Autopsy Round 1 = Collingwood 69-102 Sydney

[Jekyll and Hyde]

Deep wins and shallow losses hey Fly?
I hope we don’t drown in a puddle.

 

[danielnajdek]

I bet Freo would be loving this. They got our first rounder.

 

[Ctracks]

He’s providing no dash, alarmingly

Playing really loose, not playing confidently.

He’s a different type of cat, his honesty on podcasts is a real eye opener…don’t know about his place in the game.

 

[Capital Magpie]

We lack urgency and aggression.

Seem content to wait for the ball to come to us rather than going in hard to get it.

A bit too happy with ourselves and still daydreaming about 2023.

Nick, Maynard, Howe, Cameron and Beau about the only ones to get a pass mark tonight.

I legit forgot all about Taylor Adams until I saw his s**t-eating grin at the boundary after the game! We could use some of his intensity. Ball use, no, intensity yes.

He’d have done a quad in the 3rd quarter

 

[VinnieB]

Forward line looks a mess. No space, no strong leads. Is it taking us too long to get it in there?

I think teams have worked out to come forward at us and pressure. The 1st 2 rounds has seen us handball/kick into opposition players, or they have just picked off.

 

[TradeDraft]

Cmon, seriously….does anyone here dislike Moore as much as me? lazy and uninspiring. Easily costs us 4 or 5 goals a game.

Outside of Nick and Fin when he came on they all looked Lazy and lack of Effort

 

[Run n Spread]

Look old and slow. Need to inject youth and dynamism and play with speed. Swans were just able to massage it forward by spreading the ground.
McCrae on a hiding to nothing. Came on when it was done. How's he meant to impact. Changes needed.

Go and read the comments on here then maybe you will understand my post. Unlike half the comments I’m not bashing a team that bled to win a flag. I’m embarrassed tbh.

How quick posters turn is laughable

Funny, I remember our back and forth last year when I questioned our viability at the pointy end, when we lost our mojo.

And now after two losses you're just 'meh we won the flag and won't go back to back'.

I seriously doubt the mc and the playing group shares your view.

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Final score flattered us, a lot.

should have lost by 14 goals lol

 

[YouBeauty]

There was a lack of changes on field too, where was mcreery to the midfield, mihochek to defence. Skip worth doesn't fulfill me with confidence when you hear him speak.

 

[VinnieB]

By the way, someone on here had a multi with swans players. Did it get up?

 

[Looney]

I don't think Adams will play too many games for Swans. I don't think he's a good fit for them

 

[HFF]

I agree with: “defending” too aggressively.
Taking territory is still the go to instruction heard at training.

It can’t be because the team doesn’t take territory the first two weeks.
It’s stagnant, slow and overuse.
Some of our players are just better when the game is live so to speak….not when it’s surgical.

 

[TheVillageIdiot7]

Really poor tonight. No pressure, and skills were poor. Don’t seem to have any speed or cohesion. Have to wonder about the lack of effort.

AJ right to be subbed out. Will be dropped next week. I’m a fan but he lost me tonight.

Macrae was very good when he came on. Only positive for the night.

Must lift next week because tonight was embarrassing

Wtf?!?!?
Effort was there. Absolutely no idea why you think it wasn’t?!??

Basic blame for something that wasn’t the problem.

 

[jmac70]

what’s your problem jmac? Enlighten me.

No problem. You’re happy with whatever happens.

The rest of us want to keep winning. Maybe accept we want to talk about that.

 

[manicpie]

No he wouldn’t.

Was he that bad?

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Cmon, seriously….does anyone here dislike Moore as much as me? lazy and uninspiring. Easily costs us 4 or 5 goals a game.

The turnover in the third was the worst thing I’ve ever seen

 

[McOrist]

Leaders let us down. Skill errors/slowness from Moore, Crisp, Sidebottom all led to multiple Sydney goals. Not hitting targets is killing us.

 

[Doc1763]

Life is meaningless

Life would be meaningless if we'd lost the grand final and then started like this

 

[ksardog]

I want to see MaCrae in the middle, McInnes on the forward line and Noble off half back
3 players that are busting their gut to play, over some who seem quite content with themselves.
We need to get some kids in, and Noble may have his flaws, but you can never question his run or effort, something we are lacking right now

I’m not fussed who they drop for them ( other than Naicos obviously)

 

[jmac70]

Wtf?!?!?
Effort was there. Absolutely no idea why you think it wasn’t?!??

Maybe effort is the wrong word. Maybe system is better. They had so many loose players.

We were thrashed tonight

 

[TheVillageIdiot7]

Our backline coach has a lot of work ahead of him!

Why?
What do think he could change about tonight?

 

[Mollythedolly]

Was he that bad?

Wasn’t good enough to get offered a contract so the answer is probably yes. I had him as my 2nd least preferred SSP signing, would have taken Sof ahead of him.

 

[Aussie pie]

So I’ll get on my hobby horse that I’ve been on for years. wtf has the club not drafted a key forward in forever. Cloke might have been the last one. We got a flag last year with a mid sized average forward line, am I happy about that, I’m beyond happy but now we are seeing the problem with not having one and the age of our team catching up. We are the cats from last year except they had a forward line.

Finn to stay in next week.
Dean out Frampton in.
I’m his biggest fan but AJ out and I’ll say Reef but he’s not the answer. Might as well try Begg or Steene as Freddy is injured.
Titch in and leggy out. He hasn’t sighted it this year.

Not much else we can do really. Unless they pull a shock and play someone like Tj next week but that’s not flys way.

I know they’ll be vile hatred posted about AJ because there always is how about just put him as an in or out and not get personal as some do. It’s what I hate most about this board.
