All ready for Match Day. I wonder what our final line-up will be?
Just hope that the inclusions don't come with recriminations down the track, playing unfit players etc
Posted in the pre game. Bryne out with a corkie and gorringe in
Fantastic forward pressure. Gorringe goal
What is wrong with Murphy?
? Ankle
Looks like Danger came down on Murphys ankle LP
Always liked Stanley , looking did today u fortunately
3 down at present with injury
Weitering overextended his knee. Back out there now.
Murphy ankle....missed most of that quarter, still in the room. You'd have to think he is done for that day.
Sumner (or was it lamb?) has supposedly done his hamstring too.
3/4s to go. 2 small players short.
Q1. Good effort, great clearance work and forward pressure, accurate set shots = solid quarter. Plenty to go though and lots to "work on"
Go blues
Did the same thing to Murphy on the same ground and buried his shoulder.
Apparantly Sumner back out there now.
That should have been bread & butter for Gibbs , might be a costly miss
What do you expect from a Scott coached team?
If you beat them to the ball they beat you in the head!
Casboult fell hard ouch
Murphy running in the rooms
Great endeavour , today, not letting players get clear
Kerridge missing atm, hope that will be a plus when he gets up and going.
Awesome contested team footy & GOAL great start from Walker
Murphy done for the day I think
Murph cooked
Sumner too...foot again
Bit of feeling in this today
Blues showing plenty of heart today.
Will have to show plenty of endurance too.
2 down for the rest of the game. A lot of blokes being underdone too.
Will need a fair lead heading into the last if we are to hold on me thinks.
Casboult big mark beautiful goal.
Pretyy sure Geelong are thest last quarter team.
Everitt presenting well today I feel, creating good options for us
And dre converts
Gibbs certainly has the fire today, with Murph gone gonna need it .
For a big bloke...Gorringe is as timid as they come >:(
Half a game left with 2 down....
This'll take something special
Loving what Army is bring in to the game today , great goal
Good honest effort today considering the early casualties.
50m helps our fight.
Go Gibbs - goal
Forward pressure is getting to the cats , great half from the boys to date. Two men down , showing spirit & a will to work for each other
Spot on about the forward pressure... Cats probably have enough to blow us away in the 2nd half, but they look a little disinterested at the moment.
Will be a challenging second half with 2 little blokes down.
But that half showed the "team play" Bolts is crafting. I love it.
Very satisfied blue bagger here ;D
He hasn't played enough yet to realise being nice only gets you victimised, especially by Scott coached teams!
I think all players have to suffer a little before they start to push back, we are seeing that this year in Gibbs, Kreuzer, Casboult and a few others.
I think Bolton has them understanding success in this game isn't about getting a fair run at it! ;)
Will a 20pt half time lead be enough?
I say YES, IF and it's a big IF, we can sustain that pressure.
Pressure is hot....
Hope we can hold on with 2 men down. Will be tough.
Absolutely loving the pressure and chase - come on blues!
Gibbs seems to be everywhere.
Loving the boos that Hendos getting every time he touches it >:D
Short memory.
We had a bloke called Robbie Warnock who wouldn't hurt a fly.....or couldn't.
Little from Kerridge, Thomas and Cripps which is fine as long as they crank it up in the second half. Weitering still looks out of sorts but Krooze and the Bolt are giving enough to justify their selections.
Can't see us winning playing two short but stranger things have happened.
Win or lose it's been a terrific effort so far, Bolton has transformed this footy club.
Walker sooooooooo much better this week, proving a real handful for them, we need a lift from Daisy.
great effort so far, looks like the crowd are getting into it. really pleased we are taking it up to this mob.
We'll probably run out of legs but am so so impressed with the pressure we are applying and our structures.
So glad the MC has more faith in Waker and Everitt than some supporters :)
Kreuzer's chase on Guthrie is my highlight so far!
I disagree re Cripps - he's popping up a fair bit.
Interesting how many non decisions we're copping from the umps - frustrating to watch players kept Out of contest continuously and it not being called... Hope Our luck turns around in that regard!
Number 4 gets a beating a times too and is not traveling too badly.....
If they give effort, they can stay. Walker is playing his best game for the year.
Everitt, while timid, is not a passenger. Still could lift a notch or 2 as we know he is capable.
Yep I agree about Cripps, his work at stoppages seems to be a big reason we are smashing them in clearances. But the Cats better players are very quiet.
Interesting stats for Rowe...
0 marks
0 disposals
0 tackles
0 everthing!
Only column that doesn't have a 0 in it is 1%ers. He has 8! Next closest on the ground is only 3.
Speaking of players who gets more than their fair share of criticism...
ARMY!
Kicks his 3rd.
It's Army Day
That was a soft free against Simo?
50m helps us
Couldn't care less about Warnock...he isn't on our list anymore ;)
Real feeling of team spirit out there today. Great to see, if this is part of the new blue I am all for it, really making some of the efforts of past years look ordinary
Great goal Everitt
Good to see the blue boys holding up better than this site!
Yes. We've won! You beauty! And I didn't see or hear a single second of it!
It's official. THE BLUES ARE SPECIAL ^-^
I wondered what had happen to the site?
