Match Discussion: Round 13 vs Storm @ AAMI Park

[Haffa]

it's past the point of going for the Knights, now we go for career ending injuries to Billy

Let's not stop there. A few more players on the list

 

[Bartwah]

What better what to lure cooper Cronk here then by playing like absolute crap

 

[slotmachine]

Storm have bombed a couple now.

 

[Haffa]

Storm have checked out thankfully.

I don't think brownie can blame the refs for this one.

There are some calls he needs to question.

There are some calls he needs to question.

One. The forward pass was rubbish. The refs are about reason 99 we lost this game.

 

[Sydney Knight]

The only thing to cheer for is a intercept try or penalty goal so no one gets free donuts

 

[Haffa]

One. The forward pass was rubbish. The refs are about reason 99 we lost this game.

The try call is worth questioning.

Never said he should blame them for it all. It's worth a phone call at some point.

Has there ever been a team not to have a tackle in the opposition 20?

 

[slotmachine]

So close! Tackled on the 21!

 

[slotmachine]

There it is! In the 72nd minute.

 

[Pedge1971]

I suspected we might get a touch up in this gane but geeze these 2 idiots with the whistle have made sure of it!

 

[Tom155]

Haha no free donuts

 

[Pedge1971]

No donuts for you!!

 

[Pedge1971]

Well and truly outgunned. If we were a race horse we would be shot.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Back to the drawing board.
I feel like ditching most of the team after a performance like that but I know they can do better.

 

[Sydney Knight]

I can't even explain that lack of possession. We didn't even drop the ball that much. Just completely outclassed physically and Cronks kicking game was spot on .

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

I don't think that there was much we could have done about that. We didn't help ourselves at times but they were way too good for us.
A call going for us like that disallowed try might have upset them a little and swung it back to us to be in the game but it would have taken a lot with what we have and how we can perform.
Lamb and Levi were ok in the first half. Feeney put a lot of effort into it. Ross had a shocker.
We just aren't good enough.

 

[Swarzey]

Glad to see the anti-donut movement alive here lmao. Wanted to belt the bloke on the mic going on about it.

Shit game. Not the worst, about what to expect against a club like Melbourne. Usual problems it seemed though.

 

[PhilGould]

Most teams would struggle against that side, even without Smith. Was always going to be tough. Can't really single anyone out, just get back to the drawing board for next week.

No one played well but the pack was really exposed imo. If we need to fill 5 of the top 10 roster spots, 4 should be forwards.
