Autopsy 2024 Rd 8 Disappointing loss for Blues

[BeijingBlue]

Fantasia. What a disappointment. Offers absolutely nothing. Should spend at least a month in the 2's so he can find some form.

It makes me feel better thinking that it did. The alternative is that we were rubbish! Ha!

The umpiring was utter shite but it was utterly shite for the whole game and for both teams.

Voss 3 years you’ve tried to implement “layers” and it doesn’t work. When we play to our strengths we do well. We have a low IQ team and Bolton learnt the hard way, TMI confuses them.

 

[Stickitupthem]

we ain’t making the eight with
young and Durdin in the side

 

[athensblue]

Ed Curnow may be on the phone next week and get the campfire ready

 

[Fevolution!]

At the end of the day, two decent teams battled it out for four quarters and we were on the wrong side of the ledger. There’s many moments in a game that contribute to the result, none more than Harry pinpointing the Collingwood player in the middle of 3 Blues.
But f.. me, Lewis Young

’s attempt on the ground ball in the second quarter which led to Collingwood’s first goal of their run was deplorable, unforgivable. My grandma of 90 could have got lower than that. It was a monumental momentum sucker and changed the course of the game.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Daicos murdering our mids in contested and clearance stats is super embarassing

 

[Korn]

Just like our entire finals last year, when Charlies gets beaten a few times he becomes a bit of a sook for the rest of the game.

 

[Blue4Life]

the three talls might work at marvel but it looks stupid on the g

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Durdin 5 disposals @ 40% efficiency, 0 contested possessions, 0 tackles, 9 pressure acts, 0 score involvements

Fantasia 4 disposals @ 75% efficiency, 4 contested possessions, 2 tackles, 10 pressure acts, 1 score involvement

Certainly can't just single out Fantasia here.

 

[passmark]

Wow really - maybe go and have a lie down

We are truly average despite having the best FB, FF, CHF and midfield in the comp.

We’ll rally at some point this year and but miss top 4.

If you waiting for better you’re wasting your time.

 

[BeijingBlue]

I'd love for you to be right revenant but they should have won by a 3 or 4 goals tonight. A lot of what we do wrong has been common in our game for multiple years now.

Blind kicking from packs, long bombs into the forward line and treacle out of defense and the contest.

 

[Coops93]

I feel like Hewett has been exposed a bit this season. Ball in hand he's been rather poor. He's our best defensive mid for sure but this season he's been poor ball in hand and isn't breaking tackles like he once did. If he doesn't break a tackle he's not mobile enough to step through so he's got nothing else.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

how many times did hewett get caught from behind - awareness was terrible

Everyone will point to the fact he had another 30 touches though…
Just no hurt factor, wanted to play midfield at Swans and they said no !!

 

[BM123]

We move on. Maybe the boys will be so stung we'll go on another run. Need to change some things though.

Yeah I'm already chilled out. Must be my old 21st century Carlton supporting coping mechanism kicking in.

I must admit I had already expected this kind of effort before the game.

It's 21st century Carlton. One day we'll live up to the hype.

 

[jj1978]

We have the worst batch of small and medium forwards in the league. Only Cottrell is any good. Won’t finish top 4 with this lot.

I also think Cotters is carrying something had lost speed.

 

[DangerousD]

Pendlebury free inside 50 in the last.

That’s our night.

Bloody ridiculous, kicks with no pressure directly to the boundary line, it was just aid all night but like always, umpires love to put the whistle away

 

[Bostonian]

Fantasia. What a disappointment. Offers absolutely nothing. Should spend at least a month in the 2's so he can find some form.

That's why he wasn't on an AFL list.

Was offering nothing before he got to us.

Pretty low footy IQ

So much of our footy is low IQ, it's so frustrating to watch.
Handballs to feet, handballs backwards, handballs to someone who is already hot.
Players losing their feet, players not taking the first, easy option.
Turning the ball over then Pies gunning forwards with all defence out of position.
Players unaware they are hot.

In the middle we rely on contest, but have no smarts whatsoever when trying to clear the ball. It's bash, crash and hope.

Up front it's long bombs to the talls and hoping for a mark.

Such a disappointment.

 

[The Blueseum]

Cunners kicked it 3 times in to the forward 50 which resulted in marks and goals. Wasn't great, but it was his first game back too

Cuningham was fantastic. He is the least of our worries.

 

[CCurnow3votes]

George Hewitt had a shocker tonight trying to curb Daicos.
He had a friends as well

Hewy needs to take his first option - hangs on too long at times

 

[NewDarkNavyBlues]

I called this a month ago. The GWS win was an anomaly. Until we acquire an assistant with tactical nous and some speed and class, we are nowhere near it.

Collingwood were leagues above us tonight from watching it at the ground.

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

It’s Rd 8.

A lot of terry towellings in here.

Lots of footy left !

 

[MediocreLad]

Surely Williams and Fantasia don’t play next week??

You young blokes arent used to winning
