Autopsy NM v West Coast - the great choke!

[kangafruity]

That was very, very bad.

But so were the 3 misses by Curtis and 1 by Zurhaar but here we are

The Toby pink turnover late will piss me off all week

He's only playing because of our shitty list composition, and most posters still want a shiny new midfield toy to play with...

A lot of crazy talk on here about a skinny 19 year old who is racking up a heap of disposals and trying to create from deep D50 . Absolute crazy talk .

 

[shinboner magic]

His job as a footballer is to contest, not run around the back for cheap stats.

20m sideways crab kicks are not elite.

People need to take the blinkers off. He is a liability in the contest and has no hurt factor with the ball.

If kick outs didn’t exist would be lucky to get it 10 times a game.

Yeah let’s target a first year player for all our angst after our loss.
He’s job isn’t there to sit under a high ball and cop 4 knees in the back of the head - he does that and he won’t play most weeks because of injury.
He does his job - others around him are the problem , you know the leaders of the club.

 

[RossHenshaw]

Running around the back for cheapies is not having a crack. It’s stat padding.

Today his hurt factor was zero and he had it 37 times.

Hate to say it but would of preferred Sleevo

The absolutely bottom line is that across the board, this team does not execute the basics of the sport, or choose the correct option often enough to win games of football.

You can have all the tactics and structure you want, but if you can’t execute the fundamentals, you’re going to suck.

It’s made worse by having two captains who are serial offenders, often under no pressure. One of them in the defensive part of the field.

It’s a disaster.

 

[William Caresser]

Won clearances and contested ball easily and won the inside 50s 59-42.

We have too many unskilled players by foot including those who kick long every time. Too much blind kicking and not enough composure.

If we keep carrying so many limited footballers on the list with ball in hand, we won't improve much. Must bring in more class via the draft to add to Sheezel.

It not targeting. It’s calling out a big problem in this club.

More interested in cheap stats than impact on the contest.

If his job is to run around the back and chip it 20 meters to a player that gets held up, then he is doing it perfectly.

To many that look at stats and forget game impact.

 

[Danni_Benson]

I'm having trouble, are you happy or unhappy? Tell the truth!

It was either that or a whole lot of $&@$’s!

Biggest difference is our inside 50s compared to the opposition.

We kick ours to packs - whole the opposition has a forward line open af.
Is it our decision making or our forwards that don’t provide proper leads - lead and get out of the ****en way

 

[Midas]

Hilarious.

Give this group another pre-season, a little more talent influx and we have an experience today that will lead to a win next year when it counts.

They’ll learn how to put a team away and how to hold a game by using this as a teaching point.

Almost better than a win because that would have glossed over some of the glaring issues from the way we went about the last quarter and a half.

Has zero impact on where we are headed, we dominated them just got lazy at the front of the stoppage and defending.

We will learn.

 

[Hojuman]

This team turns you into a pitiful human being. You become reduced to loving the colour purple and learning who the sub for the Suns is tonight and wether they can influence the game ☹

Fanks Norf.

 

[Event Horizon]

To think that half way through the third WC still had just 3 goals on the board (two of which were the first two goals of the game) yet ended up kicking a 100 is nothing short of bizarre

I've deleted the game, don't think I could do it to myself to watch again. This one hurt a little, very disappointed

 

[Zondor]

Luke McDonald...nice dropped mark.

The Rot started with his On the Full kick in the backline. Apologies if this has already been mentioned. :stern look

 

[Disco Dew]

I tell you what though. We better ****ing win more than 3 games next year. I’m so over this shit

Close thread.

Carrying too many poorly skilled players

Bang! This is Rawling’s List. Interesting what the apologists have to say about this. :stern look

If there isn’t at least eight, then Clarko ain’t it.

Now, in the spirit of togetherness, let us rewatch the best bit of the game…

Clarko is almost 2 years into his 5 year deal.
The ladder suggests zero improvement in that time. And his game-day coaching has been underwhelming to say the least. I am so intrigued as to whether he has an almighty rabbit to pull out of the hat over the next 3 years, or will we still be in this position in 12-24 months being told to "be patient" as we set the bar lower and lower, accepting a competitive half here and there as a raging success confirming we are "on the right track"?

Yep.

Year 3 is make or break.

No honeymoon period anymore for Clarko. No nice guy.

It has to be a great leap forward type year.

Kerch is the least of our problems. He is being asked to play an outside role in the back half and he is playing the role as good as possible.

The kid nearly had 700m gained, the most (by far) out of anyone on the field. So to say he is just kicking 20m side passes is a complete load of shit.

The Toby pink turnover late will piss me off all week

The McDonald out on the full with no pressure in the 3rd when we had all the momentum was far far worse. That kick single handedly handed WC the momentum.

 

[Possession]

We were dreaming expecting that kind of jump this year. Losing the experience of Goldy, Cunners, Ziebell, McKay, etc... Remember Biggie? lol
