Autopsy 2025 Rd 6 Blues fire on all cylinders to thrash Roos

[Aphrodite]

The most pleasing aspect was how the team came out after half time and ironed out the transition issues that appeared in the 2nd quarter. Was a little disjointed and with a couple of easy misses it gave the Roos a sniff.
But wowee, the Baggers were on song in the 3rd and 4th.
Kudos to the coaching group.

15.4 after half time

Does Hewitt play a crap game … he is in some good form .. love the injection of white Carroll and on north side wardlaw is an absolute star … also love we are resting cripps so he can relax

He's having a blinder of a start to the year. When people wonder why Matty Kennedy is no longer at the club, look at Hewett; they couldn't both be in this team playing midfield. Hewett's the better midfielder, I think the club made the right choice.

Anyone have the link to the Voss presser?

I posted this earlier but I haven’t seen the full presser

Norf Board Autopsy thread title - North lose to 26 man Carlton




82pt shellacking - triggered much

 

[Lukeblueboy]

Great win by the boys.
Kept the foot down and buried them, which is what any good side should do in that situation.
You can actually see the team growing in confidence right in front of our eyes

 

[The Sultan]

I had a look at their game autopsy - it's really bad.

Yeah I think we broke them

 

[Dramoth]

Cottrell has gone from average kick to pretty good kick...

He has always been a good kick when he has the space to actually size things up and pinpoint a target. When we get dragged into chaos ball his kicking, along with the rest of the team, goes to shit.

 

[Dramoth]

I ****ing hate it when I have to agree with Caro's lapdog.

 

[gab213]

Thanks for that. It's interesting. I don't read X or Twitter or whatever people call it these days, so I hadn't seen it.

 

[Dramoth]

Yeah I think we broke them

We broke them when we brought shares in them back in the 80s or 90s

Must be close

 

[Bryce Bubbles]

Yeap Austin has found some real gems hey…

Amazing what happens when we play a better brand of footy

Lol, please name these gems? Surely you are not saying this after two east beat games?

 

[JoeyPBLUES]

Anyone have the link to the Voss presser?

 

[Bryce Bubbles]

Hasn’t lost his eyebrows.

He can get ****ed!

He’s worth a million per year in this form, we’re got him on half that…

 

[GoBlues!]

White and Carroll were very impressive

Agree. I thought Lord did well coming on 5 mins into the last quarter. Got into the game quickly, kicked 2 goals and a couple goal assists.

Probably should have come on earlier in the game, for Fogarty or Elijah.

 

[BlueBayou]

What the hell? Was at the game and there were moments TDK rampaged in patches. Xerri did not destroy him.

I made the brave move and ventured over to the Norf board to see how they saw the game. No analysis, only a few dozen posts with votes. Many had X in the votes. Their aappreciation of a game of football matches the skill level of their team. I agree TDK rampaged (good word) when the game was needing to be won. X got a few touches whrn Tom racked the cue. I guess they had to give 'someone' votes, and after Wardlaw, the cupboard was pretty bare.

 

[tarczonandjane]

Was an awesome win but Xerri destroyed TDK in the ruck. Was at the game and beat him often. Fortunately our mids had laser focus today.

All round brutality by us though.
Love it.

I am not saying commentators are right all the time. But your take on TDK and Xerri is diametrically office to what the gang on Fox were saying.

 

[blujoejoe]

Anyone else think we look better without H?

Thought last week there was more fluency once Harry went off (unfortunately).

If it was up to me, I would have subbed Fog for Lord at half time...

 

[Garters]

Do we think Elijah will be better for the hit out ?

Yes, much better. Lot of cobwebs on display. Form temporary, class perm. The form will come with game time. That was how I saw his game today.

 

[CCurnow3picks]

Our pressure was crazy today. By far the most satisfying factor IMHO.

Irrespective of the oppo - pressure is something you can always bring. It comes from within & isn’t a reflection of who you play.

Nobody can say - yeah the pressure was great but is was only North.

That’s something the group can take forward as a non-negotiable.

If they bring that heat every week - they can beat anyone.

 

[Beyond Blue]

The most pleasing thing about today was the small forwards filling their boots even if it was only against questionable opposition. Even Fog who didn’t kicks goal played his part. Hopefully the past 2 weeks give them confidence to make a meaningful contribution against a quality opponent next week.

 

[Beyond Blue]

Do we think Elijah will be better for the hit out ?

Absolutely. He has several elite traits we desperately need. He could really become a top tier star IMO.
