Review Good, bad and Talia v West Coast

[Smoooothy]

Bad - Jenkins will almost certainly be back next week

 

[thebirdman 24]

west coast is what we should be but instead we went down the path of chapman, trigg, fagan, burton all ripping the club apart.

 

[BRL121]

Talia and the umps cost the game. He should definitely be dropped for that effort in kicking across the ground: completely unnecessary risk, and highly momentum sapping. That's a coach-killer moment.

By the way, is it OK for Kennedy to fend off Talia in the face before going for a mark?
Is it OK to clutch Eddie's jumper in a marking contest?

 

[Mego Red]

notch that one up to the umpiring. Why cant they just let it run naturally, why do they have to get them back in the game? They can get themselves back in. Then when we needed the frees, deserved the frees, crickets chirping.

In hindsight, jenkins in looked like a wise idea now.

Umpires and Himmelberg cost us the game. I completely agree.

 

[Mego Red]

Absolutely unacceptable. How the **** can you be up by 33 points in the third quarter AT HOME then proceed to score 17 points to 62 since.

Disgusting effort.

All of the garbage free kicks don't help.

 

[inkabella]

I'm just going to go with the bad
Knight - useless
Tex love him, but if they are going to make a statement with JJ ...they need to do the same with Tex..he needs a spell
Himmelberg - needs a rest
Umpires- absolute shit

 

[the universal]

I want Mark Riccuito to piss off from this club and stop commentating AFC games.

 

[Mego Red]

Good? What did he do? A couple of tackles and should of been done cold Htb. Kennedy was a key forward who stood up when it mattered.

A kick to a one on one would be nice. Tex made something out of complete garbage.

 

[Brave Sir Robin]

If it's any consolation this is how we felt playing you blokes at home last year.

Peace Adelaide bros (and lady bros), got a lot of time for you.

Good- he'll replace Walker

 

[Mego Red]

Himmelberg is an absolute embarrassment.

 

[Magma]

60 more touches, 12 more inside 50's, 3 more scoring shots, lose by 2 goals. chalk that up to ugly.

 

[Minor Threat]

When WCE kicked it in, took 3 contested marks down the line and then kicked a goal from a set shot I knew we were done.
How can a team ever allow that to happen and it’s also something the crows have never been able to do!
Frustrating

 

[hey shorty]

Solid thread title.

Kudos.

Talia has ALWAYS struggled against Kennedy

There were far worse than Knight out there. He seems to be the new whipping boy...

 

[Vooligan]

Himmelberg has to have a spell. Tex wasn’t much better, but we all know we don’t have the guts to drop a captain. Jenkins for sure, will be back.

 

[Mego Red]

Umpires cost us that.

A competently umpired third quarter and we win.

 

[Damp Squarie]

I want Mark Riccuito to ******** from this club and stop commentating AFC games.

Yep, I agree.
He has a voice like he's been kicked in the nuts and is bordering on Dwayne

 

[Mego Red]

Himmelberg has to have a spell. Tex wasn’t much better, but we all know we don’t have the guts to drop a captain. Jenkins for sure, will be back.

Tex at least competed.

 

[Dewy006]

I like ROB but I've said this before, he's near on a liability at the centre bounce. He can't jump, he continuously gets jumped over by the oppo ruckman. Our mids can't get proactive at all. Was a huge reason for our centre clearance issues.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

All of the garbage free kicks don't help.

I'm not blaming umpires for a 17-62 point turnaround in less than a half of footy, that's on the players.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

What has Riley Knight ever done besides kick that important goal in the 2015 elimination final?

 

[mattymac]

It is time for the rebuild now. We can't contest with this list.

Idiots at both ends in Talia and Walker and a non-competitive midfield.

Is there a team with lower footy IQ in their leadership group?

Betts has completely lost his hands below his knees. He should retire.

Our leaders are morons and do moronic things.

Himmelberg is not the answer unless the question is who is even worse than Walker. We need Fog in and we need to recruit a partner for him because we don't have one currently on our list.

A few absolute battlers we're persisting with for god knows why. Foremost among them Knight who turned everything he touched to shit.

I know Crouch and Lynch were out but Crouch is not a player that hurts you and would not have made the difference. And this was precisely the type of game where lynch goes missing under pressure.

 

[jackster83]

I tipped them even before Lynch was out.

Pathetic and spineless performance led by a useless co-captain and a clueless coaching and selection committee.

 

[secondary]

The good, the bad, and the how did we let that slip?
