Autopsy 2025 Rd 23 Blues power on to their best performance of the year

[T2B_]

Carroll - 12 touches at 100%
O.Hollands - 20 at 95%

Gonna be hard to bag out Ollie this week

 

[Michael Jezz]

Good to take player development out of the back end of the season
Walsh when not sore and playing outside is our most important player
Kids were awesome but I don't read much into Port's SANFL team playing away
Proud of Harry's intent. Crippa more fwd time is the future
Our tackling was poor. So many broken Tackles

 

[Dramoth]

To all those whinging about the red time goals, we'd already won the game. Why push yourself that little bit extra and suffer an injury. We want this time fit and well to take on the drug cheats next week.

 

[LanceRomance]

No point in risking injuries. We aren't chasing percentage.

I get that part, just worried about the mentality

 

[Blue_Fusion]

Always good to win by 9 goals.

Harry obviously, his stand out game for the year by a country mile.

Thought Evans was pretty good again.

Lord was playing well until he got subbed.

Hudson has good hands.

 

[gunslingr]

Love Williams’ pretend Gatorade shower

 

[Dramoth]

Geez Harry’s a big unit

And he's ****ing quick

WAtch it will be weiters. Only player not afl is Durdin and Wilson is not quite there, yet

 

[SurreyBlue]

We are so much better than we have shown this year. What a wasted year.

Yeah Wilson was pretty good in VFL, he hasn't clicked at this level yet at all, but early days

 

[norway blue]

We are
tough. We bashed Port. I love all of you .

 

[sweethoney]

Haynes was good on the wing

 

[CaptainCharisma]

Good to get a win with kids like O'Keefe, Wilson, Moir, Carroll, Lord etc. in the team.
Winning together is massive for their development.

Good to have Walsh back, he looked in good nick too. Makes a massive difference in our midfield mix when he's fit and firing.

Harry was immense. Get him back in that form and get a full preseason into Charlie and we can turn this around quicker than you think.

I didn't hear what happened to Lord - hopefully nothing too serious.

Billy's had 4 games... should be AFL legendary quality already. delist

 

[passmark]

Haynes was good on the wing

He wins 75% of his contest, always in the right spot, takes marks etc.

All this and he’s not quick and not a great kick .

Absolute must play next year

 

[carlton_99]

Youth really good again. Lord, Cowan, O.Hollads, Carroll, Young, HOF, Moir and Motlop all with good games. Wilson got better in the 2nd half as well. Great to see Harry tear a game apart like that. And amazing to see the performance Walsh was able to put up in his return game. TDKs best game in a long while as well. Good to get a big win!

I heard someone mention a cork.

 

[myblueroan]

Careful, you aren't allowed to mention that, you should just be happy with the win. We have a gaslighter lurking

 

[AndyNicka]

Strange game, we never got out of second gear and honestly port never got out of first gear.

Not sure how much to take from it but it was good to see young players like o’keefe, young, lord, cow and Ollie take some strides forward today.

Also special thanks to chief for the upgraded seats!

 

[T2B_]

Haynes was good on the wing

That old bloke really keeps surprising

 

[Bluechip66]

 

[TENACIOUS]

We have some real exciting young talent.
Lord
Cowan
Evans
Carroll
2x Hollands
HOK
HOF
Carroll
Young
Moir

Bring in some top talent in this years off season and play with the game plan today, with spirit and freedom. Then it’s going to be an exciting year in 2026.

 

[Blue and Silver]

Carroll - 12 touches at 100%
O.Hollands - 20 at 95%

Don't forget some of Carroll's tackles!

 

[Blues_1864]

Port were totally abject - I'm not sure I've seen a worse performance, relative to the talent and experience they had on the field - but it is at least good to see us holding our heads up and hitting the finish line hard, which is not something we've done a lot of in recent years (when out of contention). Good signs I reckon (admittedly I am looking very hard for positives).
