Unofficial Preview Footy's back! MELBOURNE v ADELAIDE this Saturday Feb 22, 2020

[deeztreez]

Matty just ironed out Oliver

Olivers been bullying Chayce all game. Had it coming..

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Are you serious? He’s been absolute dog shit.

Worst player on the ground alongside Gibbs and Laird did two tenths of fk all.

Laird is being rested for the bushfire game. Doubt he has played many minutes at all!

Gibbs has been awful.

 

[Mutineer]

He’s down a few flashy things that tricks people into thinking he’s been gone.

He’s shirked contests, his direct opponent has run ragged at stoppages, and when he has had time and space he’s chosen poor options when we had others free, or just turned it over full stop.

I don’t know why we’re wasting our time playing him as an inside mid. We have about a million better options. Should hopefully play plenty of SANFL this year if Nicks wants to get serious.

Nope.

 

[Runnin Blue]

Time to drag Gibbs ‘round the back of the barn and put him out of his misery, methinks. Or our misery.

 

[brucetiki]

Ha! Commentators harping on about Oliver being cleaned up, yet Jones trips a Crow up and they’re more focused on Jones being injured

 

[Godallblighty]

I had high expectations of Gibbs recovering form this year. But he has been dismal.

 

[Murray2503]

Well we know Gibbs hasn't improved over preseason. Is worse. No round 1 for him.

 

[azza77]

Nope.

Well enjoy a fantastic season of turnovers and holding onto the ball and getting pinged then. Can’t wait!

Well done Barry!

 

[Southerntakeover]

Not sure if I like Crocker because he's good, or its just that he looks so different to our prototype.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

What happened to Sloane?

 

[NikkiNoo]

Crocker presents beautifully at the ball. Love a forward that leads at the ball carrier and causes the defender to panic.

 

[SydCrow]

Poholke burst out of the blocks but has really slowed

Total fumblebum today

 

[MRB37]

Head contact and then a throw all ignored. Two frees to Poholke there.

 

[jenny61_99]

don't like some of the short passing

Omg! Short passing against the breeze , long passing WITH the breeze. It’s not that hard.

 

[SydCrow]

What happened to Sloane?

Hip cork

 

[MRB37]

What happened to Sloane?

Hip pointer.

 

[rocket18]

Yes Jason early contact in the marking contest = two handed push in the back.

 

[Murray2503]

What happened to Sloane?

Hip pointer

 

[ams4crows]

Olivers been bullying Chance all game. Had it coming..

cant believe theyre talking about reporting M.Crouch for hitting him in the chest

 

[relapse]

Time to drag Gibbs ‘round the back of the barn and put him out of his misery, methinks. Or our misery.

My biggest issue with Gibbs even when he was at Carlton is the fact that he's so laconic.

Gibbs has been awful.

Laird has really frustrated me in the last 12-18 months. When he first came onto the scene he was an animal. He had McHenry like tenacity and aggression, refused to give his opponent an inch of space and absolutely HATED being beaten.

Nowdays he just seagulls on the outside of the contest looking for cheap touches and his direct opponent runs riot.

Saw more of the same in his first hit out so nothings changed (early days tho)

You are watching a different game. Atkins has been very good with the exception of a couple of mistakes.

 

[DroppingTheBall]

Who were the 8 players we swapped out/in at half time?
