Autopsy Round 8, 2023 : Hawks get docked

[Strapping Young Lad]

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Horrible ball use for most of the night.

Plenty of inside 50's but no cohesion. Defense a mess.


Go at it.

 

[SSSSSS]

Err phrasing?

 

[dcutter]

I thought our kicking to Freo jumpers in the middle of the ground was very good

 

[Sleutheren]

Err phrasing?

No, it's apt.

 

[smish]

Worse than the Geelong/Sydney/Essendon games

 

[hawker11]

Sadly played like dispirited wooden spooners.

 

[seysearles]

Looks a bit bleak but it’s another game into the young legs and a handful of guys had great games tonight. From my perspective we took the wrong game plan into the game. Or maybe we just couldn’t execute it properly. Lots to think about but it’s all part of the journey. We must not deviate.

Also Mitch Lewis is a beast. So many players look disinterested and appear not to care much about losing. I love the fact that Lewis looks angry when we are getting beaten. I wish the whole team had the same mentality.

 

[VandoHawk]

I would like defenders that can actually defend.
I would like midfielders that can actually kick.
I would like forwards who can actually chase. Preferably also kick goals.

Fix that and we’ll be good

 

[SSSSSS]

No, it's apt.

I thought it was usually mutually beneficial.

 

[HappyHawk_1]

Terrible game plan coming out of the backline.

Backline can’t play fast and loose, and choose to just not defend.

Midfield going okay.

Forward line completely dysfunctional - Lewis at least provides something.

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Defensive changes need to happen, forwardline cohesion was poor, midfield tried hard but we got run over.

Need some tough changes this week and we need a rev up before our next game.

 

[HedgeFund]

Horrible ball use for most of the night.

Plenty of inside 50's but no cohesion. Defense a mess.


Go at it.

Did we win the clearances?

 

[Crankyhawk]

just didn't turn up with any intensity outside of center square
and execution poor to woeful

 

[WaxHawk]

Nash only 4 quarter player tonight.

 

[hawkman]

Some big changes needed.

Zero effort. Zero accountability. Zero skills. Zero leadership from leaders

 

[Lickmesocks]

Remember in the pre season when Sam said multiple times in interviews we have many leaders to choose from.

From our leadership group announced who has consistently this season played like a leader?

 

[HedgeFund]

Looks a bit bleak but it’s another game into the young legs and a handful of guys had great games tonight. I feel like we took the wrong game plan I to the game tonight. Or maybe we just could execute it properly. Lots to think about but it’s all part of the journey. We must not deviate.

Seriously - who played a great game?

 

[parsons nose]

Tempers some of the hubris on show in the pre match thread.

 

[burner1]

Horrible performance. Bottom of ladder feels right after watching that.

 

[MadDawg]

Pros: Did more than our bit for the Starlight Foundation.

Cons: The game itself

 

[MinerBoy]

At least my scotch was good

120 minutes of ineptitude.

 

[robiecampbellbrown]

Bottom again. Amazingly, West Coast lost by 46 but we still managed to get below them!

 

[Alite]

Brereton, for all of his mixed metaphors and inaccurate use of words, summed up our forward 50 movement in a single well said line,”that is headless right there...the way the Hawks went into fwd 50 then“. So right.

 

[HairyO]

Did we do enough to drop to 18th?

Why on Earth was Ramsden dropped ? 1 week and thats it ?
