Autopsy Loss to Sydney - quite literally no words will adequately sum this up

[rickety]

We made too many interchanges.

Why do you think a professional sport means the umpires should just ignore clear rules that every other team has to follow?

We ****ed up and it cost us. It sucks but blaming the umpires is a loser mindset that only befits StKilda flogs.

Go and barrack for them then champ

 

[domiroo]

It’s actually the rule . Penalty for interchange breach is free kick and 50. The umpires had no option.

Yeah right in front of goal yo hey how convenient. **** off idiot .

 

[Moti]

Huge games from Ziebell and McDonald. Heeney and Papley did nothing.

Scott massive throughout.

And yet both made dumb decisions that cost us goals and opportunities to score. We can’t do two things well

Eh. Was always going to happen tbh. Giving up leads and awful umpire calls are just part of the North experience so I'm used to it.

We're gonna finish bottom 2 regardless and not contending for finals, so it is what it is.

We showed heart and some promise of the future.

Bring that effort and we'll beat at least a couple of sides the rest of the year.

Warhammer and Cheez will be ripping teams apart in a couple of years

good f*ckin point

hard loss obviously, but we've not been anywhere near a hard loss for months now

i honestly thought this would be another 40 point+ one and it wasn't anywhere near that

Thanks for clarifying, I posted immediately after the game and admittedly didn't know what the free was for. Still completely ****ed up.

 

[ferball]

It'll be not surprising at all if it turns out we had 75 and the afl counter is wrong

You don't already expect that?

 

[SammyRoo]

Swanies get get “COIA”

Cost of Interchange Allowance

 

[muttley45]

Seriously, did we even get one free kick in the last Q ?

 

[Ischenko]

Had a huge night out, slept in til ducking 4 and was cursing myself for missing the game as I watched the last 5 mins in my phone. Then I was really glad I didn’t go.

 

[William Caresser]

It was the umpiring throughout the game that lost us that game.

But that performance showed how important effort without the footy is - the harassing, tackling, physical intent, shepherding competiveness and manning up. Wardlaw and most of the young guys led the way.

Shows how ordinary some of our middle to older players are in that area. Didn't miss quite a few of them today.

Hopefully this signals the new dawn.

Do you want a gofundme setup for some new glasses?

 

[nicko74]

I dunno why we are talking about umpires. The bench cant count to 75. Its the clubs fault.

Did you watch the game? 2 sets of ****in rules. HTB doesn't apply to them. And you can throw if you're in a red and white jumper. Blatant favouritism

 

[sruss]

I’ve not seen scenes like this walking out. Spot fires and verbals everywhere

Hahaha all good. And forgive my Saints comment, hope you guys can give finals a real shake this year.

The future is very f***ing bright.

Disappointing to lose a game when we were clearly the better team but if we bring that sort of effort for the rest of the year, I'll be happy.

 

[Mav]

Lost to a rule brought in because of Sydney’s blatant interchange cheating…against North.

Sounds about right AFL.

No. It was because me made too many interchanges.

 

[Bulge]

Despite the heartbreaking circumstances, loved what we brought today, except the first half of the first quarter

CCJ
SHEEZ
WARLORD

Get the fk around them

 

[ferball]

We made too many interchanges. It's on us. The rules were applied as they should. Jesus there's plenty of manbabies on here.

Overall that was a step in the right direction despite the heartbreak. The wheel is turning.

What about the last free. That was set up for Jy to kick the winner in the last seconds of the game and that bullshit free.

 

[Moti]

Ziebell, McDonald and Logue all lacked composure and footy smarts late. Can’t wait to get some changes to this squad

I’ve got words.

******* STEPHENSON.

Goldy wins the clearance and this cat is hanging back looking for a cheapie. Is opponent takes a chest mark playing in front and drives the ball forward so Sydney score and are with a kick.

I’ve told you all, this guy will lose us more games than he wins for us. He’s a ******* cat.

Nah, Jyza under kicked it. Only was a 25m scrubber, it should have been a deep kick and forward entry

 

[Caracas]

Bad as we all feel, spare a thought for poor old Nostradamus. He has to deal with the loss and Bailey Scott

I expect a full analysis of the interchanges

Yes, but also:

Out of the centre, swans player grabs the ball, tackled, chickenwinged so can't possibly handball. Throws it, immediate goal. Umpire was 4-5 m away with a clear view.

On the wing, Swans player injures his hand, so throws the ball at a team mate, again the umpire is right there with a direct view. Swans score.


Our steward ****ed up, and should be drowned in an ice bath. But they never should have been within 3 points for it to matter.

After settling down and analysing the last 2 mins we didn’t do ourselves any favours in the clutch.

Couple of minutes left and Powell in the back pocket could’ve chipped back to JZ in the square to chew up some clock but kicked down the line instead = turn over and straight back to a cola goal.

Under a minute JZ kicks to Bailey who should’ve gone straight back to JZ to chew more clock but goes long only to see it come straight back in and becomes their match winning goal.

We have forgotten how to win..
