Game Day Rd 18 Pies V Cats Fri July 12 2024 740 pm @ MCG

[Lana]

One hell of a frustrating half of footy.

We've gotten near nothing from good structural play, we're been half a moment off half a dozen times. And we've given them the reverse.

 

[cats_09]

I actually think there’s a jumper clash. How else would you explain some of the strange disposals

I said that earlier

In space it's not so bad, but in congestion I'm not sure it's so easy to tell the players apart

 

[Lana]

Collingwood at times have pulled out that richmond crap

 

[splashwave]

Would love the boys to realise they’re going to knock it into space and handball over their shoulder at every opportunity. We’re contesting those situations like we expect them to just grab the ball and absorb a tackle.

 

[Klink]

100% on their terms.

Not happy with this

Yep, this is exactly what they wanted. Mcrae getting it on their terms. Credit, because Scott IM is the best coach in it.

They'll back themselves in to win if it's close

is as average ruckman as Stanley is.. But seriously SDK isn't a ruckman, the stats are clearly there... Asmuch as average Stanley is as a ruckman, he needs to play if his fit

37 hitouts
Sam De Koning 4 hitouts

Not much we can do. Have to take the pain as Sam improves.

 

[Strange Cat]

You wouldn’t even think we are in front with the way the commentators and halftime replays are going

 

[Finknottle]

Clark has barely touched it. He is very lucky to get a game in this team.

 

[D BRIDGE]

I'm happy Danger is running good enough to be calling for handball... but I don't love Danger kicking it inside 50.

 

[Jeff76]

On a side note Lumpfreys will be an absolute gun, what a find.

We just need agro sdk to come out after half time again, in his shell a bit again.

 

[Hamingja]

Tighten up the absurd turnovers and moronic skill errors and we walk away with this game.

Have they even scored a goal aside from off turnovers? It is frustrating to watch, they just all run forward of the ball Richmond style.

 

[OddYears]

Really liked that quarter from Neale. Lots of off the ball work. Brought it down for crummers and a nice contested mark.

 

[catters05]

Well come good

I agree if we clean up the errors, we have gifted them some.

Still think SDK has done some nice things but as you said if he’s going to develop in the role you have to accept some things aren’t going to go his way

His a better defender... im sorry his only a back up ruck at best

 

[The Casey Cat]

Well come good

Hope you're right but far too often the last two years we assume surely we improve enough to get this done. And we don't.

 

[Grimoz]

Fair to say the team that starts kicking straight will win this….at this stage i cant see is winning it, too much on pies terms

 

[Jumping Jack]

How’s the fumbling - seriously. Pies handling the footy way cleaner.

Pies right in this thanks to our sloppy ball use.

It's like watching the Little League. They all swarm around the ball except for one or two who just sit forward waiting for the ball to come out.

 

[Strange Cat]

He wouldn’t be too much down back tonight imo

 

[OddYears]

Pies backs are holding our forward every entry. They’re all over them. So many high chops but no whistles

Showed plenty so far tonight.

Would love for him to take a couple of nice marks and goal from them in the 2nd half.
