Autopsy Round 22, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs North Melbourne

Remove this Banner Ad

Andrew Gaff, against the team that desperately wanted him.

Oscar Allen five goals in the second half. Strip him of the captaincy lol you cowards.

Jack Darling genuine game winning spoil. North mark that and it’s over. Instead, he saves the day, sets up Cripps, wow.

McGovern All Aus locked up.

Ryan lifted hugely. Yeo down the stretch.

Cya North, get back on the phone to AFL House and ask for another priority pick, boo Harley from the opening bounce for…reasons…but forget about the game.

UP THE ****ING COASTERS

North petitioning to start all games with a 5 goal lead. As they say in the classics, suffer in your jocks.

  • Oscar the skipper. Was hard on him in the first half exactly because that's what he's capable of. Match winning second half
  • Gaff taking contested grabs late in the game. Shades of Masten in the GF except wisely centred it instead of missing
  • Gov is the best defender of the generation, if you don't agree you don't understand football
  • The boy in defence working wonders
  • Schofield unearthing some player moves and a few new guys getting a chance to stake a claim
  • Fightback two weeks in a row showing big heart

-Leaders poor in the first half only magnified by how well they played in the second
-Hall had a few short step moments hopefully doesn't cost him a list spot
-Waterman annoyingly inaccurate
-Bailey tries hard but how often is the opposition ruckman BOG?
-Forward pressure let chip scabs run free out of defence most of the day
 
I actually wasn't hugely negative on Bailey Williams' game during watching.
But when your direct opponent (who is not a midfielder) has 30 disposals, 24 contested possessions, 13 clearances and 12 tackles you've got to wonder what he's doing out there. I get you get beaten in the actual ruck work, but gee, at least try to nullify the other parts of your opponent's game.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

That’ll show him for…being drafted first and never saying a bad word about any club in the entire process? Maybe he did something to North last time they played…hmm…uh….


BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
 
+ Gaff getting one last career win taking a courageous mark running back with flight of the ball. Hasn’t done that since Port dirty dog broke gaffs face.

+ Oscar kicking a bag of goals. Classy forwards stay in the F50. He’s still so young and getting his mojo back after injuries.

+ young players get another taste of victory heading into off season

+ Schofields got the job!! Our blokes last 3 years under Simmo would have lost that by 10’goals

+ winning in Tasmania against 4 corrupt VFL umpires never felt so good!!

Up the f+#king coasters!!!
 
On a positive note. With 2 minutes and 18 seconds to go the score is 97 vs 84 and there is a ball up on North's forward flank.
In the remaining 2 minutes and 18 seconds of game time we kicked three goals which is the same amount of goals we had kicked by deep into the third quarter earlier in the game.
That's a pretty astounding turn around.

5 contested marks. Also lol how for most of the game the commentators were going on about it as a an even match up
