This. I reckon he was battling away but looked a bit ginger at times.Second game back is often not as good as the first.
Great it will be then.I want better than good
yup. It’s almost like we are just giving away a 50m free and allowing teams free forward entries with how much uncontested we allow.Great it will be then.
Really need to sort out the way we are defending all over the ground. They just picked us to pieces.
Agreed. The non existent pressure & tackling was incredibly frustrating to watch.Great it will be then.

The thing is it seemed to be positioning more than workrate.Agreed. The non existent pressure & tackling was incredibly frustrating to watch.
Complete opposite of what I was hoping for & expecting after the media attention all week.
Was both I thought. We looked so flat footed all night. Just no tackling whatsoever & ball watching. So slow. Very unCollingwood like.The thing is it seemed to be positioning more than workrate.
Outcoached. They had a plan how to pick us apart and we weren't able to adjust.
I don't think iq on the wing helped. He's not smart enough. We no longer own the wings. They're just pulling straight back into defensive 50.
I was watching essendon players just peeling off and going wide without our players following them. The same thing happened last week. I don't know if it's game plan or work rateGreat it will be then.

Workrate I think. We've hit a flat spot the last few weeks. Only Nick running his guts out.I was watching essendon players just peeling off and going wide without our players following them. The same thing happened last week. I don't know if it's game plan or work rate
It looked really badWorkrate I think. We've hit a flat spot the last few weeks. Only Nick running his guts out.
We looked slow & flat footed like we did in that patch at the end of the h&a season last year.It looked really bad
What did we do to deserve such a wretched run of injuries. It's mind bogglingWe looked slow & flat footed like we did in that patch at the end of the h&a season last year.
Compounded by the never ending injuries & ins & outs is definitely not helping with our (lack of) connection.

Why don't those campaigners ever get injuries. Even Ginnivan has a broken leg but will only miss one week. We are cursedHope we pass it on to Carlton. They’d be ****ed with the injuries we have. They have nothing in the VFL.

Reactive as opposed to proactive all night bar ten minutes int he first and last terms.It looked really bad
What was equally frustrating was the number of times they clunked marks in packs when we had the likes of Frampton and Moore contesting at one end and Krueger and Checkers at the other. We couldn't even halve most contests.It looked horrible at the ground. You could see it unfolding. They switched really well and kept doing it until they reached their half forward line uncontested then long kick to their talls or leading forwards to the pocket. It was so predictable and we were either unable to or chose not to react.
Interestingly their game almost replicated how GWS played the prelim against us. We were lucky to get away that day but surely we could have predicted this is how teams will open the zone up.
There is an arrogance about ‘the way we play’ and it has given us two successful years.
I don't know the answer. Im not a coach but as a fan it was frustrating to see where the next kick was going to and us zoning in between the kickers. We were always outnumbered in transition.

Having talls does not guarantee marking prowess though.What was equally frustrating was the number of times they clunked marks in packs when we had the likes of Frampton and Moore contesting at one end and Krueger and Checkers at the other. We couldn't even halve most contests.
Sternum? I don't recall them mentioning sternum.As expected, it is OP, groin issues. Not this sternum the club tried to sell us.
right, that's the one. Abominal lol I knew it was something like thatSternum? I don't recall them mentioning sternum.
Hasn't it always been groin issues & an abdominal tear?
And he’s our most explosive player.OP is a pain in the butt (front butt, specifically), just totally hampers your explosiveness.
