a zone....?

Ok.

 

[schmuttt]

Crowd was great tbh. Excellent Melbourne fan turnout, everyone went nuts for JVR.

Ok.

Youre allowed to spoil, mark, tackle and do other normal football things when the ball is in your area JFYI.

Made what was a shit game pretty enjoyable at times. Felt a really good dees representation

 

[PerfectFooty]

Fox Footy not even trying. Roo getting the Tigers home and i didn't realise Hamish Brayshaw became a commentator

When Melbourne needed someone to step up, Jacob van Rooyen answered that call.

The young forward exploded with three huge goals in the fourth quarter to help get the Tigers over the line, delivering on the big stage.

It started with a monster leaping contested grab in a pack before taking another minutes later as ‘Roo’ chants perforated throughout the MCG, adding one more major in the final five minutes.

“He’s been big in the last 90 seconds, the youngster standing up,” Channel 7 caller Hamish Brayshaw said of van Rooyen during the fourth term.

JVR one grabbing marks is something we never got from Weid or even hogan tbh

Not even the marks though it was the way he was slapping arms out of the way and straight lining it too. Wasn't waiting for a free kick or an easy spill he just said **** it this is my ball.

Dusty was horseshit tonight. His one good play was in pure junk time. Can’t believe anyone who watched the game with their two eyes and didn’t just check the stat sheet after would think otherwise

 

[Toump Ass]

Thought mcvee was pretty good too. Probably our safest user out of defence tonight.

I thought he was our worst user with Bowey and lost a lot of little battles. Great potential but a bad night for him. Next to no impact on the game

 

[Lord Nev]

Only a late goal to Dustin Martin got Richmond on the board in a dirty night for the Tigers’ superstar who had 0.3 and one out of bounds on the full up until the dying seconds.

First-year Dees game-winner ‘at home on big stage’; Tigers great winds back clock: 3-2-1

 

[Johnny Karate]

And there goes another gypsy on block can't be arguing with 14 year olds.

Me too. I set a pretty low bar, I’ve never had danster168 on mine. Maybe I’ll revisit if I ever feel like getting permabanned.

 

[The Dr]

First time I've seen us live this year. Showed a lot of grit to win a game when a lot went wrong on the night.

Tigers were so smart early, chipping the ball inside their forward half or even going along the ground and forcing our defenders to fight at ground level, which they're pretty shit at.

Viney was immense and even kicked the ball really well; Gus' best game of the year and JVR was obviously epic in the last.

When you think that a good game and a bad game are separated only by how accurate their opponent kicks. Blocked.
All you're doing is basing your opinion on the result. Probably think it was a good team performance as well

That was a low blow, sweeping of the leg Johnny

 

[Jamurp]

Olivers goal on 3/4 time was massive too, crowd went nuts as did the players, got us going for the finish we had.
