Gameday - Adelaide v West Coast

[FantasticShirt]

sellars couldn't look more ordinary if he was purposely trying

Hilarious they have him matched up for large periods of time one of Cox or NicNat....

 

[OldCrowBloke]

Well, the pain is over again for this week.

Or maybe it is just starting????

True, but I'll still let shit fly if Petrenko gets dropped instead of Symes.

True, Pets gave us a lot more than many of his mates

 

[kickavic]

i cant watch this. i can only see live score updates on this 3rd world internet. how many goals are they getting from turnarounds from our kick-ins? and how was our efforts in the 1st and 3rd quarters where they only scored 1goal3 each. does that end have a sstiff breeze or was it genuine effort from our guys?

anyone?

 

[ltdamn]

Someone find us a ****ing goalkicking coach.

And a ruck coach and a midfield coach and a forward coach

 

[OldCrowBloke]

Doughty was another who was worse than poor today. Have not looked at stats, but I lost count of how many frees against he seemed to have...

 

[swanfan]

And a ruck coach and a midfield coach and a forward coach

And a head coach.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

Senior Coach

 

[Sir Vlado]

Most importantly, we need an everything coach.

EDIT: DAMN IT.

 

[OldCrowBloke]

anyone?

One end was clearly favoured by the breeze, but it seemed that both teams played with more intensity going that way.

captains mark....

One shit quarter again, I thought we were pretty good for the rest of it. Vince hitting some form, Thommo again, Stiffy down back solid and Sloaney was good all day. I also thought Sellar was ok, certainly not as bad as being made out on here. Guntson, Dougie and Wright were ok in patches.

Reilly was utter trash though, utter trash.

Agree with nearly all of this, except the bit about Sellar. Was OK a couple of times when he got a chance at an uncontested mark, but I can't think of a contest he actually won.

On MMM Melbourne Riccuito gave the worst on ground votes:

3. Sellar
2. Reilly
1. Knights

Yep without johncock cleaning up back there for him it would of been much more obvious how he dotted around like a drunk, he even managed to drop skied uncontested marks. He had no business against any WC tall they are all far superior players...

Solid votes

Knights, There has to be some backlash on this guy at some stage for the lack of forward line pressure, but surely the KPFs will cop it instead.

 

[Tas]

Are you for real

Those are Riccuito's votes, not mine.

On another note, before the game started he was asked about coaching and he said he had interest in coaching but if it didn't happen in the next couple of years then it probably wont. I don't think he was referring to the Crows job, just coaching in general.

Knights had 16 disposals and 1 tackle - ahead of ten other players today.
2 clanger shots at goal were poor, but he seemed to be getting into the game more than he has in recent weeks.

Poor old Tippett was creditted with 1 (that's one!!!) touch, Smack only 6 touches with 2 frees against, Doughty 13 possessions with 4 frees against (but credited with 9 tackles).

I think Roo got it wrong on Knights

He was critical of his 31% disposal efficiency, doesn't believe someone at AFL level should be so bad with the ball use.

He also said he didn't like having to give Reilly votes because they are mates, but he felt he lacked impact at the stoppages and wasn't getting the ball, didn't lay many tackles.

He did give an honourable mention to Tippett and Smack and said Tippett getting hurt saved him from votes.

They are not meant to give votes to kids with less than 50 games unless they were spectacularly bad.

Dangerfield was miles ahead of Knights for that one vote.

Thanks for the extra info.

On those criteria, he should maybe have left out Sellar (although he was VERY bad)

Geez, I didn't notice that disposal efficiency for Knights, reckon Roo might have got that one right!
