Autopsy Marsh Series Week 1 - Gold Coast vs Geelong, Metricon Stadium, Saturday 22nd February

Atkins... Drops simple mark.. Seen enough - turning it off.. Someone PM me when this team starts showing some effort and Chris Scott actually implements a positive game plan (or gets sacked).

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Whoa, Zach Guthrie is bad...

 

[cats_09]

Did the commentators just suggest this is close to the best back 6 we could put out there?

 

[dazbroncos]

How many uncontested marks have we dropped tonight?

all of them lol

GO Catters

 

[Partridge]

Only positive out of this game is knowing that Zach Guthrie will never play seniors for Geelong again. Seriously crap footballer.

He looks like Haydn Bunton next to Parsons. I’ve been delayed in joining the pile on but tonight, wow.

 

[frggr]

I think we are going to miss Kelly more than we realize.

Jack Steven will hopefully make up for that a bit

 

[Frappe]

Gryan! Here we come

How many uncontested marks have we dropped tonight?

The conditions are slippery from the heavy dew (and I don't mean Stuart Dew either), so it's a wet ball game.

so... we wont see you again till 2022. Copy that.

GO CAtters

Think we'll skip MVP votes tonight. Going to be nigh on impossible finding 5 good players.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Yay Miers goal...

Stop using the Panthers theme song, Suns thanks...ugh

Yep. They're not exactly wrong though, are they? Missing O'Connor and Kolo, I suppose...

 

[Grimoz]

Jack might think about retirement after tonights viewing

Yet the Suns are continually one-grabbing everything...

Never know, we may see the club extend Scott's contact by a further 3-years half way through this season - then we can extend that break to 2025...

 

[Purrfect pussy]

I think we are going to miss Kelly more than we realize.

Hard to say based off this performance though. We are missing basically our whole midfield.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

We have any other rucks on the list who weren't out there tonight?

 

[AlcoaCat]

That was totally ordinary. Ordinary side, ordinary effort, ordinary coach, ordinary opponents, ordinary weather and I've had a totally ordinary day.

You'd hope they'll try a bit harder next week. Barely made it to the end of this one.

 

[strauchnyy]

I'm curious how did Cooper Stephens look? Quick, dour, fumbly, steady, efficient user, what's his deal? Worth the Pick 16? Or a poor mans Worpel?

Didn’t do anything to suggest a first round pick

I really didn't see anything in this practice game to be excited about. I would have preferred to see a few more youngsters get a run instead of the senior blokes as well.

Also wished the season started sooner and was longer so this mickey mouse football was scrapped.

 

[cats_09]

Yep. They're not exactly wrong though, are they? Missing O'Connor and Kolo, I suppose...

O'Connor, Kolo & Henry who were all pretty much locks last year - so like half of our back 6

Or being generous, like 40% if we consider there'd normally be 1 or 2 defenders on the bench meaning 3 of our regular back 7/8 players

 

[strauchnyy]

Actually think Darcy fort is the worst player I’ve ever seen

Why dont we get to play preseason games at KP? Usually its at some obscure ground like Bendigo, why do the suns get to play at metricon instead of a suburban ground.
