Autopsy Rd 12 Newnes wins the game for Carlton after the siren!

[james Dean]

Soft free kick goals to Tabs and Lobb will be forgotten, we get one and it will be the headline

**** it we were better over the game, should have converted a few earlier.

Anyone criticising Cripps can go GTFO, he’s a champ.

Love this ****ing club

 

[Just Kreuzing]

AFL got a bit to sort out of umpires are going to get as much shit wrong as they did he the last few seconds.

They need to sort out the entitled cameraman as well, either he gets the **** out of the way or he has nothing to video....

 

[Jeremias]

Stick a fork in me.

That 90 seconds was the most comical end to a football match you'll ever see.

And I think I've broken my hand.

 

[Mr_Plow]

I hadn't seen much of Luke Ryan before, but he was unbelievable tonight.

Best player on the ground IMO.

Comfortably, Walsh 2nd.

 

[Foxy1302]

Everyone in my house is asleep. I'm jumping around my house silently.

Why silent. The boss was not happy after the game. No she was not

 

[Own The Future]

Wonder how many teams in history have won a game after only leading after the siren rang to end the fourth quarter?

Did we kick the first point?

 

[Mondyboy]

10 year old burst into tears the moment Newnes kicked the goal. I wasn’t far behind. Amazing. What a ridiculous season.

 

[BigBreakfast]

Should of been Gibbo, but thank fu** Newnes had it, best set shot at the club

Well, except the one where he ran into an open goal from 25 out. Meh.

 

[Ald Gardiner]

Cunners,Mitch,JackM, all available next week.

Caleb and Dow you’d think in the mix.

Sps.Eddie.Kennedy.Simo very poor tonight.

AFL site says Kennedy injured. Doubt JM will get up

Just let wanted to post this here, as me and my partner are in raptures right now (her side Carlton and obviously my second side) - you may have just witnessed divine intervention, haha.

My grandmother unfortunately passed away today, from this f*cking horrible covid 19 disease. It's been a tough day as we were close, but footy has been a great comfort all throughout.

Point of this post, is that with about 10 minutes to go, I looked up to the sky and asked my nana if she could help us over the line. 10 seconds to go and Docherty kicks it out on the full. Me and my partner both think it's over and we commiserate.

Nek minnit, a down the field free kick is paid, and no-one really knows what it's for. Moreso, Newnes who is an experienced player takes the kick, and Gibbons who is young doesn't.

Newnes kicks the goal, and the rest is history.

For the record, I'm an agnostic, but I do believe there's things we don't understand. I said thank you to my nana, and it kinda brings me a bit of joy to see something so bizarre/unusual unfold.

Go Blues!

What a great post. Thanks Shadow89.
Condolences to you and your family.

Yeh dow straight in for cottrell who was worst on ground by a mile.

marchy would be good as that intereceptor

id like honey to play on but mcgovern will take his place after hes finished at fat camp.

 

[NavySteel]

SkyhorseTamer yes newesn wasnt huge in the game but he didnt stop trying. laid a lot of tackles. lots of players made mistakes. but but he kicked the winning goal froma difficult angle. allow me to exagerate a little.

Couldn't hit the target in the second, 10m out, slight angle, not surrounding defenders....

55m out on arc and boundary junction, however..... No problems!!

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Post match presser entails Teague, some back packing stoner and a very sour old man.

 

[passmark]

I love Perth. A bloke who gets dragged up in a prawn net can take control of a presser.

 

[RAPPA]

Wow these Perth reports are dumb as dog $hit

“Do you think you can play finals?”

Teague: “if we win all the remaining games we will play finals”.

What nuffball thinks a coach would say “mmmm, nah don’t think so”

 

[myblueroan]

Good point Teaguey.
2 x quarrantine..Freo's home state.
Boys haven't been home for ages.
Bloody well done boys!!!

I thought Kennedy was good in the second half up until the last few minutes, I think he just ran out of gas.

I remember seeing him struggling to put one foot in front of the other chasing someone in our forward 50, poor bloke was cooked.

Felt we got the rub in umpiring decisions, especially in the 2nd half

We led in the first couple of minutes in the game. Crippa’s miss.

 

[ESKIE]

I'll admit I was hoping Gibbons would take the kick, he has kicked a couple from there.

But FMD Newnes you ripper

Lol perfect description.

 

[james Dean]

Also I’m sorry for being critical of Walsh earlier this year, what a gun

 

[Jabba73]

needs to be an enquiry and I'd be happy to lose the points if it meant getting some consistency back into the game adjudication........pretty sure.........

Why?

Umpires have no influence on the result you told me ... several times

 

[BlueBlood89]

Worst on ground? No way. He did what he needed to do. Saw ball, get ball, bang ball long in wet conditions. Stuck to his opponent. Don't let the disposal efficiency get to you when he was in the trenches. Great goal too.

Cottrell bang ball long in wet conditions?
Think we were watching different games. Twice in about 30 seconds he gave two dribble kicks in defensive 50 that went straight to a freo player that went about 10metres.
Might be able to run all day, but needs more time in the twos, has no clue at all...bring back dow for sure

I’ve been trying to get over Blight’s kick after the siren for decades.


I now have.
