Preview Marsh Week 2 - Hawthorn v Melbourne - UTas Stadium - Friday March 6, 7.40pm

[Davo23]

Jake Melksham a pre-season star, always looks good in March.

Has he still got some Essendone in him?

Missing a big bodied midfielder!! When angus brayshaw is destroying you!

Stratts is having a mare. Been reactive all night which is not a good sign going forward. Sicily needs to be told to stop taking the piss and get serious. His field kicking has been terrible because he can't be bothered. We're not a good enough team yet for blokes to think they can do what they like out there.

Big boy experiment should end now

Morrison a lock for round 1 surely. Been very composed and played within his limits. Ollie and Nash should both be in the round 1 side ahead of Poppy.

Why CJ isn’t playing tonight I can’t understand.

Practice match so meh whatever but pretty uninspiring.

Skills and decisions really poor. Same slow and long forward entries that have been deplorable for a few years.

No real movement of ball from backline to forward line of any note.

Haven’t seen any benefit to overall set up with McEvoy back. We don’t look stronger in any part of the ground for it.

Who isn’t playing that is likely to come in round 1? O’Brien and Henderson? No Gunston, Hardwick or Impey.

Don’t really care if we win or not but was hoping to see something positive from the game and it’s provided donuts.

Ah well, get this stuff out of the system now.

Zero positivity out of this performance. Typical Tasmanian game also.

Fitness not structure is what I'm seeing, like dancing with your sister, it's just a dance and nothing more.

This game reminds me a bit of when GWS first played GC17, no one was interested. Sicily is playing tonight, he's not not even interested.

Fundamental issues are the slowness of our team, our backline with BB their may well be the slowest backline selected in the modern era, it just doesn't work, neither he, nor stratts nor Frawley are attacking so we have possibly at best three players to attack thru, any opposition coach could work out who they are.

Midfields been poor except Ceglar who is the only one not beaten by an opponent.

Forwadline is also slow and pedestrian.

Basically we have recruited a slow team... well not entirely but we have presented a slow team.

It's glaringly obvious we lack that decent small who can shut down a player like Melksham without Dimma. CJ is the perfect match-up as he can go with him in the air. Stratts appears out of sorts or dare I say it past it ATM.

Clarko heard you!

 

[KermitJagger]

Cannot believe the melts over a preseason game

 

[Max Powers]

Commentators saying Ceglar enjoying Gawn off the ground wasn't Cegs beating him when he was on ?

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Clarko heard you!

Yep clearly has seen enough of who we had out there. Get the guy on who has impressed the most so far this pre season.

 

[Max Powers]

Not Mitch Lewis YOU BASTARDS!!!!

 

[kazzooka]

I think Lewis broke his foot there...

 

[Luv_our_club]

Why kick long to a 50/50 when there is a 20 meter open man? It has happened all night. The want to be 100 point team may create some problems early in the season.

 

[KermitJagger]

We were playing with 2 less rotations off the bench than Melbourne for 3/4, with Jiath and Cousins not playing a minute.

No he wasn’t IMO

Melbourne playing out of their asses but if this is as good as our pressure on the opposition gets this season- we are miles off it
