AFL Autopsy Preseason Game 1: Defeated by the Blues

[VelvetSledge]

Don’t mind 2m Peter

 

[andleanback]

Hind looks great of half back

 

[84859300]

I was super critical of Hind's disposal in his 2nds time with us - looks to have improved greatly!

This feed is so stuttery

I expect they'll upload a replay to the website later, hopefully that's better.

 

[Pweter]

Early signs.

mckay is huge!! we aint got anyone to go with that type..its an issue

Draper everywhere

Zerrett takcing like a boss

Caldwell looks great, Cahill slow but crafty enough to make it work

No matter how tall we are, we always put it on tippas head, never change

Love how we still run and gun but dev knew when to slow it up

Frang still letting balls over the back since forever

The first bolded point is a concern personnel wise, the 2nd and 3rd are a concern as they can be resolved but seemingly never will be.

Tippa to jones ... Jones goal Essendon 19 carltank 15

 

[JT_the_Man]

Jones goal.

 

[rumply]

Jones, hubba hubba

 

[84859300]

H Jones mark and kick from 45 - goal

Awesome build up from B50 - through sereval pairs of hands - Wall run and bounce - great delivery with mark out front. Good seperation bewteen Jones and defender.

 

[Cup_o_Jobe]

Obviously a makeshift defense being trialed for us with no recognized KPD. Stewart looks lost at sea and is getting mauled by McKay. Jones looks the goods for us up forward. Promising.

 

[Foreverdon]

Carlton 21 Essendon 19

 

[eth-dog]

Stewart is not a defender

 

[84859300]

P Dow marks 30 out - poor effort to spoil by Ham - goal

C 21 E 19 28 min 1st Q

 

[84859300]

Perkins on

 

[faible]

First glimpse of Perkins, he's coming off a HFF.

 

[Foreverdon]

Siren just beat Jones

 

[JT_the_Man]

Perkins sidestep, oh my.

Hit Jones on the lead, siren went just before he took it though.

21-19 Carlton’s way.

 

[Foreverdon]

 

[VelvetSledge]

Perkins maaaaaaht

 

[faible]

Waterman another strong contest in the middle under a high ball, stood up in a tackle and got it out to a teammate. Definitely looks a goer.

Perkins with a nice gather in traffic, some run and carry, then a beautiful kick to a leading Jones on the siren.

Quarter time; ESS 19 - CAR 21

gets around with a walker nowadays but Perkins made that look embarrassingly easy. Such balance

 

[11kgm]

Did i miss anything stupid work meeting went over time missed the first quarter

 

[JT_the_Man]

Ok, one quarter down, my thoughts.

Dev started on absolute fire.

If Guelfi continues like this, he simply has to play round 1. He’s been in everything.

Ham has been great.

Hind is absolutely lightning, good skills as well. Lock him in round 1.

Cahill has caught my eye a couple of times.

Jones worked into the game well as the quarter went on.

Tippa still Tippa.

Franga a couple of nice intercepts.

Waterman should get a spot.
