Popular Post farmerjo Posted September 9, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2017 After a weekend of one sided finals we were treated to a classic in the last game of the round. Unfortunately there has to be a loser and Port were after the siren of extra time. Shame a free kick had to decide it but it was there and Shuey cooly slotted it. My adrenalin is still pumping in excitement and dispare for the 2 sides. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Will27 Posted September 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2017 The Tackle: Mark Robinson reveals his likes and dislikes from week 1 of the 2017 AFL finals AN unsung Tiger’s bravery, the Crows double-act, the Cats falter under the heat and the Bombers’ capitulation. There were plenty of highs, and some teams suffered forgettable lows in the opening week of the AFL finals. WHAT I LIKE 1. NICK VLASTUIN Dustin Martin, Trent Cotchin, Alex Rance and Dion Prestia were the high-profile performers, but Vlastuin’s efforts at the back typify what Richmond is all about. He had 19 disposals, kicked a huge goal and took a game-high 10 marks. What the numbers don’t describe is Vlastuin’s bravery and willingness to compete. He’s the kind of player who inspires teammates with his blue-collar work ethic, rather than out-and-out individual brilliance. Can’t think of a defender who runs back with the flight as much as Vlastuin does. 2. JOSH KENNEDY (SYDNEY) His omission from the All-Australian team beggars belief. Dustin Martin, in his first interview before he was drafted, said he was born to play AFL. Well, Kennedy was born to play finals football. He was awarded the best finals player in 2016 and was again the No.1 ranked player against Essendon. He had a game-high 18 contested possessions, game-high eight clearances and a game-high eight score involvements. 3. THE CROUCH BOYS Fears Rory Sloane’s absence would be defining were allayed pretty early, led by the Crouch brothers. Matt Crouch was No.1 for Adelaide in ranking points, disposals, clearances and uncontested possessions and his brother Brad was No.1 for Adelaide in metres gained and inside 50s. Maybe it’s time the opposition stopped Matt Crouch dictating the way he wants to play. 4. MATT PRIDDIS This bloke was dropped towards the end of the season and arguably was best afield in their first final. Football is about ball movement and speed and time in forward half, but you have to win the ball before clicking all that into gear. Priddis is similar to Kennedy in terms of playing trench footy and he was enormous against Port Adelaide. He had 33 disposals (season-high), 17 contested possessions (season-high), 10 clearances (season-high), seven inside 50s (season-high), and 99 pressure points (season-high). Wonder if he still wants to retire. WHAT I DISLIKE 1. CATS UNDER HEAT It must be the blueprint: Pour on the pressure and the Cats are fragile with the pill. The Tigers pressure was through the roof on Friday night, recording a pressure factor of 209, their highest amount of pressure recorded since 2012. Once again, the Cats failed the test. They coughed up 68 points from turnovers, their most in a game this season, and recorded a kicking efficiency 48.9 per cent, their lowest efficiency ever recorded. 2. DELIBERATE DEBACLE The decision to pay a deliberate free kick against West Coast’s Andrew Gaff in the final quarter on Saturday was ridiculous. Under immense pressure, he found a sliver of space and threw the ball on to his foot and kicked it down the line, where it narrowly beat a pack of players and went out of bounds. The scores were level and thankfully, it didn’t help decide the game. Like the rule, but in this play, it was far too harsh. 3. RANCE AND THE TRAINER The effervescent defender copped a hit to the head and seeing his player in distress, the trainer did what trainers do. He delivered the magic cloth to help stem the blood flow, but unfortunately for him, Rance didn’t like the enthusiasm in which the trainer did his job. Rance lashed out verbally and the body language was too severe. Yes, it was heat of the moment, and yes, it could’ve been handled better. 4. BOMBERS CAPITULATION The respect for making the finals the first year out from the drugs suspension was somewhat lost in the 30 minutes of the second quarter when the Swans kicked 10.3 to 2.1. Essendon buckled under the Swans intensity, fumbled and tumbled when they had the ball and the defensive efforts, in the air and on the ground, were of a team way out of their depth. Essendon’s game style is exciting, but in the crunch of a finals game, it wasn’t allowed to flourish. Maybe less zing on the outside and more commitment to the contest is an adjustment for next season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might well say different if Nic Nat returns and he should this week. Just leave him in the goal square one on one. Sydney proved talls are the way to go IF they can mark the ball. I know your quietly confident joboss and just trying to take the attention away. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thechook Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 McCartin, free deliver, a slab and a bottle of chivers for Stringer, fair swap. The signature of Stringer would surely spell the end for Paddy McCartin or Josh Bruce at the Saints. A forwardline containing Bruce, McCartin, Tim Membrey, alongside Stringer, looms as cumbersome and in all likelihood unworkable. One option for coach Alan Richardson could be to drive Stringer’s fitness and rebirth him as a midfielder, but it’d be a gamble given it’s a role the Bulldog has rarely been able to sustain throughout his five-year career. If it was to work it would give the Saints a different look and allow the three-pronged forwardline to remain. Current draft selections: 7, 8, 43, 57, 61 Anything to get rid of McCartin give the doggies every draft pick, Stringer is worth it if they take McCartin along with the picks. If the roos get Stringer I'II sting throw in McCartin for free. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2017/09/14/the-best-fit-for-stringer-and-what-is-the-fall-out/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
