Re: Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 8: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs - Lods - 05-10-2021 (05-10-2021, 10:41 PM)Gointocarlton link Wrote:Funny you say that, I thought the same thing at the Brisbane game. They warmed up right in front of us at the start and after half time and I commented to the Mrs how thick in quad and butt area they looked compared to our blokes. Dunno if it was the white shorts but they looked like bulls. As you say though, 4 qtrs is the key. A win on Sunday could have catapulted our season, instead... We have a few big guys in key positions but a lot of our mid-fielders and flankers are lightly framed. It's the type of player we recruited, and many have a body type that won't bulk up. Is the emphasis in our training more about speed and endurance, rather than strength and power. Sure there is obviously a balance there, but the physicality some sides bring against us seems to be a factor in many of those runs and defeats. We were pretty much 'monstered' in that last quarter on the weekend.

Everyone has said we played well for three quarters but for all that were only in front by a couple of goals at 3/4 time. Its the classic struggling team vs better team scenario you see often and in in our glory days we were the ones who ran away with those games and over powered teams. We looked schooboyish, lacking in fitness in the last quarter and our leadership isn't good enough. The Bont goal where no one stood the mark was a sign we had switched off, given up and were waiting for the other bloke to do the work. Re: Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 8: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs - LoveNavy - 05-11-2021 "dropped off " "given up" "stopped" "waiting for the other bloke" "switched off" "sleeping" This happens for a quarter of footy far too often. Develop the skill to remain motivated and focused for 4q and we'll be "where we want to be" I expect several mental and physical factors are contributing. Those charged with the task of winning have work ahead. Hopefully they're on to it ? Re: Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 8: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs - capcom - 05-11-2021 The WBs had so many unattended players in the last quarter and a half, it was staggering. We were insipid and couldn't even do the basics. The defence were more than OK but wtf is that worth when the WB drive forward had more bloody avenues than a Melways. That is inexcusable coaching and an indictment in recruiting standards.

Would it allow him to deliver messages quicker to the players in situations like Sunday? Beveridge was on the bench and very animated during the game. Thought this was very unusual at the time. Is he normally down on the bench coaching from there? Though it was a bit of a panic move to come down to the bench.

Saad first pushed Lachie McNeil in the back and then caught Lachie Hunter high as the Dogs’ ballwinner swivelled and leant in with his head to draw the high contact 35m from goal. Nice set shot from Hunter to slot his second major." niether of them were free kicks!!! dogs got a lot of iffy frees early, which we weathered. what we couldnt weather, was the "monstering" (as someone on here put it) at stoppages. some of it was sheer brilliance by Bont, Mccrae and Treloar, but some of it was down to our blokes being tackled before they had the footy, and blocked off the footy etc. in the Sun, the article next to this one is Bevvo complaining about Bont's deliberate out of bounds (which was a terrible call) - the article also mentions the Dogs have had the least frees against this year. they certainly seemed to get away with a bit against us. as a few on here have pointed out - we never complain about this stuff in the media. Bevvo does, and they get away with a bit more on field... coincidence?

The most expensive trainer wheels in the comp, FMD!What do you expect 113 games over 8 years at another club on a HBF He spent 77% of his 11 games in defence in 2020 We pay him $4.8 million over 6 years to be a quick outside mid because we were a slow team in 2020 and because he played one good midfield game in a preliminary in the wet A nominated it to be a screwing disaster So far I am right We are a dumb club and that’s why we have not played in a preliminary for 20 years Finished bottom 6 thirteen times over 20 years in a period of growing equalization. Now onto another matter Williams is clearly injured I live in Busselton in WA I would be happy to part with some money to be a member even though I probably could go to only one game when The Blues play in Perth. I won’t when the club won’t tell its supporters what is wrong with a guy who they have paid so much money for So screw the club Re: Post Game Analysis: AFL 2021 Rd 8: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs - madbluboy - 05-11-2021 Considering how many of our top players played crap/injured is good coaching that had us 27 points up?

It wasn't the number of touches he got is what he did that got me excited. He showed more in that game than LOB has shown his whole career. |
