Game Day Round 7, 2024: West Coast vs Gold Coast

[Quinz]

Felt like we were holding on in the first half, and now we've dropped intensity and lost our heads.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Back to the same old west coast before Harley. Given up already and no one gives a shit.

 

[bzparkes]

Is that why he hand balled straight to a stationary teammate who was basically already being tackled

his jumper was being pulled before he even took possession - play on.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Not going to blame Witherden or the defenders here.

The midfield and Williams are getting their pants pulled down as a collective. Nobody offering anything on the way out, yet matching it with very little resistance defensively.

Then Simpson subs off Chesser, who at least was working into space as an outlet to start that quarter. Bizarre coaching decision to sub him off for Sheed.

 

[InTheWings]

Is that three posters for CG?

 

[Westend]

Wtf witherden you spud

He has played well today

 

[Dark Sharks]

Lol Hough goes to a stationary Darling, who clearly doesn't want the footy, vs Mac Andrew for the easiest spoil of all time.

Garbage exit from D50 rightly ends up in us coughing up yet another shot at goal.

 

[KERRPOW]

The 5 goals directly as a result of BS/soft frees doesnt help

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Fourth quarter important. Don't let it blow right out, Suns pretty good team at home with a big midfield advantage today. Definitely showed, started to work us over properly.

Come on boys, have a rest and dig in.

 

[Cuzz09]

We'll see if we can fight it out.

Won our first 4th qtr for the year would be a mini win

Wouldn't be bagging BW, blokes tried his guts out

 

[CursoryMercenary]

I think the long losing streak will start again from here, maybe we won't see too many blowouts is our best hope.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

This is f**king embarrassing.
The Vic media gonna spend the week criticising the decision to rest Reid lol.

 

[junebug]

Well that was hard to watch after the last two weeks

 

[Smotie2]

It's no coincidence our competing edge drops with sheed and Ryan in the side.

Can't wait for gaff to come back.

 

[KERRPOW]

Reality check is being down three goals to a team that's unbeaten at home? Without Barrass or Reid?

We're going ok, game slipping now and need a change quickly, but think this is about par (if not a pass) for expectations today surely.

Yeh...isnt that what a reality check is?

 

[Cuzz09]

Gold Coast are good up there.

end of story.

was always gonna be hard.

[Lia]

Tough watch, a reality check isn't the worst thing but system breakdown + mugged by umpires makes it hard.

 

[Bacchus]

No belief in winning this game or even being competitive. Began with managing Reid.
Third quarter was absolute rubbish.

 

[kaII]

Can't believe anyone would be melting at a performance like this after the last two years.

Marked improvement makes it hard to be that upset. We're not finals contenders.

 

[Cuzz09]

Win the 4th qtr. Come on.

Bring the margin under 20

Was also held at the CBD.

Steady on, his name isn’t Rowell

 

[stallon]

Wouldn't be bagging BW, blokes tried his guts out

Witts would genuinely be the hardest ruck matchup in the comp, cant expect much from him here

 

[Quinz]

That was pretty dire. Lack of system, got hugely destroyed at the centre bounce and looked defeated. Good half but that quarter was a bug regression.

Garbage exit from D50 rightly ends up in us coughing up yet another shot at goal.

Trying to mark 2cm from your chest with vestigial T-Rex arms is a bizarre technique for a highly experienced player against a relative rookie.
