Autopsy 2026 Rd 13 Blues squeak out a win in mediocre game

[jj1978]

We typically suck pre bye. Regardless of ladder position for some reason the games against this mob never go to expectations. We were flat, too many were off their game and too many cameos instead of consistency.

 

[ajb72]

Worst game of footy ever.

Both teams were absolute dogshit and the umpiring standard was even worse, highlighted by allowing McKay to take 30 seconds off the clock when there was no way he was having a shot.

Absolute dogshit.

 

[chuncey]

We won but we are not much good.

[Blue and Silver]

Win the bye week and make it 5 on the trot

We'll win, but the corrupt AFL won't give us any points

 

[dangertroy]

It’s an ugly win against a team with both hands on the wooden spoon, but sometimes you’ve just gotta win ugly. It’s the kind of game we would have lost a couple of months ago.
I don’t know what it really tells us about where we’re at, but this would have been a bad loss going into the bye…

 

[Accidental genius]

Shut up cripps - go and have your shower

 

[Sweet Seventeen]

If Derksen ever plays again I'll microwave my membership.

I thought he did do some good things, but yeah he did some crap things as well. Apparently he is better up forward, I really

hope he is.

 

[mochacinolatte]

we will be 5 in the row, surely we can beat the byes.

 

[Faz 2000]

So…

Great to beat Essendon
Horrible performance all round
Played like millionaires (which we do as favourites)

A LOT of coachable moments. In the past we didn’t learn. Might we, now?

 

[Just Kreuzing]

We'll win, but the corrupt AFL won't give us any points

Every other club will get points for the bye, you watch…..

 

[BlueBayou]

Ugly, ugly, ugly win

Ugly wins still provide 4 points...

and in this case, maybe a reality check

 

[Korn]

Don't be silly. He's a young KPP with very little experience. We could still find a role for him.

4 years with GWS couldn't get a game. He is terrible.

 

[jj1978]

If Derksen ever plays again I'll microwave my membership.

Was better than Ison and a few others.

 

[Mondyboy]

I don’t know what people expect. We are a bottom six team and * threw everything they had against us. We grafted out the win and that’s enough.

Billy Wilson is getting better and better.

 

[16bit]

That was certainly a game.

Painful watch.

A win is a win, I guess.

 

[Accidental genius]

I thought he did do some good things, but yeah he did some crap things as well. Apparently he is better up forward, I really

hope he is.

Definitely tries/works hard.

 

[SolGoodman]

Need to learn to win these shit games, have to start somewhere so you take this.

Wilson and Dean will be generals in the backline very very soon, both have absolutely no fear no matter if they've made an error previously or not. Absolutely love them.

 

[BlueBayou]

Should never umpire again.

I think I said that 5 years ago

 

[Jacks Seething Rage]

Don't be silly. He's a young KPP with very little experience. We could still find a role for him.

We are making rapid progress if we are nuking memberships after a win.

Good signs.

 

[Graffy4242]

Don't be silly. He's a young KPP with very little experience. We could still find a role for him.

Just turned it over again and again, missed 10m passes. He should have swapped with Brodie.

 

[SpiritOfCarlton]

Player leadership needs to be changed.

Over and over and over and over and over again. No pressure play good. Pressure on play bad.

 

[RedFury]

Relieved to get the win but geez they should be embarrassed by that last 5 minutes.

Worked hard for most of the last to gain the ascendency and that 3 goal lead, then nearly threw it all away with 3 minutes left.

I will take it but given * were massively younger and less experienced - basically a VFL side, it was pretty underwhelming.

 

[YeoShuey]

Lol Eleni had a shocker tonight.

Imagine letting Harry take 30 seconds off the clock. He marked it almost 60 out.

Smart by Harry. Probably saw she was the umpire in the area and was like "yeah I can get away with this". That's what I would have done anyway

 

[Graffy4242]

I thought he did do some good things, but yeah he did some crap things as well. Apparently he is better up forward, I really

hope he is.

Should have swapped with Brodie.
