Game Day Dogs v Crows

[doggies ftw]

Bailey Williams is quietly back! He has his composure back which is the main thing for him - he is an elite user with time, and now he’s back to his best at taking on the tackler and taking his time to dispose.

Much more damaging from a wing too, really good player

I thought we were kicking against a slight breeze? The kicks seems to be going a big long, Bakers ran on and Lobb had one earlier that flew longer than expected

Smith playing very well last month

BOG so far, love to see it - people have forgotten how good he can be. This is his prototype game currently, inside/outside midfielder, transitions the ball from inside to outside as good as anyone in the comp

 

[ossie_21]

Harsh HTB call. Hopefully Williams makes them pay

Took possession & took on the tackle with an arm free, which then got tied up and he couldn’t dispose of it. HTB 8 days of the week

Being used amazingly well - go to their best player and run off them. Same as last week. Learning from Treloar no doubt

 

[tonzdogs]

Macrae back to his old best today

 

[_Mike_]

Williams look where you pass, had plenty of time to get the free player

 

[_Mike_]

Just not converting, could be 30 up

Bont loves a cheeky hitting the post

 

[RG16]

Gardner is doing it all today

 

[VL3OJ]

Temp has dropped 2 or 3 degrees just now at the 31min mark and the rain about to commence big time. Send an ark and emergency lighting for q4. A handy lead

 

[doggies ftw]

On a negative note the selection of JOD is just bewildering, we do not need a 4th tall and we have no use for him or confidence in him that he’s barely playing half a qtr on the ground.

We’re a man down again, and honestly - why? What is the point?

Nothing against the kid but it’s just mind numbing. It’s so clear how much more influential McNeil would be to help lock it in after repeat entries than an extra tall when we already have no issue bringing the ball to ground

 

[Mofra]

If only we had two Chris Grants Robert Murphys Ryan Gardners

 

[_Mike_]

Good qtr by the Dogs, elite pressure but just not putting enough on the board when the ball was in their fw50 for 70+% of the time

Given he hardly played forward in his 3 VFL games either...

 

[Doggies_13]

Dominant, only thing missing was finishing off our chances and limiting their clearances, pressure has been outstanding though and post clearance work great

Seems very odd

 

[bresker]

We are so all over this . I honestly feel a bit sorry for the Crows backs against Naughton. He’s terrifying .

I expect he will be replaced by another player from the VFL. There isn’t many options…. which is the problem.

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Bont loves a cheeky hitting the post

He surely hits the post more than 99% of players. Naughton hits his fair share too.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Great first quarter, just hope the inaccuracy doesn’t haunt us. If Bont’s or Cody’s late shots are a goal or would be a really handy lead

 

[tonzdogs]

Those 3 huge outs for the Crows has been massive for us as I knew it would be, time to get some % back

 

[Unorth]

JoD over Buku is pretty much indefensible but fortunately it’s a fringe issue and not impacting us too much.

But there is no argument about time on ground when jod sits for half the game.
