Autopsy AFL 2025 First Elimination Final - GWS v Hawks Sat Sept 6th 3:15pm AEST (Engie)

[Elixuh]

GWS bottom 5 are horrendous.
Just lost too many players in last few years.

I mean the hawks bottom 5 aren’t great either

 

[Jobe Watson]

Stringer stinking it up.

 

[Coasters7]

Hawks have got this in the bag. Proper finals team.

Redemption chance at AO (of sorts) next week. None of the direct emotion of last year's semi final, but they really should be beating an out of sorts Adelaide.

They’re getting carried by the umps. So many missed free kicks in the Giants forward 50, which is okay in a final, but then they’ll pick out a garbage one down the other end

 

[Rod Stroker]

Hawks clearly the better team so far, but still not over. Under 5 goals is gettable.

 

[Seattle Mariners]

Superb first half by Hawthorn.

Hawthorn’s only concern is Darcy Jones. Remember what happened when Ward went down with his ACL?

 

[thistimeforsure]

Howie doesnt know what pulsating means.

I think he does

 

[Chronz]

they're not "interstate" if you're where those teams are based

I thought this was the vicbias board!

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

If there is a crackdown on diving for frees Hawthorn are stuffed

 

[RCAB]

Wishing injuries upon players ain’t cool

Bigfooty likes to troll Hawthorn and it's allowed, you know that?

 

[SSSSSS]

Kingley's body language suggests he know's the season is 60 minutes away of ending.

Injured players returning have done nothing. And then losing a key player.

Every year teams pick injured/underdone players and it always bites.

Kingsley brought back not one but three.

Time will tell if it's the right move but they've all been invisible this half.

 

[HairyO]

I mean the hawks bottom 5 aren’t great either

Who are our bottom 5?

 

[GoPies1]

So you didn't like Ginnivan when he played for Collingwood?

No, he was a smartass, took drugs and allegedly did an atrocious act against a fellow player.
Only cared about his needs, the races!

[Delisted]

Timothy Barrass has been great.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Could use Briggs striking a few more into the back of the net

 

[hk89]

That isn't our problem, our bottom 5 are well above average in the competition, we lack a super elite top 5.

 

[Visions]

GWS on track to outdo Collingwoods 71 inside 50’s against Adelaide and lose the game with 40 to half time.

 

[We may never win again]

You can take the player out of essendon, but you can’t take the essendon out of the player

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Giants defence deplorable, almost gave up another uncontested mark near the goal square.

Hawks only have 24 inside 50’s

 

[_Mike_]

Newcombe with a monster first half. Kingsley is going to need to come up with a plan to negate him in the second, GWS getting swarmed by numbers at the contest

 

[Coasters7]

Just start paying the HTB how is should be. Leading with the head is your prior, will stop it quick smart

 

[BIGHAWK23]

Hawks fans cheering the injury was crazy work

Well I might have some strong takes in here

But I can’t tolerate that if it’s happening

 

[lmach]

Hawks are kissed. One injury all year, get dominated but the Giants can’t convert while they can’t miss, then umps gift them 5 goals. Then Giants lose one of their three most important players.

 

[mick500]

Dont think this is the Giants year.

I'll probably be wrong but I don't think gws are out of it just yet. Hawks will give them a look. They just need to take their opportunities.

The fact that pies fans believe that rumour as a coping mechanism for Ginnivan is wild

Being a smartass is an insane reason to give

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Any action that isn't a kick or handball should be prior
