Re: Round 14 - Blues v Western Bulldogs (Aftermatch Aftermath) - DJC - 07-05-2015
Accidentally quoted myself :-[
As there doesn't seem to be a delete function, I'd better think of something to contribute . . .
Kreuzer seemed to run out of puff in the second half. An interrupted pre-season and missing the first half of the season wouldn't have done much for his match fitness.
It's arguable as to whether he would benefit more from a spell or another hard game. Even with his poor second half, he still made a contribution and I wouldn't want to go into the Richmond game without him, whether or not Maric is suspended.

He has certainly been one of the players to benefit from the change of coach. I suppose that being closer to the players enabled Barker to see what Malthouse was missing.
Anyway, let's hope Graham continues to improve and becomes an integral part of a top class midfield.
I thought Barker was just one of micks spuds ?
????????????????????

I think many of us thought that NB. Isn't there a thread about what spuds our assistants are?
My point was about the fact that assistant coaches are closer to the players than the senior coach and that may have enabled Barker to see something in Graham that Malthouse missed.

Just a pi55weak lazy game from Yarran. If he's not carrying an injury he should be gone.
I think you're a little harsh on Murph, thought he won some pretty tough ball in there last night. Disposal is slightly overrated. Gimme the ball in the hands of Nicky G any day of the week and twice on Sundays.
TBF I thought Kreuzer was slower.
Simpsons turnover when he was coming out of defence was a disgrace. Curnover name says it all.
Bell is an awful kick of the footy. Great in pretty much every other area except the one that counts most.
Disagree immensely. Pretty much the only bloke capable of lacing out a pass inside 50m. Thought he was excellent.
Now, unlike Crimm 1979, that is what I call a reasoned discussion. Thanks Carrotts

I also think that Johnson's job was to limit Murphy and while he didn't shut him out of the game, he did restrict his output. Boekhurst seems to lack confidence and if he could let go of his fear of making mistakes then he could be ok, Holman looks ok and Whiley needs to play more. I think Murphy leadership has been great the past three weeks and he has set a very good standard for everybody to follow. The Wood Casboult fiasco demonstrates to me that the side hasn't been playing as a team for a while now and therefore they are not on the same page. They have been better the past few weeks but they need to trust one another and believe everybody is going to the right thing. And this is not a MM thing. I don't think they have been playing as a team for about fifteen years and four coaches weren't able to change this. They are doing it now but they need to do it into the future.
He's not injured Moon, he has other issues.

My biggest concern with Kreuzer is that he isn't getting to marking contests, I don't know whether it's fitness, confidence or just a lack of football but it has always been one of his strengths.

It was a scrappy game and it's hard to see the Bulldogs holding on to their spot in the eight.
I had Caleb Daniel as the difference, he came on and burnt us bad..had 5 scoring assists and seemed everywhere,,,agree on Stringer..thought White did a good job but the former made the most of his opportunities and doesnt miss many kicks for goal....the goal before half time was telling and steadied the Dogs.

Yes EB, Daniel looked like a seasoned veteran when he came on.
However, it may have been a different result if we had a bloke like Stringer who could be relied on to bag a couple of goals despite limited opportunities.
