Autopsy AFL 2023 First Semi Final (Week 2) - Demons v Blues Fri Sept 15th 7:50pm EST (MCG)

Don't think the umpires have had any influence on the score but would like them to put the whistle away in the 2nd half. Too many free kicks.

Yeah, nah. Umpires have gotten you in front.

In regards to the May decision:

 

[Magpie Since 1986]

Melbourne's tall forward targets are ****ing putrid. I can't see how moving Gawn forward and playing Grundy ruck wouldn't have made them a better team. Guess you need a coach that isn't an arrogant w***er to make those kinda moves and Goody used all his belief in Grundy midyear

 

[VinnieB]

But what is the 'expected score'?

 

[Dazza the Viking]

May wasn’t sliding into the ball, (which is why it was brought in) he was diving on the ball, he wasn’t trying to take the players legs out

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Free Kicks, 13 each

The single most meaningless stat in footy.

 

[HotPiesWithSauce]

Why even say this. Moron comment.

Oh, so you haven't met ChristianBoy before now?

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Yeah, nah. Umpires have gotten you in front.

How? I don't remember any bad free kicks resulting in goals. The free to Kosi that got them the first was a pretty average call. TDK free was there. The rest have been in transition or in defence.

 

[Beauski]

In regards to the May decision:

A redditor has taken it upon himself to be the voice for the umpires, hilarious and somewhat pathetic.

 

[Iamspock]

Pickett tried but too soft to inflict any damage

Yes, Pickett's only talent is catching players off guard

 

[HairyO]

Anyone who starts their post with as a neutral has a clear bias in their opinion or they wouldn't feel the need to mention it fwiw.

Im neutral and it was fine until the last minute with a couple of very soft frees.

 

[Fitzey]

Stock trying to detail the thread Fitzey, and stick to the game at hand. Couldn’t expect anything else I suppose, after you condoned Pickett’s thuggish behaviour.

Pickett simply can’t be reported. It’s 10x less of a incident than the one we all watched during the week.

 

[Chadwiko]

Genuinely the worst high free kick I've ever seen in my life, he tackled him around the chest...

Any post that starts with "Genuinely" is a lie. You wouldn't need to say it otherwise.

 

[Skull Face]

Contact below the knee!?!?! He was ******* 2 seconds ahead of him! And then the free in the marking contest when the Blues collided with each other. Fix is absolutely in.

Contact below the knees could have went either way it's a lottery decision depends where the dice land but the high contact was an arm to the head from a Melbourne player

 

[Chinacats]

Big difference I think is that Carlton's forward line is competing, Melbourne's hasn't been. Carlton since the second half of the first quarter have looked a lot better, but it's still looking like it'll be tight. That Melbourne has had more scoring shots feels a bit of a surprise.

Yeah Dees can’t really move the ball well going forward. Whole season problem that needs a quick fix right now!

 

[ChristianBoy]

Why even say this. Moron comment.

Happened last just thought you were allowed to now. Won Collingwood a game.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Oh, so you haven't met ChristianBoy before now?

Saints supporter who for some reason has latched onto Melbourne. Delusional poster.

 

[jakson68]

We should knock out one of Carlton’s best mids that would help.

As proved last week, it doesn’t even need to be one of your best.

 

[Skull Face]

Any post that starts with "Genuinely" is a lie. You wouldn't need to say it otherwise.

Thanks for proving me correct

 

[GoPies1]

Weitering - knee
The facial expression amd the physio
Any news on it?

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

Huh? Salem's skills are elite. Good composure too

He’s horribly out of form

 

[VicBased]

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Good to see a person dedicated to their post

 

[Fitzey]

Geez I wish these same commentators backed up a Melbourne player the same way they did a Collingwood player last week

 

[FreoRicci]

Melbourne's tall forward targets are ******* putrid. I can't see how moving Gawn forward and playing Grundy ruck wouldn't have made them a better team. Guess you need a coach that isn't an arrogant w***er to make those kinda moves and Goody used all his belief in Grundy midyear

At least needed a second ruck.
Gawn wanted all the attention and can’t play anywhere else. More his fault then anything.
Compromised for Jackson yet can’t for Grundy?

 

[HotPiesWithSauce]

I think I'll kill myself this week if Carlton win. Carlton supporters will be insufferable.

RUOK?
