    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XLI

    I'm one of the biggest West Coast Eagles haters I know, but even I can recognise that Covid Eagles team was destroyed in a fashion no other team in the league was by Covid. I have a lot of respect for the people involved in that particular team because I believe Covid set them back a tremendous...

    Autopsy 2026 Rd 6 Collapse. Copy. Paste.

    It kinda makes sense and kinda doesn't. I was watching him a lot and while he ran hard and positioned well, a lot of his 'brilliance' involved standing back and waiting for us to fumble the ball out to him. We're really good at committing too many players to the ball in the contest which makes...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVIII

    We may be able to guarantee a consistent, structured role, but we can't guarantee a consistent, structured team. Go to a premiership contender on more money than your current team is offering you? No-brainer as a 27 year old whose body hasn't been doing ya any favours lately.

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVIII

    Look, SOS is a legend of the club but if there's one silver lining about Jack leaving it's that I won't have to see his old man's sour puss face in the stands when we win our next premiership. Just joking of course... About the premiership. Seriously though Jack is a good player but I'm not...

    Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXVII

    Unfortunately a lot of the time, the only form of 'analysis' the media generally has is to move a player to another position. David King is the biggest offender but they all do it. I don't really understand it, they always suggest it but it rarely happens and it rarely works. When a team does...

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

    Can't argue with any of that, that's exactly where our list and team is right now. Unfortunately a good team, which we are not, should have a system in place to cover for an A-grader having an off day. But yeah, when a few A-graders drop off at once, things get harder to cover. Doesn't help when...

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

    Not gonna go too hard on people having a crack at Weiters out of frustration, his performance was shocking, and not shocking as in bad (even though it was) but shocking as in, I was legitimately shocked. You just don't see that from him ever. It doesn't really matter what anyone here says, I...

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

    The funny thing is, we play an outdated game style but we really aren't actually all that good at it anyway. We have a lot of players who can't win a ground ball to save their lives, also can't affect a contest in any positive way. Add to that our 'good' contested players are still one-touch...

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

    Yeah, I wondered exactly the same thing after half time. Hollands was making himself an option every time we had the ball. Instead of moving him back the coaches should have been coaching the rest of the team to look for him at every opportunity in the second half.

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

    Sorry, can't buy this. I agree sometimes Cripps takes a bit too much on but I can't accept the notion he's taking opportunities from others to develop and step up. Cripps is a superstar but is still just one man trying his guts out with every opportunity he gets while the rest of the team are...

    Autopsy 2025 Rd 8 50-110 Adelaide holiday ends on sour note

    Had a novel planned out but thought I'd save everyone the reading. Essentially I think we back ourselves in to win the contest way too much. Only explanation I can come up with as to why I saw us outnumbered at every contest in our half while at the same time they still have free numbers all...

    Autopsy 2024 Rd 20 Loss to Port - Top 4 in jeopardy

    First Crack is probably my favourite in terms of footy analysis, but still leaves a lot to be desired as you can't really fit genuine analysis across all games in the amount of time they have. But these shows just go too early and make declarations every week, and then get made to look silly...

    Autopsy 2024 Rd 20 Loss to Port - Top 4 in jeopardy

    Have been super triggered by our midfield set-up all year. Even when we looked like a million bucks we were still only playing dominant patches of footy and when we weren't dominating, the midfield looked suspect. What I'm seeing, and I'm no expert. Is our midfielders moving to be the outlet...
