Player gathers the ball on his knees, then crawls forward to headbutt the tackler in the chest. Free paid for high tackle. Multiple melbourne players tackled the second they get the ball, free for holding. St Kilda player drives forward with his head and drops the ball in the tackle. Play on. Consecutive forward 50 entries with noone within 20 metres of Nick Riewoldt. Dawes costing us 3 goals in the opening 10 minutes through his kicking.

tnimark posted:Darcy Moore's 5 goals have taken a lot of the sting out of this loss to be honest. I'm just excited about him. When Cloke comes back, send White to the VFL. Eh, he was playing against a defense with only one player about 190cms. Wait until he gets matched up against someone remotely close to his size.

True, but if you're a Collingwood fan you'd be mad keen on him right now. He's likely going to get beaten 1-on-1 against more experienced similar height defenders this year but he showed a lot in this game beyond just "take mark kick goal". Beyond which his competition is White and Cloke so lets not pretend he's not already a huge upgrade. tnimark posted:When Cloke comes back, send White to the glue factory.

Thought for the day: Melbourne are not good at this football caper. These entries into the attacking 50 have been atrocious

Also how has Riewoldt keeping getting mismatched in defence. Its not like people don't know who he is ffs

All that play and we're up by two kicks. Not often you see the members stand fuller than the general admission. Also gently caress me it's cold.

I can't actually remember the last time I enjoyed going to the football. There have been some times where it feels good afterwards when we won, but actually enjoying being there throughout the whole thing without this overarching sense of dread of whatever the next possession by some incompetent moron could bring? No idea. I'd imagine some time in the Daniher tenure. edit: Actually that's a blatant lie, I really enjoyed going to one of the easter monday games between hawks and geelong, I think it might have been the final easter game in geelongs streak.

Good coaching move: all defenders forward. All forwards back. It seems to be working.

Melbourne defend just fine but they have no idea how to attack with any speed or fluency. If they introduce zones next year I'm betting they will return to Mark Neeld tier. St.Kilda on the other hand might push for the finals.

hahahaha weak as piss 50 metres you fuckstain any player who holds his feet after any sort of contact when taking the mark is an idiot because umpires are loving moronic shitheads who are liable to pay 50 metres anytime your knees hit the ground.

Riewoldt making a joke of 2 Dees defenders this game, marking on one leg. Doesn't help that they're fumbling every other hand pass.
