Autopsy 2024 Rd 19 Blues survive a Kangaroo scare

[Blue1980]

Brisbane will lose again, and more than once

Whenever anyone gets the idea that a side is just going to win every game after a batch of form, it rarely happens. And seemingly not at all this season.

I thought that was one of the most entertaining games of the year and North played really well. 5 day break will be a worry.

is getting a game. Just a mile off the level of AFL.

Gov back next week hopefully. Our most important player.

Great to see Motlop back. Lethal.

So many injury worries out of the game though and form!! What happened to it?

We were building into the season so we'll 4 weeks ago. Now battling to a win against North. And just playing sloppy football.

A few weeks to turn it around but another loss could prove catastrophic... we'd get smashed by the Hawks on today's form.

This is what happened to our form

Durdin should not have played today - body didn’t seem right. Pretty tough when you are playing for a list spot.
Might not have been many alternatives after it was determined Kemp needed to play VFL no matter what.

Kemp looked good in the 2’s.

Our mids were epic - so his 2nd half was light work. Taken off at 3QT with Martin.

I really do not like what I've seen the last 3 weeks whatsoever. And I have no idea where it's come from. Hoping it's a lull. Worried it's something more. Next couple of weeks will put it in to context.

PS - Drop Cez please. Been nowhere near it in the midfield and he ain't a backman. Yes, too good to be playing in reserves. But he's also too much of a passenger to play in the ones currently. Drop him now, play him in to form and get him back for finals.

He was soft yesterday, just doesn’t commit to the contest like Walsh or our bulls.

I wouldn’t drop him at this stage.

Give him Ollie’s wing.

Reckon Vossy ripped into them at HT. His voice is very hoarse in the presser.

myblueroan , are you going to let NavySteel speak about you like that?

Hoarse?
Of course!
Or should that be

Neigh!

I am the world's biggest Weitering fan, but thought he was very ordinary today.

Couldn't get his positioning right and was this usual intercepting threat.

Hasn't been right since he hurt his leg recently.

Had a big pad on that quad. Probably hindered his movement a little

I don’t what their status is but Weitering Durdin Charlie TDK Kennedy Walsh Cerra Acres all look injured or are struggling for some reason me??

 

[CCurnow3votes]

IF TDK hadn’t come back on I don’t think we win that game.

Hewett is currently a more effective player than Walsh, by some margin.

The MC seem to have favourites.

Walsh struggling to get clear.

We need a lift from he & Cerra in the coming weeks.

The bulls are getting the job done.

100% unfortunately dropping game to gws and dogs probably doesn’t leave a big enough gap between us and the rest of the top 4 to rest players atm

certainly looks like a mature age recruit.

JUH from the dogs is getting a bit like that. Can feel you have him covered but still ends up with 4 goals.

Charlie needs to work on his timing in his marking attempts - often runs under the ball.

 

[Pinnell]

Walsh to Ollie’s wing. He’s getting beat up inside. Trying his guts out, but not getting any clear ball. Look after him Vossy, cos he ain’t looking after himself

Think we'll find this on Friday night if Blake doesn't get up. They'll move Walsh to the wing & play Cezz back in the guts. Also Boydy & Gov likely back so likely no half back roll next week

 

[Benaly28]

We did have 27-18 shots which is a positive

[Accidental genius]

We got the 4 points and as others have said burn the tape and run!

No point scrounging around for positives. We did not play well this game and the previous 2 games.

After listening to Voss’ post game press conference I have realised what the issue was.

He was at the wrong game and totally watching a different game.

I said to my wife before the game North have a chance because the game is at Marvel and their form has been good. I also said thank goodness it’s Carlton’s last game at bloody Marvel because Carlton struggle there. Just realised we have 2 more games there, one this Friday against her mob (Port). Now I’m back to being nervous.

 

[AB_Blue]

Besides a couple of brain fades with some short kicks, I thought Ollie played his best game in 2 months

Same with Carroll who gets way too much criticism for a player of his age and experience.

Carroll played a better game than Walsh and Cerra….

Small forwards did really well….kept it in the game.

EH form has slumped considerably

It’s frustrating that they have to be told to increase the pressure.

Did they think they could just stroll into Marvel and do a training run?

 

[Monty1978]

Went to the game yesterday and felt our team was out of balance due to necessity … when you have Kennedy , cerra in the backline with durd playing first game …. Walsh struggling , tdk off the ground and mckay in the ruck makes it alot harder to blow teams away and we are out of form.

Smalls were good mots fogs and owies ..
felt when tdk came back on is when we structured up well and won the game.
Durdin dropped atleast 5/6 marks , if he clunked them we would be saying something dif … kemp wouldn’t have done much better.

Ollie some critical mistakes by foot but geez he has lots of guts
Cottrell saad and Newman good
Crippa best for mine and Charlie as frustrating as he is won us the game.
Won’t be watching that game on the replay and looking forward to Friday night
