Autopsy Roast & Toast R5 vs West Coast & Changes for The Bye

[juss]

Can’t see it getting better until we get some of our midfielders back

Although on the bright side Lefau looks like he can be a player

Bolton, Miller and Mansell all had a decent games

Campbell, Rioli Jr and Sonsie had some nice moments

Miller? I was watching a different game, I thought he was horrid.

 

[The_Kraken]

The lack of defensive effort by our mids was tough to watch.
Sure, we lack the cattle, but defensive effort is a fundamental.
When a side lacking talent doesn’t bring defensive effort, they’re ****ed.

I mean it’s literally half our side

Take like for like out of most clubs, then they struggle.

This loss may look bad, but it really isn’t that bad. It’s not like our full strength side is a top 4 side. great to begin with, so it’s expected that our VFL side would get smashed by ordinary teams.

In terms of players, Kosi should be one of the last KPPs we pick. I was against him coming into the side last week, and I haven’t changed my mind. This guy’s struggling at VFL level. What makes us think he’ll do anything at AFL level? I don’t care about how many KPPs we have out. No point playing a tall that is uncompetitive.

I’d honestly rather Naismith and Ryan. As ordinary as Ryan is in the air, we’ve seen something from him at VFL level the last few weeks.

TBH I really thought he might kick a bag today considering how bad west coast have been playing but this bloke was big mistake and the hawks played us well snagging a good draft pick for him, he truly a potato if I've ever seen one.

We have to remember this.
And the Eagles are finally ok again.
They were very good against Swans last week.
Anyway, gonna be a long season.

 

[prodigy]

Don't turn up next round
They don't give a *
It's all a big tucking joke
All the premiership players don't care
They have there medals and there content to
Drift off in the sunset
No ******* leadership at this club
None whatsoever we are doomed
And we ain't coming back this century

Settle

 

[TigerImposter]

Biggest disappointment today were most of our senior players led by the captain Nankervis. It took him until the last quarter to go down and play a kick behind the play and help our defenders out . There’s a lot of undisciplined players on our list atm and bloody slow ones also.

 

[Coach_Required]

It's the loss we had to have.

 

[TigerPaul71]

to be honest.. Yeah its disappointing
But all our younger players are getting a go.
sink or swim, today we sunk,
been good signs so far until today.
is what it is..

 

[Triggering Tiger]

Kosi out Samson in, Ryan is kicking backs in the VFL. Kosi is trash

A bag of twisties could do better than kosi.

Not sure he could've done much considering 75% of the damage was from centre bounce situations, and you can't have Nank at the centre bounce, but also as a loose behind the ball.

Yeah definitely looked like he checked out.

 

[captain blood 17]

It’s time lads. Let’s enhance the draft hand before Tassie start getting concessions.

 

[Rubber Hips]

Mykelti has balls…he cracks in


3 goals 1…id take that every day of the week

At the start of the season I said I’d be rapt with 20 goals from him in 2024… he has 6 so far

Keep playing the lad…needs help…but he is developing nicely

 

[Triggering Tiger]

Dusty did not look invested in the game

He's been like that for a while so don't be surprised the rumors are true he might hang up the boots at the end of the season.

 

[Madtiger2006]

Smith and Ryan in
Picket and Kosi out

 

[fightingfury]

This team won a third flag only 4 years ago. Tables can turn so quickly

I think he as 7 or 8 actually did you include the swans game?

No doubt just that we were ok against a better side last week with similar players available. It really comes down to how the senior players we have out there play. Dusty, Nank, Vlas, Baker etc were miles off it today. They need to be great every game for us to compete at the moment.

I said that in the match day thread as well.

Their goals didn’t all come from centre clearances.

 

[TheOptimum18]

Dusty did not look invested in the game

Yeah definitely looked like he checked out.

He looked invested when he had ball in hand, so not sure what this is about?

Feel like there was a directive from the coaches box that Dusty would play more fwd of the ball today.

Maybe on one occassion, you can say that Dusty didn't run back hard enough in transition, but if you look back at it, he was the only one that was actually running back.
