Game Day ROUND TWO: Pies vs Crows @ MCG 1.15p.m. ACDT 26/03/22

[NTRabbit]

Highlighting how idiotic it was to select Milera and McPherson instead of Sholl and Cook last week at least

 

[triggyscrewedus]

I'd be very surprised to see the pies keep this level of pressure up the entire game..
That pressure level would put even the good teams under the pump.
If we can be just a bit cleaner we can get back in this one.

 

[NSWCROW]

I say again

That IN THE BACK aganst Himmelberg is the weakest free i've seen in 40 years of watching footy

 

[Mutineer]

O'Brien has dropped 3 marks in defence he got his hands to. If he can't bring his biggest strength to the game, we may as well play Strachan.

He's also had the edge on Grundy in the ruck....you know that premier ruck Grundy?

 

[betterthanu]

The only thing that really makes ROB AFL quality is his marking. IF hes constantly dropping them like last year and so far this year....we cannot justify playing him over Straughn

 

[moses]

How many times has Shoenberg kicked it out on the full in the past 2 weeks?

On SM-A325F using BigFooty.com mobile app

He's had a mare

 

[NTRabbit]

People sinking the boots into Fog, but for some reason not saying anything about Berg. At least Fog looks somewhat dangerous, despite kicking 2 behinds.

Everyone has given up on Himmelberg already, it essentially goes without saying. Many still had hopes for Fogarty.

 

[Crowman32]

I thought dawson and cook showed a bit of class. Probably the only two positives.

 

[MrBarry]

Fogarty has failed to dominate in the approximately 3 times we've targeted him by kicking to his opponents advantage and needs to be dealt with in the most severe way. He can join that other absolute spud Thilthorpe in being the sole cause of our forward line problems. 50 more goals for Sloane.

Hard to know if satire, well done

 

[GetInMyVanBerlo]

All of our midfielders are good players in isolation but they don't work as a mix, it's been blindingly obvious for years, and then when we use high draft picks on midfielders like Pedlar, we pigeonhole him into a forward pocket, it's mind boggling

 

[pjcrows]

We haven't improved.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

In the spirit of looking for positives I think Cook has done a couple of nice things. Would like to see him get a good run of games to see what he can do at the level.
HF: Cook - Thilthorpe - Rachele

You can tell Cook has it & needs to be fast tracked.

Should play most of the year & only be left out if going through a rough patch for a few weeks

 

[earlsta]

Game will open up in the second half, pies will tire out soon. They can’t keep this pressure up for 4 quarters.

 

[GetInMyVanBerlo]

People sinking the boots into Fog, but for some reason not saying anything about Berg. At least Fog looks somewhat dangerous, despite kicking 2 behinds.

What are you talking about? Himmelberg has got roasted the most out of everyone out there

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

He's also had the edge on Grundy in the ruck....you know that premier ruck Grundy?

You honestly think O'Brien has been playing well?

 

[Shaunbkk]

The only thing that really makes ROB AFL quality is his marking. IF hes constantly dropping them like last year and so far this year....we cannot justify playing him over Straughn

We see it the majority do but most people making decisions are corrupt and stupid or both ROB getting KIlled agaiaiaiaiain

 

[Danger Zone]

We badly need Thilthorpe to become a star. Himmelberg is hot garbage and Fog just isn't coming along like we expected. At least there are some good signs from the smaller permanent or part time forwards (Gollant, Cook, Rachele, etc).

 

[Shuestar13]

This “competition” continues to sink further lower (if that’s even possible). Up against 25 today. Hope the team can hang in there in second half. Berg out for Thilthorpe next week. Cook looks like a talent

 

[StonesThrow]

Himmelberg, Schoenberg, ROB, Murray, Keys (20 shit possessions), Sloane, Fog, Rowe all ******* shithouse. These campaigners need to pull their fingers out or fu** off back to the SANFL.
Im sick of seeing dumb ******* footballers.
Rowe misses a sitter directly in front again, Fog and Berg giving away dumb fred kicks, Sloane and Keys wasting every possession.
fu** off you stupid campaigners.

Rowe has been good (set shot aside). Keays also been good. Much better than his first half last week.

Others I agree with

 

[Footypie32]

Haven't minded Sloane's game to be fair.

 

[moses]

We look very timid when trying to pick the ball up. Not taking it cleanly and almost anticipating contact. Fog is so frustrating, he should have 3 already. Midfield is very one paced. We can't persist with Crouch, Sloane and Keys at the bounce, where is the variety?

 

[Freshj]

I've been on and off the himmelberg band Wagon but today I put a line through him. I can deal with blokes if they are least competitive. Hberg shows absolute zero want to contribute. No pressure, no desperation, no heart. Delist straight after the game. Seeya

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Game will open up in the second half, pies will tire out soon. They can’t keep this pressure up for 4 quarters.

We will only be competitive if we improve our disposal efficiency & reduce turnovers.

 

[SellarStardom]

Bring Frampton in and move Murray forward. Strawny needs to come in. Drop Himmelberg and McHenry/Rowe.

Laird is back and Pedlar will probably miss for Laird. But I'm not liking Sloane, Jones or Shoenberg.

Would prefer Pedlar up in the guts.

 

[footy4ever]

We haven't improved.

True.


And aren’t the umpires playing on that!
