Autopsy 2023 Rd 9 Blues tease but go down again

[WalshYouLegend]

Bad + Good + Bad Again = Inconsistent

Concerned we may need some coaching oversight from a Parkin or similar to get this list to its full potential.

Out of here now.

Don’t worry too much everyone.

The sun will come up!

I’m convinced our issues are primarily confidence and mental based.
When we hit the front in the last quarter it was almost like we didn’t know what to do next.
Our players are no less skilful or fast or tall or talented as any other list.
It’s in their heads.

Taking bets on where our next win will come from

Sydney are looking very poor, just lost to Freo in Sydney for the first time in over a decade

 

[Kernafides]

Suggest you watch Q4 again and keep your eyes on Saad wandering around on his own while Jones cuts us to shreds.

Suggest you watch q1 2 and 3 Saad keeping us in it

 

[Del9Sep24]

Didn't you boycott tonight? Thought you were boycotting?

Once again the devil is in the details.

If you re-read the post again I’d say you SHOULD find the answer.

Hmmmmm Parkin … not sure.

Agreed on mentoring - even if it’s to break free from the panic response

 

[BlueBayou]

ermmmm well he was injured ...............I know really not a good enough excuse ..........

Who was injured? Hollands? First I've heard of it.

 

[Beyond Blue]

I defy anyone to watch the last 10 minutes and not throw your remote at Adam Saad.

I agree although I thought he was pretty bad all night and he is probably my favourite player. Rushed his disposal unnecessarily at times and positioning
was poor. One of the worst games he has played for us.

 

[Benaly28]

It’s entirely plausible the bloke up in the box has lost the group. As damning as that would be for everyone involved.

You might be right can’t explain how bad we’ve become.

Would you believe me if I told you they've been 'working closely' with a sports psychologist for a fair while now...

I would.
I’ve never seen a more messed up team …

Trouble is, we're playing them on a 5-day break in Sydney.

 

[BM123]

agree..something doesnt seem right.

how can we get this bad all of a sudden? it is very strange.

Even when we went 8-2 we had games where we completely stopped for a half and just barely held on.

Even against crap opposition we were lucky to hold on. This season those halves where we stopped running are now our norm.

I think most of us were expecting us to show off the goods more consistently instead of the other way around.....

 

[found object]

Fair enough 74. But was he injured. ? Why the sub.?

Didn’t see incident, but AFLapp saying ‘subbed injured’?

 

[gab213]

That's completely not the point and good for you

My apologies, what exactly was your point ? ,as far as I know the AFL oversees a game being played and whether people have built an industry around it or not, it's still only a game.

 

[Bic]

Huh?

let me vent

We went 14 point down with 4 minutes left and our guys looked absolutely done in when 3 minutes earlier they were surging.

They burned everything they had.

Not sure why some on here feel the need to make condenscending comments about people caring to much about the result. Supporters have every right to be frustrated and if someone is having a harder time with it then me I have empathy for that person. I don't feel the need make snarky comments to rub it in further. Nothing brave about doing that over a community forum.

 

[Blueballs38]

Tonight was just a repeat of most of the year. We make the same effing mistakes week in week out with no improvement.

Witches hats when the opposition wins the ball. They always have a spare man outside to hand pass to. We win the ball we hospital hand pass it, or kick it forward without looking, invariably to an opposition player.

They bring the heat and we melt, fumble uncontrollably whilst they have clean hands.

Absolutely zero lowering the eyes kicking it inside 50 for at least the first half every game.

The twin towers cant lead or seperate to save their lives when the heat is in the game.

Absolutely no pressure locking the ball into our 50 in the first half, opposition waltzes it out every effing time.

No forward pressure what so ever by our small forwards for the first half.

Basic skill errors and turn overs that cost us stupid goal.

Very low footy IQ.

Next week will be wash and repeat.

Im lost on who to blame or how to fix it.

We just seem to have a bunch of players collecting a pay check.

They just dont have the fortitude to become a winning team.

8 years of rebuilding for this shite grrrrrr

 

[Accidental genius]

windows1 i sort of believed you that we'd beat dogs...

better luck with the oz lotto numbers

 

[Blue and Blue]

Amazing that your sister who doesn't follow it that close wasn't as upset as a bunch of people who live on a Carlton forum obsessing over the team!

Haha is this satire?

No satire,
It was a response to Kho Phi that said its only a game. And it is.
Yes it's important to us and we all cope in different ways.

losing a game of football is right up there with losing someone to cancer
having life savings ripped off
insert any amount of lifes hardships ?

I hate when we lose. But typing diatribe on a forum wont help at all.

Just my opinion, carry on

 

[windows1]

Just on a side note I’m shocked at how poor Acres disposal is.

The Freo fans aren’t. Neither is their coach who didn’t fight to keep him.

 

[norway blue]

If you're on the choof just watch out for the dream police.

Surrender.

If I’m Vossy, I’m banning any around the corner shots for goal, especially if you’re right in front. And definitely not when you’re trying it on your opposite foot!
