Autopsy Round 6, 2023: Carlton v St.Kilda

[Hayes4PM]

Sir Swamp has enjoyed pulling some stats for us this year. This might be the best one though, nice of him to clarify how he's ordering it all as well.

 

[bergholt]

I didn't see much of the game but that Marshall tackle on Walsh was a thing of beauty

 

[MUFKilda]

It's Tooheys time baby

Then it's on to the VB, George!

Butler got us going imo.
Back to his best of crumbing the footy at full tilt. He’s so exciting to watch when he’s going. I also think he is our barometer, when butler plays well, so do the saints.

Hill was everywhere, wood, Sinclair, elite.

is looking more and more at home at the level on the ball.

You coming to Espy to grind on Dard chief?

Please.

I’m always the grindee, not the grinder.

 

[The Cobra]

Ordinary first half - didn’t look switched on, lethargic & not working hard enough. Smashed in clearances.

Q3 intensity through the roof, Hill working incredibly hard & more physical than I have ever seen plus Sinclair in the middle a game changer.

RTB no doubt some good positional changes and some home truths at half time.

Lets remember they had some serious injury issues which hampered them (but so have we and we managed to win!).

I know we overran them but I still reckon we looked a bit tired after a tough Collingwood game. 5 day break a huge test!

We are definitely relevant again!!! Terribly hard decision for Ratts but the right decision.

 

[sauce_head]

GO SAINTS! Just watched it on delay. We had to overcome it all as usual - loved the effort!

Mitch Owens is currently beating McKay in the Coleman <3

Is the Pou maybe out of gas for now? Billings in for him next week?

No way

[Joffaboy]

Unbelievable someone would have a take Pou out of gas. His work today was exceptional.
Ross loves Cordy, mentioned him three times in the presser, as well as Gres and Higgins.

I remember watching Ross in the media last year and he talked about teams needing to have a system that doesn't just rely on pressure because in his words that wasn't sustainable for 22 rounds .

Tonight was what that looked like. The boys were a little off in the first half but our system stood up .

My players top is from the same era!

 

[Bertha]

Lyon's presser was good, one of the journo's saying we had a soft start to the season but stiffer competition in the last two weeks and Lyon biting back noting Freo and Footscray both played finals last year and the Don's are one of the form teams at the moment - but if the journo didn't rate those clubs that was up to him, hahaha

 

[Kain26Toad]

So, after seeing how today's game was umpired, can you imagine how many Max is going to kick when he returns?

If anyone is questioning why Cordie is in the team just go and watch that 3rd Quarter again.

He's not perfect, he's not the future but he competes competes competes. I can see why Ross loves him.

[triggering bro]

No way

I would bring in Billings for Cordy. Billings to rotate forward when Owens goes into ruck.

 

[SAINTsincebirth]

I've always been one to back Seb against the haters, but one thing that has always bugged me was how little contested footy a guy that plays that many midfield minutes he wins.

Amazing it's taken a few decent coaches to get the best out of him and turn him into a genuine inside mid now

Especially because he is a decent size.

He had a crack but if we want to bring in Billings I reckon he’s in the top 3 to make way. Owens spending time in the ruck the past fortnight makes Cordy expendable IMO.

I have broken every Carlton supporter I know.

From family to friend to foe.

Glorious tonight

Billings needs to play out a full game of VFL before we consider him. Bytel was Sandringhams best, perhaps rotate him and Windy to give Windy a full game. Hopefully Jones plays VFL next week also.

Swinging this baby around for the next 72 hours.
