Game Day Round 13....North vs Eagles (Go West, young man)

[FootySmartSimpson]

Most of the players cracking in.

LDU been pretty great.

Jy playing like did in ‘22.

Powell and George supporting well.

Sheeze doing lots of really important, little things.

Scott having a great game on the wing running back to support the backs.

McDonald been ok.

Corr has been good.

Fisher providing lots of drive.

Zurhaar has been working hard.

Sh*t regarding Dawson.

Chom has been quieter.

Ford has done a couple of nice things.

Stephenson has been ok.

Xerri has drawn just about even with Williams.

For once it seems our midfield is batting deep. They're all playing well and getting involved. Normally one or two go missing.

Sheez, Powell, LDU, Simpkin, & Wardlaw have all been good. Fisher has been great rebounding out of the backline. Larkey working his bollocks off to create an option forward of the ball. Xerri is frustrating, but geez he cracks in.

So can I, we will win

I hope you’re right
It’ll make my day
I’ll celebrate for weeks
As I guess you may!!

Don't get this at all. It's been a tight, entertaining contest. No wonder the AFL keep ****ing up the game, apparently people would prefer a penalty shoot out each weekend.

Yep 100%. Would rather win in a grind than lose in a shootout, finally kicking 100pts, at the moment.

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

What is up with the non-calls for head-high contact?

Xerri has drawn just about even with Williams.

Well ahead of Williams

 

[JGreezy]

Come on boys, don't let up!!!

 

[The Talent Scout]

So here we are again, the third quarters have really slaughtered us this year, if we can keep playing well, the last quarter could get very interesting, C'MON ROOS!!!!!

 

[The acurate one]

Anyone not enjoying this is nuts.

Powell - is just coming of age in front of us.
McDonald- strange to say, but seems calm and calculated.
Our young midfield - giving them a bath
Zurhaar - typically looking dangerous, not that a fair few of our posters see that or understand that.
Simpkin - so happy to see one of our very best back. Not that a fair few of our posters see that or understand that.
Methodical - for the first time in along time we look like we are pacing ourselves and making a lot of correct decisions.


And we're ****ing winning and we should be.

 

[ferball]

Ford having a decent amount of influence tbh.

Yes. He's a very good player when he is on. Multiple tackles so far. He has kept the ball in our forward 50 multiple times thru pressure/tackling. Unselfish team orientated play to get

 

[TheKanga]

So bloody nervous!!

I honestly think this is different

 

[RossHenshaw]

Let’s hope we had a chat about red time goals & 3rd qtr lapses !

 

[JGreezy]

I thought Simpkin set the tone off the opening bounce. Looking for him to do the same in the 3rd so that we don't come out slack.

I hope you’re right

[OG Real]

i'm hoping we are fresh off the bye and the eagles are cooked waiting for the bye, please run this out boys

Let’s hope we had a chat about red time goals & 3rd qtr lapses !

And on song you arrive

[kool kangas]

Having Kallan Dawson back has helped our backine look more settled....

 

[TheKanga]

49 to 29 tackles **** yeah

 

[Devington]

?

Don't get this at all. It's been a tight, entertaining contest. No wonder the AFL keep ****ing up the game, apparently people would prefer a penalty shoot out each weekend.

First quarter where we had 1 scoring shot to their 5 was as painful as anything (but offset by the midfield dominance and aggression).

Second quarter was ****ing grouse.

Good from you TAO.
Really happy with both captains games today, been a long time since we’ve seen that. Long may it continue!

Cmon Roo Boys

 

[ferball]

Our midfield is killing them - 28-10 clearances. We should be a lot further up.

We need another good forward.
