GAME DAY - Tiges v Dogs

Dumb team selections. Dumb players continually rewarded with games. Perfect game for pressure player like MRJ.
Ross would also have been handy.
We are nowhere near top 4 and will struggle to make the eight. 7th to 14th is where we are at

Happened
Yep. Players do exactly that all the time. First one I’ve ever seen penalised.
Happened right in front of me. The umpire was directly behind Graham so Graham has no idea where the umpire was pointing to. Horrible call.

Flush the *smile*.

About time we regenerate, properly. I thought we'd take some time to gel with so many injured and new faces, but there's no cohesion or system.

I don't think we've got the right plan for the cattle.

Atrocious umpiring is one thing
But a midfeild thats full of players who cannitt tackle and whos disposal is worse....we are *smile*

Overusing the footy. But we are terrible at contests.

With Ryan we are a man down up forward.

Juddy getting plenty of it but butchering it.

Cumbo can't get near it.

Reckon I'm always more comfortable with MRJ up forward. His pressure creates goals. We don't have that today

Nank is the ultimate dilemma. Great around the ground and pressure acts but a liability in the ruck. We just can’t get first use from a ruck contest.
Yeh I don’t understand why they don’t chuck Ryan in the centre bounces as he is pushed off the ball around the ground.

Forget about the umpires. Heartless effort at the moment.

Winning hit outs 17-6 yet flogged in getting the ball away from stoppage. Never been out thing but the stand rule has changed the game and we can’t rely on turning it over to get possession

MMM trying hang Lynch already because he poleaxed him in the marking contest.
 
Certainly doesn't help when the umpires hand them 2 goals.
Stop whinging about the *smile* umpires. You play *smile*, you're second to the ball, you don't tackle properly, you get frees against. I don't think we get harshly done by for the frees against us, the issue might be the other way......but we're playing *smile* and need to own it.
