Autopsy AFL 2022 Round 22 - Demons v Blues Sat August 13th 7:25pm EST (MCG)

George has always been good in-and-under. It's not anything new that he can get clearances or lots of touches. Can also kick on both feet.
Now that he plays for a Victorian club suddenly Victorians club supporters think he has morphed into some sort of player that he never was.
Soz. He is still the same George he was when at the Swans. We simply did not have a spot for him, we have enough of his kind of player. They are not A-graders, they are expendable & can be replaced by other players who are also not A-Graders.
Ryan Clarke, who is more limited than George, has essentially taken over George's role.

Agreed

 

[SuperMal]

I sort of agree. We missed out on finals in 2017 by losing to Collingwood in the last round. We made a PF the following year, flapped about for 2 years and then won a flag. The bones of your group are excellent or can be. McKay, Cripps, Curnow, Walsh, Weitering, Cerra, Fisher, Saad, Silvagni. I don’t think Voss will shirk tough calls at trade time either. You’d most likely be finding new homes for Dow and O’Brien.

I’d expect Carlton to be top 4 next year for sure.

You forgot that lame duck, Setterfield.

 

[SuperMal]

Agreed

The knock on Hewitt has always been his pace.

He can’t hold down a HF or HB position - so he’s either on the ball or on the bench.

Bloody good player all the same.

 

[Cotchins Hair Piece]

Blues clearly the more talented side, getting a few players back combined with the experience into younger players, we should take care of the Dees pretty easily next time around.

Unfortunately that won’t be in the finals…

now that you are not watching him and have nfi you mean

 

[Skull Face]

Lol not one of Hewitt, Kennedy or Cerra are A grade.

We were the best clearance team in the comp with them, dont really care where you rate them champ

 

[Skull Face]

Wasn’t Cerra dropped?

adductor strain?

 

[Skull Face]

Hewett isn't an A grader

Top 3 in the comp for centre clearances top 10 for clearances before going down, again dont care where you rate him

Yeah, you got me, his Swans career is nothing like his Blues career.

Catnan can breathe a sigh of relief.

We have a new gif star!!

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Hewett isn't an A-Grader. Has had a good year, but is not an A-Grader.
He ended up on your list because he isn't an A-Grader. He was expendable.

Hewett isn't an A grader

Maybe not, but he's not far off. Easily our 3rd best mid behind Cripps and Walsh and massively missed when he's not out there.

Rated elite for disposals, handballs, contested possessions, clearances, score involvements, disposal efficiency.
Above average for inside 50s, uncontested ball, intercept possessions, ground ball gets, goal assists, score launches, tackles, pressure acts.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Lol not one of Hewitt, Kennedy or Cerra are A grade.

Was a poor choice to call the A graders, but they're half of our starting midfield. Take three of any team's starting mids out and they'd struggle to replace them with anything of similar quality.

I don't have you winning next week, but you're right if you do, you most likely lose a prelim vs Geelong and not play us in the GF. Fair point.

What’s the lotto numbers? Far out, we beat you on Saturday.. aren’t you over it by now?

First time I had logged back in, just replying to you quoting me, cutie.

 

[Alesana]

I have been through a lot supporting this team. This might be the one that broke me.

You're still in the 8 though. Next week will be the one that breaks you

Was I right?

 

[JyeDye]

Was I right?

Hahaha. Maybe
