Autopsy 2024 Rd 11 Leaders let Blues down in season defining loss to Giants

[passmark]

No doubt we’ll get the word from inside the club again about how committed the boys are and they’re backing Voss 100%.

Nobody in a coaching or leadership position ever suffers any consequences.

Standards are appalling and the coaching isn’t much better

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I think back to what Curnow did last week. Game on the line and feigns a left foot snap to then go back on his right and miss. 20m out from goal on a 45 degree angle.thats our leadership right there.

If our leaders on the field can't or won't do the simple things right, what hope do we have for our younger players coming through? What hope do we have?

You'd never see that sort of crsp from Pendlebury. It's representative of our inability to execute the fundemental parts of the game. It'd be absolutely infuriating of you're the coach.

Curnow shits me to tears. Just superhero efforts only, never any grit or toughness or willingness to sacrifice for anyone else. Does not do the percentage thing ever.

Disappointing loss, luckily the Giants were missing half a dozen guns.
It’s going to be a very tough run home for Baggers in the second half of the season.

 

[Beer n Skittles]

Senior players continue to make the worst possible decision in any given situation. Even previously smart footballers like Weitering. Coaching has to be a concern

 

[HereComesJuddy]

If this isn’t a sign to trade players and cash in then we will only become more and more shit over the next few years.

Easily a bottom 6 club with no run, low level skills and average footy IQ.

If we don’t trade some of our guns we are going to stink it up for many years to come.

The positives aka hope that we supporters have, surely today shows we are a very below average outfit

 

[mochacinolatte]

We were sold a lemon this year.



Positive - Docherty looked really good.

 

[Drexl 31]

Dont be too hard on Motlop. What a load of c... Get rid of at least half at seasons end, TDK and Harry traded, Voss sacked. Rebuild, thats all folks.

 

[Accidental genius]

Just no resemblance of any game plan

After 3.2578965 seasons Voss is going no where

Same ol crapOla

 

[Stig O'Hara]

There’s some guys out there going through the motions, ticking the KPI’s with no impact & happy enough to take the pay checks.

Of that lot, Cerra was very good.

There’s an hours decent footy in us & that simply isn’t enough.

We just do not hurt opposition sides physically or run & they know that.

Did like Lords game today, thought Carroll battled hard, HOF is raw, but there’s signs, White gets it enough, has to get greedy around the sticks.

That’s about it.

 

[AB_Blue]

Marvel stadium won’t have to worry about clearing the stadium for the next game…..most supporters left before the end of the game and the rest didn’t even bother to turn up…much like the players themselves!!

 

[Thrawn]

We had a chance to trade McKay for Petracca, exactly the kind of player we need right now. Instead we pick Mr "In no rush for a premiership" who plays 1 good game out of every 4.

 

[BlueVision]

I reckon Walsh, Curnow, McKay, Weitering and TDK might want to have a look at themselves for wasting their generation of talent. All of them were poor today as they have been all season unfortunately. Voss isn’t perfect but this is the third coach for a lot of these guys. Maybe, just maybe it’s the players.

Yep, I agree.

We`ve sat through close to a 10 year rebuild for this, would rather go through it again than just meekly keep going through the motions.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Motlop
Young
White
Carroll
Durdin
McGovern
Binns
Acres

If that is today's list, you're kidding yourself if Weiters isn't at the top.

I do love the list bit though.

 

[The Bighouse]

terrible outing…absolute poor performances from our millions dollar leaders

Walsh
Cripps
H
Charlie
Tdk
Weits

Donate it back, lads!

 

[mochacinolatte]

I'm a little frustrated in the Motlop hate this time.

9 disposals, 6 tackles and a goal.

Durds meanwhile had 6 disposals, 2 tackles and not a ripple on the scoreboard.

I watched Mots carefully this week because he is copping it on facebook and on here. A poor kick, a dropped mark, but lots of heart and effort. I'm not sure why he's the only small forward singled out every week.

To be fair, he was burnt a few times this game. McGovern was lucky that Curnow marked that inside 50.

 

[I bleed Blue]

Well I'm glad I'm in China for business and didn't have to watch that.

Might just stay here for the rest of the year. What a shambles

The issue is watch those players thrive at a new club just like Kennedy.

[SkyhorseTamer]

Just kick it long to Charlie or Harry. Trust me it'll work eventually.

 

[thebluenewdeal]

It’s been this way all season. Leaders and senior players are playing like boneheads and it’s been costing us games.

 

[Derogue]

Maybe they should head to Ed Curnow's place over the bye for another camp

 

[Jacks Seething Rage]

Motlop
Young
White
Carroll
Durdin
McGovern
Binns
Acres

Can only assume Weiters made a special list of his own?

 

[kreuze_missile]

Glad I took the kids to the movies.

I think I’ll skip a few more this year

 

[passmark]

Lucky we didn’t lose by 42

Yeah, I often talk about us wasting the elite talent we have, especially Cripps at this stage of his career ... BUT on occasion, it's the elite talent that let themselves down.

Haynes, Hollands, Carroll, Lord, Cerra, White, Docherty ... they did their jobs. We can't pin this one on the bottom half of the side.
