Review Good/Bad vs Brisbane, R22 2023

[Southerntakeover]

Don’t think it’s mental, I think it will click quickly as this group continue to get experience. Finals would be great this year but I don’t think make a difference to 2024.

Given that your blind optimism has been correct precisely zero percent of the time, i'm sure just backing the club in and waiting will work this time.

 

[kirky]

And you're hardly a good judge, some of your posting is cringeworthy.

I respect your footy opinions but Butts has woeful disposal.

When are people going to stop making excuses for Thilthorpe, yeah he's young and talls take time but he is not a 85kg string bean he's an athletic 202cm 105kg man mountain, he should be hitting the contest with much more intent and aggression.

Your last sentence is why he won't be a proper key forward.


Maybe a roaming CHF type forward.



He is a Ruckman/midfielder.


See his deft tap to Sloane. Two years time that will be his bread and butter.

Port Power supporters think we be worst next season because of Sloane and Smith lol. We've been carrying these 2 players for the entire season.

If what you're saying is correct, he's a bust and we should fire Hamish.

Thankfully it's nonsense. And we should fire Hamish.

I don't disagree with you, but it hasn't clicked for him yet. Nicks should have another plan to get him into the game.

RT has amazing skills for a big guy, we aren't seeing enough of it.

He is not a ruckman's bootlace at AFL level, not now, not ever.

LOL, if these two were out for the whole of this year we would be well entrenched in the 8.

Amazing game to be at.

A guy I was with won $26,000 at the raffle.

Why do you only hate our talented players?

Kick straight you muppets

That is incorrect, avail yourself of AFL pro stats (champion data) if you don't believe me.

 

[WetCrow1991]

Dawson, Soligo, Rachelle involved positively in the 4th quarter.

Sloane invisible in the 4th.

carnage, our backline was very good today.


Daniher and Hipwood could have easily dominated today.


Daniher's only contribution came from a dodgy free kick.

A few sloppy errors early. Nank handball cost is a goal. Borlase dropping a chest mark cost is a goal. But they stood up well over the four quarters.

Good: A team that are not a bunch of losers, The Matildas, won.

 

[Mutineer]

I don't hate any player for your information but Thilthorpe with his size and athleticism should be playing with more intent and aggression at the contest surely you can see that.

 

[rabidcrow]

Some hard markers on this board, the lad's gave their all and came up one kick short against a genuine Premiership contender on their home deck with a very inexperienced backline against one of the most dangerous if not the most dangerous forward set ups in the AFL. One ball bounced the other way and we win the game.

I reckon 95% of people are lying if they say we haven’t had a better season than they thought we would have at the start of the year

Full strength Brisbane - we got closer to them than anyone else with key personnel out

Bitterly disappointing but a great effort

Good: I likoKeays game, Crouch’s game. Is it me or has Milera matured in recent games?
Bad: really silly turnovers that were due to poor skills as opposed to opposition pressure.
Ugly: inability to win away again!

Brilliant: Matildas won!!!!

Watching it at the ground, his hands are excellent but when things are being set up he's often positioning himself slightly under the ball. Not sure what the solution to that is.

 

[Bob Neil]

Thilthorpe really disappointed tonight. Meek in ruck and at the high ball. Back to the reserves for you

At the ground it was so obvious how overmatched he was against Andrews. Was a really costly battle that we just couldn’t contain.

 

[rabidcrow]

So good to see Schoenberg coming good , huge player for us next year hopefully he never looks back

These losses are too much to take

Unfort need another pre season

Rachele - was good to see him and his zest back

Sloane needs to retire as we all know

Rach looked much better this week. Spewing he hit the post though!!

At least even he conceded Sloane looks totally cooked but then contradicted himself by think Sloane was good this year and was important on our rise up the ladder.

 

[dogs105]

If Sloane announces retirement:

In: Rachele

Out: Murphy



If he doesn't

In: Rachele

Out: Sloane

 

[radzyb]

If Matt Crouch played all year they would've made the finals.

He is shit. Can't run, can't kick, can't handball.

Move the f on

It's a new generation

Yeah I tend to agree. He’s not exactly bruise free footy, but he’s not doing enough to influence his presence when the ball is not being perfectly delivered to him.
