Autopsy AFL 2025 Rd 16 - Swans v Dogs - Fri June 27th 7:40pm AEST (S.C.G.)

[Chattanooga]

Lol it’s not the Swans nor the city of Sydney that decide the state of the turf Embarrassing for the SCG Trust perhaps you meant?

We’re as critical of the surface as anybody.

A bit touchy?

The reference to 'Sydney' encompasses whoever is at fault.

Settle down and go and make plans for 2026.

 

[Mofra]

The four goals they pulled out their backside from boundary prob evened things out

One of those was pure freak play from Heeney.
Luckily Bont evened that up with his quick snap.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Sydney will trouble teams that play them last half of season

Only xScore can settle this. Missing so many simple set shots is unforgivable though. Bulldogs deserved the win based on being better in that crucial area.

 

[The Airing of Grievances]

Well played Dogs. Sydney gallant in defeat.

Lol it isn’t too late to delete this. Read the post LITERALLY DIRECTLY ABOVE YOURS.

It is possible to be a gracious loser, hopefully you might learn something about being a gracious winner. All the best in the run home to finals, you’ve got a great side.

wtf Grundy was awesome tonight

Especially that last kick that dribbled to a Bulldogs player and went back over his head for a set shot 25m out.

Also liked the non effort to get out marked on the wing and turn it over when the Dogs kicked the match winner.

But facts are he goes missing in finals every single time. But he’s great for Super Coach…

 

[spacedout]

Yeah, because clearly the ground helped the Swans loldickeheadlol

Enough salt in here to put Saxa out of business

 

[aussierulesrules]

Blakey trying to kick that ball late in the game:

 

[Dazb86]

Pretty good game in the end.

Grundy huge midway through the game.

Freijah great

 

[Zevon]

Grundy huge midway through the game.

Freijah great

Thought Freijah was super impressive. Plenty of poise and polish with those finishes.

Mate, he was close to best on.

Frustrating to watch for swans there so many good things but missed the easy shots on goal, even though pressure was great I thought tackling was a bit off, lots of missed tackles.

Grundy had the team on his back in the 2nd and 3rd quarter.

 

[The Airing of Grievances]

What a quality kick by the $million ruckman!

Best of BF. Ignore the guy's immense effort all night, hone in on an error. Like no other player in this comp ever mis-kicked.

 

[eddiesmith]

Grundy had the team on his back in the 2nd and 3rd quarter.

Then fell apart when it mattered? Sounds like his whole career.

But at least he can keep that September holiday booking this year.

 

[Chattanooga]

How did Royce Hart (Darcy) go in the last half?

N V

 

[TruRoo]

Ok to answer my last question - the scg trust.

What ramifications are there for such a bad surface then?

 

[Mr Meow]

Mate, he was close to best on.

Eddiesmith deathrides ex Collingwood players relentlessly. They can never do anything positive. It's really weird to be that bitter, especially when the club moved the player on.

Only saw the last 10 minutes and his usual ‘efforts’

 

[Tenens Pila]

There is a Grounds Manager at the AFL who is responsible for accepting grounds are match-ready.

Time for a bit of head-kicking instead of the superficial crap that the CEO focusses on.

 

[Banyo Bloods]

Congrats to the Dogs the answered every challenge and there were many but their class and composure was too good. Swans too many unforced turnovers to really threaten eventually. Season done (already was) but glad they didn’t give in tonight.

Not really, I like Adam Treloar.

But I said far worse things about the big dud when he stunk it up for Collingwood for many years.

But that’s ok, winning football games was never important for Brodie, he said so himself. He’ll be happy tonight if he was BOG and his team lost.

Umpires did their best to give Sydney the win.

Sydney resorting to doctoring their ground for the match is the biggest lol.

Umpiring standard was terrible all night but neither side benefited from it. I can name just as many terrible decisions that favoured Sydney as did the dogs. Umpires seriously need to learn what incorrect disposal and holding the ball look like

SCG copped a flogging and didnt recover from a concert held earlier in the year, that mentioned it's not up to par. A lot of players were losing their feet & lucky none were injured as a result of the crappy surface
