Game Day RND 15 – The Mighty Eagles v The Western Bulldogs

[avishka5]

Gaff is the GOAT

At not hitting a target?

 

[Biggie]

Gaffs kicking efficiency is 36% according to AFL site

And every kick looks like 0% chance of finding a target.

Cripps is probably still suffering from that injury a bit.

At not hitting a target?

Gaff has hit enough to be effective. Had a few lace-out passes early on and has been linking up the play

 

[Gizza]

Pretty sure with 20sec to go a commentator said something like "an Eagles goal looks like it won't happen, touchwood"

Little bit of barracking/bias there...

In the first quarter one of them flat out said they were all going for the Bulldogs. They're not even trying to hide it.

 

[DickDunn]

Barrass is really struggling one on one. Get the feeling he's headed for a stint in the WAFL

 

[WCEbrody]

Gaff has been good, 6 score involvements & 8 inside 50's. If he's allowed the same amount of space in the 2nd half we'll get over the line.

I agree. There is some heat around contests and he's slamming it on the boot a bit more than usual, a bit like an inside mid.

It's not like he's shanking kicks when he has time and space.

 

[Bacchus]

I've been impressed again by that rookie Petrie. Looks quite promising.

 

[Biggie]

Barrass is really struggling one on one. Get the feeling he's headed for a stint in the WAFL

Agreed.

Problem is, he destroys it in the WAFL and develops nothing.

Interesting to see what happens, because I have to admit, Eric has been better the past 3 weeks.

Not saying he is shit but he would be getting a heavy tag if he was hitting more targets than not.

That's really shithouse.

Reminds me a bit of when Ebert was watching Port games in his spare time.

To be fair, they were talking from Beveridge's perspective (as in, he'd be happy to go in 15 down)

 

[Magnum27]

Happy with that half, could be further in front , but all things considered we are in a better place than i thought they'd be.

Tbf on him, I think he was watching Jayden levrde play
Might be good mates with him.

Lets look at it a positive.

Maybe the is calamity of a pick may finally see us **** O'Brien off to the dungheap*

*still holding hope DV plays 200+ for WC

True, but they seem to always talk from *insert Victorian side we are playing* point of view.

They did exactly the same thing for 90% of the game v Melbourne last week.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Another half to go but we have been pretty good guys, they are having a dip and deserve their lead.
Over use of handball still kills us but it seems that is the plan.
Kick the first couple and we might be heading for a good win.
Stay positive

 

[Double the Fist]

WHY THE **** IS THERE ONLY 3 ****ING GAMES ON FREE TO ****ING AIR THIS WEEKEND? WHAT THE ****?
**** YOU AwFL. SRS

 

[Double the Fist]

keep it up lads.

*braces for our usual 3rd quater fadeout

 

[15yearmember]

Don't stop believin'...

 

[Crimson King]

Crucial period here. Game is on the line.
