Autopsy Big Big Loss - Giants over Freo by 9 points in Sydney

[Dockeroo]

We’re within touching distance if being contenders but we’re an Alex Pearce short

How can anyone say we are contenders with a straight face with players like Banfield game time?

When are we going to drop the good bloke mentality at the club and get ruthless with dropping players that simply aren’t at this level of football?

Look on the bright side, Banfield will not be best 23 next year.

This is the first full season of midfield from Young and Sharp. I'm nit surprised they are running out of legs.

I was happy with Voss' marking and effort to split a contest.

I want Amiss and Johnson to practice their set shot routine and goal kicking on the run respectively.

Banfield was playing for GWS all day.

Sturt was super clean by hand and foot.

Too many moments where we were kicking inside fifty where the mark was dropped or tackled before the kick that immediately ended up as scores against.

We were lucky to be so close I think, even with Amiss scoring 0.1 from three of his shots at goal, we were very accurate from our set shots.

I find a very frustrating character. Freo generally very frustrating to watch this season. High highs and lows lows.

Amiss misses proved costly today.
Banfield miss + being an absolute unco tool
NOD miss
Johnson misses

The club deciding it was a good idea to rush Pearce back after a few weeks off with a broken arm to play Melbourne who have no major key forwards has absolutely bottled us too.

100% that re-injured arm to Pearce is on the match committee. Another weeks rest and he’d playing….

Have to beat Port and one of Hawks, Dogs or Blues has to lose either this week or next.

We played good I thought .. GWS are a good side. Alex plays and we win, no way he gives Hogan that much space all game. It happened from the first bounce so anyone saying Cox looks injured and that’s why he was giving Jesse so much space you have to be kidding.

Bailey should never wear the jumper again. Pathetic performance.
Drizzy to play a full game next week. He was exciting when he came on.
Reidy was great I thought. Hope he plays next week.

Just need some results to go our way this week and I think we will beat Port next week.

Looked like a hammy to Switta in that last tackle, just to rub salt in the wound

The real salt in the wound will be watching Hogan lead gws to their maiden flag.

 

[sumavich]

Man, it's so ****ing hard. The team is so ****ing close, so damn ****ing close but we're 5% off every good team and cant cover for Pearce and Treacy. Kicked 14 goals missing Treacy when I honestly though we'd struggle to kick 10.

You want to be positive, we arent playing bad footy but possibly now missing finals is going to be a gutpunch.

Sigh

You are kidding yourself if you think we are close. Not enough depth, and not enough mongrel.
And a coach that really hasn't ever been successful.
Its the ninthmantle way. So disappointing

Billy Frampton is a premiership player. There’s two or three players on every single premiership team that wouldn’t get a game on other teams

We need the Blues to drop a game, Hawks won't + we need to beat Port.

Particularly the last two weeks we played shit footy, for the most part you can’t say that today which makes it hurt that much ****ing more

Tom Greenes second half

27d, 10 clearances. (7 clearances in the last term)

Young

6d. But hey, let's play him deep, instead of tagging the guy who is killing us in the middle

I said at three quarter time. Leaders step up here.

Unsurprisingly (except Brayshaw) they failed....again

Make the decision to sub out Fyfe , who had kept him check to a point even more baffling

Or one of those teams lose both games

I don't give a **** about Frampton. Banfield is a flipping unco amateur.

No he hadn't. Green went nuts in the third quarter and he benefits from our turnovers going forward as he's trailing the play.

If we win next week, we need one of Hawthorn, Dogs or Carlton to drop a match

If we do not win next week, we need one of those clubs to drop both matches

Or hope the Blues lose their next two.

I don’t know how you can argue we’re not close. These teams have two years and 50+ games experience on us and are the most in form teams in the comp and we push them right to the end missing our three most important players.

Are GWS no where near it because it took a 50m penalty to get a full strength experienced over the line at home?

Same as at the start of the year, possible but unlikely ... does it matter? Same old, same old.

NOD miss
Johnson misses

Whilst amiss misses are incredibly frustrating he’s actually one of the few im more than happy to give excuses for

Ridiculous young and inexperienced for the role he’s playing and still can make so e of the best kpd ok second rate.

Aldo gets monstered with no help from umps

Don’t worry bout jye he’s absolute least of our problems
Will be close to our best player in time

 

[Randomizor]

Great post

Match committee stopped us being top two
Lack of selection integrity will destroy us.

It’s been a problem all year. We selected cooked players who did literally nothing for far too many games in a row.

 

[freo84]

Why don't we tackle?

We need to get those tackle numbers up.
