Autopsy Rd 11 Blues create a contest but fade in the last

[Own The Future]

Exactly. We'll finish with 7 or 8 wins for the year. If we are still doing this next season I'm switching clubs.

I assume you’re just trying to bait people, but I’ll bite.
Before this season I’m sure only the most optimistic fans would have picked us for the 8. Most fans would have been ecstatic with improvements across the board and around 9-11 wins. We have 17 games, not 22 - and the 5 we are missing are return matches against last years bottom 6.
I think a recalibrated win total of 7-9 is a pretty fair result. Would clearly love higher, but let’s be realistic.

dow in for murph next week. id keep cotrel in wasnt a bad effort for a first gamer. like his speed and agression.

It won't happen. But I agree.

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Didn't expect to win, but still don't understand why Teague ignored what was working, tempo, hard tag on Kelly, TDK in the ruck, just killed the momentum after half time.

Gibbo was poor, Cottrell is a keep, so is TDK. Murph was good, so too Jones. Cripps and Doc are struggling. Weits was good, given the service to Kennedy

Beyond belief why SPS is still at HB

Setters on the up and Fisher was one touch after being out for a while

WC just a well balanced side

Thought Williamson showed a bit today he has far more potential HB than SPS .. I also putting pitto in ruck changed things but don't know how much petrol TDK had to run out the game ..
Can you get DOW and O'Brien a run of games to see what we need ..

 

[azlou]

Plenty to like, especially with 5 of our 6 forwards out.
I’d love them to keep TDK in.
I’d love Kennedy to spend more time forward. He’s be a weapon there, more so than Cripps who can’t buy a goal.

Cripps needs to spend an off season kicking for goal it’s deplorable

 

[Opine]

I feel nothing after that game

Couldn't agree more. We'll be fine.

Charming. I've been a paid up member for 30 years. I'm never fing off.

It's tough mate, stick fat. There are signs, it all just needs to click.

 

[Jabba73]

18 forward 50 tackles for 0 free kicks to there 5 tackles for 3 free kicks says something is very wrong with the umpires and umpiring in general, our forwards get nothing week after week after week no matter how hard we try they give us nothing, so yeah we can blame the umpires.

If true, that is damning

Off season recruit a gun midfield coach! We need to get Dow, LOB, Walsh, Fish to advance quickly.

 

[bluegrass]

That’s Fox, the trump channel.

David King should be sacked for what he just said.....

Our three KPF our injured.

what a ******* idiot.....

This is true

 

[Benaly28]

Loving the melts on the coach... are supporters expecting a flag this year... we put up a great fight. Missing a forward line of Charlie, Gov, McKay, Martin and Cunners, have a think about that for a moment!!!

plenty of good moments in the game.
TDK/Fish


LOB/dow should come in. for whom i dont know.

 

[FairKouta]

I think we need to throw everything at zac Williams.

 

[bigm386]

Offering him another contract would be irresponsible. Games need to be invested into LOB who would provide more both offensively and defensively.

It's the pace we also lack especially on a wing.

If we are going to run a slower clearence based midfield we need pace on the wings. That isn't Murphy.

 

[SOSforPM]

Fish awesome.

Dekoning showed potential.

Cotrell showed he has some wheels and a motor to go with it...looks to have something.

Almost time to start playing the kids and resting the old fellas especially Murphy.

 

[james Dean]

I like how Darcy says incredible win by the Eagles without McGovern

Fails to mention that we Practically played without our entire forward line

 

[bigm386]

We don't actually play them in the midfield or in the side though lol

 

[BlueBayou]

We didn't lose because of umpires, so not influence on the result, howlers both ways

Is that you, Thy?

 

[FairKouta]

Get dow in out newnes. I’m concerned about Doc I don’t feel comfortable with him ball in hand

 

[rampar]

It's all bs. Bs I tells ya

 

[teknodeejay]

It won't happen. But I agree.

If Cottrell goes out for Cunningham I’ll spew.

 

[TheCoach16]

I thought you guys were good today. You should be proud of your side.
No McGovern, no McKay, obviously no Charlie, Jack Martin injured early. Basically the entire forward line missing, against the premiership favourites at their fortress, and you pushed them really hard for most of the day. We’ve had our own run of injuries at GWS over the years.

I could see how you might be frustrated though. It would tough to watch week after week,

1. A coach who sits back and pretty much just hopes his team will win.

2. A real stalwart and warrior like Murphy just hanging in way too long. It would hurt to see such a great club person become a liability.

3. A captain and top five player in the league, like Cripps, unable to do the one thing he built his reputation on. And be the opposite of whatever “clutch” is.

4. Be able to predict, like watching a replay of a game you’ve already watched, what will happen, and how you will lose, when you look like winning.

But I think you have a lot to look forward to. This is a talented side. You get some key players back from injury, pick up one or two guns at the trade table, and find a coach who can coach, and you’ll be very hard to stop and may even create a genuine dynasty.

 

[Ald Gardiner]

Crippa really needs to stop flopping for in the back trees and get on with the game.

And way too much lip it’s doing him no favours

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

We were good imo, just out gunned.
