    Autopsy 2024 Rd 11 Leaders let Blues down in season defining loss to Giants

    Absolutely not the case, literally more than half of my posts are about how McGovern should never have been moved back in 2021. Look at where Jesse Hogan has most of his shots. They are all closer to goal and mostly with little angle. If you want to have a higher probability of kicking...

    Autopsy 2024 Rd 11 Leaders let Blues down in season defining loss to Giants

    You're complaining about a specific incident that literally was not an issue. If he kicked it to durdin I would've had no issue provided he hit his target. He chose to go to charlie (probably because charlie was more likely to score from his position than durdin), backed himself to take on the...

    Autopsy 2024 Rd 11 Leaders let Blues down in season defining loss to Giants

    The kick was to Charlie's advantage hence he marked it, there's nothing lucky about anything that Charlie does. And who cares if durdin was free, he would've kicked from deep on the boundary which is much more of a low percentage shot compared to where charlie was. As long as you hit your target...

    Autopsy 2024 Rd 11 Leaders let Blues down in season defining loss to Giants

    There weren't many positives but after a dismal first half McGovern with 2 goal assists when moved forward (equal highest on the ground) was something. Think he needs to play forward for the rest of the year now. If he performs then he earns an extension. If not then move him on.

    Yeah I certainly wouldn't have an issue with him being dropped. Not only that but I think on first crack he has had 17 turnovers and 7 have been direct goals which is the highest in the comp.

    They played together 8 times in the forward line (2 of those games curnow/gov got subbed out so 6 full games when we were a bottom 2 side). He was such a "poor" forward that's why Adelaide give him a contract extension at about approx 650k a year at the age of 22, ranking elite in the...

    Like I said, he ranked elite for "average" goal assists in those years. Kemp is not "averaging" 3 goal assists in fact he has 2 in total.

    McGovern was either injured or playing injured in his 3 years up forward (club literally confirmed these things). Not to mention he ranked elite for average goal assists in 2017 and 2020. A 3rd tall needs to be a goal kicker AND a goal provider. JSOS is a good goal provider but has never been a...

    Autopsy 2025 Rd 3 Blues lose another lead to go 0-3

    I'm not disagreeing with you I agree that our efficiency inside 50 is horrible, but we statistically were a very poor team at TURNING a rebound 50 into an inside 50 which refers to our back half game. The attached is from R21 of last year.

    Autopsy 2025 Rd 3 Blues lose another lead to go 0-3

    He he was injured for more than half of 2020/21 and in 2019 the club played him injured which the club confirmed. He ranked elite across the competition for goal assists in 2017 and 2020, hence he is a proven goal provider.

    Autopsy 2025 Rd 3 Blues lose another lead to go 0-3

    He is not good when actually having to defend against opponents and we are statistically a horrible team at moving the ball from D50 to F50. So we gain very little from his ball use. Plus he is a statistically proven goalkicker and goal provider who complements curnow and mckay. Outside of the 2...

    Autopsy 2025 Rd 3 Blues lose another lead to go 0-3

    Really feels like 1 step forward and 2 steps back, because we've solved a key positional hole (2nd KPD) but got a another major problem which is the 3rd intercept defender. Since 2024 when he was injured I really warmed to JSOS as a key back as I knew that Kemp and McGovern aren't keys and...

    Preview 2025 Rd 3 Carlton vs Western Bulldogs Friday 28th March 7:40PM AEDT @ Marvel Stadium

    Think this is an intriguing point. The biggest positional need in our team for a number of years has been the 2nd KPD. Apart from Young who should be a backup, JSOS is the only one that can maybe do it. Kemp, Haynes and McGovern are all 3rd banana/intercept type. They are not capable of playing...
