Game Day Round 5 v Essendon @Adelaide Oval

[Tulip]

bad across the ground but Petty and Tomlinson have been especially putrid. The have negative 1 million confidence

Also, someone tell Grundy he’s a tall not a small

Rivers, Bowey, Brayshaw, McVee and May all just as bad today. Tommo has been abysmal, but this has been a team effort. May in particular has embarrassed himself with some of his efforts at intercept marking.

 

[netslave]

Oliver has been good, been held the whole time and done well with that. There's been a lot worse out there - see Petracca for a start.

can't argue with the holding part.

 

[stEdy]

McVee has been good

 

[Crimson Azure]

Think I gave up walking the dog in the rain for this.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Well just got back from doubling up and playing both seniors and reserves, belted in both of them. Melbourne give me somthing today for ****s sake.

Listening on the radio our midfield sounds ****ing lazy

 

[Jamurp]

TMac has completely lost somewhere in a parallel universe.

 

[Fork n Hell]

at least we can bring in another mid now for a forward who hasn't been near it, but the only thing that's gonna turn this one around is a serious change in attitude and effort.

[RandB]

Bombers have cleaner hands, better numbers and are in front to the ball. They are throwing caution to the wind and it's paying off.

We need to wake the **** up.

playing against an AFL-level backline (barely) and has two possessions.

Funny that

 

[Lampers]

Back in 2021 multiple times games looked like this, then after half time Melbourne would come out and just boss the rest of the game.

Didn’t seem to happen in 2022 though.

 

[LarryDavidNeitz]

This is putrid. The backline is playing as if Jake Lever

Tom McDonald playing against an AFL-level backline (barely) and has two possessions.

Funny that

When I canned him in rd 1 for getting nowhere near it I was told he was good for structure

 

[Daemon]

Spargo have himself concussion, how stupid

 

[netslave]

lol umpiring

 

[mrmonkey]

Did Lyon just say Brayshaw is an elite ball user

 

[Clink]

Clowns!

 

[Daemon]

Grundy you clown

 

[Scythe94]

******* me sideways

 

[netslave]

maybe the rain can change our fortunes?

 

[Lampers]

Did Lyon just say Brayshaw is an elite ball user

A common misconception.

Brayshaw does look nice as he kicks a beautiful looking ball straight behind his teammate.

 

[Dory_77]

maybe the rain can change our fortunes?

Apparently not.

 

[schmuttt]

First miss rhey generate a shot on goal

 

[Scythe94]

Oh look, another free player inside 50. Get ****ed you lazy pricks

 

[Daemon]

It's just not our day. Playing like crap and then lucky kicks and bounces going their way.
