Autopsy Round 10 vs Bulldogs, Mars Stadium, Saturday 21st May, 1:45pm AEST

[SandyToes]

I don’t get why we don’t throw ever Ainsworth in the centre when teams get on a roll or we need to mix things up.

Quick, tough and an absolute competitor who at the least will be ferocious in there.

No one works harder
You just don't realise it unless you're actually at the ground because the TV is so focussed

We would have been 80 points down now a few years ago. This team is a very different beast even when playing poorly.

 

[Scotty_222]

We know why he's picked every week
But god he gets so little of the pill
Not going to lose anything by running him as tag in the last quarter to keep the damage down through the middle

Yeah well he hasn’t stopped the hbs linking up the play so get him playing to his strengths

Was about to post just this
Sign of an evolving team with belief
One of my boys is a Tottenham supporter and accuses the other one who supports Liverpool of getting"lucky wins"
They do because good teams find a way to stay in the contest
If we can keep this under 20 would be a great effort

14 points down, no Rory, no Farrar and only 3 rotations. As bad as we've been playing and some gone missing we aren't that far away. Not saying we'll win but we aren't lying down

If the midfield could just break even this quarter we could pinch a win

Anderson is having an absolute shocker. The difference between his good and bad games is very large, but I suppose that's a sign of maturity. Then again, he's not alone. At least he's getting it. Rowell has also been struggling a heap.

Thank goodness for Spitta. Fortunate bonus is that he looks fresh after spending the first 6 weeks in as a back pocket rather than a bash and crash inside mid.

Touk has also been barely been sighted. Frustrating.

The real issue is clearly all our mids are beaten. Even Miller isn’t touching the ball. Can’t do much with that. Dogs just better.

 

[Supersuns]

Just aren't on the same level as the Dogs, simple as that.

 

[richcogs]

Rowell has been given one of the biggest bathes I have ever seen. Why are they persisting with him in the middle?

 

[Scotty_222]

Swallow needs to stay in the middle for the rest of the year lol

 

[Supersuns]

Izak having another great game

 

[Emerald Sun]

Rankine is so good

If that hold on Chol was on a bloke in blue it would be a free -.- Of course it resulted in a Bont goal.

Good to see that we’re still fighting hard though. That old tired narrative of not having four quarters in us can finally be shed. I’ve seen four quarters of effort almost every game this year now. It’s going to be a great season if this effort is there each week from here on out.

 

[Young_Guns]

Collins has been a rock since Rory went down

 

[thewizardmelon]

It feels like the Dees game, where we are hanging tough but just being out skilled slightly and by calmer heads.

This really is a game we could have won, though.

 

[Supersuns]

Cmonnnnnnn

 

[Emerald Sun]

We're still in this

Now - Izaak in the middle over Rowell would be how I’d throw the magnets!

 

[thewizardmelon]

Damn won the center clearance too as planned.

 

[Supersuns]

Damn

 

[Emerald Sun]

Still can

Rosas, Jeffreys, Rankine all good today. The future of the club is really bright. This one could have gone either way if a few one percenters drop the other way.

 

[Big Red Machine]

The boobirds can say what they want.

We never said die.

Love this club
