Autopsy Opening Round = GWS 104-52 Collingwood

[PonsfordMagpie]

Can we start the season again? A very concerning first up performance.

Need a big response next week against Port, or the season will slip away from us fast.

 

[ZEV]

Too hot for footy

 

[Knoxy]

Very disappointing. Fitness a big concern. No real positives other than it's only round 0. Onto next week.

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

Not ideal but that’s footy.

I’m not too alarmed - we have some quality to come in, but moreso sometimes it’s just not your day.

Today wasn’t ours.

Keen to see some youth - Parker/Ryan etc as option, need some pace.

 

[eyeroller]

I love round zero

 

[coolidge1000]

Can't wait to hear McRae's press conference, the way we played today was nothing short of rubbish I'm hoping we got ahead of ourselves

They were missing a lot more than we were.

 

[jmac70]

Embarrassing performance.
All clubs have them.
We will bounce back.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Geez you’d hope it comes out there is a flu running through the club.
Because there is no other excuse for that display.
Not one player looked invested from the first bounce.

 

[barrackers]

Out worked, out played, out coached. An ugly 6.16 gave us no chance to turning the game around.

 

[TheBaron]

Well that was underwhelming. I'm sure I notice that they'd been training - they had right?

Looked too clumsy, too slow and lacking coordination.

 

[JB1975]

There were some positives.

Not so much ball movement, or fitness, and defence looked quite wobbly.

The forward structure seemed a bit uncertain.

But there were some positives...

 

[DERKADERRR]

Pathetic.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

Too hot for footy

That's a shame as it's going to be 32 next Saturday.

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Yuck.

 

[unplugged]

Missed far too many opportunities early to get momentum in those conditions.

Unfortunately couldn't buy a goal and the likes of Nick Daicos just couldn't get going.

We were doing OK despite not finishing our work until mid 3Q

 

[Exambolor]

I’m always been a glass half full person. I hate throwing in the towel after one game

I think that was more frustrating than anything. Those three goals before half time were a killer.

We had periods where we looked really good but couldn’t get a score going.

Perryman was really good in the midfield, Allan showed some signs at least.

Starting to hate this ground and OR.

Next week with Houston and hopefully Jordy back will be different.

No flu. The players gave their all in the first half.
Not fit enough yet

 

[TheBaron]

Too hot for footy

Not too hot for the Giants, they ran all over us.

 

[danielnajdek]

Kane is going to have a field day this week.

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

Why are we kicking it up in the air when infact we should be stabbing it into our smalls?

 

[TradeDraft]

We been waiting so long to get Footy back but we served up this Utter Shit.

We got Destroyed everywhere on the Ground. We looked like a Team had Turned up for a Pre-Season Game and not a Proper Game

Same Issues last year with Terrible Tackling and only 1 game plan in just Bomb the Ball Long in Hope to our Forwards

Terrible Keeping Nick Daicos on when he was not fit to even run was Silly

Nick Being Injured does not help either

Goal Kicking was Pathetic

Only Postives I took out of the Game was Perryman was Good on Debut and Allan showed some Good Flashes

Hopefully Houston can make a Huge Difference vs Port

 

[whiskeytown]

I’m glass half full on this

Poor last qtr … struggled to run the game out

But prior to that pies were winning disposals, contested possessions, marks, clearances, inside 50s etc

You’d normally be ahead on the scoreboard off all that but they wasted their chances

Despite the score board result being worse than the early Giants game last year… they played much better for most of today

 

[TradeDraft]

Kane is going to have a field day this week.

I won't like I do every week listen to the Media

 

[anshell]

Without a doubt the worst game we’ve played since Fly has been the coach.Limp,listless,lifeless.Just pure crap actually.No positives at all.Back to the drawing board.Hopefully the players will actually turn up for next week’s game.
