Discussion 2024 Round 5: Teams & In Game Discussion

[7/11]

Bont should get a goal assist for his run over kick that resulted in West’s 2nd goal.

Think everyone is forgetting Essendon is one of the tougher ruck matchups in the comp. English’s first quarter effort is making Grundy’s 99 against the bombers in rd 2 look pretty darn good currently.

Edit: Marshall only scored 79 against them for reference

Yeah the Goldy and Draper combo is one of the tougher ruck matchups at the moment.

Darcy could've been going huge. 50 minute penalty

That seems harsh

 

[bluesbrothers]

Dogs took both Bont and Libba off at the same time for the last 8 min. Dogs have been thrashed since then. What sort of coaching allows that??

Parish has been really underwhelming. Will be a tasty price soon but not sure I wanna go there

Grateful for those 2 English freebie marks in the backline just now. Be lucky to get to 70 tonight. Having an absolute mare.

Bont captain in 17% of teams seems high for the second match of the round

I don't think he's 100% right. He was awful last week too.

 

[doc ron]

English sub next week.

@IDIG - good feeling cheering for Goldy now he is in your team?

Is this the first Goldy 223 reference for the season ?

 

[Miller is a Steele]

Remember when Merrett was only good in the second half of the season? Very impressive start to the season.

Yeah, it was around the time Isaac Heeney was Supercoach poison if I recall correctly

Read the following conspiracy theory concerning English March 18 this year: "
It's official. It's a rumour.

Gone. They're cuddling him because concussions. Then they cop the pick.

It was interesting to watch his work up forward in R1. It's phoney season but yeah, something aint right.

This is the first case of a concussion impaired player coming onto the market. There are ramifications all over the joint.

Like all good rumours this one has a basis in logic.


BTW English's 2023 heatmaps (looking for cheapies in the back pocket like some kind of Lachie Neale) was concussion avoidance related. He was still getting SI. But smart play by the coach to minimise his exposure."
