Autopsy Round 19, 2025: Positives and Negatives vs Richmond

[TY24]

Positives:

• Harley Reid is good at football
• The West tried to vox pop me as I left the stadium and I told them to GAGF
• Harry Edwards continues to prove me wrong

Negatives:

• inside 50 entries made me age 63 years in a few hours
• Corridor kicks killing us AGAIN
• Usual suspects picking and choosing when to chase, tackle, just give a shit in general
• I don’t know what Matt Owies does other than kick the football vaguely near the goals
• Jack Williams isn’t up to it at the moment. Not fit enough.

 

[Dark Sharks]

 

[Pwani Magharibi]

So, we've just been comprehensively belted by the second worst team in the competition. How's that for a reality check?

Positives:

• Harley
• Ryan's goal
• Reasonable games from Edwards and Baker

Negatives:

• Pretty much everything else, but in particular:
• If only we could hit teammates with passes with the clockwork precision we hit Richmond defenders with our kicks into the forward line
• Owies
• Vanished in the third quarter
• Tim Kelly did not justify his recall
• The AFL's bs stand and protected space rules, ruining the sport with ludicrous 50 metre penalties for things that have zero effect on the game
• 1 win season looking more and more certain
• We won't be given the draft assistance (priority picks or whatever else) that we clearly need
• Despite some improvements this season, still look 3+ years away from finals contention
• Pavlich
• As much as we all want him to stay, nobody could blame Harley if he walks away from this basketcase of a club

 

[Westend]

the board needs to be sacked

 

[Patron]

We gained Baker and Graham, but lost Waterman, Allen, Gov, Kelly and Yeo from our best 22

Far more went out than came in.

Unfortunately we are yet to learn that Kelly isn’t in our best 22…

 

[madfx]

- **** this club

+ at least the open was on so could watch that instead

 

[Cuzz09]

Never knew what people saw in Bazzo.

Dudes like Keitel and Goober Joe were kicking bags on him in the WAFL .

Yeah he can take an uncontested mark here n there but I couldn't see the positive in his selection

More than half his WAFL possessions were kick ins too

Yes he's had a rough trip health wise, yes it was his first game back but just too slow, no manic pressure.

Like Maric looks content being out there .

 

[SAweagle]

I get sticking fat and being loyal, but being a fan atm is just mostly miserable and joyless. I don't know how some fan bases put up with this for decades with nothing to show for it.

the sharper the thorns the sweeter the nectar type shit

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Reid

That's it.

Everything else is blatantly ****ed.

 

[Priddis Is Done]

 

[stallon]

Unfortunately we are yet to learn that Kelly isn’t in our best 22…

He wasnt best 22 until Graham and Hewett were out...

 

[jdisc]

Negatives: everything about this club

Positives: interest rates are going down

 

[hudson2006]

Gotta be time for priority picks, right? We’re now 3 and a half games on the bottom, almost at historic levels of bad.

Have to admit I chuckled whenever Baker handballed to the ground. Guy just can’t help himself.

That first 10 minutes really got my hopes up, then came the champagne 3rd quarter. Horrific stuff, constantly beaten in most contests.

Played a weird slow careful game all night that did not work, and was not how we played in those good patches against Geelong, Collingwood or Port.

 

[Astro7]

Kelly was electric!
Owies sensational!

 

[jdisc]

He wasnt best 22 until Graham and Hewett were out...

he's been dropped twice for a week only to come back in because he 'found form' and perform the exact same as he always did

"oh but he dropped himself against port"

brother he just didn't want to fly to Adelaide to play a quarter, it wasn't an honourable decision he just wanted a home cooked meal ffs

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Tell me again how Pyke is too proud to get on his knees to suck on a Schlong that'll lead to extra draft picks

 

[Altum Volantes]

Yeah no positives.

This club can get ****ed for this season, I've had more than enough.

Get out Harley, this place is absolutely COOKED.

underground handball counter was sick, deadset he had eight of them and I was here for every one.

 

[Astro7]

Burn the motherf**kn house down!!!

 

[jdisc]

i dont know how giving noah a bj will lead to draft picks

 

[Elite Pete]

Liam Baker underground handball counter was sick, deadset he had eight of them and I was here for every one.

How many worked?

 

[Dark Sharks]

I am adamant... Absolutely adamant, the players were told to kick it to Ryan. Specifically on top of his head over and over again, just like last week.

It's honestly the only explanation I can see that'd make sense.

Ignore our tall forwards and sit it on an undersized bloke who can't jump. Excellent work.

 

[jdisc]

Positives: AFL ends soon and EPL starts up again

Negatives: I am an arsenal supporter so the cycle of disappointment continues

 

[Elite Pete]

I’m a Mini man and some what agree but that’s a horrible first quote after a defeat like that.

 

[Cuzz09]

only like 4 or 5 months til we look amazing training the house down again... yay
