Treloar is a jet. Ed beat him today but Treloar will get better.
I thought he was pretty good, quick and clean with it. Just only runs one way, that's all. But he ain't Robinson Crusoe there - geez those pies mids love to take off at just a hint of a teammate winning the pill.... Great to beat the front running fks
It's only a little thing but have you noticed how we've taken on the Hawthorn habit of cribbing half a step over the mark but pointing in an exaggerated manner to the notional spot to fool the umps. Go Bolts! Go!
Love this!! It always used to p me off to see the Hawks do it, and our guys would be "is this ok? How about I take 2 steps back, 3 maybe?". As you said "little things" but they all add up
Whadaya know - a holding the ball and a 50.... Starting to even it up once the horse has well and truly bolted... Make that stats sheet look a bit more palatable
It's simple. The hawks are flooding the area in front of us. Doing the "West Coast Web" which is the new "Clarkos Cluster". We either kick to a 50-50 at best, a 3-1 at worst, or try and run through them british bulldogs style and hope for the best. OR We keep possession. The only way to do that is to go sideways/backwards which if done right and quick enough, allows you to attack down the other side of the ground.
Yeah, and they are pretty f'n good at it. When they show that down the ground footage from behind the goals, all you see are Hawks jumpers swarming in the 50ms in front of the ball carrier. Nowhere to go - even freo and swans found it hard... We ain't freo or Syd
A fully fit Gibbs, Thomas, carrots, walker, graham and yarran (assuming he's not fit) would help the mid field. But it still doesn't help up forward - what the f do we do to fix that. Hendo is doing stuff all, but if he goes, we will have less than nothing up there
We are so inexperienced but FMD how the screw do they get 21-9 free kicks? Seriously?! No I am being quite serious - the CFC needs to stand up ffs and ask for at least a level playing field.
Not to mention; - the tunnelling in the marking contest - the 6 meter kicks that are paid marks - the cribbing the mark - the non-holding the balls - the sniping off the ball
That dont get paid against hawthorn. They play unsociable football, yet that's the free count?
Ohhhh Cyril, what a tackle.... Only ripped part of his head off... This is a joke. We know they are a super team, but do they really need the extra 3 on the field??
That umpire will be in the 2s next week - can't give a free against Gibson like that! Almost as bad as giving one against hodge. Made up for it with 2 in a row to hawthorn, straight after...,
Good to see Juddy's name is still on the pick list. Even on 1 leg, and formally retired, I still have him ahead of Boekhurst. I think they had the same number of kicks on Saturday
