Re: WB Game Day V Collingwood R1 2021

All over them, but just a 2 goal lead... going to be interesting to see how we run this one out.

Re: WB Game Day V Collingwood R1 2021

Pathetic effort from our mids and forwards then to leave the entire corridor open to run.

Need to work harder and should have rolled up to cover the space.

Well some things never change. Double the inside 50s for a 2 goal lead. I’d hate to see the score if collingwood matched our inside 50 count

If Naughton isn’t going to touch the ball, then maybe he can take Moore out of the play ??

Re: WB Game Day V Collingwood R1 2021

We've done a lot right, goalkicking still a big weakness. Should be 4 goals at least in front.
I am very pleased however with intent and pressure.

Treloar completely stopped, once he didn't get possession.

Agree, intent and pressure is pleasing, but I get sick to death of seeing us getting the ball consistently 20 metres from goal, and we can’t score. It’s fumble city, and we just can’t keep it in enough to generate a little space to run into open goal.

Re: WB Game Day V Collingwood R1 2021

Without looking at the stats I feel we should have another goal, maybe two but on the balance of play and momentum I don't think there's a great deal in it.

I'm disappointed in Wallis and Naughton / our forwards ability to halve contests or win them. We still really lack a dangerous small forward, though Vanders has been great.

Big second half, need to put the foot down and test them.

I'm not comparing us to Richmond as a team, but they were belting Carlton in inside 50's yet only got them late on the scoreboard. They were also very profligate. I hate it too. I'd love to see a more quality based entry, but some teams seem to back a style that favours quantity of entries and then forward pressure to get more chances.

The inside fifty count is kind of misleading, I mean just because you're able to get it in there it doesn't mean it's easy to score, does it?

It's why I am so annoyed with English for missing a set shot there was no real excuse for spraying. In a game like this you have to take those chances, increase the lead, and force the opposition to try and open up the game.......making it easier for you to score.

It's those he's got to nail if he is going to play the role he's now been given. It's bread and butter stuff.

Treloar and Smith playing wing and Hunter HFF, is this working?
