Autopsy "We talking bout PRACTICE!?" - Praccy Match vs GWS March 4th

[Supersuns]

Dominated clearance and even on inside 50s. Just cruising around on anything else and GWS playing at a AFL intensity for their new coach. If we came out flat like this against Sydney I'd be super surprised

 

[CommittedSuns]

Turnovers are killing us… Constable, McPherson, Lukosius just coach killers

 

[Supersuns]

So who we drafting with Pick 1?

 

[sunsofanarchy]

Powell and Weller in for Graham and Constable. Farrar will have to play tall. Can't keep just hacking it out of defence. No Miller shows.

 

[kreglze]

Ellis' hard running also covers a lot as well.

 

[Scotty_222]

Powell and Weller in for Graham and Constable. Farrar will have to play tall. Can't keep just hacking it out of defence. No Miller shows.

The bombing in the forward line doesn’t help either. Haven’t lowered our eyes at all. I think Noah has once

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Go Bodhi!!

 

[Disambiguous]

We're definitely short an a-grade key defender.

Uwland very nervous

 

[sunsofanarchy]

Dermie will love uwland

 

[CommittedSuns]

This could be just what we need… we usually kill it in the pre season and then produce nothing

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Noah cotton wool early, 3QT. Witts has joined him now.

 

[The Kings Ransom]

I’m only at the start of the 3rd quarter but still 27 points back.

Whilst I don’t mind losing the match.

I’m just worried that we’re struggling with the same things as last year.

Opposition with plenty of uncontested ball. Us trying hard around the stoppages but can’t really move the ball well and can’t really stop the opposition.

 

[Supersuns]

Giants keeping their main midfield out there. We had Chol, Fiorini, Hollands and Davies at that bounce. Tells the difference between how the two teams are taking this game

No, it's been terrible. Kicking into the fwd line has always been Dew's sides biggest deficiency. Ellis and Miller into the midfield will help

 

[Jen2310]

It was just the third quarter that wasnt up to standard. But otherwise hasnt been too bad. Just gotta clean up the little things

Giants didn't play a game last week as well.

A lot of their players are trying to get into the best 22 for round 1, likely the suns have their best 22 set for round 1 by this point and it's a lot of cotton wool and a lot of players early.

We are also just trying to get minutes into players like King and vital minutes for Flanders starting in the midfield.

Can't really take too much from this game from an outsiders perspective but i'm sure the coaching staff will take a bit from this.

Even Casboult main ruck, at least the coaches are trying to flip the magnets

 

[sunsofanarchy]

Dropping Casboult for Humphrey will force us to lower our eyes a little, it's a better decision maker out there, a better field kick, another midfield option. Then we have King leading all the way up to the wing and creates holes behind him.

Didn’t hate that. He did ok when there.

Witts didn’t seem very dominant in large parts of the game.

's back.

Bring on Sydney Round 1.

Davies, Flanders, Long, Rowell, Jeffrey not bad today

 

[Supersuns]

Davies and Flanders looking good as rotational mids.
Flander work rate has floored me. It was super patchy last year but he just works from contest to contest, usually unrewarded. Great to see him going up a level.

 

[Jirik13]

Finally, we lost both pre-season games. We should have a ripper season.

A bit underwhelming 2nd half. Looks like no injuries.

It will be interesting to see how our forward line will look like in round 1.

And who will come in round 1. Possibly - Miller, Ellis, Powell, Humphrey. Not sure how Lemmens goes.

Let's season start. Go Suns.

 

[Disambiguous]

Lukosius’ intensity underwhelms me. He has one or two great possessions a game. He only had ten possessions at 60 per cent efficiency today. He comes across as entitled. Something needs to change by round one.

 

[Disambiguous]

We play our best when we have high intensity for four quarters. I hope that happens in round one and we maintain it for twenty-three rounds. When we don't show that intensity, we fall off the pace. We can't afford to take our foot off the pedal this year.
