Autopsy Autopsy vs WBD

[Samsquanch]

What has happened to holding the ball? Are they still paying it?

Yes and no.

 

[nelroo]

Phillips gone. Need to move on atleast one of Powell and Simpkin. Preferably both and get what we can.
Maley and shotgun have a future. Both tough as teak but need polish. There is a pulse with Coops. I just hope the club gives him a run of games. He might find a little niche in the backline. Hopeful.
Shame Larks got injured. They didn’t have an answer for him when we were up and going.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Glad we at least put time into dale to not let him get 30 effective touches as per

The injuries caught up to us

Next week should be a winnable game but the injuries make that hard

Gawn will be licking his lips

Geelong 94 prelim

I was too young for that, but think it was 33-13 free kicks, just reading that makes me mad.

 

[bhoysdontcry67]

Assuming it’s been mentioned elsewhere, but Stevo didn’t go?

Just realised that. Shit

 

[Augustine]

The players did well under adversity and didn’t disgrace the jumper. I never thought we’d win but there was no hope with that run of umpiring. umpire 35 (Peter Bailes) was particularly bad.

 

[Hazey1977]

Apologies locked accidentally. Play on

Free kick Bulldogs

 

[benbrown]

Side aiming for the top four vs a side struggling to get out of the bottom four.

There was a lot to like and a lot to dislike.

I'm more interested in how we go against Melbourne next week, tbh.

Thought a few weeks ago melb game was a good chance for a win,problem now is we are banged up a bit

 

[Its a Process]

Posiitves
Dawson, Cooper, Hardeman all looked good.

Larks channeling Drew in the first quarter was pretty darn exciting.

 

[muttley45]

Looking forward to VFL game tomorrow, out tackling tonight was crap, but even though he cops a lot of shitcanning on here, at least Geordie Payne knows how to lay and stick a tackle, hope he and Banch have good crack, there are opportunities for seniors next week.

 

[Hopper10]

Please **** Daniel off to the Stone Age they just play through him and he is a ****ing potato garden gnome

1 year to go, thank Brady and co. Don’t think I’ve dislike a Nth player more than this potato in my 50 yrs following Nth.

 

[Augustine]

Good effort all things considered

Umps argubly worth 3-5 goals for the dogs. Probably more like a 4 or 5 goal loss, added to that we have a banged up team.

I think that’s a good take. Thought we played well tonight.

 

[LeFtBehinD]

Up to HT and maybe patches of the third was the best way I've seen us play structurally all year. The dogs struggled hard to score, they were gifted most from turnovers. With so many outs before and knocks during the game I'm surprised we held up so well. There's a system there.

 

[Gasometer]

Is this locked

Anyone else impressed with the cheer squads heartfelt rendition of “Bullshite bullshite” towards the umps in the last quarter? Pretty awesome

[Spud11]

Shit again. Cool.

 

[Psi-Roos]

Anyone else impressed with the cheer squads heartfelt rendition of “Bullshite bullshite” towards the umps in the last quarter? Pretty awesome

There was a point I was thinking they might have to roll out the chicken wire over the Umpires race like in the good old days at Arden Street!

 

[Gumble Frankieton]

The commentators mentioned it. They didn't seem to be disagreeing with the sentiment.

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

How awesome to have to catch a replacement bus from Parliament all the way back to the far northern suburbs, on a Thursday night.

 

[winalotroos]

When for most of the drive home the SEN crew are discussing how bad the umpires are you know we got screwed in a big way.

Apart from the last quarter with the injuries and a short break I thought they put up a fight tonight.

One thing is for sure we are still missing a lot of good reliability players.

That actually started in Bay 29.

 

[Samsquanch]

Club nor clarko will say a thing

Fortunately, the cheer squad did manage to get a couple of "Bullshit" chants going. A few shouts directed at nearby umpires too were obviously heard and I genuinely believe that two free kicks were paid because someone behind me with a very clear and loud set of pipes called the umpires corrupt. They were obviously angered by it and the short, dark haired boundary ump looked like he was trying to pinpoint the owner of the voice a few times.

There is no way the AFL are not fully aware of the one-sidedness of the umpiring. It stands out in a lot of games and certain teams appear to benefit consistently while others almost never seem to get a fair go. It's really obvious to anyone who watches the game. I no longer consider AFL level football to be a sport. Sadly, it isn't even very entertaining when it's umpired the way it is these days.

 

[Joshen]

With rare exceptions, at some point when clearing D50, you have to kick it to a contest. We do not / cannot consistently win or at least half those contests.

Probably due to the inability of our talls you end up seeing midfielders fly for the ball, only for their opponents to sweep it away when it hits the deck.

Crowd looked pathetic, but sounded loud on TV

Crowd was fine at the ground.

Twenty five years ago we had about 15k rusted on supporters. It could nudge upwards but on a rainy day against Freo, that was it. And that was during the Carey era.

Right now we make dog balls look appetising and the rusted on core is edging towards 25k. We may not be a big club but considering how bad it's been onfield it's still a good feeling to know we're creeping upwards.

Thursday nights are rough as guts for families. That's a fact. Had kids sleeping in chairs and sections emptying out after 9 30pm. I totally get it.

Glad to see it's overall positive in this thread. We tried our guts out, the C listers showed a bit, McKercher is a legend in the making. Love what he's bringing lately. I think Hansen Jnr is in our 22 which is awesome. Moose needs a run and I agree we should try swapping Daniel for Coops.

I think we should move slowly on Zane. He's on the outer atm but I can't shake the feeling he'll come good if we're patient.

Dawson was great. Positive signs.
