Autopsy Positives and Negatives vs Hawthorn

[HoneyBadger35]

We’re going back to back.

+ Another gutsy fight back. When will people stop doubting us? Played the entire second half down a man on the bench, in the sheeting rain, at the G. Ran over the top of the Hawks.
+ Jack Darling, unreal. Five goals and brought the winner to ground.
+ Shuey. Best fourth quarter he’s played, and that’s saying something given the Crows game.
+ Nic Nat’s back. Managed minutes, had to push through in the late stages of the fourth because of where the game was. He gives us an enormous lift.
+ Jetta. A few head scratchers but ballsy decision to go in the final minute and it paid off.
+ Liam Ryan, exceptional.
+ Nelson and Shep worked their tails off.
+ In: Barrass, McGovern

- JK’s goal streak is snapped
- Another game with three quarters and an enormous let down. Could have done us in the end. Needs addressing.
- Hutchings injury. That consecutive game list claims another victim, top five all done in the last three weeks.
- Rioli and Cameron quiet on a day you’d assume would suit them better than some others.

There’s some criticisms warranted but let the praise flow, that’s yet another gutsy statement win. If we make top four, I wouldn’t think any final would be beyond us.

Its just a massive win, well done.
Shuey was inspirational

 

[woosha24]

So who fronts the tribunal this week? Early on I heard it was Allen?

 

[woosha24]

- Hutchings injury. That consecutive game list claims another victim, top five all done in the last three weeks.

What and how bad?

 

[Natho]

Positives
- We won at the G in the rain.
- Fought and scrapped after the below average 3rd term.
- nic got through the game
- allen being so versatile is proving very handy
- shuey is a freak

Negatives
- 20mins of sleeping
- hutch injured

Good teams win ugly sometimes so shut the * up. We cant win by 8 goals every week and looks like millionaires

 

[WestCoast05]

POSITIVES
- a win in the wet
- a win at the G
- a win without Gov and Barrass
- a win in the wet, at the G, without Gov and Barrass
- 4 points
- afl site gave us 'gutsy win' instead of 'eagles unimpressive in victory'
- Darling's back


BIGGEST POSITIVE - NIC NAT'S BACK ALRIGHT!

 

[Karim Abdul Yeo]

Won 3 quarters of footy. Broke the hoodoo against hawks at the G and now sitting third. I was hoping for a draw which would have basically made our poor percentage redundant for the rest of the season. Nic Nat improves our team. Should be full strength next week with TB and Gov back. Keep cameron for one more game in normal conditions, that was horrible playing conditions.

 

[wadeallday]

+ were terrible for most of the game but Redden and Yeo showed up for the last quarter

 

[Max zero]

+ won
+ going 3rd 2nd is in reach
+ Shuey superman

- prob didn't deserve it but who cares
- Hutchings hammy
- Kennedy streak over

 

[garlic munchers]

+

NN and Rioli blowing out some cobwebs.
McGovern fresh for the Derby.
We are the worlds best clutch side.
GWS & Adelaide results.

-
None.... this was always going to be tough (1st time I haven't placed a bet on a WC game this year because it was absolutely a raffle given the conditions).

 

[Biggie]

Positive

Fig turned his TV off and we won.

Never ever switch it back on ol’ mate

Ever.

 

[bombard]

I'll have more positives later, but for now:

 

[woosha24]

Cmon guys, dont cocktease the people who have to watch on FTA.

What happened to Hutch? How bad?

 

[kerr87]

Anyone team who is missing their CHB and FB would struggle to win.

We won.

 

[kerr87]

Cmon guys, dont cocktease the people who have to watch on FTA.

What happened to Hutch? How bad?

Hammy. Not sure how serious. Taken off at half time.

 

[InTheWings]

+ winning in ugly in those conditions
+ Nic getting through
+ Shuey stepping up
+ backs tried their guts out whilst missing Barrass and Gov
+ small forwards in the first half
+ Darling 5 goals

- 3rd quarter lapse
- Hutch's hammy

 

[woosha24]

Hammy. Not sure how serious. Taken off at half time.

s**t. Hope its precautionary.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

What and how bad?

Hammy in the first half.

That list was correct three weeks ago. * this.

 

[InTheWings]

Also... Oscar Allen's mark was every bit as good and gutsy as Nick Reiwoldts (in my opinion)

 

[TassieEagle]

+
Gutsy win, when we are close we win
Darling kicking another bag
NN getting through unscathed
A win in the wet at the G.

-
JKs streak. Started and stopped vs Hawthorn at the G
That 3rd quarter was as bad as we have played all year
Hutch injury
Gaffs kick and hopes are back
Hurns kick ins (this has been brewing for a while) he is so very predictable. I much prefer Jetta taking kick ins.

 

[kerr87]

Negative. Shuey had no support.

Yeo was well held.

Redden Gaff ineffective.

Sheed was ok.

Hutch kept impey quiet. His injury brought hawks back into the game.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

+ Oscar Allen’s Riewoldt-esque mark in the fourth.
- The Riewoldt led commentary team not giving a * about it, or any other West Coast highlights for that matter.

 

[Brave Sir Robin]

Hammy in the first half.

That list was correct three weeks ago. **** this.

Holy s**t, somebody said earlier this week that Hutchings better be careful. He didn't listen.

 

[Ok Boomer]

Third quarter was bad but I thought it was more Hawthorn lifting than us dropping off

 

[twinkletoes#17]

+ Darling the wet weather specialist
+ Shuey
+ Shep saved a few goals
+ Allen, seems to work into a defensive role. Shaky in the 1st, was huge in the last
+ Nelson did some good stuff
+ Gutsy win

- free kick Hawks, HOW MANY IN THEIR 50? Gotta be 15 at least. At least 10 of them bullshit and not given to us when the shoe was on the other foot
- Hutch injury
- Schoey out marked easily multiple times
- Duggan looked out of sorts
