Autopsy 2021 Rd 22: 14 point win over North Melbourne

[Kapers]

Not sure why all the Florent hate. Many who played worse than him

Everytime he got the ball it was burnt. Using the ball well is one of the most important things as a winger

 

[RW]

We will go out in the first week of the finals on that performance

 

[Superstar swan]

Jmac dropped off aswell. We did enough to win against a dangerous team in a dead rubber match. Can’t be too critical

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Also what happened to Rowbottom? He got quite a lot of the ball in the first half but almost nothing in the second half.

Hard to get the Sherrin when you’re on the bench.

62% ToG (again).

Really hard to know what to make of it.

 

[Chaisa]

Whelming?

Neither overwhelming or underwhelming. Just played like a side that was always likely to win and put the cue in the rack once victory seemed likely (twice).

62% ToG (again).

Really hard to know what to make of it.

Very puzzling. If he isn’t fully fit he shouldn’t be selected. It’s not as if we have a long injury list to contend with

 

[TheWhiteRhino]

My changes:

Out: Melican, Reid, Blakey, Wicks
Ins: Mills, Buddy, Lloyd, Warner

McLean played well, but we constantly run into this problem that he can't ruck. So, if they won't try him there, we should be backing Amartey over Reid.

 

[Superstar swan]

Hopefully campbell did enough to keep his spot next week , he needs to build some confidence

 

[JZ_Skitzo]

Heeney and Wicks very quiet

Heeney only had 73 minutes game time. Was pumping in the first half.

 

[Ticky009]

Not sure what I'm more pleased about, the win or ensuring Norf get their first wooden spoon in 49 years.

 

[SwansProudly]

Harry has his best stats for the season

 

[Superstar swan]

In: buddy Warner millls Lloyd

Out Reid cor parker Melican

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

We will go out in the first week of the finals on that performance

Can we boot the families out again?

(Solid joke)

 

[Tommy221987]

Didn't get to watch the game. AFL game day app saying Kennedy came off injured. Anyone know what happened there?

 

[Ed_Gein]

Alright win. Parker, Hickey, Hayward were all excellent. McLean great, too. Reid and Florent disappointing.

Reid's contract is up at year's end is it not? And we're struggling with cap space to keep Dawson and Hewett.... It's a no brainer I'm sorry to say we have to move him on. Especially when McLean and Amartey can play similar.

 

[Jeffers]

Florent had a good last quarter especially when it was there to be won.

 

[Superstar swan]

Yep it’s time for Reid to go, he’s stolen enough money from the club

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

0_o no idea?

 

[JZ_Skitzo]

All this talk about Rowbottom low game time. Dude was on the ground 4 minutes less than Parker and 5 less than Kennedy.

 

[Superstar swan]

Thought rowbottom was good tonight, best we have seen him in a while

 

[TheWhiteRhino]

*, we're really going to have to play the Giants in week 1 of the finals aren't way? That's the worst possible match up for us

 

[Jack Lord]

90% of footy is mental.

Swans are not switched on as there’s nothing to play for.

To me it’s as simple as that.

 

[Superstar swan]

fu**, we're really going to have to play the Giants in week 1 of the finals aren't way? That's the worst possible match up for us

Yea I really wanted to avoid them

Blakey went off - looks bad ankle damage - in moon boot after the game

Bad blow as Speedy Swan limps off

Running Swan Nick Blakey appears to hurt his ankle in this marking contest
