Rd 10 vs North Melbourne @ Marvel - Match Thread

Was the Hayward bump high? Haven't seen a replay at the ground.

Not sure if Roos fans or Boos fans.

I’ll see myself out.

[Mel_C]

Why don’t the players spend more time practicing goal kicking?

Well we don't know if they do but whatever they're doing it's not working. For some I feel it's all in the head because players like McLean and Hayward used to be great kicks.

[Foreign Legion]

McAndrew has shown he is a ruck option I think. I posted in the pre-match thread that I think he might be a bloke who rises to the standard he is in.

Unfortunately Hickey is not getting any younger either. However I'd still play Hickey over him.

Was the Hayward bump high? Haven't seen a replay at the ground.

Nothing malicious in it, but off the ground, shoulder hits head, and a fraction too late to the contest to claim he was contesting the ball. We will see, and it may depend on whether Wardlaw has any concussion, but I think a week is likely

Gulden is everywhere. Amazing endurance

[Bill Posters]

Nice dive by Simpkin there.

[Mel_C]

Can Blakey please stop those dinky kicks! They haven't worked in weeks. Keep it simple!

1,056. I'm glad he's looking a bit better today.

North Melbourne are walking out of the middle???

Stephens no good ...

[Daisi]

Rowbottom injured? OMG! He's been playing well the last few weeks. I hope it's not too bad

[Mel_C]

Our centre clearance work is trash.

[i'm-uninformed2]

That was so poor by Gould. He had his man under the ball, could easily have eased back to take the mark, missed the moment, then let Larkey run by him. Just awful.

[longmile]

Thank god we're kicking accurately now

No idea how to fix our centre clearances

[waswan]

6 weeks easy
