Autopsy 2022 Rd 7 Blues down the Roos by 50

[thegreatbeast]

Saad was massive. No idea how but would love to see Carroll stay in the team next week even if Hewett is fit.

Fisher and O'Brien were class with the ball. Martin was very good overhead.

Cripps and Walsh were monsters.

Charlie and Harry should have had a couple more each.

Very happy with that result after a shaky first half.

Umpiring was extremely questionable.

how did stock hurt his shoulder?

Smeshing

 

[zeggie]

How good is Saad

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Saad, worth every bit of what we paid.

Bar pick 10

 

[Zlatan]

how did stock hurt his shoulder?

Maybe when he buried Thomas?

Good win. As expected against a rabble like North.

We do tend to go a bit Hollywood when we are up by a decent margin.

Carroll looks a bloody beauty.

Just need to take care of Adelaide and we are 5-2 then have a massive 2 weeks of GWS & Sydney.

Lot to be said about how we finally crushed a team, and a bogey team, no less.

Even more to be said about Saad, Cripps, Young, Harry and for me too, some deserved loved for Plow.

Last, but absolutely not least, how about Jack ******* Carroll on debut if you don't mind!

Happy weekend baggers!!!

Didn't feel like we crushed them.

I mean, I'll take a 50pt win any day, but at the half time break they were well and truly in that game. Glad we put them away in the third, but I'll feel better when sides like North don't even give a yelp against us, rather than rocking up thinking "This is one we can pinch".

Still some troubling moments in there. Long kicks to outnumbered contests, dodgy handballs to players under pressure.

Definitely outweighed by the good though. Corridor play, plenty of pressure, Carroll. Tick, tick, tick. A lot more hunger for the contest too, plenty of physicality.

Good opportunity to take the next step against the Crows in a week.

Top win, ticked all the boxes.

Lewis, Carroll....might have found a couple.

Pressure great, forwards had space & we sat a few North boys on their arses.

Good win boys.

I see what you did there

 

[Malifice]

What up with a stocker? Arm in a sling

Dunno yet. He got it hurting one of them for like the 5th time.

Articulate and a mongrel. Hope its not too serious. I like what he brings to the backline.

 

[branedotorg]

Docherty's decision making and ball use is back to his best. Some of his inboard kicks just broke the field open.

Just makes you feel safe when the ball is in his hands.

Just stoked to see some inboard kicks, feels like the past few weeks we've been too scared to try and predictably go long down the line everytime

Newnes would be very nervous

 

[I bleed Blue]

Little bit shakey in the 2nd qtr. Other than dominated them. Should have won by more.

Cripps is the best player in the comp and will win the browlow.

Doc

Harry and Charlie easily the best forward duo in the comp. This is what we always hoped for.

Saad is a jet.

My man Carrols debut

Fisher was very damaging through the middle tonight.

8 marks to Young and good ball use as well!

Arn Baggers

 

[Rustica]

Shout out to LOB, he was very good tonight.

Should never been dropped

 

[ferrisb]

For those of you playing at home...

 

[teknodeejay]

How many votes for Cripps so far this year? Between 10-15 for sure.

 

[Kramer1]

Just as I predicted in the pre-match thread, was never in doubt.

Err...yes it was...

 

[GapInIkonPark]

Someone wrote in the preview thread that Carroll would have a Walker-like debut. Nailed it.

Can’t see him out unless injury or rested.

 

[Markyd]

Watching JSOS interview, Mirkov is a beast!

Good win boys.

Don’t go down that rabbit hole

• Was worried TDK would be targeted by Goldy. He was but survived.
• Last quarter we should of buried them more, have concerns about our inability to continue with it.
• When was the last time we kicked 110+
• Cripps... 3 votes
• Walsh’s best game for the year
• Still need more from our small forwards and mids in terms of scoring contribution
• Go Blues

 

[AndyWalkersGirl]

A lot to like.

Devo for Stocker. Hope he is ok, not just physically.

 

[I bleed Blue]

Hasn't been at the club long but Youngs hit on that little turd that has sniped our younger players for years

Loved his game tonight. Was good to see some mongrel and intercept marking

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Saad was close if not bog.. he was everywhere

BOG me

 

[Blue__Balls]

Newnes would be very nervous

Easy changes for next week. Hewett for Newnes, Williams for Stocker (assuming the former is recovered and the latter is injured).
