AFL Autopsy Round 16: 25 Point loss to North Melbourne

[Harlequin]

well that was disappointing

What's happening with the Ashes?

Please stop with the hospital handballs I can't take it anymore.

But the game wasn't that bad by us in fact I thought it was a good effort from the young fellas. We also had 1000 less games than Norths side so that has to be taken into consideration.

DELIST STEINBERG!!!!!!!

He was the only reason we lost this game. Not the fact that we got absolutely manhandled by the best ruckman in the league, not the fact that we're playing an AA defender as a key forward and expecting him to kick our goals, not the fact that we had very few stand out performers in midfield.

All Steinberg.

 

[sacka]

good effort by a bunch of kids really, while some are up to it others are not but never gave in.

 

[Nomulus]

93 points again. Third time in a row. I'm sick of losing to these dickheads.

 

[quotemokc]

No Giles, Goldstein dominated and Cunnington had it fed to him on a platter

Giles in would not of been the difference

We need more out of; Goddard, Zaka, Obrien, Ambrose, Howlett. Heppell had a down night and there was no one there to cover for him.

 

[THOMO_31]

good effort. same old tho stupid mistakes cost us. Hooker is a machine those Dukes!!! to bad he can kick over a jam tin ha ha

 

[Wattos Waste]

Full credit to the Dons. Thought they tried hard all night. A seasoned list was just too tough for us. To concede 1000 games is a telling stat.

Well done Bombers.

PS. Hurley, Hooker, Baguley, Hibberd

 

[BomberTime]

Don't know when will see another victory. Might watch the Melbourne game again.

 

[Summer Nights]

Thats deep, man.

Cheers.

Explain how he cost us this game

Picking Steinberg, Ambrose, NOB, not putting Giles in to go against Goldstein.

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

Gave it a red-hot crack with a very young side playing. Not disappointed, but there are lots of areas in which we can improve upon.


Also, play Giles next week. I don't care if he is EDFL division 3 standards, we can't rely on McKernan to go in the ruck again.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

Good effort by the kids. A bit better conversion and some half decent umpiring and we were up to our eyeballs.

Haters gonna hate.

 

[Dave]

Had a crack. In the end the difference was lol norf's kpf kicking 4.1 and ours kicking 1.4 from double the marks.

Not having a ruckman hurt a little too.......

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Steinberg is horrendous. That is all.

 

[Ashton Agar]

Heh, I hate these campaigners more than the next bloke, but not a bad effort by any stretch of the imagination. 2 weeks ago we got pumped by 18 goals to St ****ing Kilda after all.

Go Bombers!

 

[Thebisc]

Seriously crap second half. Reminded me of the Hawks game a couple of weeks back. Promising first half, opposition comes out desperate, we fold, game over.

shit post is shit.
Nobody said he lost us the game, the bloke is clearly unable to play on anyone other than a 4-5th forward, he just isnt AFL standard and its clear to see.

 

[CakeButcher]

Between Ashby, NOB, Steinberg, Ambrose, Howlett, Melksham, Chappy, Fletcher, Winderlich we are going to need one big sharp ****ing axe at the end of the year.

 

[Pweter]

I only watched the 2nd half.

My fault.

 

[thealp23]

More confident about the future of the club after compared to before the game. Really like Gleeson backing himself and Ashby's composure in defence at times. Shaun Edwards may be the consistant quick forward we have needed for years. No shame in that game.

Good effort by the kids. We fought right til the end, can't ask for more than that.
Keep playing them Hirdy and we'll cut out the silly errors gradually.

Giles would have nullified Goldstein and Cunnington, Mckernan would've be a threat down forward whilst Hooker would've dominated Brown.

 

[Mercurial89]

That was actually a pretty good game to watch. We didnt take our chances and it cost us.
Good view to the future. Think every player had good moments and other moments that they would rather forget.
Giles would not have made one iota of difference.

Baguley was good again
If Hooker could kick straight
Gee we need some help for Hep in the middle
