Discussion 2024 Round 8: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Monya Meow Meow]

Laird recovered well this quarter

 

[Leroy]

Put the "E" on Rozee.
Now watch him dribble his way up to 70-80, to make me take him!

I was going to, but had nobody to loop him with after Garcia wasn't dropped and Jhye Clark got back in.

Oh well, hope for a big last quarter I guess?

[Slammer]

Sweet has conned me. Oh dear.

The whole Port Adelaide team have me conned. Are we sure they are not a VFL team ?

 

[jobeywatto]

Rozee doesn't even want to try to kick the ball long. Bloke is cooked.

 

[BlufBlufShuv]

Jake Soligo rising into premo status.

 

[donnybuang]

Seriously, screw Port for trying to play Rozee. I would've preferred for him to miss so I could just play a rookie. Everyone knew this was a big risk and he's struggling.

Jarred his knee, so a different injury to be fair to them. Just unlucky for owners.

At least he's still out there so there's hope for a decent score.

 

[Leroy]

At least he's still out there so there's hope for a decent score.

If Port can get it together and bring the margin in there will be plenty of points on offer.

So long as Rankine still kicks the winning goal

 

[Rowsus]

What % of teams are using Sweet as R2 this week I wonder? Going to hurt them big time this week…

Still might outscore a banged up Marshall!

 

[Santoz]

He's going ok, is a rookie ruckman, might still get to 80 or thereabouts

I'd prefer my R2 to score more than my M8 or D6.

 

[Tamuhawk]

Wish Rozee had just missed tonight. Watching him not even attempt to kick it is just pure torture.

 

[jobeywatto]

Jarred his knee, so a different injury to be fair to them. Just unlucky for owners.

He was struggling even before that. No explosiveness and afraid to kick the ball. Any other game except a Showdown and I doubt he would've played.

And now subbed. Yeah cool...

 

[Maccas marvels]

Rozzee subbed off!

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

Rozee subbed out as expected

 

[Shannon]

What a ridiculous decision to play Rozee - was clearly never right to go

 

[Peter56]

Rozzee and Curtin subbed

 

[Tamuhawk]

Rozee officially subbed out... round cooked in the first game already.

 

[Chumpion]

Doesn't help when champion data blatantly rob him, that long 60m kick fwd where Rankine courageously when back with the flight and fogarty led out at the ball was given as ineffective.... Long kicks to a contest are supposed to be rated effective, whereas that kick was a long kick to the actual advantage of 2 of his team-mates and given ineffective. I'm hating how much SC relies on some boffin at CD's opinion. Same goes for what they consider contested or not and the worst by far is what they consider hitouts to advantage. Gawn can hit the ball to grass 5m away from a teammate and if they pick it up he gets given a hitout to advantage. And some players absolutely get preferential treatment.

How many meters was the kick? It has to be over a certain distance to be considered long, so if it was under that threshold it’s not him being robbed at all and is just CD managing their processes.

 

[Meltingpot38]

This has turned into a bloody disaster. Just leave Rozee out and we could’ve traded him! Ken the new Bevo. Furious
