Game Day Round 4 - North Melbourne v Brisbane Lions

[jackess]

Swap Martin with Merrett?

 

[JasRulz63]

....and we got thrashed by the bulldogs...look how well they're going!

Other way to look at that match is that we just lost to Adelaide

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Yeah more like his 2012 form. Unfortunately Rich and Redden have been horrible.

I have liked Mayes, Docherty and Paparone. Harwood doing a good job defensively as well. Some good ins over the past couple of weeks

Agree with all of that except Harwood - has been a very poor defensive game by him. Will need to lift or else straight back to the NEAFL.

 

[Paulborracho]

Golby has had a shocker.

Ash going off has been helpful.

 

[The Lion Price]

And our run from defence has disappeared. We have created an overlap so many times but instead choose to consistently bomb to contests.

 

[PattyKwasagun]

At the risk of getting blasted by Kezz, this is the worst I've seen Patfull play for some time. Not giving us much at all and looking quite lazy to be honest.

Plenty to like about Docherty, Paparone and Mayes. Rocky, Zorko, Golby and Leuy travelling very well too.

Rich, Redden, Moloney and Raines not playing well at all.

Big third quarter coming up.

 

[jackess]

Gee I wish we had Polks out there.

 

[acuguy]

What shits me to tears is the fact that our onball brigade can't get their hands on the footy, for too long we have been too reactive. Why the **** are we bothering trying to develop half back flankers when we don't have any ****ing onballers. If Adcock wants to skipper the team then Voss and co should play him in the position where he was best for us- on the ball. Harwood is a first in line contested footballer, give him a go, Golby for all his stuff ups at least has a red hot crack, play Rich, Redden and hang out the back Rockliff down back and give some of our goers a crack around the contest.

It pains me greatly to say this- But our club won't go forward until Brown retires, not because of Brown but because we need the rest of the team to grow up and become men- no Browny to rely or to think of as the man, they have to be the men in the team.

Positive,-Doc, Mayes and Pap look a class above the rest of the stragglers we are putting out on the field at the moment. Surely we play Karnezis for the rest of the year. Our future must play!!!

 

[whatboutbob]

Once again our mids are getting flogged. Le sigh.

Amazingly we're still only 6 goals behind. Anyone give us a chance?

Gee Mayes' kicking stands out. Give it to him more, cos Rich isn't getting anywhere near it.

 

[luthor]

We were talking up "starting well" during the week and then we dish out that crap in the first quarter

Of course we have applied ourselves much better in the second but what the hell is going on where we keep giving North a head start every time we play them?

Oh well.... at least Paps, Doc and Mayes look to be the future

Hasn't he been playing on Thomas? I think he has been doing a good job on him.

 

[PattyKwasagun]

Golby has had a shocker.

You reckon? I've got him in my best few at the moment. One or two blunders but outside of that getting plenty of it and using it pretty well. Definitely cracking in.

 

[lionroar]

I have the second season of American Horror Story all lined up in the DVD player.

If our 3rd qtr turns in Australian Horror Story, off goes fox footy and in goes AHS!

 

[jackess]

Just kicking 2 in a row would be handy

 

[lionshine]

To many players that had great 2012's have been poor this season and the trend has continued today. These players include Rich, Redden, Adcock, Patfull, Zorko, Green, Bewick, Golby. They all need to lift.

 

[Haso]

Doc and Paps both good in their debuts so far.

I agree. He hasn't shown much at all so far this year.

Did you tape all the news from America this week??

 

[Voss the boss]

Swap

Swap Martin with Merrett?

Me too.Doing. his best.

..and if they did, we will win this game and many more to come.

 

[Dom PC]

Port stole our season

He was nervous in the first qtr. Much better in the second qtr.

 

[jackess]

Need someone like Ace to lead at the ball carrier. Or Merrett.

Well played
