Autopsy Round 14, 2025: Positives and Negatives vs Carlton

[Elite Pete]

Flynn’s stats are very similar to his last year at the Giants in 2023.

I looked at his last 9 games at the Giants
. Appeared to break even in about 3, got dominated in about 5 of them including games against Mason Cox

Tyrell Dewar gets this week rising star nom

Exciting Eagle soars to land Rising Star nomination

Tyrell Dewar is the Telstra AFL Rising Star nominee for round 14

I swear in the first qtr of the gameday thread some assclown said he should never play AFL again. The lift doesn't go to the top of the building with some of our comrades.

 

[eaglesnutcase]

Jack Williams better than a record breaking Brownlow medalist?

I guess in your world nobody breaks records.JW
All the wise men on here shaking their heads but nobody can say why not.
He doesn’t have to be a Cripps clone.
He’s bigger,probably a better mark and probably a longer kick. Doesn’t have the hardness and the tank but if he was prepared to bust his arse who knows.
We have a lot of big blokes but no big midfielders, surely all you short sighted BFers can see it’s an outside the box conversation worth having!

You were obviously quite impressed with his first quarter and more?

He did have some very poor efforts in the first quarter (not alone in this) and his defensive work can be pretty ordinary.

No surprises though that BF over react in game day threads though

 

[cottoneyeYeo]

yeah don't think flynny is a body issue

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

yeah don't think flynny is a body issue

His heart is willing but his body is absolute junk

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

Positive: picked up a free ticket courtesy of AsterixTheGaul.

Negative: nobody else from BigFooty was there.

Positive: a nice lady in the row behind called Joyce thought I looked lonely so she bought me a beer.

Joyce is a bloody good sort. Keys was meant to be there and yes, the weekend for me and family was lost supporting the missus running over at Rotto.

Staying in unit 324 - is this an omen of things to come?

After that first quarter I’m surprised my tv is still intact!

A bit like Hough I was a late out due to illness unfortunately

Was all set to go but had to make a last minute decision not to

Sick of this Darcy Cameron call, he is way to old for our group. No retires please

So there I was, all on my own. Like the Eagles midfield - very little experience, very little support, very little impact…

 

[EagleEgo]

Forcing players to have a week off is a horrid idea sorry. If they are fit and warrant selection they should play. It would compromise the competition.
The bye is just something all teams need to learn how to deal with. Of course the simplest option is to just have a mid season bye round like they did originally so all teams are on the exact same footing but we know what a publicity whore the AFL machine is, it would kill them to be out of the spotlight for a week.

Do you think forcing the whole team to have a week off is not forcing players to have a week off?

 

[Alesana]

This pisses me off. Harley has been dubiously pinged for running through the protected area at least a couple of times this year. Now Harley takes a mark, just his opponent behind him, and three Carlton players are allowed to run past him, you'd argue at least two are unopposed, and it's silence from the Umipre.

What would you do? Who are you signing? Trading for? Drafting?

I yelled 50 for this. No-one cared.

Anyone but retiree Cameron. Livingstone is a better option

 

[KERRPOW]

Flynn such an oaf. Nic Nat copped the “fat” tag most of his late career but won 2 AA’s in that period. Flynn actually looks “fatter” and not only is he shite, he also moves like that container ship that blocked the suez canal

Even those that didnt rate nicnat would have him back in a heartbeat now.

Flynn looks like a midget version of sean darcy out there

 

[WCEswift]

I look forward to seeing mccarthy in the dry rebounding more aggressively and maybe some mid minutes

 

[BSD]

Negative: how far back are our skills and fitness teams if Tom McCarthy comes in on debut and secures BOG for us? 31 disposals at 94% is a pipe dream for most of this side.

Hope we take a long, hard look at these areas over the offseason and send a few blokes packing. If I were these clowns I would be very bloody nervous for Monday morning and half ex

Nathan Buckley OTC hit the nail on the head. Too many fat cats in the team and players only interested in money shouldn't be offered long term contracts. Didn't say it but that description fits Oscar.

 

[BSD]

I yelled 50 for this. No-one cared.

Same crap decision when Bo got flattened right in front of the ump and didn't get a free kick, but when one of our players reacted the ump gave a free kick to that Carlton player which resulted in a goal. Where is the consistency in that.
Oscar having his jumper pulled whilst trying to lead for a mark and one of the umpires was only 2 meters away and he just stood there like a statue and did nothing. That umpire proved one thing, statues are only there for pigeons to crap on.
Does the club complain to or provide a report to the AFL about all the crap non decisions that hurt us,
The free kick tally was 18-19.

 

[Bender_]

Oh boy the Bo vs McGovern no free/free is AFL umpiring summed up in a nutshell.

Surely that's been picked up on any one of the 30 footy shows, podcasts, radio segments, peep-shows, in-house, outhouse, dog house etc? Right guys, at least one?

 

[rebel23]

Positives... Harry Edwards... mate you've made me eat my words and are going great guns!
McCarthy... Brilliant
Dewar(second half only)
Billiams
Sometimes Baker sometimes Graham sometimes Harley and hewey
Hall cameo

Negatives... Allen, Ryan, Hunt, Duggan,Maric, Kelly, Flynn, Cripps(although he tried), jilliams , Ginbey, Brock (soo bad) , sometimes Harley sometimes hewey

 

[eaglesnutcase]

Those two Brock flops were horrifying.
Is that the end of him?
Once maybe but twice?
