AFL Autopsy Preseason Game 1: Defeated by the Blues

[HollyValentine]

Drop Wright

 

[eth-dog]

Seems to be drifting up the ground, not sure if it's a coaching directive or not, but would have thought you'd prefer a Ridley or Francis doing that instead of Stewart.

Protesting because he's a forward?

 

[JT_the_Man]

Wright nearly misses a freebie on the siren, but has his second. Down 5 goals at 3QT.

I was impressed with Cox that quarter, along with a lot of our usual suspects such as Merrett and Smith. Caldwell had some good moments.

 

[84859300]

Front on contact free to 2MP 20 out - goal

Get ready for the comeback

C80 - E 50

Q3 siren sounds

Crowds stream off to the bars for the last beers and pies. Umpires adjust their mics and ask how the look on the big screen

 

[The Prosecutor]

 

[84859300]

For those reading from home - the affect of the over the mark 50m penalty that occurred about 20/25 out from our FB, had Stewart brought upto the wing area to take the kick.

Kick ended up 25 out and marked by us.

No doubt this rule will result in scoring oportunities more often than not

 

[84859300]

The dream February match up is on.

Saad v Walla

 

[84859300]

Francis back on the ground - moving freely

 

[Big Slam]

Laverde looks as lost down back as Stewart does.

 

[84859300]

Waterman back on

 

[Big Slam]

Waterman has a fair rig on him.

 

[Foreverdon]

Waterman goal

 

[Big Slam]

Can roost it as well...

 

[84859300]

Head high tackle to Waterman - shot form 50
Goal - straight as a Mark Williams arrow

C 81 - E 56 Q4 5 min

 

[JT_the_Man]

Waterman kicks his second, can’t say I’ve seen him on the field since early second quarter until that play.

 

[rumply]

Damn, Waterman can boot the ball, looks a fair unit.

 

[The Dustbin]

Hard to believe how much Saad has gone backwards in three months.

 

[HollyValentine]

All our “big” guys are so soft

 

[84859300]

Bryan gets exposed deep and Carlton ruch takes big uncontested mark 20 out - goal

C 81 - E 56

Q4 7 mins

 

[rumply]

Waterman again, sign him up.

 

[Foreverdon]

Waterman 3rd goal

 

[HollyValentine]

Waterman with another good lead/goal makes it 3

 

[JT_the_Man]

Sign Waterman.

That’s number 3.

 

[84859300]

From B50 Waterman marks and goals

Nice assist from H Jones too. Looks great
