Autopsy Round 11: Hawks audition for top 4 draft pick, v Freo

[Strapping Young Lad]

Yuck.

 

[Slysh]

Will Day is going to be a star

18 disposals at 89%

Just needs some more confidence.

 

[Gliggin]

Play ALL the kids!

 

[checkraiseulite]

pathetic. lot of our players look finished

 

[Off The Couch]

I’ve got nothing positive to say so I’m not saying anything

 

[WWSD]

Great idea playing the two rucks plus bringing in an extra tall in Nash in the wet conditions.

 

[Slysh]

Big questions need to be asked of our midfield

Mitchell, O'meara, Worpel, Shiels should never be getting killed at the contest. Yet it is happening very often.

 

[Flamin Joe]

I don't know how it's possible to get flogged by 16 points but we did it.

 

[seysearles]

Whats scares me is that I cant really fault the endeavour of the players. I feel like everyone was committed to the contest and gave it their everything. Our skills just completely fell apart under their pressure. Also Freo are a pretty average outfit. They've struggled to score all season but somehow they managed to do so easily against us.

Not really sure where to go from here actually. New game plan? Not sure.

Edit: Are we robbing Peter to pay Paul putting Sicily in the backline? He is potentially a very potent KPF. Surely Obrien or Nash play the nullifying defender and Sicily at FF is a more dangerous setup.

 

[dcutter]

And....to the draft we go.

And i bloody hope so. Will Day is our best player at the moment.

 

[lethalselbow]

Not the worst thing in the world to lose that. We're pretenders, at best, this season.

Play the kids. Check out the list. See who is a keeper.

Sicily staying forward? Hmmm....

 

[hamohawk1]

Is the draft as compromised and bad as everyone says? If so, god what a s**t year to be s**t.

 

[Spursfan]

USELESS CAMPAIGNERS!!!

 

[Slysh]

Shout out to the Dockers though, they are really starting to click and that midfield is looking very exciting.

We were not good but we lost to a solid team.

 

[rei154]

Gonna post my positive a bit later.
We need another series of changes... lots of them. So many players should be in strife in the fall out from this one. Seriously hard to watch game.

 

[Breustiful]

Channelling this bloke tonight.

 

[JoeHawk]

Bring on the draft

 

[SA HAWK]

Players outplayed by kids.

Coach outcoached by a rookie.

Just a dogs breakfast all around.

 

[Viddiot]

Hawks 2020:

 

[hardway]

Too many fragile players. Players afraid to put their body on the line. Hodge has more courage in a finger nail compared to what some of these guys give.

 

[WWSD]

Surely the O’Brien experiment is now over? If he continues to be the future centre half forward, we’re ****ed.

2020
8 games - 5 goals

 

[Jethro!]

No energy again. Boy we're hard to watch this year.

 

[Hodginator]

Recon the game plan is more to blame than the personnel

We looked so much better when we take the game on through the middle. The over handballing is painful to watch and I’m a bit concerned the footy instincts will be coached out of the likes of Scrim, Worpel and Day.

 

[Jaeger]

Worst 3 goal loss ever.

Time to start experimenting.

 

[Spursfan]

Shout out to the Dockers though, they are really starting to click and that midfield is looking very exciting.

They had half a dozen good players out too
