Autopsy 2025 AFL Round 6: A Dog day afternoon

[Pakenhamsaint]

I think we were just unlucky. The umpires cheated
Seriously, we had no run after ten minutes, and as the fatigue set in the decision making, disposal and effort dropped away.
Steele and Marshall playing injured, Garcia maybe still a bit sick, Henry injured again.
Just a dirty night. Try again next week.

Why though?

You can't play 10 mins of football

 

[gringo2011]

I hope it turns out that there was a spread of flu through the club and that's why we we so pathetic.

They gave my eyes AIDS.

 

[Sir Owens]

Didn't see that performance coming. heck me what a shocker

We had no answer for anything and our lack of marking options down the line really stood out.

Not sure what has happened to Marshall. Got absolutely dominated

 

[seasonedsainter]

Life is too short for this shit.

Fatigue set in after 10 minutes ?.

We are screwed.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

You know what's bad.

We did the same shit against the dogs last week

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Dogs have a far better midfield and boy oh boy we are lacking a key tall

 

[hayes]

Last two weeks have been a real reality check. When we come up against star studded teams we just can’t get near them.

 

[Dard Ball Get]

It gets worse, George is sending the discord chat nude videos of him singing Tom Petty on his balcony ffs

 

[Max the great]

We going to continue gifting games to Jones?

 

[cartwright]

The club had to x ray Jack Steele post game and have released the scan to the public. View attachment 2289773View attachment 2289773

I see the problem… TWO pea hearts

 

[my name was taken]

Steele hang your head in shame and give up the captaincy on Monday

Pathetic call the last two weeks to say you’re able to play

Had the Lowest ToG too, except for Jones and Henry - hewas nowhere near it. If we say we are about high standards then he is getting a free pass. Slow with 0 impact in the contest tonight, huge liability against the dogs midfield.

 

[denisp]

Seniors pathetic. Obviously as very young squad but embarrassing as it gets.
Marshall and Steele utterly uncompetitive, Henry was a mistake, Hill a disaster.

Footscray looked pretty young tonight too - smashed us

 

[Sheepey]

Just about the worst midfield performance that I can remember. Possibly the worst game Marshall and Steele have played for the club. Just utterly embarrassing.

Liam Henry's lack of intensity around the ball was something to behold. 1 disposal subbed out at half time is damning.

 

[seasonedsainter]

I've been paying full AFL membership with club support even though I haven't been to a game since early 2018. Literally burning time money and emotions on this Club year in year out it's madness, pure madness.

 

[saint_]

Horrible game from the midfield, 23-44 clearances. Never going to give yourself a shot playing from the back half every time when you lose the centre clearances 20-6. Bring in one of the young kids might as well at this point. I can accept growing pains from the young ones making mistakes, but the senior leaders were poor tonight.

 

[Jade Buddha]

We’ll finish bottom 4 and deservedly so. Just a jog around the park for some of these sub standard hacks. Seriously that was absolute unacceptable crap.

 

[jwikked]

Maybe we should bring in JUH. At least he has the decency to not show up before he crosses the white line.

Wilkie is the only senior player who can hold his head high. Captain Steele once again has been shown to have zero qualities as captain.
And no, that’s not just tonight, that’s for a few years now.

Garcia, Henry, etc can take some excuses at this stage of their careers, but to have the senior players show this level of disrespect to the club is not acceptable.

If Ross has any spine, there will be some senior players in the VFL next week. And we must have a new captain as soon as possible.

Steele wouldn’t even make it to the leadership group in any other team in the AFL, yet he’s captain. Not good.

 

[NasiahToKing]

They missed some sitters. Could’ve been a 100+ thumping.

Had a bet with a dogs mate before the game that Darcy won’t kick a goal tonight. lol

 

[Kennedy84]

Who turned the tap off in the first qtr?

I really don't get the hype around Wilson.

 

[Yawkey way]

Three points, firstly we’re not the finished product far from it so check the finals team garbage. Secondly teams have nights where for whatever reason it’s not your night and tonight was one of those. Lastly playing injured players is rarely a great idea for club or player.

 

[Cleanupsoup]

Not one player can hold their head up from that effort.

Unacceptable.

Counterpoint

Nas

These old guys are taking the piss. I know he wasn’t great tonight but fking get Windy into the leadership group ffs. These old bludging campaigners are taking us nowhere.

He doesn't select himself. Neither does Marshall or Henry.

That's on the Coaching team.
They need to have the balls and say no. The young blokes would be better.

But on that. We were outmatched and outcoached.
Lots of work to be done by players and coaches alike.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

I’m glad to see the vomit gifs are still alive and well
