Post subject:  R7: Pros and Cons

PROS:

- We were seriously challenge, interstate, with 40k supporters against us and WON!!
- Grigg outstanding in the last term in the guts when it counted.
- Bower has two pieces of play that inspired me. First was the mark then took the game on to setup the goal for Simmo that put us 15pts in front. the second was his chase on the wing to force the Eagles player to kick out of the full.
- Carrazzo might of had some shocking kicks, but 42 posessions :shock:
- Scotland was brilliant all night
- Judd and Stevens really stood up when things were tough.
- Browne has cemented the back pocket role
- JFK showed us the talent alot of us knew he had.
- Eddie another two goals and great work ethic to come back when Wirra got on top.
- Benchy tough tackling and clearances under the packs.
- JR a great first half. Not sure if he was tagged in the second half?
- Simmo ran hard and kicked some goals.
- Back six is growing rapidly into a Premiership defence.

CONS:

- We still can't play four quarters.
- Fev is a spanner and will miss two weeks for that gut punch.
- Our rucks thrashed again. Kreuzer not big enough against the big boys just yet.
- Foot skills of some player under pressure still a big weekness.

Con - Does Fev get a week for his love tap on Selwood ?? Does he serve it for the Dream Team game or Home and Away ??

Pros:
Judd's clearance that saved us the game; unbelievably incredible clearance to Gibbs
Backline - Bower, Jamo and Waite. Bower the confidence after a mark to play on and break the play up.
Ability to hold on after a surge from the eagles.
AB's work at holding the ball in in the middle.
Grigg and Browne showing very good signs
Setanta showing he is much better down back than up forward

Cons:
Fev will get suspended; only has himself to blame for it
Ruck - 44 hitouts to 19
AB's finishing
Fisher and Wiggins not keeping their feet
Kicking to 1 on 3 at half forward - desperately need Hartlett to stay fit - first qtr last week showed how much better we look with a genuine KP there.

Pro:
Browne - can play
Irish - cracking game, back to 07 form
Wiggggooooooo - nuff said
Judd - @#$%&! he stood up when he needed to
Stevo - nice effort
Bower - good again. Improving each week.
JR - IMproved again. The irony of Armstrong kicking into him on the mark ... priceless.

Cons -
Stopping and high fiving when 8 goals up.
JK - sad. Like Tommi, the boys getting round him at the end made me tear up too. Why couldn't he pull a standout game for us like that!
Channel 7 - Rosa has been important in the last quarter? WTF are you on Bruce you old queen. Rosa is the biggest fraud since Chad Felcher. Both those cauliflower got found out as front runners tonight.
Carrazo. A lot of stats to nowhere. I just don't see what he brings to the table over AB.

I recon Murphy will be lucky if he is not sighted by the match review panel as well.

I thought Kennedy played great. I am very happy for him, I want him back.

Cons:

Yet another pathetic showing in the match day thread when we looked in trouble.

Well done keogh - I reckon Setanta's name deserves to be at the top of the list. Compared to his game against Werribee he ... well ... there's no comparison. A wonderful game.

Stevens - glorious return to form.

Browne - confident and composed.

Fisher - worked hard.

Fevola - I sent a message to a mate after his third (?) goal - genius

Murphy - hard man

Judd - bits of stunning stuff

Bentick - hard man

Betts - Betts

Kruiser - marks the ball

guys I've missed - nary a bad game. Oh wait, what am I saying? Russell! BOG on occasions!!! Bower - BOG on other ocassions!

Bad stuff - yeah nah

Pros
- JR in the first half
- Browne looks a likely type
- Bower and Grigg improving
- Gibbs
- overall our defensive back six is looking good

Cons
- Fev will probably cop a couple of weeks for the gut punch
- Kennedy and Masten would look good in Navy Blue
- Weagles should have won...their poor goalkicking and woeful 2nd qtr saved us

Author:  Heavs [ Fri May 02, 2008 11:36 pm ]

Another plus - the boys don't step back anymore. IF someone is copping grief they will go in en masse and step up to the plate. Fev drew the line last year when he ran through the Filth huddle and we haven't looked back since.

No Adam Hunter gutless cat shit from our boys. Did anyone else notice Brett Jones playing the Hunter cat role tonight, acting tough then trying to fall over for the cheap free and getting laughed at. Woosha must love that shit.

Sorry - I've got more.

Wiggins - see O'hAilpin

Carrazzo - really, really good. Forget about bad kicks - whaddya expect after 42 touches?

Scotland - the BEST man in the Carlton team going back with the flight of the ball

One would assume that if Kerr's allowed to play - Fevola's allowed to play

Pro's: We don't have to play on Subiaco oval again this season. It's normally a beautiful oval, and (since we stopped playing at PP) the 2nd best surface behind the MCG. Looked worse than the Dome last night :|

Pro's: As I said in the other thread, imagine how good we're going to be when we finally learn how to win games.


Pro's: I can hear fireworks in the background. Obviously someone else has been watching the game in the area :lol:
