Review The bad, the dumb and the bad v Eagles

[rabidcrow]

Also, since when did Fogarty acquire some new wheels? Did not see those sprints coming.

Looks a little leaner and definitely improving his mobility - positive signs

Good first half albeit against a woeful opposition. Excruciating second half

Sheesh. You want to see some light at the end of the tunnel but our good football this season has been frantic, effort/intensity based stuff. Minimal class, poise or system.

Every glimmer from the likes of Soligo gets drowned out by the number of scrapper ceiling players that are also becoming regulars and filling the 22.

Will we produce better football in 2023 than what we've seen this season? Hopefully. How...? Maybe Thilthorpe takes a step forward. Berry & Soligo continue their progress. Others? Doesn't feel like there's a whole crop ready to burst to life.

I hope so, but I’m not confident. Nicks seems to choose effort over skill. Murphy and McHenry are classic examples. They both should not be in the starting 22… just not good enough.

apologists have voted above to say he had a good game!.

GOOD GAME!!!… f@&K me.. if thats a good game from Benny I’d hate to see a bad one..

what exactly was good about?.. his missed/broken tackles?, his pointless handballs?, his kicks to no one?.. oh, wait, maybe it was that time he got the ball, broke free from the contest ran towards the forward 50 and then proceeded, under no pressure at all, to miss kick the ball along the ground to absolutely no one!.

he’s not AFL standard. and his two amigo’s Rory and Matt are no better.

it hilarious some still either can’t see this or are that deluded they think if they continue to ignore it.. its all gonna magically dissapear.

Definitely wasn’t one of his better games but to suggest he isn’t AFL standard is ridiculous
Rory is also very good. They should be the grunt and we need to develop the class around them

He was named as a AA defender in 2018 but I recall Lloyd naming him in the midfield with those weekly AA list he used to do and saying what a versatile player Laird was after being an AA defender and now showing he can play in the midfield.

It is OK to go "oh that's right, he wasn't"

Good to know he has it in him.

We have seen McAdam improve out of sight with repeat efforts & hopefully now seeing the same with Fog.

We know he has the skill, so if he has the effort to find more of the ball, the rest will look after itself.

 

[CrowBloke]

I dunno, he seemed pretty filthy post game

I haven't watched Nicks' presser yet, but I will on the back of your post .

I got into this thread nearly 9 pages late. Why?
The game was so dull I fell asleep about 8 minutes into the last.

 

[CrowBloke]

I don't think anyone has mentioned this yet.

What does anybody think about Tex gifting that first goal to McAdam, although he was free and clear?
(My theory: he likes what McAdam's been doing and wanted to give him an early goal).

Knows McAdam is a confidence player? Being a good leader and team man??

Speaking of Tex, any footage of his ripper mark with 3 seconds left in the game?

I enjoyed those couple bursts very much. Would love to see him build on this

 

[SLOWNE]

Do we also have the highest shit lid ratio in the comp?

Surely St Kilda...

 

[CrowBloke]

I recommend y'all get outta here and watch the cracking game on 7 now.

 

[George Kramer]

Do you people ever enjoy anything?

[George Kramer]

I have no f***ing clue why I come to this board, even after a 5 goal win.

Eventually that West Coast side is going to have it's fortunes turn, because there's still too many experienced players there. I think they'll start winning again over the second half of the year.

Because the club asked you too

maybe he needs to lighten up, a win is a win, opposition is irrelevant. And then there's the Ukraine thing, get some perspective Nixxy.

He has no right to be

 

[1970crow]

the taste doesn't put you off?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Tex looked pretty fresh after a week off

I think it's important that we don't draw any conclusions from this

 

[1970crow]

He has no right to be

exactly, what else would he have expected. He gets what he deserves.

 

[cleanhands]

No mirrors in the Change rooms

 

[Dewy006]

How much better did Tex look after a week off, we really should be resting him more, something like play 3 or 4, sit one out, was really struggling before his forced rest.

Laird Keays Crouch, say no more

100%. And it's why we shouldn't extend him till after the season has completed. We need to find out how much footy is left in him.
