Autopsy Roast & Toast R15 vs St Kilda & changes for Gold Coast R16

[jc12]

He was not, remember that game clearly, got towelled up, as weak as Ryan was today. What helped CCJ that game was it poured down during the game, slowed things downs so he could get the odd tackle and hand pass. Also he played in the ruck all game, Ryan had less time sharing it with chol and ccj.

You said it right there at least ccj got involved in conditions that weren't meant to be for a big man. He got a touch at least. Sampson just wasn't up to it. Those are facts. Would.love for him to prove me wrong. But I doubt he will

 

[Spacedog]

We need to move Baker into the guts like the GWS game. I don't care who we move out for him, atleast he brings some energy. Play Mansell down back in Bakers position.

Move Shedda to half back and Baker to the midfield

 

[Spagman]

******* diabolical

 

[natooo]

Very disappointing night, lots of the team either out of form or just not hungry enough for the contest. I liked the addition of Samson allowing us to play a genuine second ruck but just the wrong weather to trial it in. Looked to tall and slow throughout the game. We need nank back in the team asap and allow one of the developing rucks to play second fiddle rather than the bulk load

there seems to be no connection between the back half and the forward half. We’re just constantly going back and trying to switch the ball for no reward. Are we starting to feel the effects of losing to many assistants and only replacing them from within rather than adding to our knowledge from outside the club?

 

[Cotcho]

Our arrogance at the trading table the last few years has caught up with us. Getting * all for the players that walked out was just dumb. No way near good enough this year. The other top 4 teams have all
Improved and we’ve gone backwards

 

[Roachy1980]

It was fantastic while it lasted.
I am glad I seen them win the last three out of four premierships.
It is hard to take watching the boys putting out that rubbish tonight.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

We need Towner back he’d ******* sort it!

 

[juss]

We were so bad it’s hard come to any conclusions.

Era not over yet... we have too many good players .

Time is catching them though. Dusty just turned 30, Edwards, Cotchin, Riewoldt, Houli, Astbury, Grimes, Lynch all getting on and will decline too. We are a dangerously aging side.

Time for a refresh, build the next tilt around Bolton, Balta, Baker, CCJ, and hope we've uncovered some others. Need to hit the draft hard over the next 2-3 years and trade for guys that will be around for 5-10 years.

 

[jc12]

Okay think that's all the melts out of my system. Wait no Theres more. SACK DIMMA

 

[Marcel Proust]

The afl app sends a notification.

WATCH THE INCIDENT. BALTA DOES KNEE.

How tacky

 

[Tiger Sam]

Has our game-plan changed on purpose or are we just not able to get our usual game going? There's nothing wrong with changing to a new play style and trying to stay a step ahead of the competition but maybe don't completely change the way you play in the middle of the year

Furious tackling never gets old, we've lost that now.

 

[Makeshft_Mauler]

Jesus Balta acl and broad meniscus. 2021 is a f*n horror show

confirmed?

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Losing to Gold Coast next week?

Do a deal.
Pick 3 and suns win.

Our arrogance at the trading table the last few years has caught up with us. Getting fu** all for the players that walked out was just dumb. No way near good enough this year. The other top 4 teams have all

rule changes
****ed our poo dots

 

[Spacedog]

Furious tackling never gets old, we've lost that now.

The run and carry out of the backline is completely gone as well

Agree , don't forget lambert is 29 , broad 29 , prestia 29 next year Lynch also 29 etc , 75% of our team is probably 28 or older. Bad age profile

 

[Thrasher97]

Ccj actually touched the ball. I remember that game he actually got involved in some ok chains of play. Sampson was involved in nothing

Can't compare, CCJ played in a team that won the game easily, the whole team played good that game except maybe a few, it'd be easy to say who actually played ok in this match.

 

[Waca Jr]

Ironic thing is he caused soldo's knee injury this time last year, now he does one himself

Yep unfortunately he has old man legs now, he can ping a hammy at a drop of a hat these days which is a shame.

That fat campaigner Hawkins caused Soldo's knee injury not Balta

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

How bad are the injuries to Balta, Broad and Vlastuin? Balta is clearly gone for a while.

What happened to Balta?

 

[jc12]

Furious tackling never gets old, we've lost that now.

So odd why we changed our style. Tackling and pressure should always be part of the game plan no matter what

 

[69vintage]

We need Towner back he’d ******* sort it!

He'll finishus off next week .

[Forensi Tiger]

So to summarise what went wrong in a
nutshell

it was Dimma
it was Dimma
It was the assistants
It was the match committee
It was our talls
It was our smalls
It was the leadership
It was our young guys
It was our hunger
It was our arrogance
It was our skills
It was our ball use inside 50
It was our chip kicks
It was our long bombs
It was not selecting players who have all looked ordinary many times

 

[juss]

Agree , don't forget lambert is 29 , broad 29 , prestia 29 next year Lynch also 29 etc , 75% of our team is probably 28 or older. Bad age profile

Yep, we've got to be realistic. It's time to make some tough calls.

 

[Hoos]

What happened to Balta?

ACL.
