AFL Autopsy RND 14: Chewed Up and Spat Out By the Cats

We should be applying for a priority pick

Has Brad ever defeated Chris?

I believe so while he was at North.

The outcome of the game was expected given the team we put out, but it was still disappointing to completely capitulate in the last quarter.

You know the injury situation is dire when you are debuting two mid season draftees who are clearly not ready for AFL football. Blakiston tried but clearly struggled against Neale and although May was quiet I saw some good signs - he is absolutely worth persisting with.

Perhaps more than any game this season we got a good indication of which of the young guys will make it and which won’t. Roberts, Johnson and Clarke all look comfortable at the level and have very bright futures. Kako is tracking ok but probably needs a spell at some point. I’m not sure about Day Wicks and I think Lual may have had his papers stamped.

Brad and Chris have coached against each other 16 times, 15 of those were during the H&A season of which Brad has won 4 and Chris 11. The last one was a final, which Brad won.

I’d be perfectly happy never playing these campaigners again.

We've get then again down there in 8 weeks. The fixture is shite.

Surprised about the final. Not surprised with the lopsided results head to head. It will only get more lopsided. Thank you.

So many turnovers from our senior players is so telling in where we’re at. Wright cant handball for shit either

Not after Tracey kicks 17 on Thursday

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this but we conceded 107 points due to our turnovers last night.

Would not 100% disagree but I also think some of the usual suspects just make dumb decisions.
McGrath is a decent defender but not the smartest ball user and I think being VC he tries to play beyond his capabilities. Parish has been nowhere for 3 seasons now.
Setterfield was one of our best and he does a job each week but he is basically a C grade skill wise.
Goldstein is what he is. The backup who is doing his best and played well but also had mistakes.
It is what it is. I suspect it will not be a lot better until we turn a few more players over and keep brining young players through until we find the right mix.
As for Smith. When you get 40 touches no one mentions turnovers I guess.

I think McGrath is a very effective player in a very good side. In a good side that is locked in, his run and carry has more outlets and his opponent needs less attention. But in a poor side he is a headless chook.

And we get to play Geelong again in Round 22...........

 

[supportyourteam]

Every fking time. You can set your watch to it.

Hourglass perhaps. Round 6 last year.

 

[Cold Sober]

There is always next week, be strong, do as I do, drink and wait for for for for, maybe.
I still love supporting Essendon, 67 yrs old so I've had the pleasures of Premierships. BUT HEY.
This Big Footy shit is mentally inspiring, some posters have no idea, some think they do, some wish they did, THEN,
You have me, not much I dont know about anything football.
Ranked back of the bus in supercoach and 20 behind in my tipping comps.
Have a good night everyone, enjoy life but, dont let bullshit get in the way of fact.

Real inanimate rod performance by Parish.

I'm still a fan but that's one of the few times I can remember a game going stretches where I forgot he was playing.
