Autopsy Round 7: Richmond vs Hawthorn - Post game discussion and changes for Sydney

[mcuzzy]

Just punched my pet hawk in the face

 

[SunshineBoy]

our fitness regime is one of if not the worst in the comp every other club has gotten fit and ready for the reduction in interchanges and we have been stagnant we really need a clean out of most area's at the club

Our game plan is stagnant and our fitness is stagnant

 

[MightyTiger]

Played great for 3 quarters but early in the last, game on the line, the umps stepped up big time and kicked a couple of crucial goals that broke us.

Even the goal umpires are in on it.

 

[Groupie_]

A lot better. A very disappointing last quarter, but I reckon we're coming around. Rance back next week will be huge for us, I'm backing us in at home.

Cotch will play next week

 

[joelsyt]

Overall happy with how we played, however we have got to improve our last quarters.

 

[Trucker Tiger]

Surely this is the end of McIntosh as a defender rubbish. Put him back on the wing. Brandon should make way for him.

As for Morris, another fine performance. Firming for the JD medal.

 

[Nostradumbass]

We looked a lot better without Astbury for a while

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

sides rest their best players against us and still win...

 

[Rubber Hips]

Good 3 quarter effort...but had to carry too many senior passengers, Batchelor Chaplin
Bellis Houli...Grigg crucial errors in the last

 

[SunshineBoy]

Really liked Short's game. Needs to stay in the ones.

I had him in the votes

 

[NaturalDisaster]

We'd be a good team without Chaplin, Morris, Houli, Batchelor, Griffiths and B.Ellis.

Cotchin, Grimes, Rance, Conca, McBean/Lennon, Yarran

fixed.

Griffs was ok, Houli is usually good, Ellis was good previous years but shit this year, morris did well during stages too

 

[sante]

Missing Rance, Cotchin, Conca, Yarran and Grimes. Had 5 kids playing also. So overall im happy. Vlaustin in the guts works. Lids started to get back into it in the third and would be better for the run. We know who the duds are, so wont waste time on them. Really happy with Corey's game. Miles also is back in form.

Last quarter blew out as we ran out of run, expected that with some of our kids.

Missing Yarran? He's never played for us lol

 

[richoBABY]

Thought we were great 3/4 quarters, shame the scoreboard doesn't reflect it.
Thought a few players lifted, good game by most of the young guys.
Not overly upset because the effort but still pretty shattering to lose by that much after all the effort

 

[Tomnat Tigers]

Dimma can't piss off soon enough.

Vlastuin playing really well in the middle forcing Hawks to be accountable for all three mids in the center. So what does he do chuck in the backline again, just ****ing stupid. Don't give me any shit about not having the fitness as he was running the game out the best of any of the backline in the last.

Chaplin was responsible for at least half their score. So many pathetic efforts in key contest that resulted in goals, whether it be on the ground or in the marking contest. Not sure he got a fist to any ball throughout the game. Why the **** is he getting a game?

First 3 goals came from quick, direct ball movement through the middle. Dried up soon after.

 

[nmdavis82]

When is Yarran going to start playing?

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

seriously dimma keep playing the dumb ****ers..

 

[SunshineBoy]

Griffs was ok, Houli is usually good, Ellis was good previous years but shit this year, morris did well during stages too

Houli has been awful this season

 

[MightyTiger]

Our game plan is stagnant and our fitness is stagnant

We're we watching the same game??

For three quarters we played a tough contested fast brand of football, you could tell with about 5-10 minutes left in the third that the boys blew up.

Take your blinkers off bud, it's not always the coaches fault.

 

[Gentlemen]

ok yeah longer list this time
-Martin wow, I'm impressed, finally showed up and said "I want to play"
-Miles very good, playing the level we expected
-CEllis, Rioli and Short continue to impress, please, please keep them both in the team for as long as possible
-Griff throwing body around, Vickery getting into spots, Riewoldt kicking a few with busted ankle, liked the tall forward game
-Hampson ****ing dominated McEvoy in the hitouts lol
-Vlastuin is a midfield machine, why didn't this happen earlier??


Obviously a few negatives but I'm sure others will list them, dissapointing game but I felt it was more of an issue with game plan over the actual players

 

[tigerz18]

Class and experience of dawks shone through in last quarter. Grigg 2 turnovers at start of the last quarter took the sails out. He seriously is all about his stats and thats all.

Griff showed a bit in first half then disappeared as usual. Vvlas in the guts was gold and needs to play there from now. All the kids showed a bit and tonight was mor3 positive. Also think hampson is getting better the more he plays. We might see the decline of maric sooner then expected. Unless he is injured he needs rto get sbout 80 hitouts tomorroe and 20 possies

 

[Maybenextyear]

Out : AFL
In : NRL

 

[Rubber Hips]

We had 3 players out there with less than 10 games



Hawks had 5 ...

 

[L_J_T]

How much longer can the club keep its head in the sand, we don't need stability, we need change. We maybe missing some players, but they were also missing arguably their best three players and we lost by 8 goals.

Still a majority premiership side...they still had a strong forward line and it killed us.

 

[SunshineBoy]

When is Yarran going to start playing?

Who?

 

[DrMike]

Missing Yarran? He's never played for us lol

Oh in that case, we're also missing Treloar, Adams, Tyson, Steele, Bennell....
