Round 19 Chit Chat

[Jim05]

Who is this Carlisle bloke everyone has been talking about?

Bit hard when the delivery is rubbish but he had an off night and was soundly beaten.
Still did more than Tippett and for quarter the price lol

[Jim05]

Ya have to laugh at Goddard talking to the players like he's some sort of leadership man. He was disgraceful tonight, his efforts when Sydney had the ball were terrible, he just gave up on many occasions. Then he has the nerve to have a go at team mates for not picking up his man. The new Nick Maxwell.

Is it just me or did Tippet look like he was only about 50% fit, didnt move well at all, looked real slow

Agreed he was terrible tonight and was in no position to blast others

[Jim05]

Harsh Jimbo.

Your clearance work was very good, pressure and effort was certainly there but yes by foot you weren't great.

Not harsh at all. No good winning the ball at clearences and kicking it straight back to the opposition.
Still have no forward structure and team selection is ordinary at best

Their clearance work was ordinary IMO, no point getting the clearance when you lack composure to use the ball, a scrubby 20m kick doesnt cut it against the Swans. Think they won the clearances because they had more players at the contest, Sydney owned the 15-20m perimeter of the clearances

Not just you. I reckon I could run faster then him and I have a top speed of 1km/ph

Very hard to win when the home side is favoured 24-11 in the free kick count and your side only receives 5 frees after 1/4 time.
Hard enough for any side to win against a very good Sydney side without getting a reaming from the umps

So when essendon players continue to take blokes high, the umpires should just ignore them??!

Not to mention the 2 very dubious deliberate decisions as well..

I think several of them were there but there was plenty that were not especially to Ducker McGlynn.
Would be nice to get some 50/50's aswell, reckon there was atleast 5-6 high tackles on us go un rewarded.
Didnt cost us the game though, gifting you 5 of your first 6 goals with skill errors hurt more

[carey]

WTF!

There's a tranny asking questions in Bombers Press conference

Hence I've never really rated the bloke.

[stan]

Mitch Grigg the sub again. Whilst its unlikely to affect the result today, is there any danger in you guys giving him a run to develop him at AFL level. If not kindly return him to Norwood, thanks.

I know Port have shown interest in Grigg I can personally see why I really rate the kid.

We'll give them Butcher straight swap.

[bennymacca]

Cracking day for footy today

[bennymacca]

Great start here. Pressure is great and besides hendo using it well

[bennymacca]

Missed two targets and they score on the rebound. Pretty much sums up the crows season

[bennymacca]

Coasters are using the ball much better now

[bennymacca]

If he didn't punch that again he would have got away with it. Lucky for the crows

[bennymacca]

50/50 holding the ball again. Taking advantage of it though
