Autopsy Round 9, 2023 : Hawks burnt by Demons

[Strapping Young Lad]

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Basic skill errors and disposal horrible early.

Came to play in the third which was desperately needed.

Mitchell, Day, Meek and Newk can all hold their head high.


Go at it.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

How good seeing Frenchy and Weddle's first goals in succession.

Is it too late to join the Seamus Mitchell mafia?

I want in ...

 

[Sixpence]

Could have been worse. Half decent second half.

 

[OnWardnUpWard]

Wingard and Morrison are so consistent.

 

[wafj]

Seamus surely due for rising star nom

Only Day turned up in the first half; second much better; Sadly, Wingard and Morrison should be given a long spell...

What could have been aa complete debacle was salvaged somewhat

 

[grumbleguts]

Good second half effort. Who would have predicted that finishing scoreline at half time?

 

[Off The Couch]

First half awful
Second good

 

[Hodginator]

At least the 3rd quarter was good?

 

[TheExtractorFactor]

100+ was on in that first quarter, at least we chipped away in the second half. They're really good, we aren't. On to the next.

 

[Yuley95]

Under 10 goals probably not a bad outcome in the end. Go hawks!

Morrison - No More
Wingard- Play at box hill if you don’t care
Kosi - I can’t do it anymore

In a game I’d rather erase from my memory - this 5 minute period is something I hope I can look back on in 15 years and say s**t I saw them both kick their first goals back to back

 

[kenneje]

Newk, Day, Sicily and Mitchell all very good.

Mackenzie is looking great. Some time at Box Hill did him well.

A few senior players let us down massively today. There's a lot of pressure on them obviously, but they need to do a hell of a lot better.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Mitchell in just his 5th game. Our best.

Not a huge amount more to like. Both ends of the ground are playing very poorly. Turnovers incredibly frustrating to watch. We are in desperate need of better ball users.

 

[Denver Day Lewis]

Continued where we left off from last week. No real desire, whether through tired legs or lack of motivation, basic skill errors and poor decision making.

But the third quarter showed signs.
Apparently more than one good quarter is needed these days.

Umpiring continues to be an appallingly low standard. Inconsistent at best. Embarrassingly incompetent at worst. So often wrong you wonder what game they’re watching and whether she, I mean they, know the rules at all.

 

[HeHateMe]

Mitchell after 5 games is already one of our top 12 players. He is the player we have been crying out for to free up Hardwick.

 

[Bugs1977]

Oh well. Looking on the bright side at least we're not North or West Coast.

 

[macdaddio]

Geez we really struggle to kick a score, with Lewis back you’d think with a big target we’d score more.

 

[kenneje]

Morrison - No More
Wingard- Play at box hill if you don’t care
Kosi - I can’t do it anymore

I thought Kosi was pretty good today. Tried hard and generally impacted contests positively.

 

[MinerBoy]

Effort was there all day. Demons early pressure rattled us and we didn't know how to move the ball at all. Just kept giving the ball back.

Did well to not get blown away with goals against but had no ability to score ourselves.

Whether they dropped the intensity or we just started using the ball better (both maybe) we can be pleased how we at least fought it out and let's be honest, we lost by a fair bit less than what most would have expected.

They scored 103 - that's ok for the inside 50s they were getting. We kicked 7 -> 5 in one quarter. 1 or less in every other quarter. That's the story.

 

[Max Powers]

Congrats to Weddle and Mackenzie on their first goals.
Third quarter was great the other 3 pretty easily forgettable.
Need more games into Butler and Blanck (depending on his injury).
Thought Bramble was good coming on today.
Meek was great in the ruck.
Wee Baby Seamus goes alright, has a great future.

 

[MinerBoy]

At least the 3rd quarter was good?

3rd quarter specialists

 

[Lickmesocks]

Morrison and Wingard must be omitted if we are serious as a club and make some sort of stand.
