AFL Autopsy 1 point (technical) win vs the Weagles

[Mootsy]

Not far off with my tip

just take off the 24..

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Great win after dropping a few and taking down an in form team.

 

[rumply]

Never in doubt.

was thinking of you late there

 

[Vindicater]

Brad needs to make a statement at selection.

 

[scyth]

Not far off with my tip

You meant that as “1 to 4” right?

 

[Yoda_]

FYI,

West Coast Eagles more experienced by age (24yr9mth v 25 yr) and games (-9.9 less games per player) and 6 x 149+ games per player compared to Essendon 2.

No excuse for what our ambitions were 6 weeks ago, embarrassed by how tight it got but a little bit of perspective

 

[MiguelM]

Boy oh boy.

He might have had a couple of clanger kicks but Parish on Kelly in the last 5 probably got us over the line.

Do we really want to play finals on the back of that?

Lots of players jogging, we lack intensity.

 

[TheUnicorn]

Good teams get it done even when challenged late

Nope.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Undefeated with Tsatas in the side

Glad Redman could get the win for his 100th.
Albeit not the most convincing

Brad needs to make a statement at selection.

No, that won't be happening.

 

[rumply]

People need to settle. We weren't great but the Eagles have obviously turned the corner after a horrid run.

Take the points & never speak of it again.

In: Weideman

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

In both quality of play and officiating I think that was game of the year.

 

[Kettles]

What a s hitful team we are saddled with. How can Cox ever be selected again?

 

[horj89]

Not even upset. We just make it so hard for ourselves.

Tsatas gets a big tick. Kicking looked good to me. Would of loved to have seen him kick that goal.

 

[Learntopray]

Fitting that Heppell lost his man for the go ahead goal.
Thanks for your service through some dark times, but hold the door open for a few others hopefully on your way out.

 

[WindyHillZephyr]

Percentage booster for the Eagles. Let's thrash North and give them #1 draft pick for a laugh.

 

[Jobe Watson]

So many passengers.

No pressure from our forward line. They scored 43 points out of their defence. Shocking.

 

[The Airing of Grievances]

Well at least we haven’t handed Reid to Norf??

I'd been thinking the plan was to torture North by handing Harley to them this week then snatch him away by losing again next week.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Yep so anyways.

Onto next week.

 

[Goat Hird]

A lot of kids out there for both sides, a minute longer, Kelly wins them the game; something Parish could never do.

 

[Squeaky]

Brad needs to make a statement at selection.

A series of statements. We'd be better off playing short rather than picking some of the usual suspects again.

 

[84859300]

Exactly the kind of game we needed to have, being so close to finals but most likley missing.

These are the games that everyone expects a win, but you have a trip and a stumble... just to see who stands up.

Hepp, great career but time to call it. Tsatas gets another 120 minutes. Caldwell has had a great 6 weeks, time for a spell. Tex in as sub. Monty in for Hep.

Against North, we may still lose; but it's time to get close to the 2024 team on the park.

 

[FlyingV]

We can build from this.
