Pre-Game Pressure: AFL 2019 Rd 5: Carlton vs Western BUlldogs

[DJC]

Blues by 5 goals...not sure why some are using this game as a final verdict on our future or a sack the coach game if we lose...GC like I said on the other thread have fluked a few wins[?]
but are not a benchmark team for anything....they could fluke another win but that doesnt mean we are worse or better than last year and we need a
bigger sample size vs better rated teams to judge where we are...

Why do your posts have paragraph breaks in odd spots EB?  It detracts from the content of your posts.

I think we'll pulverise GC tomorrow and that should set us up for some more positive results.  Would I put money on us winning?  Probably not

How did the Bullies pregame turn into the G.C.  Pregame??

DJ ..Probably developed the shorthand point form/ extended dotted paragraphs through work as an elec engineer over the years, eg instructions to electrical fitters etc tended
to be short/basic in form and sometimes the technical subtlety's of wordsmithing are lost in favour of content.
Wasnt you who put 550K on Winx today to win 33K?, think I prefer our odds.

What platform are you operating on EB? I have found that the text editor on some phones can cause random line breaks.

Tagging has been yesterday’s tactic for a couple of years now.  That’s not to say that less enlightened coaches don’t employ it.  De Boer on a badly out of form Dusty is a classic example of sacrificing one player’s contribution to achieve very little.  Unless your tagger can win his own ball, it’s a tactic that will follow the drop kick into obscurity.

Mind you, bringing the drop kick back for set shots at goal might improve accuracy.

Yep, and that's exactly what Ed did when he hit his straps, he won his own ball.

Cookie, Windows 10 and the odd phone(android) post, most of my problems with spacing/line breaks are by design
not technical issues. Hopefully when I retire at years end I can produce better formatted posts, the content will still be of debatable quality of course..

We go into the game without a win. Disgraceful. That offers little hope against a team like the Dogs.

We'll win by 6 goals.

We've been $h!t out of luck of late, and we are due for some things to go our way. It will be this week and it will be glorious.

Which coach would not be pencilling in a win against us?  We are almost on a par with last year.

Dogs are beatable, they have a good midfield but their defense is very working class, Cordy, Wood and Crozier
shouldnt work against the taller McGovern, Harry and Charlie. That trio hasnt worked as a group all season but
a couple of them must be due to fire and thats where we can win the game.
Cripps will need plenty of help this week but with Kreuzer due back he should get an easier run....
Blues by 3 goals.....be another non pretty game to watch IMO.
