Autopsy Roast & toast vs Melbourne and changes for round 21 vs Western Bulldogs

[DustinsGuns]

Have to play kids now. What the **** is the MC thinking. We have only beaten poor teams this year. It's not a coincidence.

Guys performing at VFL MUST get games. Especially guys like Cumberland, Sonsie and Clarke who have shown signs at the level

 

[sante]

5 goal loss is harsh, we were pretty good but outclassed in the second half plus some dumb umpire decisions which cost us goals.

 

[Groupie_]

No one sugar coat that. It was a poor effort by us, full of simple errors that should not be made in the afl and just stupidity utter stupidity.
It was embarrassing

u miss the umpiring ?

 

[DustinsGuns]

Grimes is no longer up to standard and has been on the decline for the past 12 months.

He's fallen off a cliff. Edwards-esk but with a contract

 

[tiger_tough]

Why the **** would we sub Miller off and move Balta out of the backline? All it did was make it easier for dees to score and easier for Lever and May to intercept. Plus Gawn dominated Balta.

Shocking decision by Mini. Twice he's done that against the dees, twice its hurt us.

EDIT: sorry Dimma did it last time.

 

[beema limapep]

Soldo was good. Gave his all.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Out:
Graham
Grimes
Miller
Pickett

In:
Nankervis
Cumberland
Bauer
Short
Coulthard into 22

 

[tunksy]

missed lynchy for sure. we just arent very potent up forward and it shows. we are relying on smaller guys for our chances.

Cumberland should be straight in. Soldo and nank should play together miller can go back to the vfl.

Cant buy a holding the ball or high contact hey..

 

[GoTigers2015]

Overpowered by the Dees and the umps with soft 50s and frees.

has been good on the wing winning contests and composed with his ball use. One of the few positives to take out of the game.

 

[beema limapep]

Umpires are cheets

 

[lizard man]

Gawn had 23 disposals in the second half ….. yikes

basically was our backline

 

[richo's dodgy hammy]

Hope this is the nail in the coffin for our season, and Mini as a coach candidate.
Had no ticker at selection, and went unchanged.
Our skills are deplorable. Our midfield has no real plan, and our forward entries are constantly rubbish.
Pickett needs to go immediately.
Cumberland and Bauer need to come in for some more potency up forward.

Were winning till umpires intervened against a team who is top 4.

 

[tigers12]

Until our club calls out this blatant cheating umpiring I’m not spending one more cent enough is enough everyone must now boycott games to say we are serious something seriously needs to be done I’ve had a gutfull our club says nothing If this was Collingwood or Geelong they would be going troppo at the afl

. We couldn’t stop him.
Out: Grimes, Soldo
ins: Short, Nankervis

 

[Roksman]

Couldn't believe my eyes in the game day thread when everyone was lauding mini for "moving the magnets" and put Balta forward.

Our defence absolutely went to s**t the moment that move was made. Their key forwards were already having a good game but to move your best KPD out to compound the problem is borderline moronic.

One tin arse goal doesn't mean the move worked at all.

Could be the dumbest coaching move you'll see all season from 18 clubs including West Coast and North Melbourne.

Went into the game with no marking targets when Ryan and Cumberland were available (Miller does not count ) so you need to own that decision. You don't then completely sabotage team structure by moving the #1 intercept marker in the AFL.

Thanks but no thanks Mini. Good luck in the future.

 

[beema limapep]

Years of drafting half back flanks and ignoring key forwards are coming home to roost.

We don't even look close to getting a contested mark inside 50. Ever.

 

[Karp3_dm]

Hope that loss really hits the selection committee in the head that a few of the premiership hero’s are done

Grimes and Graham especially
****en diabolical

Drop them and play the kids ffs

Brown, Cumbo, Judson all should play next week

 

[Muddiemoose]

Soldo was good. Gave his all.

That’s the issue
He gave it his all but it was just a serviceable game

With Nank the better option and Ryan next in line what’s the point of holding Soldo

Trade bait for mine

 

[DustinsGuns]

WTF happened to our recruitment when Miller is our 3rd best KPF option? No disrespect to Miller, but Riewoldt has been toward the end of his career the last 2-3 years. Why were we prioritizing multiple inside mids rather than at least a 30 goal/year KPF?

 

[Tomnat Tigers]

5 goal loss is harsh, we were pretty good but outclassed in the second half plus some dumb umpire decisions which cost us goals.

This. 5 goal loss with an ass reaming from the umpires (3 goals from the top of the square from 3 kicks) against the team that likely finishes second.

If Balta plays just an average game we likely win this game, instead he has an absolute shocker and the quality around him isn't good enough to make up for it.

 

[hanshotfirst]

Miller was the wrong player to sub out. Should've been Jack or Cotch.

Nank out hurt us. Nank and Soldo working over Gawn would have nullified him.

Petty getting a bag of 6 means nothing, we have a habit of making spuds look like match winners.

 

[tropicaltiger]

QUESTION - do we get a free kick after halfway during the 2nd Q
ANSWER - YEAH 1 with 2 seconds in the game left.
Viney and Trakka try to bulldoze his way through tackles and traffic x 8 times = 8 ball ups.
Taranto, hopper and broad do the same x 5 times = 5 free kicks to Dees

 

[DustinsGuns]

That’s the issue
He gave it his all but it was just a serviceable game

With Nank the better option and Ryan next in line what’s the point of holding Soldo

Trade bait for mine

No doubt, but at least Soldo didn't lay down. Gave his all imo.

Need to develop Ryan as that second ruck because he won't make it as a forward imo

 

[Rubber Hips]

Huh?

He has shown plenty of times he does.

You know that having a plan B doesn't automatically mean a team is going to win, yeah?

right

Tell me the plenty of times he has shown he can think laterally?
