Autopsy Round 16 2023 – Melbourne Demons vs GWS Giants, Sunday, July 2, 3.20pm AEST, TIO Traegar Park, NT

[Giant Strides]

So far this round, there's been one near upset (Bombers almost beating port) & one upset-of-sorts (Cats-Swans draw) - let's hope that we can have a real upset tomorrow afternoon by GWS sending the orange tsunami through TIO Traegar Park to defeat the Demons. Of course, it will be a big ask, given the 100% loss rate of teams coming off byes against teams who aren't, but we can dream eh?

The weather's looking decidedly Melbourne-like, though. Perhaps that's not a good sign. Anyway, fingers crossed and hopes are high! Go GIANTS!

I think we are a good chance to win. Melbourne's forward line isn't great, Oliver is missing. They can be very inaccurate with their goalkicking.
I rate us a much better chance in this game than the Brisbane or Bulldogs games this year.
Briggs is a big factor, as is Taylor.

 

[Colonial]

Play at our best and we win and win well.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

Going to be a tough game for us, but the way Kingsley has developed the team gives us reasons to be optimistic. The market has also swung slightly towards us since last week though we are still overwhelming underdogs at $2.79 (Melbourne are $1.42). Will give us a good indication of our finals prospect this year.

This game has a “you will never beat Geelong in Geelong” feel to it.

I reckon the belief may be back after a big win and a refresh over the break.

I can't believe it's raining for our game in the desert.

 

[Battlepants]

Very surprised with Angwin as the sub. Thought it would've been Fahey for sure.

 

[Section226]

One gets the feeling a GWS player will have to be decapitated or de-limbed to get a free kick today.

 

[Hojuman]

Kicking reasonably straight will win this Gianter's.

Score of 7.12. will do.

 

[JoshGiant23]

Earlier in the quarter the unthinkable happened
..........
finna kicked with his right

 

[Land of the Giants]

Only one scoring shot.

 

[mau5trap]

Said we weren't going to kick it to Lever and May yet we did it about 10 times that quarter, needs to change ASAP

 

[sydney_gws]

Only one scoring shot.

I missed 1st qtr, do we look in the game or are we being outplayed.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

Who else but Toby..freaking genius!

Look in the game, we're pin point with our delivery to Lever and May

 

[Land of the Giants]

Toby got a free kick.

It's not a typo.

 

[Land of the Giants]

Toby magic!

 

[MelbourneGWS]

And now it’s 2 to Toby.. just need to clone him and we’ll be winning premierships in no time!

 

[MelbourneGWS]

Half time and dead even. Hopefully Kingsley will have us fired up, and we can get the win.

We are getting a belting from the umps. Not just the count, but a stack of kicking in danger not paid to us, they have been given 3.
Insufficient internet, no benefit for us, plenty for them.
The no call high on Toby was horrendous.
Yet it's all square.
Every chance here.

The 14-1 free kick count right now is a joke. Legitimately not sure what it's going to take for us to get paid a free here.

 

[Colonial]

Getting robbed blind

 

[Hojuman]

Been good O'Hallaran.

 

[Colonial]

s**t

 

[GWS Goose]

Great start to the quarter.
Grand stand finish coming up.
Whatever happens you can see the team growing
