Autopsy Afl 2025 Round 6 - Eagles v Bombers Fri April 18th 6:10pm AEST/4:10pm WST (OS)

feel for Draper, man looked devastated in the rooms.

 

[craffles]

I think West Coasts first quarter shows the standard for them, it wasn’t necessarily pretty football but their intensity completely destroyed our game plan and they cut us up on the rebound.

For me Big ticks for eagles young fellas in Hough, Hewett and Williams, found some gems and hopefully a win just around the corner as tonight could have very easily gone their way.

For us, some big challenges ahead with Draper joining Bryan on the bench for the rest of season. Let’s see how the veteran Goldy goes eh?

Bryan ACL
Draper achilles

What shit luck is that where both our rucks are out with long term injuries and both were looking real good. We are farked that we need to bring in Goldstien

all those boundary target set shots cost us, especially with sharpshooters like Cripps and Liam on an inaccurate night for them. Got to the point where I dreaded a mark out there rather than towards the hot spot.

still, a tight loss to the bombers is nid. Losing by two points to them is a familiar cursed feeling. They were deserving in the end, several players from them to appreciate last night.

just a shame to let off another big lead. We were 6.0 at one point. Liked the game of Hewett who looks back to his promise, and it was an interesting game in the career of the maligned Flynn as well, seemed directed to present more around the ground, didn’t always work out but at least Mini is trying to find out what he can offer. Maric continues to consolidate his role down back.

Ryan cost WC the win with a huge brainfart with just over 2 mins to go.

I'd rather a few more home games....you know like you guys get. About 18 a year

And then you can know what it's like to finish outside of the 8 and still get the hardest fixture for the next year. And then the AFL will make you play a couple of your home game at Bunbury, or some other stadium that is not Optus, just because.

 

[Opium]

Should we be aspiring to the heights of Carlton instead?

You mean a win a final in 20 plus years??

 

[purplearmy]

A team that hasn’t won a game and sits on the bottom of the ladder blames the umpires.

You're talking about Collingwood? Premiers who finished outside the 8 after a draw against the eventual premiers? Who are now doing pretty well this year?

 

[Wosh]

Very very sorry for Draper out for the season, you could see he knew it too poor guy. I don’t care who you barrack for seeing that is just shit all around.

What does one have to do with the other?

 

[JayJ20]

You haven't won a final in how many years?

Take my team out of it, if you want to discuss how diabolical Carlton are, let's go to a Carlton thread. I'm commenting on your loser supporters with their lame traditions after scrapping over the line.

Can't wait to flog you blokes.

Because you smashed West Coast and North? Lmao.

Beating Carlton is pretty simple. Be capable of running. That's it.

On top of losing Bryan to an acl last week.

Both our rucks gone for the season

Yeah serious bad luck.

 

[Blues_Man]

Good point .
Thought the same about the blues today .

Their last 4 wins in about 12 games have come against north , WC,WC and north again.

Maybe your clubs inspired them?

Looks like we inspired the dee's as well , trust Freo to play a winless side into form

facetiousness noted but the facts remain you will never have to play in any remote places like Bunbury not have to travel 80kms a season and have players retirements fast tracked and increased injuries because of the impacts of travel.
You just enjoy 18 home games and the gf at your home ground by default and add the corruption of Victorian umpires
Most corrupt sport in history
