RD8 Glenelg v Eagles Match Review

[eaglehaslanded]

As per my post in the pre-game thread I thought this would be a danger game. The Eagles really missed Salter but particulary the prsence of Grocke. I thought the umpires were very ordinary all day today - too many inconsintencies. It's not so much the number of frees paid but where there paid that makes the difference. I would have thought close to 5 frees to the Tigers in the fwd line makes a consideable difference.

Take away Glenelg's purple patch in the second half of the third quarter and it would have been a good old fashioned arm wrestle. Both teams had periods of dominance without fully capitalising on their chances. A good standard game and a pleasure to watch. Pleasing to see the Bays win every quarter; a much needed tonic after recent weeks.

Thanks Glenelg!

Yeah ME is correct. I was at the match - 14.8.92 is the correct score.

tigers too good for a depleted eagles unit
good to win but not getting carried away with it

[arcadefire]

The lack of a backup ruckman for Parry really hurt us yesterday. Everytime Parry went off or a rest we got slaughtered in the middle especially in the 3rd quarter

Why didn't you say hi.

The Eagles wore black arm bands yesterday as a mark of respect to the Mother of former CEO John Kantalaftis, who sadly passed away late in the week.

True arcadefire .
also the second quarter didnt help our cause kicking 1 goal six.

spot on 100% & i think it was a case of 'who cracked first' during the 3rd term, i think that holding the ball decision when carr ran down rowntree was the catalyst as we went straight down got a goal & two more in quick succession & from that point on we were never ever going to lose......watching the replay this morning they showed the incident/collision of salter from last week when he got reported & obviously suspended......for mine it was a joke he should never had been reported let alone suspended & at worst it should have been a down field free although personally i don't think it was late & was a perfect hip & shoulder bump....please don't turn our great competition into ballet` football as well

[baysman]

Todd Grima should'nt have been reported against North. Can't do a thing about it !

Why didn't you say hi.

If you can connect the dots, I did say thank you to you after the match.

Think that sums it up pretty well. Glenelg blew a few chances early, Eagles blew a few in the second (1.6 just wasn't good enough, esp after 5.1 in the first) then the game was gone in pretty much 5 mins of the 3rd when Glenelg kicked 4 in about 5 minutes (dont think our boys got near it in that time), after that it was back to a bit of an arm wrestle.

Think we missed Seb Guilhaus yesterday, has worked his guts out in the ruck so far this year, as soon as Parry went off for a rest we really seemed to struggle in the middle, and without Grocke (wont include Salts or Schulz becuase they arent a definate evey week) it meant Hill had to stay forward and Miles stay back. One positive from yesterday is the form of Rowntree and Geddes, were probably the best 2 players in the 2's finals last year so good to see them step up.

[Aerie]

I was interstate for the match (and unfortunately will miss the next 4 weeks as well). Not surprised to hear the result. Makes next weeks game very important. Good to see Rowntree and Geddes continue their good form. Will have to have a look at the ABC Iview.

[am Bays]

Hey Spelly, is it three in a row now for the Bays over the Eags, in FootySA terms that's bitchdom status isn't it???

[wedgetail]

Bays too good, Eags just didn't get enough of the footy. Tenace was v.good.
I thought Rowntree played his best game for the Eags.
The result shows that we need our best cattle on the park to match it with the top sides.
i expect us to react and really challenge CD this week.

[Pseudo]

Hey Spelly, is it three in a row now for the Bays over the Eags, in FootySA terms that's bitchdom status isn't it???

Is that the first time ever that the Bays have beaten WWT three times in a row?

(Would that change if we allowed draws into the equation?)

[holden78]

Can the umpiring get any worse ? ...... scary thought but maybe ! Look out their coming to an oval near you !
