Game Day Round 15, 2024: West Coast vs Essendon

[Obeanie1]

English does nothing to fix our ruck issues...

He doesnt need to. And we shouldnt be getting him as a #1 ruck if we did.

He solves our 3rd tall forward and 2nd ruck problem whilst adding a very capable link player and goal kicker.

yes he does better than Bailey simple for me

Yes, brilliant idea to replace our crap ruckman with a very expensive tall midfielder

 

[Jeeves]

Is Durham (spelling?) the new Chris Judd or us our defensive spread from transition awful?

No and yes

Is that a problem that needs solving right now and for a ridiculous amount of money?

 

[amazingjoshy]

darling kicked goals and set up a few....thought he was okay

He was but 3 talls plus a resting ruck is too tall

 

[Dark Sharks]

Asolutely frustrating yes, but that's what you expect from a potato team that is 16th. Can't ask for much more than that 16 vs 4th or whatever.

Still need to be asking for more and holding players accountable after this.

Losing absolutely sucks, we have along way to go and still need to shift some deadwood. But at least they fought it out, a little more polish who knows. I wouldn't be booking GF tickets if I were Bombers fans in a hurry. Our shiteness made them look better than what they are.

He takes marks and kicks goals something Bwilliams doesn't.

 

[Lazzas]

Strange game, certainly applied good pressure most of the game, smashed in the ruck but mids did well. Forwards were the reason we lost today dreadful kicking for goal. Barrass was immense in defence.

The efficiency of the forward lines and the delivery into the forward lines was the difference.

West Coasts forward line is a work in progress.

Lots of players do that and don't cost $1 mill per year

Amateur hour

Take to the autopsy thread for the coroner’s report

Autopsy - WCE v Dons Rnd 15. Positives and Negatives.

Gutted about that run they got on in the 2nd to get out to a lead we just never pulled back. Better effort over 4 quarters. Ryan looks great as a mid, Ryan looks great anywhere. Goal kicking accuracy. That was our effort off a bye :(
