Game Day Round 11: Gold Coast v Essendon, Wed 12th August, 7.10pm AEST, Metricon Stadium

Snelling was further away from the suns player than the mark paid after the rankin pass inside 50 in the 1st quarter

But how amazing was that pass!!!

How did Dew keep a straight face saying we are dangerous

 

[half time raffle]

Over coached and not playing with any sort of instinct.

He wasn't close - its the arbitrary application of rules that makes this even worse than it would otherwise be.

AFL hardly worth watching. Such a compromised game now

 

[Albertross]

Imagine if we had all their handouts though

We'd still **** it up though.

 

[Bjchan13]

We could be in front with a little composure. We dont know when to stop and we dont know when to go. Its an absolute trainwreck watching us move the football.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

I’m not even mad

Same, haven't been this serene apathetic watching a game in a while.

McKenna’s kick to Stewart.
Jesus, wasted in the backline.

 

[Arctic fox]

Lot of unfit players. And what was that smile from Worsfold for?

 

[eth-dog]

Like bemoaning "dumb play" from Snelling, when he was well over 10 metres away?

There’s this stupid thinking around the rule that’s process based rather than outcome. The purpose is to stop players going in and impeding. So why not just pay 50s post facto if players actually impede

 

[Call Me Cake]

How come I never see Truck addressing the group? It's always assistant coaches speaking to the boys like it's the storytime nap scene in Kindergarten Cop

Need Rutten to get a little fired up and give the boys a spray ffs

If only I could like this more than once.

 

['51 Bewick]

Handouts got nothing to do with culture and desire, we lack both!

Bollocks!

 

[rumply]

We’d be half cut by quarter time though

So not all bad then

 

[sameolds33]

Lewis saying Guelfi "paid the ultimate price" for separation on Rankine. ahahahah

 

[WindyHillZephyr]

Watching James Kelly coaching Guelfi at half time. Oh how I wish he could impart 1/4 of his footy brain.

 

[Albertross]

Cause he knows he's almost done with this shit.

Social distancing?

 

[Jobe Watson]

What excuses this week? Injuries? Umpires? "It's only pre-season"?

Another wasted year for the mighty Dons.

 

[Pandas Dons]

Not sure who in this team apart from Ridley, Saad and Tippa i feel comfortable with ball in hand. Everyone else i do not believe can hit a target 20m away without any pressure. Francis - used to be a beautiful kick, now, he looks so rushed.

 

[Hitch Hiker]

Why oh why is tippa still flying for marks in the 50? Not only is he getting in the way of the talls, we are losing a crumbing player having a shot or putting pressure on if it falls to the opposition instead of them walking it out.

We are so frustrating.

 

[nylexbandit]

Our issues all stem from the forward line. Even with our lack at targets it’s appalling how little we lock the ball in once it hits the ground. You watch a number of our guys and they crumb to the side of packs or 1 m from the drop, where they’re rarely going to get it

 

[CBombers17]

Realistically where does our midfield ranj in the AFL. Who are we better than?
