Autopsy Autopsy vs Collingwood aka the Great Pain Robbery

[ApplecrossWC]

Deep down you just knew the loss was coming. Even with a lot of new players it's the same old thing.

 

[Harryboy4]

Coming home on the train packed with filth..they can’t help telling me why North lost….FFS

 

[Sphynx]

Will be some horrible review watching tomorrow (especially the last qtr) for the following senior players:
Fisher
Mcdonald
Tucker
Scott
Zero composure from them. Multiple panicked dump kicks to the opposition killed us.

+ Zurhaar.

That missed handball on break in the last few minutes.

 

[DuckYeah]

Cannot believe they sub out WilPil.

There was probably a reason, he probably indicated being tight in hammstrings or something. There is no way that happens without a reason

 

[Whisper in the Wind]

Why would you sub Phillips off? Coming off a quarter time break, he was rested, we only needed to break even for the first 7-10 minutes. Daicos had four disposals and they kicked three goals in that time. This loss is on Clarko.

 

[Samsquanch]

Anyone legitimately surprised with the umpiring?

It's Collingwood FFS.

Me.

Not so much for what they did but by how blatantly it was done.

 

[patmatcat]

Geez, I knew Clarko didn't rate Will Phillips, but I didn't realise he hated him that much

 

[Caracas]

Something that really saddens me is you could see how much LDU and Zurhaar wanted it. But will they want to stick around after games like that? Where they give everything an its ripped away at the final minute because we aren't one of the big teams and thus aren't supposed to get late free kicks. Why wouldn't they go to a team that does get that kind of umpiring love?

We got a late free kick last week, didn’t we? If we keep playing like this, LDU and Zurhaar will be staying.

We didn’t lose that because of missed umpiring calls. There are always missed calls both ways.
We lost because our midfield is currently unable to maintain the rage for a whole game, and because we dropped the Daicos tag.
It was a good display. We knew when we were 50+ points up that there was going to be a comeback.
The boys will learn from it, and be better for it.
We have a similar opportunity against a depleted Melbourne next week.

I mean yes & no.

The tone of the game in the first half was vastly different to the 2nd. Not that it has to be 1:1 but when the free kick differential was more or less even we were up by nearly 10 goals. Then Daicos gets 5 free kicks in less than a half of footy and the whole collingwood team has 3x as many and surprise surprise we are a 10 goal worse team.

Is the team to blame? Yes partially, but were we really playing so vastly different in the 2nd half that warrants such a start contrast in umpiring?

I’m usually pretty critical of our performances but we played bloody well today and probably deserved to win by a few goals (not 10 however)

 

[Roostorm]

Nup lm sick of these media clowns glossing over issues with this game…

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

Heartbreaking. Knew the comeback was coming but it didn't make it any easier to lose a game, one we clearly should have won, by a solitary point. It's the hope that kills ya

Remember, North Big Footy, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.

He is a pies sycophant. Wouldn’t worry about it.

 

[Hatchy1992]

I am super proud of the boys. Super performance today. That's the standard.

 

[Spud11]

Unfortunately I was out all day, checked the scores, slowly saw it whittled away. Am I the only one who hates rewatching a loss even by it’s a point, but will watch every second of a 1 point win?
Eh. Will watch the highlights.

Looks like we kicked really well, then the inevitable rabbits in headlights combined with maggot-reaming caused a record (and heart) breaking loss, true North style.

Nevertheless I am really, really proud of the boys and this ship is turning. There’s enough there to work with and I hope they see that and don’t drop their heads for the rest of the year.

Looking forward to coming across to Melbz in a couple weeks to see a game and get down to Arden street. I feel reinvigorated as a fan.

Lousy behaviour there. Dog-act.

 

[Amicalola]

I hope so.

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

I actually feel so bad for the boys

This is good for the boys. They got their win last week, a loss by 1pt to the reigning premiers should have them hungry for the next win.

 

[northbergs]

Last week, we get the call against Yeo. This week, we’re denied a 50 metre penalty. Swings and roundabouts anyone. Unfortunately, Fisher blew it. He completely choked with that kick in.

Or did Scott not push hard enough to mark it? At the ground, looked like LDU went nuts at him.

Didn’t see any of the game, out all day with the family but did watch a replay of the 50 incident.

100 percent should’ve been a 50 but Bailey Scott

quickly playing on while the umpire looked like he was deciding what to do was not smart.

Shouldn’t matter as the umpire should call him back and award the 50 but I think he gave the umpire an out before he had to make a decision. A more game aware player doesn’t do that.

[travelli]

Bloody amazing game from your boys.

Got to admit that mark from Bobby was alright. I particularly liked how he nailed the landing. That dude might be the most balanced human I have ever seen.

 

[danj]

pick 1 walking into this team
Next year we see the big jump

Not subbing out pink or shiels was the dumbest decision

IMO the mistake was to play Stephenson as sub, he should have been played in the first half then bring Ford on as the sub. I really don’t think Stevo is contributing enough and the miss on goal or failure to set up another player who had a better chance was a pivotal point in the game.

Overall though we have to be happy with the development and the endeavour of the team much to look forward to

Let me assure you…if you were there as I was, surrounded by Collingwood fans and now travelling home with them on the train, you wouldn’t feel so fantastic

 

[CBSlogger]

Flat AF, but did we just find an actual player in Brynn?

14 disp, 6 marks and a goal.

Looks up to it to me.
