Title: Positives tonight?
Post by: Go Richo 12 on April 11, 2014, 10:10:37 PM
 Lloyd? Arguably our best player, best ruck and best defender missing. Arnot?

It's not a close game, which is good for the old heart.

We can start a 'who do we draft with pick 1' thread.

this could sound like a joke but Melbourne could infact get the first 3 picks in the national draft

1) If they finish last they get pick 1
2) They could then ask the AFL for a priority pick for bad performance Pick 2
3) If Frawley leaves they would be entitled to a first round pick after there first pick - Pick 3.

And then they would fly right past us in the rebuild stakes.

I wonder if our coach will talk up the 7 goal last qtr as a positive? Pies had clearly put the cue in the rack - as Mark Ricciuto just said anyone who takes that as a positive has no idea about footy.

When the game was up for grabs they kicked goals and we kicked points....as usual !  :banghead
 Forward line didn't function again. Also way too many cute handballs. Was pulling my hair out. Kick the bloody thing when it's so wet !! Geez.

Positives were clearly Lloyd. ( glad I whacked him into my supercoach team this week  ;D )
Astbury did a good job on Cloke and Arnot was good when he came on. Dusty wasn't too bad either. Thomas and Morris tried hard all nite.

Must win two of our next three , starting next week.

For someone who is meant to be our next captain and fearless he sure likes to kick off the deck instead of putting his head over it.

???? Vlastuin caused alot of damage against us tonight & was sloppy

He was one of the main offenders with the use of handball. Can't believe Dimma didn't instruct us to get it on the boot. So many handball chains ended in a turnover and goal....as you would expect in those conditions.

Great first up game by Lloyd but the start of this season has been embarrassing and we continue to show the football world how pathetic we really are.  :banghead

Lloyd, Astbury and Dusty.
After that Arnott and possibly Floss.
The rest rubbish.

I hope the media put some heat on Grigg, Newman, Houli, Vickery, Grimes, Chaplin and Edwards and ask...why the hell are they getting regular games :banghead

Exactly no one cares about seagulls scavenging for floppy chips doused in tomato sauce aka Grigg, Titch, Newman. But wait they kicked a goal tonight and a kid like Gordo or Arnott will make way for these aforementioned guys to keep flapping their wings.

Lloyd
Astbury

Were the only positives

As for Vlastuin, shouldn't have played was clearly not right, was concussed last week, still suffering from the after effects it would appear. Another stupid decision by our medicos ????

Lots of negatives by the usual suspects
Title: Re: Positives tonight?
Post by: MintOnLamb on April 12, 2014, 05:52:34 AM
Biggest positive is that we can no longer delude ourselves that we are in the right track. Morrie, thommo, houli arnott and lloyd and dusty, were good, f m i am over it, so that is another +
Title: Re: Positives tonight?
Post by: Jackstar is back!!! on April 12, 2014, 06:53:44 AM

That the supporters would realise that we clearly not good

Time for yet another 5 year plan

Something is wrong

Post by: Owl on April 12, 2014, 09:31:56 AM
Lloyd is good, Arseberry made donkey look like an ass which is good and Arnot came out and showed some mongrel did some good things.
Umpiring was poo and inconsistent as usual, pay one thing to one side then ignore it for the other...wtf...oh wait positives...I didn't maim anyone, which is a positive ..for them.
Title: Re: Positives tonight?

Watching it live and punishing myself watching the replay, Conca apart from one poor handball played hard tough footy. He was at least showing the way in regards to throwing himself into every contest he could get too.

Agree with this, watched the replay I undersold him, was going hard at it - just that one shocker of a handball which cost us a goal

only if they use those picks well. also i reckon they would go hard for a player from another club with one of those picks.

Claw has bit it on the head in that they have to use the picks well, I have as much faith in the Dees drafting as in WAT actually making sense
