Autopsy 2023 Rd 6 Misfiring Blues drop their bundle again

[SkyhorseTamer]

Anyone who blames Voss for this loss or worse wants him fired is a bum.

The game plan was perfectly fine up until the half time.

I accuse the playing group (except.the kids like Jesse and Ollie obviously and First Gamer Cincy) of being big headed, lazy and complacent in that second half, and they need a bloody good hard look at themselves.

The playing group culture at this club stinks, and has probably ever since Parko retired and handed the reigns to Britts.

We cannot afford to keep changing coaches every 3 years or so.

Let's back Voss the Boss in and let him turn this mediocre culture around.

This is an opinion of all time.

 

[athensblue]

That was sarcasm, he was lapping up a 5 minute chat with Steele

Then I take that back
All should be

 

[De Iulio2Wiggins]

Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight

 

[Juddrockz]

Wow Cripps looks devastated

Yeah he probably knows we'll be out of the 8 and on a downhill spiral these past few weeks. Losing Doc has knocked the stuffing out of us.

29 disposals for….30 metres gained. Incredible really. Not sure I have ever seen that before.

 

[Salt Lake Cities]

Unfortunately we have to admit to ourselves that we are just a very average footy team… again

Not sure if it’s the players or the coach, maybe both. That was genuinely awful to watch

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Yeah & nah, can’t blame the coach for some of the s**t our blokes do on a regular basis.

McKay, Silvagni, Newman, Fisher and co done some ridiculous stuff today and often do it.

So the coaches should be working that into their frameworks.

The saints had 15 players last year that people said the same about. INCLUDING MASON ****ING WOOD. It's all coaching.

 

[Red Bull]

Wow Cripps looks devastated

How many times can he carry this club on his back …

 

[No1Suspect]

We're horrifically slow, our skills are disgraceful, we panic and have an extremely low iq group of players, no system going inside 50 at all, ability to stop opposition transition is crap, fwds arent great, backs look a shadow of themselves.

We've absolutely regressed but we've also got a void that hasnt been filled from Dow Honey Philp LoB Kemp Stocker Cuningham players that we've either got nothing from or havent got anywhere near the level required.

 

[SirSanchez]

Firstly. Well done Cincotta. Great first game. Congrats!

Weiters? What has happened to him? A shadow of his former self.

H. It’s all between the ears. Get a routine. Practice it and stick to it.

Fish. Time to go. Don’t care if you’re Crippas mate. You don’t impact games whatsoever. No right peg either (to a fault)

LOB. Man oh man. For all the talk of this so called elite kick. Another that needs to go. Immediately.

Jack. Absolutely inexcusable miss from 20m in front. You killed the game and your teammates with that miss.
Game shifted at that point and it was all over.

Small forwards. If our strategy is to just repeatedly bomb it long to our two tall forwards. Then why the f* are the smalls at their feet crumbing. Only one goal all game from crumbing by durds. Otherwise they were missing all game.

Game style. Voss. Sort it out real f*ing quick. We are tired sick and tired of no plan B or C. Aints made one key change to the mid from defence and changed the game. Why can’t we?

We sit 7th on the ladder but for how long. The game style does not inspire belief or confidence moving forward.

 

[Rustica]

We don’t need a rebuild or to sack the coach again lol

The personnel is fine. The core group of players are very good.

We need to change the game plan. It’s dreadful.

It’s so slow. Barely gives the forwards a chance. The F50 is always too crowded and takes a difficult contested mark to have a scoring shot.

We have completely stopped with 45 kicks and barley if ever use the corridor.

You cant change the gameplan almost qtr way through the season. Theyve been training this the whole season. They are ****ed. Another wasted season it seems like

 

[prisoner777]

So bad. Love Voss but don’t think he’s the answer, in saying that I don’t know who would take his spot.. hopefully drop a few players for next week.

To borrow Damo's Sliding Doors segment, what if....we had taken Ross Lyon instead?

 

[james Dean]

George Hewett 29 disposals for….30 metres gained. Incredible really. Not sure I have ever seen that before.

Wtf has happened to him. This time last year he looked like the recruit of the year.

Now he should be dropped

 

[BlueBayou]

Saints are a pretty organised unit, just wouldn’t let us through.

When we did, poor skills had it coming straight back out.

Backs tried (liked Cincotta), mids racked up cricket stats, forwards a dogs breakfast.

Not much else positive to add.

Do you think they should get negative stats for going backwards?

I love Walshy, but he missed many taargets today, and he was not Robinson Crusoe

 

[Bostonian]

How can you come off a fresh pre season the second with a new coaching group, and have this prevalence of "system" for entering the forward 50. It's quite extraordinary

Because we hired dregs.

We were hiring well after the decent coaches had been snapped up and we ended up with the uninspiring left overs.

 

[TheKing101]

Just garbage. Kicking is still awful, our smalls couldn’t crumb a schnitzel, no defensive pressure in the forward half. Game plan is no good. Prioritise pressure forwards, a medium forward and a mid/forward with pace. Big clean out still needed.

Further off than we all thought. Disappointing

Saad was the bigger loss for us, was probably leading our B and F up until he got injured.

 

[BlueBayou]

because they bloody go backwards all the time....!!

what happened to the run, the forward handballs, the dash of last year??

 

[Blueballs38]

We are slow and predictable, we don’t take our chances, we let the opposition out of their defensive 50 with zero pressure, our small forwards are clueless to the drop of the ball, we cannot stick a tackle to save our lives, our link up play is abysmal, we let the opposition set up behind the play the way they want, zero quick ball movement, we cannot execute under pressure, we cannot find space and so get in each other’s way in congestion, we have no flair or finesse, our coach mollycoddles the players, we keep on giving LOB chances to do f’all, our forward 50 entries and the leading of our 2 that’s right 2 Coleman medalists is mediocre at best and the IQ of a peanut at worst, we literally have more than enough cattle but we play like an under 7 foot side, get ball kick or hand pass to no body.

Ross the boss comes in and turns this ****ing rabble into a well disciplined, cohesive, super fit running side in one ****ing off season! Even with all their injuries! Voss has had two preseasons and has gone backwards. We are a ****ing Joke!

Did I miss anything?

 

[prisoner777]

Not sure Voss is up to a Plan B and C.

 

[Gez1969]

Coach. Simple

 

[heatleystandend]

Voss is a concern. If he thinks Kennedy can play half back on Butler then it is time to genuinely question the direction he is taking the team.

Again, the club over rates the list. They appointed him because they thought good assistants and his passion would over be enough for this list. What a joke. Now they are stuck because we can’t sack another coach.

 

[52Goals4inGranny]

Stuck with him now. Very concerning the response from the players after what happened at the end of last year.

Baffling decision to go the way we did but too late now to change. We need to get him help.

Ross the boss got Stkilda flying, AND they are missing the KING boy. Imagine us without Charlie.

Very very disappointing. Why would you play slow with two of the best key forwards in the league. Why is our forward line so bad? Why do they keep missing goals from directly in front. What the hell are the coaches telling the players?

Disaster in the making here. Needs to be sorted out FAST.

Any game we win is by less than 10 points. This game plan is ****ed! Horrific in all facets

 

[BM123]

Extremely slow and mostly pea-hearted team. Move on one of our big mids and get some run and carry into our midfield please. Defensively and offensively we just plod around aimlessly.

We'd rather concede 50-100 metres kicking back wards instead of trying to take the opposition on.
