Autopsy Round 8, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Essendon

[MeltMan]

Give this overused unfunny joke a rest? Or...
Make the autopsy thread 12 hours early...

 

[Bender_]

Positive: Dyson Heppell's blood test for performance enhancing drugs.

WTF is this

WTF is this

My attempt to beat HoneyBadger35 to making the thread, as i don't think im watching live today.

 

[MeltMan]

Lets see if we can Nostradam arse some conclusions.

+s
it was a good game, hard fought, and well deserved win for the winner.
Hough was outstanding. The collection on the run then breaking that blokes ankles.
Harvey debut!
Darling keeping his formline, wasn't crazy on the scoreboard, but great pressure.
Harley, i mean, what else do you even need to say?
Bailey finally had his kicking boots on to go with a great pack grab.
TK dishing off inside instead of going for goal.
Everyone getting to wave the scaves.

-s
That 1 Hamstring to that one guy.
Could have really taken our chances to up the scoreboard pressure in the 2nd.
Liam still not quite at his best, but did some nice things.
Missing targets in the back half cost ua.

Bailey finally had his kicking boots on to go with a great pack grab.

Only real blemish.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Gee.

 

[KERRPOW]

Christ.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Cost ourselves the win with whatever happened on the Waterman shot.

Hell of a fight.

Analysis later, nice to just be a normal competitive team again.

**** me, how many dumb decisions to shoot our selves in the foot.

I’m feeling some feelings folks. Some good, some bad. Plenty of feelings.

 

[THE A5]

Yeo and longy’s injuries

 

[boondy]

I hope Cripps feels tough

loses us a game of footy".

 

[Lia]

Won't happen but Cripps should be benched for a week.

Fuming about the Long injury which was because of a sloppy tackle by a crab.

 

[boondy]

Hough towelled up Stringer

 

[stallon]

Cant be too upset with a 1 goal loss to the Bombers who have been quite good lately. A few things we could blame, but Yeo is the most unfortunate one, Yeo out there in the last qtr with the extra on the bench too would have been handy

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Yeo

Cripps you **** idiot.

Drop Ryan, sheed.

Watermelon is on Carey levels

Loss hurts but its chalk and cheese compared to last year.

 

[ziad]

Injuries are very sad. Good men.
We made errors but were against a better team in reality.

A huge step up from last year with second half character.
J Williams is progressing as is Ginbey on a slow burn
Interesting to ponder how we will look with Allen back and a few others including a fit Ryan.

 

[boondy]

Waterman looks injured too

 

[Sammy J]

We win that if Yeo was healthy

 

[HoneyBadger35]

TK immense. Ginbey and JWill were awesome.

heck.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Positives - Playing the game out and never giving up
Negatives - Ryan and Sheed both playing without proving they deserve it and can contribute like every other player by being fit enough and can contribute in the 2024 game plan. Simpson, very poor.
Cripps.
Ledwards.
Yeo injured.
Long injured, but to be honest I don't think he's very good. Tries hard but has barely any skill.

 

[TY24]

Positive: we played well enough that I’m blaming the umpires

Negative: not to play into the meme but Cripps should be dropped for that late free kick. Unacceptable from a senior player.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Edwards offers us nothing.

[ReidBetweenTheLines]

Negatives

• Yeo injury. Gutted
• Cripps tough guy act from a piss weak player cost us a draw, possibly win
• Ryan, Sheed and Edward’s to the WAFL. Not good enough.
• The cramps to key players like Waterman and Reid. Get the pickle juice in at 3/4 time if you have to.
• Petrucelle will always be an athlete masquerading as a footballer. Decisions and skills are poor.

Positives

• Kept the game close. Could have been blown away in the 2nd quarter
• Reid only cramp and not a hamstring
• Ginbey and Williams stepped up
• a win would be nice, but we aren’t a finals team, so a higher draft pick is the result tonight. Silver lining
