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

[deck]

You're really clueless. GWS will get all the free kicks.

Free kick ladder says otherwise. +47 vs -58.

Never seen a supporter base so woe is me over umpiring when the reality is they have had it so good.

 

[StackedHunch]

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

The first one he elbowed him from behind, the second he bumped him when the ball was dead.

Amazing - both horrendous and idiotic opinions. So much in common...

 

[ShooterMcGavin8]

“This is not a free kick in pre-season” sorry John Ralph who the **** are you LOL. You can’t even get a promotion over Jay ****ing Clark.

Ralphy has never umpired a game in his life and reckons he’s the authority lol. **** off loser.

Most pathetic scene on the tv tonight. Downright embarrassed himself.

 

[DaicosDisciple35]

I don’t like either one.

I can understand how the first gets paid though, if the umpire is monitoring the whole 50, and sees O’Connor hit Rayner from behind (which he does do), and Rayner goes down, it’d be hard to tell whether he dived as he did or was actually hit hard.

The second one is a shocker, the umpire was right there and absolutely should have seen that there was nothing in that.

At the same time, what is to be gained by Guthrie doing that? given what he had just seen it was a completely unnecessary risk to take for little gain.

Nothing in it?

Guthrie runs from 50m away to shove a player to the ground off the ball in dead time for literally zero reason other than to attack a player… like it or not it was ****ing stupid and deserved a free.

 

[Timothy Luncheon]

Pretty bad umpiring decisions, but holy hell do the commentators want to talk about it any more? Would they waffle on this much if it was another team?

 

[CobberRodgers]

Hmm, enjoying seeing these Vic muppets squirm after the Rayner free kicks, ngl.

You know every non Geelong supporting Victorian wants the Lions to win yeah?

 

[Lach72]

The Lohmann free was there

Was it?

Watch every forward’s leading patterns. They all push off and turn to make the lead

 

[raffrox]

Ok so now there's rules to do you can boo? Get a grip snowflake. Grow a spine.

When snowflake gets invoked you know that you really are losing the argument.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

‘Let’s hope Geelong can win’ - this is top shelf commentary

Extraordinary outburst!!

I feel like I'm sitting in the outer with the booze hound deadshot yobbo's.

This is just epic melting from the professionals!

[bluebaggerjuls]

No one in VIC wants Geelong to win this lol. Get your head right vic teams hate each other we’ve got no ‘state solidarity’ as you suggest.

Anyone that suggest otherwise is either an idiot or wears a tin foil hat to breakfast lunch and dinner

 

[DaicosDisciple35]

Most pathetic scene on the tv tonight. Downright embarrassed himself.

He’s done this kinda shit before but that was a next level melt. He’s a puddle of a person.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

lol absolutely pathetic!!

 

[JasRulz63]

We won't win this because Geelong are all over us, but if we do, I'll watch the post game coverage purely because Jon Ralph may cry on national TV.

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Cats will come out and flog them this half.

 

[Hollow Knight]

After being robbed multiple times at Kardinia Park by blatant last minute umpire bulkshittery, I’m sleeping easy.

 

[Joffaboy]

Have a listen to the whinging on the television. **** me, don't ever upset the precious VFL

Still salty of getting humiliated last night hey?

 

[ShooterMcGavin8]

Please win Brisbane. PLEASE

 

[chickenonachain]

Game last night was umpired good, tonight's shithouse

 

[Elixuh]

any chance you watched any of the game. its literally the only thing to talk about. The game was over until the umpires had psychotic episodes.

Danny, we need a big half. Need you to cheer us on. Rayner already with 2 goals!

 

[Hollow Knight]

Cats will come out and flog them this half.

Feels that way.

 

[DaicosDisciple35]

Anyone that suggest otherwise is either an idiot or wears a tin foil hat to breakfast lunch and dinner

The Perth sun does things to people

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Side note - you can't be a fan and say you just want consistent umpiring but ALSO complain that they don't change how they apply the rules because it's a final.

 

[mouncey2franklin]

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.

This is the kind of take I would expect on reddit.

You can not do what Stewart did. You've never been able to do that. Ever.
