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

[LemmingMaster]

Very lucky result, Harry being allowed to run the clock down.
40 seconds jumping to 22 seconds.

Disappointing end to a rather crappy game.

 

[RAPPA]

This team doesn’t cope well when they’re backed in as favourites. Nonetheless, take the win and get some well earned into a couple injured bodies.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

4 from 4 for Josh Fraser - wasnt pretty but we swung the game our way after Q time

I believe the only caretaker ever to go 4/4?

 

[BlueBayou]

Need to make a few changes after that... can't have what should be a fit Saad and Williams sitting in the reserves after the bye while our small forwards are on the wing or failing to produce.

Saad should never get another senior game, except for injury emergencies. Biggest turnover merchant I can recall, absolute chaos with the ball in hand. Break glass in emergency from here on.

 

[NavySteel]

Loving Billy W. Like what he’s doing off HB and the kick ins. Runs really hard and is like two players when he takes the receive.

 

[dangertroy]

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

We just did.

 

[COACH25]

Wins a win
How Good was Harry Dean gave Caddy a bath all night
Great inception and good user
Good signs
Have to be a Smokey for rising star keeps building week on week

 

[passmark]

I wouldn’t be too hard on Derka Derka.

When there’s no pressure up the ground and the defence loses their shape even the best can struggle.

As our pressure went up Derkson and the backline looked better. Funny how that works.

 

[Cowboyblues]

I am
Sick to death of these frees out of the centre bounce. Bloody horrible look for the afl. But we seem to be getting the pineapple for sure.

Go blues. Good win. Enjoy the break and keep bringin us the smiles.

 

[jj1978]

Us supporters need the bye more.

 

[T2B_]

Walsh being out there when he probably shouldn't aside, I thought the coaching performance was pretty good. We turned things around pretty well given the start, just execution that let us down at times (as it does).

 

[BlueBayou]

She is pathetic, she only gets the nothing games and for good reason

It wasn't just Elani, the others made some howlers too.

 

[euphegenia]

Crippa: umm, umm, umm. Bless him.

 

[ferrisb]

One of the worst games I've ever been to.

And I was at the Kreuzer Cup...

BOG. Game changer.

There's my analysis for this match.

 

[SLCv2]

Welp, we didn’t lose I guess

Have a week off and attack the second half of the season

On another note, the Fox Footy commentary is excruciating to listen to. Nate Caddy just played the best 6 possession game of all time according to them

Riewoldt in particular, can barely string a coherent sentence together

 

[Benaly28]

Played like a team wanting the bye.

Really missed Jacob.

 

[SurreyBlue]

Back to the old days.
Horrible, lazy, little pressure, long kicking 150 football.
Just horrendous. Lucky Essendon are worse side in the AFL.

 

[Jacks Seething Rage]

Bit of under rating of the Essendon pressure in here. They were pretty hard at it for three and a half quarters.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

40 seconds jumping to 22 seconds.

That's not luck. There's an official game clock. Just because the coverages feed melts and glitches out means nothing to the official time keeping

 

[Gokz]

 

[Faz 2000]

Saad should never get another senior game, except for injury emergencies. Biggest turnover merchant I can recall, absolute chaos with the ball in hand. Break glass in emergency from here on.

Sag off man. Run fast to maybe make a contest. Give up score.
Get ball. Run fast sideways. Bomb to opposition.

Saad is 1000% not improving our side.

 

[dangertroy]

I believe the only caretaker ever to go 4/4?

Wasn’t a caretaker, but Bolton won 5 in a row when Clarko was out ill for a while.

 

[RedFury]

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.

65-70 out on his non-preferred side. I was very much laughing at the ump.

 

[teagueyubeauty]

Lol Eleni had a shocker tonight.

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

Just an awful umpire, slightly better than Williamson though
