She's been doing so well, so let's not ruin it by spitting such dreadful afterthoughts.
Is this better?
I'm trying to say that my friend who is currently placed 2nd in a violin competition has done very well, so my other friend's shouldn't keep blaming the judges for placing her in 2nd place. This whole scenario took place after the competition.
In bold are the things I'm unsure of. Please check my grammar. Thanks!

The sentence is grammatical but the vocabulary is way off. Given the context you provided, people don't spit discontent with the decision of judges. Moreover, "afterthoughts" does not fit at all.
