Autopsy Swans Vs Carlton Round 17

[lazy77]

It was always obvious that we were short a ruck. Sinclair toils manfully but is mediocre at best, and Cameron doesn't seem highly rated by the coaching staff. Naismith is always injured. Shouldn't getting a decent ruckmen have been a priority before the season started? I get that the injuries have screwed us, but we were always going to struggle in this regard even without them.

Does Hayward have to miss each week from dead in front. Appreciate it was windy but Casboult managed to jag a couple.

Just zero confidence at the minute.

Game Day - Bloods v CarlCrims

It's Game Day, It's Game Day (Somehow I see Leonie Hazlehurst fronting Play School with the tune going in the background) Hopefully Horse, the Foreman (Blakey Snr) and all the stablehands are focused. This is the day we shovel the proverbial and not eat it. Carn the BLOODS. Let's smite the...

Ended up getting them for $5.60 under 24 points.

The Jack selection was extremely insightful. The hands are off the steering wheel, all eyes are on Mad Monday now.

Kennedy is approaching cooked status for 2020

I did say in the JPK thread that we should never write him off but sadly, he appears to have lost what little speed he had and struggles to get to contests. He has been an absolute battering ram for a decade and it looks as though it has finally taken its toll.

This IMO is one of the main reasons for our drop off this year.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Why would I come up with arguments for a position I don't hold?

Why would those you question?

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Ronke and haywood to the magoos for me

Haywood to Auskick!

Who is this Haywood person?

He’s carrying that knee, it’s obvious

 

[Olian]

So, what were our game day issues today and what would your game day response have been?

Very good question. However some people are only knowledgeable in being negative and can’t explain why there being negative and how to turn it into a positive.

Longmire should have gone man on man and not allowed the Blues a spare in defence the last quarter. Aliir should have started as ruck in the last not Reid.

 

[BruceFromBalnarring]

Haywood to Auskick!

Actually Auskick is the problem.

 

[The King!]

i would like to see less dawson mills lloyd in defence, worse case 2 of them as a maximum at one time, prefer one if jones also pushes back

i think lloyd could be more useful on a wing, Dawson kicking into the 50 and near goal more

mills has been a positive today down back so leave him there out of the 3

i liked Carlton going deep forward with their entries, created a few goals and that almost one they reviewed

we tried to chip and piddle around and hit up too much imo, wind made that less effective, but saw no adjustment

Geebers I hate our mob being bested by CFC. Every loss to them has been a dagger in my pea heart. It was not as bad the 2017 loss but it still curdles my blood.

There are few pluses to take from this. I thought Mills and Rampe were ok and a couple of the kids were ok. George was ok.

We fielded an ordinary team with a few woefully out of form and one poor bloke playing on a tank that is dry and bereft of fumes.

Kudos to former Swan Nic Newman. He played us on a break and no doubt gained some personal satisfaction.

Oh well. I have seen us have some shocking seasons. This is not in the top ten poor years. The wheel will turn though I doubt I will see it.

I'm not going to say I told you so.

But I did bloody tell you!

i think rowbottom stood out for his competitive efforts with those you mentioned, tackled hard

Jack and Kennedy need some friends in +30 club it’s just them at the moment.

He and Dawson were the two unnamed kids I thought were ok

 

[RUNVS]

Yep, too many of our players are flossing and it is confusing Jack and Kennedy.

 

[CheapCharlie]

Horrible game to watch
But still, had to expect a step backwards a some stage with this mainly young crew

 

[The King!]

How come Carlton have got so much better

Seem to have changed their style quite a bit

Players just changed things?

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

I know it is just footy, but I truly am filled with shame at being beaten by CFC.

 

[Kummerspeck]

Why would those you question?

I don't know. Why that's relevant I'm not sure given that I'm asking them questions based on them blaming the loss on the coaching.

 

[Membling]

The * was that.

Honestly.

I know we maybe do not have the personnel but feel like players are not putting in.

Ah well... time to look at draft more in depth methinks
