Dreamtime 2020 Game Day

[zippadeee]

Houli .....went like a Melbourne Cup,horse resuming in a 1200

It was NEVER going to work.
No reserves games.
Straight back it in 27 degrees humid conditions.

 

[GEDS1]

Special mention to Rioli for not taking that shot that should earn him a rest horrific

 

[jokershoppe]

Gee was hard to watch, but bombers lost with almost record accuracy .

 

[zippadeee]

*smile* game with so many passengers:

Martin, Bolton and Short brilliant. Baker, Vlaustin and Grimes very good. The rest should be handing back their match payments

Stack was worse tonight then last week.
And thats pretty bad.

 

[The_Celebrant]

Essendon's accuracy warped the result somewhat.

Really? Who knew?

 

[waiting]

Can’t see us troubling WC on what we have seen the past two weeks.
Wasteful.
I50 is of real concern.
So many players down on form.
Forward line not functioning at all.
We have a lot of improvement in us but my concern is that we are not playing well.

 

[King Kong]

Nice to see Bolts get the Yiooken.

Well deserved. He and Martin won the game for us

 

[AngryAnt]

As I said I didn't think it got him high. Very happy to stand corrected if it did get him high. Most here seem to think so; I was probably wrong.

But is it really necessary to tell someone to *smile* off when they see something different to you?

It wasn't high - late definitely, but not much in it. We got lucky with that one.

 

[craig]

Don't stress . We'll be better next week.

We've been saying that every week.

But the last 2 games in particular weve not shown much to be encouraged by apart from the fact we are still alive in the season.

Barely getting over Essendons VFL side and the Suns is hardly cause for excitement.

 

[Mr T.]

Cue... the draaaiin maaan. I’m done. Exhausting. Happy with the 4pts considering the conditions.

Take a look at our inside 50 conversion ratio against the better teams vs those that know they can't beat us.

Its like chalk and cheese, those that trust their gameplan against us we generally score better against. WCE will not be running the flood against us, they will actually trust their gameplan. The Bombers know they are nowhere near our level.

 

[zippadeee]

We have not played a game in the daytime this year that I can think of.

Tigers only come out at night.
We played the swans at 4.40

 

[acampanaro]

Agreeed.

Well 4 changes at least should help.

Please drop Pickett once for all. He is worse than Tablimg. Rioli has been crap all season. Stack, Bolton are not travelling much better.

 

[MD Jazz]

Geez Pickett getting votes? And in front of Baker? That’s borderline embarrassing. He was poor. Get fair dinkum.

 

[Mr Brightside]

There’s a few lads who continue to struggle

would have to be the worst indication of the dominance in the game re scoreboard tonight

 

[graystar1]

Hard to believe we gave up 3 easy goals in the last 5 minutes.

Who is telling our players to just bomb it into the forward 50?? No wonder we kicked all those points.

Would destroy us against a good team.

 

[Ridley]

Did our duty at the football outpost. Squandered a few gold-plated opportunities. Fixable.

We've been saying that all year. Running out of time.

 

[achillesjones]

Tonight's Positives: Graham Marlion and Rioli returning to form. Shai, Dusty superb, Balta, Ivan consistent. KMac, Baker honest.
Negatives: Cholly and Stack don't look like they are up to the speed and intensity.

 

[craig]

That was absolutely horrible. We played shocking football with far too much handball.
Stack, Chol, Castagna and Aarts have to go.
wow we are really struggling

Agreed.

 

[Tenacious Tiges]

Well deserved. He and Martin won the game for us

Macintosh played well again. Never lost a contest tonight
