Autopsy Autopsy vs Geelong - Round 5, 2021

[Dan]

I'm happy with what I saw today.

 

[Sphynx]

Atu was fantastic.

Hayden and Mahoney both need spells.

Garner might be fit enough to take Mahoney’s spot.

I doubt we have another medium to replace Hayden after Halls concussion.

 

[FlyHigh18]

I feel really happy with that, enjoyed the whole game, we are building a side and we will get there. Love stevo and atu, thx pies

Agree 100%. Seeing improvements each week.

We’ll definitely win a game or two later on when our defenders are back.

 

[Devington]

We let them walk out of our F50 way to easily.

And if you think JZ had a good game you’re Super Coach nufftie.

Kicking was a bit off in the second half, but other than that I thought he was honestly fine.

 

[BogBot]

When hall went off we lost all drive off half back.

Exiting defence is still our biggest issue imo.

 

[Archer_11]

Same as last week.

Happy overall, a ton of work to do. Doing cartwheels that McKay could make FB his own and loving every minute of Bonar.

Whatever there is to say about today, it could have been a slaughter, and that is to our immense credit.

 

[Val Keating]

The kids can play....but not Atu or Mohony

 

[scottywiper]

Is there a different rule for Hawkins and all other ruck combatants?
Appears to be.

 

[Swallow_Wood]

Larkey tried hard but isn't there yet. At least he stayed involved.

Atu looks very promising and Bonar and Young continue to improve. McKay is a lock.

Phillips isn't anywhere near ready, and he, Powell and Lazzaro should be honing their bodies and skills in the 2's. Scott, Mahoney, Thomas and Hayden should be there with them as all have significant deficiencies. So yeah, * injuries.

Taylor was well involved and should keep his spot.

Effort was good.

* Geelong. That's one hell of a cliff they are facing and they don'thave the breadth of talent and physicality of players to win a flag.

Atu was good?

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Umpires were putrid as usual. The HTB rule is clearly a discretionary rule.

 

[archereleven]

Way to many passengers.

Hayden
Scott
Lazz
Mahony
Phillips

Larkey is not a #1 forward and never will be imo

Umpiring just awful

Can't run games out

HF line was once again a desolate, barron wasteland

Injuries once again. That Jona campaigner needs the arse asap

[Hojuman]

Happy with the effort.

Slowly but surely.

 

[Reagan Smash]

Frustrating- Umpires- getting cute kicking out of D50-Hudson(who gives a * how many times some campaigner kicks it with their right foot)

The HF line issue comes about because they get sucked all the way up the field because of the slow ball movement.

 

[trooroo4life]

Can’t fault the effort. Skill level really letting us down.

Cunners was back to his best, JZ decent again, McKay gave Hawkins a bath, Atu promising.

We are quickly finding out who is worth persisting with. Couple guys cementing themselves i.e Bonar, Young etc. but a few lads getting found out with Hayden the main one, Scott would want to seriously extract the digit. Mahoney likewise, based on his output this year only a long injury list is seeing him keep his place.

We started really, really well. Plenty of promising signs but we just have to work on skill execution and if players can’t improve we can’t continue to carry them. Get someone else in and see what they can do.

Good effort all in all.

 

[DEVO]

There are a few guys that need a boost of confidence in the VFL, but I'm not sure if we have the replacements to do the job at that moment, we pick up a new injury or three every week.

 

[Only Forwards]

Put 5 years in front McKay.

 

[DrZaius]

Phillips isn't anywhere near ready, and he, Powell and Lazzaro should be honing their bodies and skills in the 2's. Scott, Mahoney, Thomas and Hayden should be there with them as all have significant deficiencies. So yeah, fu** injuries.

Taylor was well involved and should keep his spot.

Effort was good.

fu** Geelong. That's one hell of a cliff they are facing and they don'thave the breadth of talent and physicality of players to win a flag.

Powell??

 

[Sphynx]

Err?

 

[amaz199]

Losing Hall made things a lot harder. He actually adds something that allows us to make opposition more accountable.

Again, we lost but I think the real winner was how we kept at em.

There's so much untouched potential in that brigade and it's missing some mature talent. How we get it would be interesting.

Seriously though if we had our best team out there from the start, who knows?

 

[north_lad]

The kids can play....but not Atu or Mohony

What?

 

[LB2Snake]

effort was pretty good. The handbaggers missed A LOT of opportunities to put us to the sword. Our kicks inside 50 were at times bizarro world.

 

[Mcarcherey]

Hayden's disposal worries me, Young's inside 50 kicks need serious improving and can Mahony kick it over 30m?

Other than that fairly good performance and effort

If we had Geelongs forward line we win.

In fact it's embarrassing they struggled to put us away on their home turf with so much experience on every line.

They won tonight but they didn't beat us.

This would have to be potentially one of the biggest age/experience mismatches of all time. I think they were 4 years/100 games or so average above us today (and 4kg haha)
