Autopsy Round 3, 2022: Hawks go down to the Blues

[hfc70]

We are closer to 14 than the Baggers are to 17.

 

[Bedi]

I liked the move bringing Sicily forward in the final minute. Shame Weitering got there just in time

 

[Bedi]

The backline was brilliant after quarter time. To concede 47 entries and only let them score 4.7 was immense.

If we could fix the midfield we would be a genuinely good team this year. Unfortunately, that is probably a 1-2 year project

We've been talking about it all off season and today we really saw it click.

 

[Fluro Boots]

Nothing but pride for me after that fight back. Was lucky enough to be at the port game last week but today was great. Lots would’ve folded but we had a real crack and nearly got it. We’ll trouble some sides this year and kick on thereafter

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

From another club board.

Is anyone else annoyed kinda that the hawks win 4 flags in 8 years, sack their legendary coach burn a bunch of draft picks and yet still nearly start this year 3-0. Like can you not just be shit for 30 years like the rest of us

 

[kazzooka]

Titch had 23 a goal (goal assist and 7 score involvements which were equal most on ground) went at 70% had 12 contested possies and 6 clearances.

If that's a disappointing game..

Half his usual output.

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Half his usual output.

for only 23 touches his game was very good.

Looked like he moved alot better today tbh (But had less CBAs, 12.)

 

[CHUBBSS]

I already feel this loss will feel like a win tomorrow, the whole team showed so much in the fight back, with a few more skilled players to come back and match fitness into the seniors and kids returning we are a genuine finals side - not to get ahead of ourselves but if we can be consistent across each game we will challenge any side.

What is so impressive about all the new guys is the amount of one on ones they win or half the contest.

Still a work in progress but the midfield balance is being worked through, if Reeves could play 75-85% of game time by 2024 it would make the Nash play a bit more effective and not rob him of his own game, but his done well and shown he can plug the ruck need if someone goes down - but Jai and Nash are to important now for defending clearances against, already think they are ahead of most for defensive strength at stoppages, would almost play jai/Nash/jager/ward as our starting midfield with titch leading /Worpel/bramble/long as the next team (lynch and reeves to rotate ruck)

This would give better balance and wingard, McDonald, Moore and day to come through at different stoppages

Finn’s problem is that he’s just too slow - and that makes him a plodder, unfortunately.
He caused two critical turnovers in the last quarter simply because of his sluggish movement.

Slow? now you're just taking the piss.

Also noticed he trailed in on a fair few short hit ups today

Where can you see the games CBAs ?

Thanks

Yes, I’ve noticed this too. This needs to improve or he’ll be yet another Hawk son of a gun failure.

Go to stats (AFL app) and there should be an open there, if not you can add an option through i think top right in the stats area.
CBAs for today: Reeves 20 Ward 19!! O'Meara 15 Worps 13 Titch 12 Newc 11 Nash 10* (* ruck also) Wingard 3 Howe 1.

100% agree about him being too slow.

It's more with his decision making and disposal not being quick enough.

Not sure if he hasn't picked up the pace of AFL yet or whether this is just the way he will always be.

Yep, ZIP to do with how fast he sprints from point a to point b.

I think it is more that he doesn't have the burst speed. He can run at a good speed over long distances but doesn't have that extra gear

edit; beaten by SYL

 

[Mojo]

Pretty sure it evened out with the,way the umps treated Harry McKay.
Good game.
You guys are impressive. Don't know how you seem to skip the rebuild stage. No 9 killed us all day.
See you in the finals I guess.

Blasphemy. Learn his name.

That was poor, extremely.

But there were a few moments like this for a fair few players for us today.

Every week so far, at the end of the game I think Moore’s had a good game, until I check his stats, upon which I upgrade it to excellent.

This week: 21 disposals, 9 marks, 2.1. For a young small forward, that’s exceptional. Again.
