Rd 3 v North Melbourne Preview and Match Thread

[Miguel Sanchez]

If Kerr is not BOG in the second half I would drop that useless waste of space to the WAFL next week!

He's been in our best the first two weeks. Short memory?

 

[lewigie]

Including umpires?

Having WAYY too much influence on the game.

 

[Glasslove]

oooo.. never see Glass that fiesty? I like it! What happened there?

 

[WCErevival]

Glassy is absolutely furious about something.

Probably our disposal

 

[Quinz]

Mitch Brown drops a shitload of easy marks for a guy his size.

Someone needs to hit Spangher over the head with something. He might actually be able to enter a contest without giving a free kick away or turning it over.

Umpires will be work out by the end of this game the way they're going.

 

[r dub 19]

Spanger plays like his mum is just about to catch him jerking, he just doesn't know wtf he should do.

 

[Opportunity Cost]

Pav is one of the best posters on the Eagles board.

 

[icetea]

umpires are ruining the ****ing gameeee!!!

 

[Makka]

We suck. Our skills and decision making are shit and we're hardly even chasing. Guys who should be contesting or putting pressure on are just jogging around contests.

Long year ahead.

 

[mehow2g]

MClaren is a gun player for north

 

[Jimmy_the_Gent]

He's been in our best the first two weeks. Short memory?

You have to understand people's frustration though; Kerr consistently hasn't stood up for us when we most needed him.

 

[illegaleagle]

hopeless hanson, kerr the dissapearing act, stupid spannger, wistless worsforld, dopey dalziell, slippery fingers brown, brittle bones, did i miss any more

 

[weagles_fan]

Another loss coming up this team is an embarrassment to the club. Worsfold it's time to go.

 

[PRANKSTER666]

He's been in our best the first two weeks. Short memory?

He was not bad the first two weeks, today he doesn't even look interested.

Getting paid half the teams cap, needs a rocket up his a$$.

 

[mad_eagle]

Hey if we can't win a game, maybe we'll win a fight.

Yeh, at least if they have a bit of push and shove it makes it look like they actually give a shit

Why is it that we always seem to play oppostion stars back into form, and Kerr gets absolutely owned.

Umpiring has been shit, but we deserve to be down.

Is it just me, or do some of the boys actually look scared to kick the footy. Not a good sign

 

[CursoryMercenary]

I reckon i'm another half away from pulling out a SACK WORSFOLD thread. The players he has brought in namely Rosa, Schofield and Hansen have been shocking and our skills have been ****ing terrible again. I'm sick of watching this bullshit almost every week for 3 years. He better get them going and get them to pull their heads in for the 2nd half.

 

[WCErevival]

Mitch Brown drops a shitload of easy marks for a guy his size.

When I had a go about Brown last week everyone said I was nuts. I wonder what people think of him now? Bring back Lynch.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Probably our disposal

Yeah, hopefully he carries that anger into the changerooms and starts throwing donnybrooks!

umpires are ruining the ****ing gameeee!!!

We're doing a fair job of it ourselves.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Spanger plays like his mum is just about to catch him jerking

Sorry to interject here fellas but this may be the best analogy I have ever heard

 

[DrTomSwift]

The unpires aren't losing the game for us so can we complain about something else?

 

[wce_all_da_way]

hopeless hanson, kerr the dissapearing act, stupid spannger, wistless worsforld, dopey dalziell, slippery fingers brown, brittle bones, did i miss any more

Pretty much every other player.

 

[Quinz]

Kerr really does need a rocket, disappearing act is not good enough from a player like him when we need a crucial win on the road.

 

[eagleskickass]

Including umpires?

Yes the umpires are being very annoying, but nearly every time there was a contest there were 2-3 Kangas more than Eagles. They are running in numbers.

The upside to all this is a good side would have buried us by now. We are still in this, if we can just forget EVERYTHING about the season so far, come out firing, run in numbers and start hitting targets on the chest.

The big problem as far as I can see is getting that one pass to someone just outside the 50, quickly, so we have a better chance to make an effective pass into the 50.

At the moment we get the ball on the win and either cough it up around the half forward line due to bad skills OR we run a little, then bomb it in the 50 in hope that Sampi makes a return and take a high flying mark. This is the key weakness that I see at the moment. If someone can step up around half forward, take some marks, have our mids run past for the handball and make a good drill pass into the 50 we might actually start to kick some effective goals.

 

[AS211]

Gee that's embarrasing, the last resort from West Coast to go the biff.

It's time for Worsfold to pull his finger out, swing some changes, get blokes playing their natural positions.

Right now the midfield is getting run all over, thanks to a rampant Harvey.

If Selwood cant go with Harvey, he's getting a bath at the moment, swing Kerr onto him, tell him to live under his skin, Kerr's not doing anything himself, why not take Harvey out of the game with him?

For the love of god, Im a docker supporter here remember, play your kids in the position they played when you drafted them.

Masten's first quarter was very good, he was hitting targets by foot, he's a natural ball winner, put him on the ball.

Tom Swift, despite a poor turnover, has looked good when he's had the footy, put him in the middle.

Luke Shuey is a midfielders, midfielder, take him out of the forward pocket and play him on the ball, rotate him with Priddis if you have to.

Need some class? Swing Lecras in the middle for 5 minutes or so.

It's so basic.

Ebert's disposal is a lot better than last week so far.
