Autopsy Autopsy vs WCE

[Makeshift Park]

Pros:
Can’t knock any win when we’re as starved as we are

Xerri game sense in tight games is 2nd to maybe Pendlebury, genuinely. His time wasting tactics of locking it in stoppages & the forward pocket were fantastic, he just kept driving it into congestion or to the line. He is a stoppage beast and is a massive strength to us, so why not play to it

O’Sullivan & McKercher best games for the club. O’Sullivan endurance compared to Reid looked really good late.

Simpkin while driving me nuts does stand up in clutch moments, we just don’t have a lot of clutch moments

Bad:
Zac Fisher - please please please never again.

Cam Zurhaar for 3.5 quarters

Larkey needs to work out what he wants to do. Be a leader or a whinger. He was double teamed heaps yep but in those moments he needed to lead to a shit spot to try deter the kicker from going to Larkey and allow them to kick to either space for him to double back into or to a 1-on-1 for Curtis or Zurhaar. Can’t just call for it, wrestle 2 and then abuse the kicker.

Kerch looked bloody hubristic and ineffective to me in the first half. Whatever instructions he got at halftime turned his game around though.

 

[Possession]

I'd be in the psych ward if I were an Eagles supporter right now, I'll say that much.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Fisher didn’t seem to know the words to our song

He's collecting a pay cheque and clearly hates it here. Don't really mind if he never plays again

 

[berniemccarthy]

Give wardlaw a rest

Rest him for what ? Finals ??

 

[Makeshift Park]

Not sure what is happening on the field there but I’m not letting any of those fumblers hold my baby.

I wouldn’t even be confident watching them hold my five year old German short haired pointer tbh.

 

[Saul Goode]

Is Reid in trouble for his high hit on Larkey while lying on the ground?

 

[Roo202]

And we’re up to 16th and chasing down the bwues

Yep and now instead of having picks 3 and 2 in the draft, the Tiges now have picks 2 and 3

[Limerick]

Resilience is a great quality. To come from behind, despite the standard of the game, is more than just a win.

Finn O'Sullivan is a deadset gun. Not following the media but going from the game comms he is chronically underrated. At least Gerard plugged his case.

Be interested to see Moose playing the Larkey role.

The Team for next week, will be interesting. Some changes must come.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Wardlaw is going to get dropped and I'll have to apologise to Themanbun. The indignities never end.

 

[Loose_Cannon]

Parker’s 50 nearly gave me an aneurysm.

I yelled so loud the cats scattered and the kiddo asked what I had hurt, as he's only heard me that loud when collecting a finger with a hammer or a table with a pinky toe.

 

[DERRINALPHIL]

Nah. I've consistently heard that the back six is where we're lacking the most and that things are working beautifully between our two talented and totally not gutless front lines. Surely they can't be wrong

I would agree but today they stood up

 

[Danni_Benson]

WTF was that…….

 

[DuckYeah]

Bulge Shaving larkeys head is one of the best calls.

Wheres roo lotto when ya need it? Ohhhh thats right, its only a first year thing

 

[Ischenko]

Most pathetic, spiritless, undeserved "win" in the 167 year history of Australian rules football, in any league, in any division. Would have been better to lose the game, then alot of incompetent factions in the club would have nowhere to hide. Whereas now rather predictably, the club will celebrate like it was Man U knocking off Real Madrid.

Hope the boys enjoy making the tiktok vids during the week, cos Freo will do us by 20 goals next Saturday. Thank Christ it will be buried on foxfooty and not free-to-air and live to the country like today was.

That's the shinboner spirit. If only the boys had played with this kind of atittude. Oh wait–they did, and when they switched on they went up a gear and W had no answer. This forum is full of miserable moutbreaters who would complain that is was raining on the day the won the lottery.

Nah. On paper, we had minimum 30% more talent. Yes we quaffed our own piss for most of it, but individuals were the difference. Individuals, the fortitude and talent of which they don't have, outside a perennially injured Yeo and Harley about 35% of the time.

They're cooked. We're arguably cooked-er, but most reasonable WC fans, if they exist, would see that result as understandable once the dust settles

 

[Chadwiko]

Wardlaw is going to get dropped and I'll have to apologise to Themanbun. The indignities never end.

I genuinely and unironically believe we will not make any substantive changes that would involve extra flights from Melbourne.

Because we're an unserious footy club.

 

[Disco Dew]

I have only 4 things to say post that atrocity.
A win is a win is a win… even if it’s ****ing shit. Ran the game out well
Big X - 3 votes
Sheeze - immense second half, haven’t seen him like that all season.
FOS - keep him up the ground please. Class and composure

That’s all.
Enjoy your cornettos everyone, you deserve it

 

[Briedis]

I reckon that section of wall in the coaches box Clarko had his eye on was pretty relieved we won

 

[koshari]

Probably slightly happy to be on the receiving side of a grand heist for a change but the period between the opening 10 mins and the last 15 mins was unadulterated garbage.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Nah he was really crucial. I'd make a timestamped video with links to a spreadsheet to prove it and post it in multiple threads but I have better things to do with my time.

Don't forget to post your own Tweets.

 

[FlyHigh18]

Honestly loved the fightback. It’s something I’m not used to seeing but is finally becoming more common this year.

I’m also sick of the opposition bringing record pressure numbers when playing us. So many times this year. But we fought through it.

There’s been an adjustment to the way we play again, players were a little confused but we’ll get better.

 

[DocSholl]

Still very weak in the contest but his run and ability to hit a target forward of centre was really important

 

[rickety]

That was hard to watch. Larkey is dire. Zurhaar is either there or daydreaming. Fisher can leave. Hansen Jnr can go with him. Simpkin and LMac epitomise the club - can do it, but stuff up at any given opportunity. LDU couldn't catch a cold. I am tired of Caleb already. Wtf has happened to Harry and George?

Sigh

Don't forget to post your own Tweets.

And start every post with "just to be clear, I WANT him to do well for North Melbourne" before actively barracking for players you don't like or perceive to be ahead of your favourites to fail
