Round 1 (2022) - other games
- Thread starter TigerForce
- Start date
Maybe they’ve gotten rid of the stand rule and not bothered to tell anyone, almost like the way they tried to sneak it in in the first place.
Not sure, but about half the crowd are calling out good mark number1, well played number 8.
Melbourne look great until their pressure drops off just a fraction, then the Dogs scored quickly.
An interesting game. Centre clearances looking very important. At times the Dog's entries inside 50 are very disorganised and the ball just goes straight back out.
Have to find ways of stopping that rebound out of defence, that is going to be vital this year. Damned hard though.
Some of the dropped marks by the Dogs look like perceived pressure, they really need to work on that. Some of their little short passes are way off too.
Some interesting holding the ball decisions, the test will be if the decisions in 5 weeks resemble what is being paid tonight. A few holding frees, now that is interesting, I really hate players being held before they get the ball, should happen more often.
Crowd is disappointing, I reckon 40-50k. AFL will spin it but they must be disappointed.

They haven’t been interested in footy for 60 years so understandably don’t know the rules
It was never really going to be much more with these two teams even if it is the GF replay.
Wednesday Night seriously doesnt help either.
The AFL are taking the pisss with their fans.
Not to mention plenty have gotten used to not going and footy is less important now for many as it once was.
The top level southern stand is empty Brunton Ave end and the ponsfold stand has heaps of empty seats.
No one barracks for these 2 sides.
I reckon it looks more like 50k, theres barely anyone in Level 4.
