Autopsy Rd 14 Blues go home at half time

[Stig O'Hara]

You don’t win the toss and then elect to kick into a Solar Eclipse for a start!!!

 

[TerryWallet]

Darcy Moore, along with his flankers Maynard and Crisp absolutely destroyed us in the 2nd half.

Credit where credit due.

 

[gandaal]

Cripps needs a good hard look at himself, he's been sh*t all year. Stop embarrassing yourself.

Get stuffed. You don't know what's going on at home.

 

[Juice030103]

Just wish we could have a season that’s not over after the home and away season for once. Really poor footy from us and some really concerning signs. Trying to stay positive but struggling to when we didn’t even kick a goal in the second half

 

[BeligerentBlue]

The way Teague played he would be shaking his head at Plowman shirking Stephenson running at him

 

[Juddalenko]

No need to melt. Disappointing, but gives us a realistic idea of where this team is at. Right with the 10th-12th best teams. Unfortunately don’t seem to have a Plan B, or be able to react to changes in tactic. That second half was as bad as we’ve been. Next year is the year.

 

[Jimmae]

No we didn't

Outstanding rebuttal, thanks for replying

 

[Weiterbot23]

How much of Stephensons winnings does he give to Teauge for putting Plowman on him.

He kills him every time

 

[BeijingBlue]

Dow and Polson? Sorry, good bye.

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

My fault. I was painting and came in to check the score at 46-36. Won’t be doing that again.

 

[The Blue Baggers]

Good ... not much L.Jones & Walsh excepted

Bad .... no goals after half time

ugly .... Plowman Mr Consistent 5 goals a week

 

[bluemahogany]

Get stuffed. You don't know what's going on at home.

No, he's not immune from criticism.

 

[Pablito]

Failure to recognise what needed to be done with squad rotation for the Gold Coast game in order to have people fresh and settled for this match, failure to recognise that we couldn't carry two rucks given our current schedule.

We lost this game at the selection table over the last fortnight.

We had 8 days to rest up, that's plenty, they had 6. No excuses.

 

[Mondyboy]

No excuses. Should have smashed this side. This is worse than the Hawks lost and that was bad.

Very concerned about Paddy Dow who added nothing. Polson had moments, but SPS straight back in.

 

[La Dispute]

Not a finals side currently, but shouldn’t be too disheartened.

The 2 rucks experiment is probably over.

Walsh is a star.

 

[slashin_velvet]

Now that we're out of the race....play the kids.

 

[KohPhi]

Bloody corrupt, cheating AFL. Deliberately give us a 9 day break to snap our momentum..

 

[SurreyBlue]

We have a serious ‘above the shoulders’ issue. That is all I’m saying.

 

[jj1978]

Need to freshen things up next season.

Murphy do the right thing retire, we can't/shouldn't play you 22 games next year.

Coaching - Barker please go somewhere new...

Cripps go back to doing what you did pre 2020... tell Russell it aint working for me.

Bye finals... have a bad feeling Adelaide will get their first win against us and now with not much hope we'll get our usual 100 point belting by GWS.

 

[KnightsBlue]

Why was cottrell dropped? Sps has smashed collingwood few times he has played them. This was poor team selection

 

[Stamos]

Docherty should be stripped of the captaincy. That was a disgrace.

 

[chelseacarlton]

We suck

 

[Mr_Plow]

Bitterly disappointing effort against a C grade outfit. Destroyed at ground level, destroyed in the air, way too many liabilities.

Season officially over, time to invest some games into other players.

 

[chunkylover53]

It is disappointing but it just goes to show we are just not quite there... yet.

 

[90N90S]

Knew this would happen they were running through the middle too eay from the start.

And then you have the elite Murphy playing for us.
