Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 1 - Tigers v Blues Thurs March 13th 7:30pm AEDT (MCG)

[Atomboy]

The Blues really missed the four soft free kicks normally paid to Curnow

 

[SC_Power]

Sums it up well

That’s pretty intense post-match analysis by Andy Maher, bit harsh don’t you think?

 

[Former Decathlete]

Jack Silvagni is so unco and clumsy.
He falls over a lot and pushes people in the back a lot
Should have more frees paid against him imo.

 

[Xtreme]

Sums it up well

Melts worse than most posters on here

 

[Atomboy]

Jack Silvagni is so unco and clumsy.
He falls over a not and pushes people in the back a lot
Should have had more frees paid against him imo.

His eyes are also too close together.

It makes me feel uncomfortable.

Vossy asked him to play the Curnow role.

So he did.

But without the physique.
Or the footy smarts.
Or the umpire love.
Or the hair.

Motlop is the biggest cat in the AFL. Shits his pants under immediate physical pressure every single contest.

 

[Elixuh]

Motlop is the biggest cat in the AFL. Shits his pants under immediate physical pressure every single contest.

It was reported this week he has put off contract talks to get the best deal he can

Blues better lock him in, beggars can't be choosers.

 

[Lsta062]

Blues by 10 goals.

This one was close! They scored 9 goals

 

[RedWhite4Ever]

Carlton with 25 more inside 50's for the game, 53 more disposals for the game and 37 more kicks for the game and they lost. This is an all-time VFL/AFL record.

 

[Elixuh]

Carlton by 200+.

What's the all-time biggest margin?

This guys the kiss of death, started making Carlton finals threads last year before they had their inevitable implosion.

Load up on the tigers.

Like clockwork.

 

[boncer34]

No.

We had to endure the pain.

Their turn.

About that

 

[smasha]

Amazing night.

 

[Black Saab]

i know its only pre season, but if carlton can beat gws by 10 goals in the pre season, then what the hell are they going to do to this vfl side?

Ummm...

 

[Lach72]

Trainor, Armstrong and Lalor looked like The Shield.

I think I was more impressed by Trainor than Lalor. Kid that young as third tall/KPB was seriously composed.

Impressive

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Jack Silvagni is so unco and clumsy.
He falls over a lot and pushes people in the back a lot
Should have more frees paid against him imo.

Just like his dad

 

[LuckyBounce!]

It really is a united thread this one. Good work by Carlton bringing everyone together!

 

[Sir_Loin]

Best poll in the history of big footy

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I remember saying last year they needed to chase Brad Close or Shaun Mannagh over Sam Dekoning but their fans, like their club, seem fixated on big name stars

Yep rather than selling the farm to get pick 3 why on earth not try and improve their mediums/smalls. You literally can’t win without them.

As meh as Silvagni is he was their only half competent forward all night..and Vossy in his absolute wisdom had him in the backline till halfway through the 4th.

BREAKING NEWS BREAKING NEWS

AFL Commission to hold CRISIS MEETING after Collingwood and Carlton lose their opening games in embarrassing circumstances. Umpires have been urged to give both teams a better run for the remainder of the season.

Andrew Dillon is also said to be under fire after new broadcast arrangements have caused confusion in the media. An unnamed source said, ”the new broadcast arrangements have meant that we have more commentators and there is confusion as to who is the greatest player in the AFL, Patrick Cripps or Nick Daicos. Commentators have been massively glazing both players, but the football public is not buying it. This has lead to instability at both Carlton and Collingwood, which has negatively impacted team performance.”

ROAR!

 

[dean33]

Take the 4pts and move on. Good win but let's not get ahead of ourselves, it's only Carlton.

 

[Coolangatta]

lmfao Carlton. **** me, so close to putting $5 on the Tigers today, this just was such a... Carlton thing to do I was not that surprised at the result.

 

[Nugett]

Richmond have already finished rebuilding before Carlton have.

Rebuilds are bloody hard work. Carlton supporters were telling us all last year

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE

After the disastrous start to the season, the AFL Commission said to be close to announcing new BROWNLOW VOTING ARRANGEMENTS which will see BOTH P. Cripps and N. Daicos awarded THREE VOTES when Carlton and Collingwood meet in Round 4 and Round 17.

An unnamed source representing the AFL Commission stated, “This arrangement should help our media partners as they can say that both Cripps and Nick Daicos are the greatest player in the competition simultaneously. The AFL media unit have dubbed this approach THE DOUBLE GLAZING POLICY and they have encouraged all broadcast partners to get on board.
