Review Round 2, 2024 vs Richmond - Boak’s 350th

[gbear]

We won. The crows lost at home. Finish 3rd on the ladder at worst.

WE NEED CLIPS STAT

Got within a goal of the premiers elect last week coming off a Gold Coast game and with a bench full of injured players.

If they are bottom 4 then Carlton must be 14th

I can’t argue with stupid. What a lame gotcha.

 

[Enoch Blaze]

He’s not going great. But a few are in that boat. Burton’s a bit of a liability. Can’t see him ever being the consistent player we need him to be.

Hoyney from Champion Data has a completely different analysis of Burton. They rate him highly.

 

[VineValerian]

Walked out half way through 2nd qtr. Was good decision because I missed the Tiggers run all over us for the next 10 minutes.

My son said we played a better 2nd half.
More direct. Less farting around going sideways and backwards for no resut. Opened space in the F50 and lead into it. More importantly, we honoured those leads.

Amazing what common sense footy tactics can achieve, insted of endlessly rinse and repeat a flawed and inevitably unsustainable game plan.

More amazing that our dunderklumpen coach finally worked that out - into his 12th season of tenure!
Possibly it wasn't his call in the end either??????

 

[Enoch Blaze]

Really elite footy, but why is there so much crap in and around it?

Missing SPP intensity.

Hemorrhoids

 

[jackag24]

That's how i run in my dreams

 

[Doctor Feel]

Why is he so ****ing weird!

 

[Doctor Feel]

That was certainly a Woohoo led effort.

Super fit our Ken, but you would expect this from a two times All Australian player who also won Geelong’s best and fairest and finished 3rd in the Brownlow as a defender.

 

[Enoch Blaze]

Honestly reckon we might have played 18th and 17th in round 1 and 2. Tiges looked shocking - they need to hit a hard rebuild.

Tigers were great against the blues last week. Clearly can play when they set themselves.

 

[backtozero]

It's like he's just taken his thongs off and is trying to get off the hot sand.

 

[Enoch Blaze]

Stop putting Finlayson in the ruck! We’d be better off with McEntee doing it!

I like him for a few entries a game. Really good when we are mid momentum. Chaos ball and often works.

Hoyney from Champion Data has a completely different analysis of Burton. They rate him highly.

I imagine you watched today’s game. What did you see in his performance?

 

[Enoch Blaze]

We aren’t competing this year lol

Limped over the line against a VFL team. Kicked away when they were gassed. This game style is terrible and will be promptly found out each and every time we play an actual competitor.

We will find out next week against Dees. They look good.

 

[JimmyBC]

I saw nothing that suggests any real change we never exude the synergy real premiership contenders exhibit.

Waste momentum & kick like that against contenders we'll get taken care of quite easily as usual.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Why does it look like an ai generated video

 

[Enoch Blaze]

I imagine you watched today’s game. What did you see in his performance?

He wasn’t great today, agree.

Just saying that Champion Data rate him.

He’s a bit of a whipping boy for this forum I’ve noticed.

 

[240volt]

Missing SPP intensity.

On days like this we got away with it but he’s seriously a dill for getting rubbed out in a parklands trail match.
it’s just so stupid and undisciplined.

 

[Enoch Blaze]

Williams over Jones should be automatic. Baffling that it isn’t.

Is it just me or has Williams put on some weight and his movement and physique changed a bit?

 

[PowerBaz]

That was certainly a game of football.

Any load left?

 

[Hammer#8]

Honestly Richmond are a pretty poor side now. Their bottom 10 players gave them nothing and their top 5 best players are fading stars. Once Dusty, Lynch and Co retire in a year or two they'll be in the wilderness for 5+ years.

Dare I say it I thought we had the rub of the green, things went out way with the umpiring which feels rare

Butters was BOG. A player entering his prime is sweat.
Drew was massive, Roger James

like in how he can bob up and gets his hand on it since the oppo concentrate on Rosie/Butters.

Weirdest game from Finlayson, his first half was really poor in front of goal and generally looked low on confidence. Then he comes out in the second half with the nerves out of his system and kicks some crucial goals.

Marshall sort of rose up as a forward and outclassed their defenders.

Best combination of the back 3 of BZT, Aliir and Ratogeloa to date.

Boak just ok and clearly started to slow down, but an enormous achievement.

Not the best agree. Hopefully when he comes back it’ll push everyone along. He will be completely amped.

He looks a bit more bulky than last year.
