Pev in the backline.
Pev in the backline.
Ok, enough is enough. Just stop fking doing it!!! For the second time this year, Pev is our best player in the first half, and then is moved on to a dangerous small forward that tears him to shreds. How many times does it have to happen before the coaching staff realise he cant fking play back there?

I didn't think he was playing in the backline, I just thought he was tagging Brent Harvey in the midfield and dragged to the forward line. But that clanger kick to a North Melbourne player was ugly - right idea but off the side of the boot instead of going into the space where the Essendon player was running to.

How retarded a comment is that. We were trying to win the game FFS. He had to get the ball moving forawrd quickly. It was a bad turnover, but no worse that Scotty's missed shot at goal in the context of the game. Comparing him with Kepler, just proves you're a fking idiot.Essendon4eva wrote:Diffenatly.
Don't let him off the hook with that kick. When Kepler did it against Collingwood we were all up in arms, but when Pev does it, we change our tune.

By the way, if you have been watching us play without using the BRAILE method this year, you will notice that Pev is not "in and under". He and Stants are the two runners, that work their arses off to give our players someone to give the friggin pill too.Essendon4eva wrote: Can't have four in and under players in the same team.

Correct. Echoes my thoughts exactly.robbie67 wrote:Ok, enough is enough. Just stop fking doing it!!!

The absolute carbon copy has happened for Pev twice this year against Carlton (Stevens) and North (Harvey). Pev starts with Stevens/Harvey in the midfield, and plays pretty well in the first half, keeping tight on his opponent and picking up some touches himself. Then the opposition coach (Pagan/Laidley) drop their bloke onto the HFF/FP and Pev gets taken to the cleaners.
Exactly, and i mean exactly, the same thing happened tonight as it did against Carlton. Dunno who's to blame, but you'd think they would've at least been alert to this possibility after the Carlton game.

I don't care what role he has been playing. He IS a in and under player. His skills are not polished enough to be delivering the ball inside 50.robbie67 wrote:By the way, if you have been watching us play without using the BRAILE method this year, you will notice that Pev is not "in and under".

Are you going to prove me wrong that its a good chance when Pevrill gets the football he will disadvantage our team?

Really fk-wit? Does "he cant play full stop" contribute to a decent debate? I can prove you wrong all you like if by chance you managed to pass maths at the grade 1 level, which I seriously doubt.Essendon4eva wrote:Well your more of a dikhead and prove to me that you CANNOT prove me wrong.
To gutless to have a decent debate about a player, so you throw insults. Your a sad man.
Lets say Pev turned it over 5 times tonight. Thats one less than Hird did mind you, but then again, can "Hird play full stop"? So if Pev had say, 25 touches tonight, 80% of the time the ball ended up to the advantage of a bloke wearing red and black (that's the Essendon team). So 20% of the time, yep their is a chance the other team (they were wearing blue and white tonight) will get the footy. So no, it's not the first thing that eneters my mind when he gets it. Now i suggest when you go to games, that you actually try watching what the f*** is going on, and then....and only then will you even be able to contribute to a decent debate. Now fk off.
Peverill has been one of ouir best players this season. Certainly the most consistent along with McVeigh. Try having a dig at the passengers in the team....you know, the one's that supposedly have pace and skill but don't bother chasing and doing the hard things....Essendon4eva wrote:He can't play...period.
How many turn-overs by foot and hand 2nite? About 4 or 5.
Out of Watson, Johnson, Hird and pevrill, pev is the odd one out. Can't have four in and under players in the same team.
Re: Pev in the backline.
Could it be a situation where the opposition's coach realises Pev's weakness in the defensive 50 and they drag him in there with Pev's opponent pushing forward (good tactic of course), and Sheeds not having another option to run with a Harvey type? Dunno, but he's definitely been exposed down there. As much as I hate to say it (and I do), it is good coaching by Pagan and Laidley to exploit it.robbie67 wrote:Ok, enough is enough.
