Autopsy AFL 2025 Second Qualifying Final - Cats v Lions Fri Sept 5th 7:40pm AEST (MCG)

[Happy_Neale]

Zuthrie logic - here’s an umpire paying frees in the goal square for minor incidents, maybe I should shove this guy to the ground right in front of him

 

[Adz2332]

i dislike Geelong as much as the next person but my god that umpiring is embarrassing. who ever paid both of those frees should be stood down for the rest of the finals series

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

The second was there - Guthrie is a knob

Definitely wasn’t.

Both horrific.

 

[DaicosDisciple35]

Stewart free was there too. Umpires will be in their rooms saying yeah we are being booed to **** but the calls were there.

Cats really no one to blame but Zac Guthrie. I’ve never seen such dickhead behaviour lol.

 

[RCAB]

Didn't think I'd see a Hawks fan cry on behalf on Geelong, but it's a strange world we live in.

Yeah there shouldn't be a Brisbane "cheat" team. Bring back Fitzroy.

 

[Generalissimo]

Normally the Fox mob barrack hard against us, but even they think these umps are cooked.

 

[ijax27]

I take my hat off to you sir/madam, you melted better than mozzarella cheese there.

I bet you do a bit of melting over that flag.

 

[YeoShuey]

Stevic and Wiliamson are ordinary as well.

Stevic probably about to reach Grand Final 12 or however many he has umpired already.

 

[windyhill]

hard to say who are pulling harder for the cats - the umps or the commentators?

Aged well.

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Horrific umpiring but dumb by Geelong to push him again.

Would not surprise if Geelong got a massive ride for the rest of the game now

 

[docko911]

****ing hell Geelong, the umps were handing you the game and you just had to keep pushing the rules with your thuggish crap.

Thuggish, Rayner was brushed and then feel over as soon as he felt contact the second time. Bloke laughing about it and lucky players don’t drop players these days. Would be going off on a stretcher otherwise. No place for cheats in this sport!

 

[Lia]

First one was very soft but the second one is a free, Guthrie ran from 20 metres away to make contact. Very dumb.

 

[Delisted]

hope this umpiring continues throughout the weekend. Watson and Gini will kick 26 goals.

 

[Some Idiot]

I don't care what the Geelong guy did - moving the ball 150m to pay a free kick is absolute insanity

THis is total WWF stuff

So what would you do if he punched him in the head?

 

[DaicosDisciple35]

Definitely wasn’t.

Both horrific.

Ofc it was there. Just because they’d already given a soft one doesn’t mean the rule doesn’t apply anymore.

Mentally weak from the cats who I’ve never known to do dumb shit like that. Screams entitled.

 

[hippyhippy]

Two soft free kicks which cost goals but his on earth can anyone complain about it, the whole game is super soft now. Soft free kicks everywhere. It’s all over the ground

Those were bad cause raynor dived for both and in wwe style the umpire fell for it

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

See thats HTB against Geelong there.

Rather than paying the uber soft fk pay the legitmate htb i.50

The interpretation of HTB and Incorrect Disposal was really poor last night too.

Finals used to be 'different' because physicality was stepped up and umpires let it go - these days it seems that physicality is clamped down upon, and Throwing is the new thing to let go in Finals.

Weird.

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

Here we go, the umpire bashers are out.

They bash themselves mate, people just highlight it.

 

[frggr]

How does Rayner look in a mirror and not lose respect for himself?

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Ball taken the length of the field for TWO GOALS as a result of somebody being brushed against. In a final.

This is one of the worst things I have ever seen.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Yeah there shouldn't be a Brisbane "cheat" team. Bring back Fitzroy.

Stay salty!

 

[DanA]

I mean wow the umpiring.

It’s there, both, but damn they are extremely soft.

That happens 100 times every game. If you fundamentally change the way that is umpired it need to be in April not September.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Guthrie did it right in front of the umpire.
If they stop showing them in slow motion you can see the frees are there.

Noone in their right mind can complain about the Guthrie one. It was the clearest free kick of the night and directly in front of the ump

The first one was incredibly soft

 

[BigTacoBandit]

Even after Morris admitted diving when they paid the one against Freo 150m off the ball, the umps fall for it again. Best its ever been....
