It was AcresI'll happily argue the point and say Cunningham was closer to Pendles than anyone.
No Kemp, ................... no options.Kemp has to be an in.....and Id be considering McGovern for Fritsch if fit and ready and making the Melb player work a bit harder defending when we rebound. Kemp might have to play on Petracca when he goes forward and its going to be challenging finding a player for Williams to operate on...
Yes, it a nightmare to come up against them after they've torched the Handbaggers and we are on a dud roll of epic proportions!We softened them up for them.
Martin and SOS being missed as alternatives allowing Charlie in particular to be double teamed..True, but we still often have blokes open and fail to use them, but BigH better not complain about it after the dying minutes of last Friday, or maybe he was teaching them a lesson, "Don't do this!"
See Fritsch...getting dubious frees..No Kemp, ................... no options.
Agreed, I think the bigger problem for us it that the form lines are heading in the wrong directions, they are on the up and we are on the slide!See Fritsch...getting dubious frees..
If we thought Elliott got an armchair ride, wait until you see Petracca up close, if Pitto, Hewett or Kennedy even brush a forearm hair against Petracca's passing frame it'll be free kick and 50m!
After a week of the media blasting the AFL over "holding the ball" and "Incorrect disposal", I'm pegging the first fan shock of next Thursday night will be Kysaiah being awarded a free kick for poleaxing Walsh or Cripps at a stoppage causing them to drop the footy. That is generally exactly how the AFL roll!
I didn't want to name names, the vision is damning enough, and there was another.Martin and SOS being missed as alternatives allowing Charlie in particular to be double teamed..
Acres runs his arse into the ground, I get that sooner or later he needs a chop out and he might have needed one in those moments, but there are times you don't have a choice, you just have to keep going at it Robert Harvey style until you throw up your own ring!
AFL is built on the premise that it is the last person left standing/moving, that gets the spoils!
But it's not just those events that cost us, multiple times Cottrell had worked hard into open space on the fat side and we ignored him instead dropping the pill on the head of BigH or Charlie 1 out against 2 or 3! At the moment, I can't say Cottrell is more or less likely to peg a goal than Harry or Charlie, and going to Cottrell a bit more might help spread the opposition defence!
Filth did it very very well, they used the player who was on, not formulaic at all, we by comparison seem very formulaic!
I get we have Harry and Charlie, but it's making us predictable at the moment, weirdly it's TDK that seems to be giving us a bit of X-Factor, if only he could hang on to a few more of the marks he gets his hands to!
