Autopsy 2022 Round 19 Blues shaken but not stirred

[TD2010]

Cripps, please pull your finger out and learn to play the percentages. Infuriating to watch.

His lack of maturity in this part of his game is reflected in the team atm.

 

[The Fantom]

When Walsh and Weitering went off injured, I screamed the top of the house down.

Then Walsh rose like Lazarus but when he got caught holding the ball, I said “You’re not God son, not yet anyway”

What an amazing effort.

Saad

I wanna comment but I don't know how......

Anyone giving Crippa votes today has major issues with 21 other players.

He looked just as ordinary on tv as I’m sure he did at the ground…

The stats totally lie in his case today (apart from clangers)…

Gotta truckload of credits in the bank, the Skip, but a mare is a mare.

 

[luke livingston seagull]

Did he do a hammy on the lap?

Think the lap was celebrating getting through the game without pinging one…

He was bad but credit when he stepped up from 50m to slot that goal.

 

[FRUMPY]

Setterfield could be such an asset if he gets his body/mind right

He is like LOB and cotter's, not consistent and their bad games are really bad games. Not sure they ever will be consistent but was a very good game from setters.

I don't think many people are critical of their potential.

They had a shocker though.

Can't say it enough. They're young. They need heavy rotation to maintain elite pressure.

Their craft will improve and the goals will come.

For now, it's all about pressure.

Plenty are critical, though. And fair enough.

More, I'm concerned a little about expectation for this season. We looked top 4 quality for about a month and a half off the back of a fairly soft draw and injuries yet to have to take their toll, as well as being a surprise packet and opposition not really being able to plan for us properly. People got their hopes up, and there's nothing quite so crushing as seeing your hope dashed upon the rocks.

Expecting those three players to function at a similar level - for example - to Lachie Schultz (24), Travis Colyer (30), Sam Switkowski (25), Bailey Banfield (24) and Michael Fredricks (22) is unrealistic.

34 touches at 55%DE says it all. Tries to do way too much at times. Needs to keep it simple and get the better ball users involved.

Not bitter at all.
Just saying that 50 metre penalty was an absolute brain fade at a critical moment from a senior player that pretty much sealed their fate.
It reminded me of the Short one that gave the Suns a flicker a few weeks back. Thankfully none of our players have been so undisciplined this season.

yes it was..the intent was for crippas hand but we'll take that!

 

[Rustica]

If there is a clean bill of health over the week.

With the possible ins next week, it’ll be the best 22 since round 2 or 3

 

[morningbrown]

Really flat first half followed by a very good second half. Got the job done which is all that matters.

Saad, Walsh, Plow, Cotts, Cez and Doc all excellent.

Setters really impressed me and keeps his spot.

Pitto back will be very handy against a dominant ruckman in Reilly O Brien

 

[Arr0w]

Really liking Cottrell's progression, still think he is the biggest improver of the season

 

[CaptainCharisma]

Was a bit ugly early but got the job done. All that matters this stage of the season.
Think it’s a positive for the fitness staff we gassed them out by late in the 3rd.

Do the same to Adelaide next week, wrap up finals and keep us undefeated against the bottom 6 like good teams do.

Then we can start cracking the whips for a big last 3 with a sniff of September around the corner.

Positive vibes

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Still haven't lost 2 games in a row this season

Our rebound/bounce back factor under Vossy has been really impressive , surprising and delightful.

Really stared to close the gap between our best and worst performances, and getting some real constant continuity both individually and as a team.

Can't really ask much more (realistically) as a supporter than that

 

[La Dispute]

34 touches at 55%DE says it all. Tries to do way too much at times. Needs to keep it simple and get the better ball users involved.

He’s also missing easy handballs as well.

Feel Cripps is now at the point he doesn’t no what to do and can’t quite read whether he is supposed to pull the trigger on a big play or involve his teammates and it’s affecting his game big time.

 

[jimsta10]

how good was barracks today

 

[norway blue]

Rumour is Gov is still going on his victory lap.

Gov did his job and got through for mine .

Walsh goes off, Charlie snaps a goal, the cheer for Walsh coming back on were massive, even Charlie clapped and called out worpa

I thought the momentum for us changed once Walshy and Weiters came back on, the crowd got involved and we took control of the game!! Loved it, was a real lift for the side
