A fool hey......ok sorry for my opinion!
Yep Matt Carr is second on the league list with 31 goals....and for mine a good player.......but would not say he is starring against the best teams only kicking 7 combined against (HM-0, Taty-5 & Moy-Will-2).......meaning he is averaging 6 per game agst the comps shit.
Todd Lamont getting double-teamed each week...wow!...we put a 19yr old kid playing his 10th senior game on him last week....result 1 goal.....He certainly would be a worry for most clubs with his big haul of 12 goals this season.lol.......has kicked 1 goal only agst (HM, Taty & Moy-Will).
Then thats it!......no other player in double figures....next is big Jezza Baker- 9, and good bloke and all, he is well past his best and will not hurt anyone come final's time.
I didn't mention Burmeister, and I can't comment on whether all teams double-team him, but he has kicked a few more than Lamont...28 to 12.
In fact all the teams that are in the top 4 have superior forward set-ups than Lis-Derr......stats tell us Lis-Derr have 67 goals less than H-M, 22 fewer than Moy-Will & 18 fewer than Taty.
Hawk-Mac have 6 players with 9 or more goals, Taty have 6 players with 9 or more goals & Moy-Will have 8 players with 9 or more goals......you blokes have 3 only........so a lot of your goals come through the midfield group........HENCE IDIOT!! (one all now on the slanging front)....why I said play a couple of the midfielders close (Knight & Henderson) and you can bring the Derri Demons to an almighty halt!
Yes even though four of that midfield group did not play(bold), you still have some good players in there.......but curb Knight & Henderson's output and a few of the younger players are not as effective.........therefore your current two trick forward line is easily negated.
And yeh, it is too bad they did not try a different mix a bit earlier last weekend, but maybe some of that coaching money has seen some brain cells turn to smoke!
Like I said your forward line is so so and I will stick to that assumption and back it up with stats, until as a group they prove me wrong......plus I never said your midfield was not good.....but only stated that all we had too do last week was negate a couple and stifle yr so so forwards supply.
Result: Knight out of best players, Henderson ok, but denied space across half back were he likes to set up for 3 quarters!....was good in last term when went forward and used his hard body & experience to nearly get them up.
Carr kicked four, but two as an onballer in the last term....Lamont 1.
Equals = RAMS VICTORY!
Yeh I am the fool, you idiot!
ps: your beers were ok though, didn't leave clubrooms until 7pm, admiring Hendo's cut above the cheekbone - payback for kneeing a kid in the ribs while on the ground near the boundary line in the third term.
