Review Dees vs Essendank - The good, the bad and the fugly

[deeco]

Weids offseason hand transplant going well, hopefully he doesn't walk past a building site and accidentally fall into wet concrete hands first again ala this man:

I really liked Sparrow's goal. He gets so much on his kicks and he is accurate. Pretty awesome weapon that he has for a player of his type.

Do you wanna win or make bloody friends

 

[Topkent]

Weed might be the only player I've ever seen who needs mid game councelling sessions. Fair dinkum sort out his head and there's a footballer in there somewhere. He was as good as Brown until it came to doing what he's really paid to do

 

[Topkent]

Haven’t seen people talk about Harmes much, thought he had an excellent second half and helped us get back into it after that bombers burst to start the second half.

He never gets his credit. Kicked 2 huge goals back to back to help us. If you just accept he ain't Petracca he can be a surprisingly good player.

 

[Proper Gander]

You didn’t see the ball go through his hands multiple times?

Definitely playing better than I’d expected but Lever can’t come back soon enough

I reckon 2 goals at least came as a result of dropping the chest mark. He might have saved one or two also, but he’s breaking even - not doing a Lever. Like you say, he is doing more than I expected so good on him, but I want Lever back BIG TIME

Jackson dropped a simple mark that led to a goal as well. Thought Smith was clutch under pressure a few times, I'd rather drop Tomlinson (Who is looking glacial) for Lever.

The only conclusion I can draw from your list is that we drop Jackson for Lever

 

[stEdy]

I just wanna drop Tmac though

Maybe I only noticed this cause I'm a Koz nuffy, had a stinker of a night but I loved that double effort in the last where he busted a gut to Intercept on the HBF and then few seconds later dived in for a smother. Soon as we got it back he nearly beat everyone back inside 50.

 

[Topkent]

Oh no. He's going to force her to watch one of our games from 2004.

my expectations for Kozzy are too high to be giving out an encouragement award to him

should be bordering on being dropped. But we all know that wont happen.

Wish I could tattoo the moment he rubbed his head into the ground on my chest

3 works better for my argument

no doubt, something is wrong with him though, dont know what, he either doesn't look fit (aerobically) or is injured. Back in the day you'd say there is a good chance he has osteitis pubis

Possibly, seems to moving ok though small forwards are very feast or famine. Still only a 3rd year player an no doubt the oppo are putting alot of time into him.
Probably doesn't know how to get the easy touches just yet.


Spargo has 1 goal and 4 less tackles. Think you're just holding Koz to a way higher standard.

Spargo has been shit also, and ive been vocal about that. Kozzy just doesn't look dynamic more so than anything, any pace he had looks to have disappeared.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Looked the same in the preseason, thought it may have just been that he wasn't up for preseason games and would turn it on once the season hit kind of like Jacko has but its carried on.

That was amazing stuff, and shows how valuable he is even when he’s not kicking goals.

Kozzys workrate is insane at the ground and whilst he is still putting in for that area of his game he won’t be dropped. He does have a MCG hoodoo though, his averages there would be way worse than away from home.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if he's doing so much defensive running he's lost a little of his attacking game. He genuinely works as hard as ANB.

It was great but other than that he was nowhere near any of the contests he should have been at
