AFL Autopsy Praccy Match v. St Kilda

[JT_the_Man]

Someone call me when it's 2027

Better yet, when we invent time travel.

 

[TheUnicorn]

Guys remember it's match sim and it doesn't mean anything

We are actually really good, Promise.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Did you watch the last month of last year?

Bro the whole team was sh*t.

Today is practice and to single out a player and say they won't improve on that month is just silly.

 

[VexOh]

So so many times, Mcgrath can just show some composure and walk the ball back for a behind due the level of pressure he's under...but he just continues to hack it out to a St Kilda player. Good lord

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Good to see some things never change and the umps still ****ing hate us

 

[JT_the_Man]

Bro the whole team was sh*t.

It's praccy.

Should we be concerned that the whole team is still pretty shit?

 

[BrunoV]

praccy match results mean nothing, but this is a team of consistantly dumb footballers, its cringe at times to watch them

Is it dumb or is it weak, lazy player who capitulate under pressure?

 

[Oraaaaazio]

+
Reid looks so clean, can see why the club rate him so much

-
We aren't very good

 

[Milanista28]

Hated that quarter

 

[Harlequin]

Merrett, Goldstein, Stringer and Reid doing laps.
Hind, Davey, Hayes, Bryan warming up

 

[MiguelM]

Good to see we are Tanking early.

Cats might derail our season before it starts!!

 

[Call Me Cake]

Should we be concerned that the whole team is still pretty s**t?

And you're 100% certain and basing that on praccy? Right? Just make that clear so everyone's clear on how your mind works from here on out.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Merrett, Goldstein, Stringer and Reid doing laps.
Hind, Davey, Hayes, Bryan warming up

Reid was one of the positives though.

 

[Oraaaaazio]

Good to see we are Tanking early.

Cats might derail our season before it starts!!

This is why we loaded up on free agency, didn't want to trade away any of the 2024 picks

 

[MightyDon]

Can we trade Andy McGrath for Jack Watts?

 

[JT_the_Man]

And you're 100% certain and basing that on praccy? Right? Just make that clear so everyone's clear on how your mind works from here on out.

Calm down bro it’s a praccy.

But yes, we’ll finish 11th.

 

[Vindicater]

Lol.

Collingwood lost to North the other day. Who gives a **** about practice matches.

No injuries.

 

[Knighta21]

Merrett, Goldstein, Stringer and Reid doing laps.
Hind, Davey, Hayes, Bryan warming up

Merrett checking his Ankle, hopefully nothing serious. Others doing laps

 

[Maddogm]

To quote a recent discussion about F1
"It's only day one of testing"

 

[Harlequin]

The wind is really strong

 

[boncer34]

Lol.

No injuries.

Teams coming off shit seasons that should be champing at the bit to prove they've improved regardless of what match it is.

 

[andleanback]

McGrath’s contract this year will be very interesting. You cannot justify giving him a long term deal right now at 700 plus

 

[dabombers]

Can still get $41 for us to win the spoon or the flag.

Perfect point. Bombers just tweaking their Top 8 finish odds to pay for the end of season footy trip.

On another point Ross Lyon footy is so suffocating. If any other teams this year play this type of footy against us it may be a bit of a problem.

Would like to see a bit more clean pick ups and disposals from loose ground balls. Clean hands.

Though not concerned we will improve.

It’s the way we are playing not the score. Visually there’s no change in method or execution when they’re under pressure. Collingwood also had most of their side out. Behaviors in some players are the same, in preseason I’m looking for have players with glaring holes in their game improved. The answer with a lot is no. If they’re making the same mistakes now in match sim how will they go when the real stuff starts.
Eg mcgrath heppell hack kicks out of the 50
Midfielders kicking shallow centralized entries that leave you exposed on the rebound
Forwards playing from behind.

 

[boncer34]

Getting sucked into the contest a lot.
