Review Round 24, 2023 vs Richmond

[240volt]

Well I hope you're right, but we'll have to play a helluva lot better than that, and goal kicking is a major concern.

You could say the same about Brisbane, but yeah in finals you have to take your chances when it’s rolling your way.

Still can not for the life of me understand how Evans is picked AFTER McEntee.

Evans is no elite small forward, but he's clever, he's hard, he gets into the right spots and executes by hitting the scoreboard. He's the type of role player you have that pops up for a couple years in a good side and plays some games before being improved on. Right now he should certainly be playing before McEntee.

He is our Josh Mahoney imo

Shithouse percentage cost us a home prelim, not that we play any different

I keep reading garbage like this all over social media, for a start not winning enough game ultimately cost us second spot not percentage, even so I'd rather us play away than at home anyway, night games in Adelaide do not favour us in the slightest.

I stick up for Hayes alot but even I can't excuse that game. Embarrassing

Evans is a better player than McEntee.

Williams is better than Jones

Thats right, you don't understand.

And its DBJ that should be out of the team before Evans. But it won't happen.

Luna’s review of the game:

“Well ** me with a chicken drumstick, that’s two hours of my life I’ll never get back. Houston and Butters go all right though. So does Dustin Martin. Mind you Richmond looked like they had an interest in winning the game, as opposed to an interest in doing just enough to win the game. Allir’s 1:1 mismatches are a bit of a shot across the snout for finals. Good to see a few of the lads taking responsibility for shots instead of looking for cheap hand offs. Speaking of goals, yes it was, poor decision, surprising no one. Also, we’ve got two bloody useful Sams at opposite ends of the intensity scale, fine tuning that will make a big difference . ** it, I’m off to the SCG to watch the next debacle.”

Ugly win, did what we had to.

got out without any injuries

now to take down brissy, can’t wait.

 

[Harlott]

Jones will be fine. Did a couple of average things but also some good things. Like everyone else today.

Had a mare Though.

should be a lock for next week

so should Williams. Came on and just does the right things.

 

[Fizzler]

Hope Ken does the right thing and gives Butters enough votes to be safe this week. Didn’t get to watch the game so if I do that I’ll report back with my thoughts. Good to see us not on the receiving end of a late game blitz though.

Despite my assumed persona, I've never been anti Eleni. Because most umpires are little pindicks any rate, having a female umpire in theory shouldn't be a problem. But FMD, she has zero feel and understanding for the game. The amount of times I've noticed the non adjudicating umpire make the decision that she should be making is unprecedented.
I assume most male umps played the game then realised they were Weiners and took up umpiring, whether or not Eleni had that, i do not know. But as I said she just doesnt have it.

AVALANCHE

 

[Capital Power]

this club isnt going anywhere until donuts and koch is gone, are the happy clappers really content with this or dont they even know what a real premiership team looks like. Its like a premier league team who exist to escape relegation and all the happy clappers cheer it on every week through thick and thin like they have achieved their calling in life. Its sad really

Guilty as charged.

Regards, this Everton supporter

Players weren't interested. Have other things on the mind.

I thought it was a good hit out considering this.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

Just saw both Nankervis & Soldo getting loaded into the back of a paddy wagon after being charged with the rape & murder of Sam Hayes.

You would think that insipid display will be his last in a Port jumper.

 

[growly]

Once Brissy won yesterday, the attitude probably changed for your boys a bit.
If they had lost I think your intensity would have been alot better and you would have won by 80.
You will make a prelim if not by beating Brissy certainly by smacking either saints or swans in the semi.
Once there it's coll or melb. Being underdogs suits you so you never know, good luck

I don’t know why people think we’d be a better chance playing at Adelaide oval

Man or woman she is a shit umpire and always has been, as you say has no feel for the game.. and should be umpiring sanfl..end the experiment with her.. can’t umpire the basics and continually falls for bloke flipping their arms around. Hopefully we can just get a decent 4 against Brisbane. Cause I can’t remember the last time we had a fair go..

What does McEntee do better, offensively or defensively, than DBJ?

DBJ more goals, more goal assists, more disposals, more contested disposals, higher disposal efficiency, more marks, more tackles, and more pressure acts per game, and that's despite being subbed on or off twice this year and despite spending the first three games of the year in defence. No superstar himself but better than McEntee at just about everything.

Are you McEntee's brother or something?

 

[Buget]

Does the SANFL have a bye before finals? And what are the rules for the AFL players?

Can Mackenzie/Lycett play next week in the SABFL and week 1 of the finals? (Also what do the rules mean for the Adelaide AFL players?)

I don’t.
Away finals are better for us,

A truly awful umpire.
