Autopsy 2024 Round 1 Blues hold on in yet another heartstopper

[CCurnow3picks]

We win, but if I’m Voss I’d be livid after the game. Our form is all over the shop and we can’t keep grinding out single point wins and be happy.

North will start the season fresh like last year so they’ll be no gimee.

We get weiters , Martin, Motlop & Marchy back for selection - we freshen up after two energy sapping games.

You’re afraid of north - really?

I don’t have anything as good as my country roads post from last week.

2-0. Yay.

Burn the tape.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Didn't like that game.

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

Well that sure was a tough old slog! We probably went into this one a bit overconfident and we nearly paid the price for that. Richmond to be fair to them were well up for this one.

Still though we got the four points. Let's be thankful for that and let's also give the Roos a belting the next day.

They say you’ve gotta learn to “win ugly”…

Yeah, but that was Joe Daniher ugly.

You never go full Joe Daniher ugly...

 

[Wickzki]

Take the 4 points and run like hell

We have a lot to learn and build towards before we're anything more than pretenders this year.

Should have won that a lot more convincingly than we did tonight. So many blown opportunities to win comfortably but we just won't do it.

Need to settle and play confidently. Charlie in the goal square. Kemp after taking the mark and gifting them a goal that could have given them the win.

Richmond just don't give up. Important lessons for our boys to learn from their former premiership players tonight.

 

[Philth]

Top game!
See youse in September I reckon

 

[kreuze_missile]

Didn’t have to tick many “who played well” boxes in the poll this week…

 

[T2B_]

Kemp you magnificent emerging crazy making bastard!

Could be the next Liam Jones...

 

[CCurnow3picks]

I'm sold on Carroll I'll say that. He has that amount of class at AFL level.

His last half was better, promising.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Getting tired of these bee's dick wins




but I'll take em hehe

 

[LanceRomance]

The second the game ended I rewound to Boyd's miss to check the before and after scores - the AFL definitely owes us a point

Yep, thought they stuffed that up.

We won by 6 points

If you brought me paperwork at the start of the year saying we’d have two wins under a goal against Brisbane at the Gabba and our bogey side Richmond I would’ve signed on the dotted line.

McGovern was great tonight and I think Cripps was clearly best on ground. DeKoning’s star is rising and I’m loving it

The bees dick should grow by a point soon

 

[CCurnow3picks]

Didn't like that game.

Felt like we were stuck in second all game

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

A serious finals team wins that by six goals plus. I hope Vossy tears shreds off them.

Yep all those awesome six plus goal wins the pies had last season..... Wait.... No they had to come from behind and win ugly a lot.

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

‘000, i’d like to report a robbery”

 

[Accidental genius]

Maybe last weeks big effort got a bit out of us….took a while for us to get going

 

[outabounds]

take the points and run

 

[morningbrown]

They didn't have any wins this bad

 

[Cowboyblues]

Harry CAN kick.
TDK stood up.
For most of us an unexpected 2-0 going into the bye.

Take it.
Run and work on a little
Composure over the next fortnight.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

BT - “When might we see you?”

Walshy - “Hopefully in the next couple of weeks. It’s tracking well.”

 

[Zlatan]

I'm sold on Carroll I'll say that. He has that amount of class at AFL level.

Same. Has strength, tenacity and a reliable kick. I don’t see him coming out of the midfield anytime soon.

 

[reg_lower91]

Im glad we won I guess?

Winning ugly is a sign of maturity (somewhat), but we also won ugly in the first 4-5 rounds last year too. I just hope it was a one off.

 

[ParapMarkets]

Huge 4 points. I’m trying to remember the last time we had a comfortable win, my heart is still pumping
