Autopsy Opening Round = GWS 104-52 Collingwood

[hellfire]

Write it off. Bounce back next week.

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.

A few last year that come to mind were worse. The North game and the Hawks game specifically.

 

[Doc1763]

Didn't catch the game, is Nick injured, or is it just cramp?

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

On a positive note. I thought Reef was solid in the defence.

 

[gappa]

Yoiks. Looked slow and fumbly. Not much dare in our kicking, a lot of up the line stuff.

Time for the old…..

 

[Exambolor]

Didn't catch the game, is Nick injured, or is it just cramp?

Likely cramp from the looks.

 

[Silky23]

Can we back track and go to the draft to pick up some foot speed?

 

[Soaring Magpie]

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

If they are not fit enough to go after a full preseason we are in all sorts of trouble.
Not one player looked up for the fight.

Looked like we just going thru the Motions

 

[nahnah]

Forward line awful, backline awful, midfield was cramped and cooked by halftime

 

[JLC]

I have not kept up with the training thread but did anyone that attends training identify our lack of fitness?

Different sport but how does Bellamy get the Storm up every single season for the first round? Absolute genius.

 

[Mr Cannons]

I really was expecting us to win this game easily

 

[TradeDraft]

Write it off. Bounce back next week.

We bloody need too

 

[TW Sherrin]

Likely cramp from the looks.

He looked worse than cramps. Fingers crossed.

 

[thebaldfacts]

Won inside 50's, clearances and contested possessions but cruelled our chances early by not putting scoreboard pressure on early.

Still prefer this early on rather than latter in the year.

Perryman looks good though.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

There was nothing in our game today that would worry the 17 other coaches.

We looked slow, couldn't chase and didn't tackle and then shot ourselves in the foot with our kicking both I50 and at goal.

 

[TradeDraft]

Forward line awful, backline awful, midfield was cramped and cooked by halftime

They all looked Awful

 

[migz]

That. Was. Putrid.

Looked like a 2021 performance from the team and we all know what happened that year.

 

[manicpie]

I feel shattered, confused, bemused and helpless but I still have heaps of hope for this year. Today was just one of those days

 

[TW Sherrin]

Still relying on a pensioner to get clearances is a recipe for disaster.

 

[Bianconeri]

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

I hope so but we said that last year only for that to never eventuate.

 

[Doc1763]

Likely cramp from the looks.

That's good news. If we can get out of the game without any injuries, at least that is one positive.

Houston and maybe Jordy & Cox available next week.

How can someone like Nick cramp so badly though? Maybe his interrupted pre season.

Not really.
Wade is preparing the team to last until the last day of September.
Doomsday predictions after days like today are usually wrong.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Ok, that’s our part played in OR, tell the afl to pick someone else to prop them up in Western Sydney.
It’s the most lackluster opening to a season traveling to that dump.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

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

Maybe we're the orchid team - only thrive under perfect conditions.
