Autopsy flogged by hawks, back to game over at half time times

[koshari]

good thing we focused on the midfield in the rebuild,

 

[Only Forwards]

As I said in the game day thread it was clear we do not have the mentality to beat them.

We will not have truly arrived until we do.

We lost a game I thought we would I think we have f*** all chance this coming week.

Maybe the week after.

Who knows.

 

[Gasometer]

Just sick of letting this team ruin part of my weekends. Life is too short, I wish I could give them up.

After 5 years?

I go into every game expecting a loss

Feel nothing after a loss

But the wins like last Saturday are electric

In clarko you trust.
At least you got ur 100th year anniversary to look forward to on Thursday night whilst providing finger food and a stand up beer for your 1975 premiership champions. I’m sure blokes in their 70s and 80s will be good standing up for 4hrs .
Surely you blokes aren’t that cheap?

Absolutely nothing makes me want to attend Thursday night- not even the centenary. Only this club could do that to you after merely being AFL level for 5-6 weeks. Well done millionaires.

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

I’m of the opinion that we can’t measure improvement against 1-6th; well you can but we’re not in that league and you will turn yourself inside out

We’re a bottom 8 team; look at those about us and measure improvements there.

Hopefully we’ll move up those rungs over 2026-28

Were probably playing a Preliminary Finalist and Thursday the possible Premiers and then the Swans with their guns back

Relax

I’m with you but the effort from the first bounce was unacceptable. We don’t have to win against top 6 sides, but at least show up.

I'll be at the pub watching with Keka and Burnsy.

This game was a blend of horrific effort and pigheaded coaching.

LDU, Xerri, and Parker can hold their heads high. I didn’t even mind Kerch’s game — despite the turnovers, he was clearly trying, which was a rare commodity today.

Larkey competed well again, but his radar continues to be off compared to previous form. Curse that damned article.

McDonald was our best defender, which today is like being the nicest guy in prison.

I can excuse some of the rookies — Hardeman, Dawson, Hansen, FOS. I mean, look at their leaders. Can you blame them?

Even Sheezel is mortal and has the occasional mare. No hard feelings there — he's one of the few with credits in the bank.

Mitchell knew Wardlaw was the only bloke giving a yelp defensively, so he threw Nash on him — who then jumped to LDU after the concussion.

He’s also smart enough to know our midfield moves like treacle, so he used Watson in spurts through the middle. Smart footy.

We got obliterated in the guts, which exposed deeply limited blokes like Pink to the craft of Gunston — who absolutely cooked him.

Logue is a fat idiot. Outmarked by Watson, gave Chol acres of space all day, and sold out his WA buddy Fisher with zero voice.

Speaking of, aside from a sick goal, Fisher is a talentless idiot.

Caleb tries his little heart out, but the boys look for him constantly — no matter where he is — and just give it to him. If he kept it within 30 metres he’d be fine, but he thinks he’s got 50-metre lasers in him.

Simpkin’s pulling out the faux tough guy act again — shoving blokes when they’re on the ground, throwing in late cheapies, and don’t forget the early off-the-ball free for a tickle to Meek. Lay a tackle or throw a shepherd, you peanut. Parker is genuinely tough — he does the fundamentals without question. Big difference.

Powell should be so much more. He’s got phenomenal tools and flashes them occasionally, but consistency of effort is his biggest weakness. Get angry, mate. Worst on ground when you factor in what he’s capable of.

Zurhaar did zip while our midfield got smashed, yet no one thought to give him a run in the guts. He might’ve been shit there too, but at least give it a try.

Curtis, who’s been great this year, forgot all about playing football and spent all his energy trying to ‘get even’ with the defenders wrecking him.

Get a psychologist. Get a witch doctor. Get the ghost of Christmas ****ing past. I don’t care — just get someone in to fix this bloody mess.

I’m with you but the effort from the first bounce was unacceptable. We don’t have to win against top 6 sides, but at least show up.

Pressure was there for the first 10 minutes and then we turned into witches hats and dropped the bundle

 

[Mute Point]

Let’s be honest at where this side is at



Logue - in and out of the Freo side

Pink - delisted by Sydney without playing a game

Konstanty - traded by Sydney without playing a game

Fisher - in and out of the Carlton side

Stevens - in and out of the Sydney side

RHJ - mid season draft pick up

Daniel - struggled to get a game at the Bulldogs

Darling - only there to provide experience

Simpkin - worst captain in the AFL



When Clarko came to the club, he said his not looking for AFL players, his looking for players that can play on the last Saturday in September



Xerri- yes
Curtis - yes
Sheezel- yes
McKercher - yes
LDU - yes
Larkey - yes
FOS - yes
Hardeman - yes



Brayden George - Maybe
Wardlaw - Maybe
Duursma - Maybe
Comben - Maybe
Archer - Maybe
Whitlock - Maybe


We still need a big clean out of the deadwood. It’s looking more and more silly trading away our first round draft pick this year.

That's the 1 thing we're elite at, bringing in spuds from other clubs on big coin, long term contracts

Out: Fisher and Logue (forever)
In: Anyone

 

[DrZaius]

Just waiting for the “ImPRoveMenT from LaST yEaRs rEsULt” comments.

It's coming. Might need to wait until tomorrow or Monday but the straws will eventually be grasped at.

 

[Roosurgence]

We're going to give Clarko a cyst having to watch Hawthorn continually pump us

He brings that on himself for not setting the team up to play against their style.

They play the same way every week and every time we play them we let them play that way without any attempt to shut it down.

Constantly getting flogged by what you know is largely on the coach.

Unless you are good enough that you know you are going to win every contest playing the way we do against Hawthorn is always going to result in a flogging.

They always push forward of the ball and we never set up behind the ball to shut it down.
