I never saw them matched up at all. Goddard played down back for the majority, Duigan was with him.
Unless you were watching Goddard for 100% of the time you can't for sure know who was playing on him for the entire game.

Gibba never had Goddard, he played his usual run with role on Jobe. Duigan had Goddard for the entire game, even followed him to the bench.
Gibbs played on Goddard for some time.

I think Malthouse/match committee/whoever made the call to bring in Joseph stuffed up. How many run with players did we have last night? This was magnified when McLean went down. We were breaking down along the wings because we had no option to kick to because our guys didn't want to leave who they were tagging.
TBH I don't know WTF MM was thinking bringing in Duigan and Joseph. They're not the future and they won't be here next year. Duigan cracked in hard at times and Joseph wasn't awful however, this is not in line with developing the side.
I don't mind either player but they are defensive shut down players. Walker and Kreuzer are offensive, when I saw the late changes I knew if the bombers came to play we were in trouble.

OMG just saw the Bummers scenes after the game we provided them with a proud great moment in their history last night. We gave them some hope and joy in possibly the worst week in the history of their club.
When they kicked the last goal, I heard someone yell 10 seconds and I evacuated.

Our game plan is to ignore fantastic attacking options through the middle and kick to one on ones down the boundary. The amount of time we have a great option and ignore it to go to a one on one is so frustrating aint no way that game plan is going to get you a premiership nowadays.
One problem I noticed is certain senior players ignore better options because of who the player is and this has been going on for years now. Scotland had Duigan on his own the centre square, ignored him and kicked it long and high to Marc Murphy who had to out mark his opponent. Murph has never taken a contested mark in his life.

I was at the game, our boys tried so I don't get the lack of effort comments. We're just not very good.
Nup - that's a cop-out mbb. Our blokes do not work hard enough for long enough, they pick 'n choose when they wanna crack in. Who leads? Who gut runs? Who works hard to be an option downfield? Where are our blokes around the stoppages? Where are our loose blokes on the counter-attack? Don't make easy excuses for them mbb, they don't deserve it.
Not sure how saying we're not very good is making an excuse?
