Game Day Opening Round vs. GWS, Giants Stadium, 7:30pm Sat 09/03

[gouki88]

Our ruck situation still worries me immensely

 

[JOELY]

Not many defenders are stopping that.

 

[CasuallyDressed]

GWS are gonna have a GF recall over this game.

 

[jathanas]

we’ve played s**t. More inside 50’s but you ain’t winning games against a flag contender kicking 6.13 for the first 3 quarters. We move on.

The over the top reactions on here after the first game are amazing

I agree. Totally OTT these drama-queens.

I've sent an abusive email to the club and burnt both my premiership T-shirts, but the 2024 membership was only microwaved for 30 seconds (in case we turn our fortunes around against Sydney).

 

[jmac70]

Surely you’re taking this piss.

As if a week earlier after 4+ months off makes a difference.

We won the flag.
We should be playing round 1 at the G.
Not being used as a boost for an AFL run side.

 

[gouki88]

We look like a Bottom 4 side tonight

Well yes, only 4 winners this round

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

McCree

I’m sorry, but I don’t know how Dean got a game….

Don't think he will ever be a regular. Looks weak against Hogan. We have had so many sub standard players tonight.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

This is a clown show.

 

[Kes1984]

Sloppy sloppy sloppy

 

[jjsmitty8]

One thing among many that frustrates me is fact that Jesse Hogan

is marking everything and now kicked 4, he’s destroying us. Would love for our All-Australian captain to sacrifice his own game to go and actually lock down on the opposition’s best forward instead of letting Charlie Dean drown.

We should be playing round 1 at the G.
Not being used as a boost for an AFL run side.

But it has seriously made no difference in our performance.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Not one defender has gone near Brown all night!

 

[Rustin Cohle]

I don't wanna completely write him off but Elliott looks ****ing cooked.

 

[Kes1984]

Didaka voting will be hard tonight.

Steele 3
Distantly Naicos 2
Not sure anyone else should get votes

 

[Doc1763]

thats how you kick a set shot

 

[anshell]

Damn the AFL for their stupid round zero in the friggen first week of March and making us play on this stupid little ground as well.

 

[biggus_di]

Dirty night, haven't had a shocker like this in a long time. But we'll be fine, not worried.

 

[gouki88]

Miles better than our old Cal Brown

 

[Apples]

Thought we'd get a belting tonight, but even so, we look insipid. So many of our play makers can't get a look in. De Goey, Mitchell, Elliott, Pendles, Bobby, Cox. This will be Fly's biggest loss by far. We have played with no flair, agro or system. Time to forget this one and reset for the Swans.

 

[bucksisbest]

Dont know whose playing on Brown as noone has been on screen everytime he has had it inside 50 tonight.

 

[Chronz]

Brown 5.0
Hogan 4.0

This would never happen against any other side. Baffling.

Is Moore even out there?

I thought Cameron has been good.
Steele has only touched it 12 times.
Is Maynard playing on Green? If so, he is probably up there in our best.

 

[Rusty Beam]

Elliot is looking seriously out of sorts.

Maybe his back issues have caught up with him. He looks ridiculously rigid for a small bloke.

 

[gouki88]

Daisy called our dismantling "pleasing" lmao

Definitely a Pies man!
