[TiAn_]

May have set a new PB for yelling at the tv during a win.

Best win of the year.

[MaxiBont]

We smashed one of the best teams off the park and won comfortably despite having horrendous goal kicking. Giants looked awful because we made them look awful. Completely stifled their game.


Sam Darcy is turning into one hell of a player.

JUH goal kicking is a real worry, he is still young but he really needs to improve in Ant area.

Swans are a huge test, but it would be a great statement to beat them.

in the guts might perform CPR on our season. If we can sneak a win against sydney at home next week, we're back in the mix.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Not sure we ever reached great heights but a very convincing win, the scoreline flattered the Giants. Arguably our biggest scalp since the Jamarra game against Melbourne in 2022.

Wasn’t overly convinced with the Harmes signing. Thought he’d be solid as inside mid backup but didn’t think he offered enough in the positions that he was going to play here. His work in the past month as a wing/half forward has been very good.

 

[spinningmagnets]

Obvious issues with conversion aside, quite happy with that... 4 quarter performance, never let them get a run on.

 

[goodcop badcop]

That 2017 draft was a great parting gift from Dalrymple. Naughton on one of the best defenders in the game with 20 possessions and 1.2. Richards BOG and has brought something completely different to our midfield.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Any game we beat this focus group franchise is a great time regardless of the circumstances.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Ed Richards in the guts might perform CPR on our season. If we can sneak a win against sydney at home next week, we're back in the mix.

It will be bloody tough on the back of a 5 day break but if we can win one against the Pies or Lions (know they are out of form but they are still good) it becomes interesting.

 

[DueWest]

Frustrating match, I thought GWS had swapped coaches to Ross Lyon for a while.

Good win away in wet conditions but to be honest we dominated and should have put it way earlier.

We are frustrating to watch at times though

 

[jdz101]

Sam Darcy is a top 10 contested mark in the league.

He's also likely our second best forward.

He's played 15 games.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Jamara is kicking where he points his ball and body too - Should be an easy fix with the video tape for Brad Johnson

Best opposition we’ve beaten for a long time. Good to win ugly instead of dropping the heads.

post libba has saved our midfield.

Treloar excellent, Naughton good, Darcy gonna be a player and Westy and Harmes doing the tough stuff we need.

 

[Astro_]

It’s a good win regardless of the goal kicking and gets us back into the season. We destroyed them which bodes well for the next few weeks.

That Hawthorn loss has lit the spark. If we can win two of the next 3 then we are well positioned

 

[TiAn_]

I sat alone in a pub looking like a serial killer for a lot of that game.

Kudos to you for making it through that without being escorted out.

 

[Struggle]

That 2017 draft was a great parting gift from Dalrymple. Naughton on one of the best defenders in the game with 20 possessions and 1.2. Richards BOG and has brought something completely different to our midfield.

We can thank melbourne traffic and Carlton ruling out an 18 year old kid due to being slightly late for Richards

 

[spinningmagnets]

Jamara is kicking where he points his ball and body too - Should be an easy fix with the video tape for Brad Johnson.

I think it's more that he sweeps his leg across the line and hitting the ball with consistency is impossible. It's why is misses in all sort of directions. He need to drive his leg down the line a lot more.
