Autopsy Round 1 - Deja Vu

[krakouers]

 

[Chadwiko]

Has to be said - umpiring was atrocious.

Now that's out of the way, too many of our players were lazy today. Hawks were more willing to run and create space and provide linkup options, while we were extremely stagnant.

That was the difference today.

Disappointing.

 

[RHLK]

On a positive note: well done, Curtis Taylor

[Joshen]

Xerri, Goldy, CCJ.

Pick two.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Roast for Caprain Liability, ball movement from the backline, s**t skills and Land of the Giants

 

[koshari]

goldie valient effort late in the game in leu of no other tall forwards standing up, we have a player in the hornet, and LMac prolly the difference by a "honerable loss" and a flogging.

 

[Joshen]

McDonald was phenomenal. Glad to see him back to 2020 form.

Stevo needs an extended spell in the vfl.

 

[koshari]

Xerri, Goldy, CCJ.

Pick two.

xerrie for me , CCJ not a forward, ( having said that larky never looked like one today either.)

 

[big_e]

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way.

 

[amaz199]

fades out in the first and 2nd when we were dominant.

Thats it. We were absolutely horrid after that.

 

[Joshen]

To give away a free kick when your first game team mate is having a shot on goal is criminal. Made worse when you were just elevated to the leadership group.

 

[Only Forwards]

Going to be a rough first half of the year.

 

[Themanbun]

Perfect thread title.

Jy, LDU, Goldy, Horne, LMac, Hall - please leave the room while we berate everyone else.

 

[Joshen]

Zurhaar and Stephenson gave us absolute doughnuts.

 

[Le Grille]

Perfect thread title.

Jy, LDU, Goldy, Horne, LMac, Hall - please leave the room while we berate everyone else.

Jy a little lucky there

 

[The Lone Latic]

Curtis was excellent, busted a gut and looked dangerous. JHF looks so good, how long until he plays full time midfield? LDU started hit early but faded as per usual. Goldy, good as always. LMac did what he can.

Xerri and CCJ, do not look like AFL quality forwards. They are tall but have little sense of forward craft or leading patterns. Ditch one of them and either go small or bring in Comben who knows how to play forward.

Sleevo was putrid. TT not great either.

Alot of work to do if this is what we are serving up round 1 against a very beatable opponent

 

[Ry009]

Need to punch myself in the plums ten times to get the taste of today out of my system.

 

[remfan101]

That team was never going to cut it, you could see this coming a mile away. Really ****ing frustrating.

 

[Kangaroos techno]

Do that to the 3 ruck game plan too.

Out: CCJ, Sleevo, McKay
In: Walker, Curtis, Polec, skills, heart

 

[Cyber_punk]

What is the record now, 5-35 in our last 40 matches?

If we don't get 6 wins this year surely gotta get a priority pick

 

[DuckYeah]

Dumbest ******* decision to play goldy, xerri and CCJ. What a ******* arsehat amateur decision that is. We should have ******* won that game. Skills were ******* poor, simple marking, simple ******* kicks, simple handballs. All over the place. Backline is ****ed, forward line couldnt clunk a mark.

Only positive was JHF’s endeavour, LMAC wearing his heart on his sleeve and Halls ball use.

Sleevo, TT, CZ, CT were absolute ******* passengers today. Piss poor from them

 

[Joshen]

Almost felt like the playing group were frustrated.

 

[Joshen]

At least we know Horne-Francis is going to be a beast. Heck, I would just about put him in our top five players already. Wants to win more than anyone else on the field.

Weren't they being flogged fitness wise according to preseason reports? Hasn't shown up in round 1
