Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 8 - Saints v Dockers Fri May 2nd 7:40pm AEST (Marvel)

[XhazzafootyX]

Thank god longmuir played a vanilla gameplay vs the all stars

Well we still sell a stadium out and most game days threads see the highest post count ever when we play.

This is just crud right now.

So on field success is now good crowd numbers?
I remember when Carlton fans considered on field success as winning finals.

ETA: pretty sure the Eagles still have the biggest supporter base in the country.

Was the umpire hearing that from another umpire, or was that the completely above-board off-field feedback?

I think it was Sportsbet...

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Those who forked out money to attend this deserve a refund.

No they don't. Most of them accept Lyon as coach.
You reap what you sow.

 

[black is White]

Pies supporters!

It's true mate you can't deny it. The whole league was wanting you guys to not be on a Thursday or Friday again for years and the AFL kept giving them to you just to produce crap like what we're seeing now.

no. Wheres the fumbling? Wheres the horrendous no pressure misses?
You and the rest of these complainers - this is a coaching masterclass and off the charts pressure from a 9-15 side against a side that should be top 4 in their cycle and talent. Bloody awesome tackling. Understand what you are watching.

Can the saints keep it up?
probably not.
Freo by 18 when the flood gates open.
Will go do a live bet. make some $$$

These Ross Lyon snoozefests have taken you nowhere.

St Kilda were better under Ratts

 

[Delisted]

"Who hasn't he played for?" then. We really need to get you that editor.

Don’t need one. You follow me and quote my every post and fix it for me.

 

[LightTower4]

Not often a team has one major at half time but is still in it.

 

[MJG14]

I had low expectations for this match but it's somehow worse than I expected.

Not quite the worst match of all time though. There's a few others ahead of this, some of which involve Ross.

Edited for factual accuracy.

Just trying to help. Keep smiling.

Look at the talent in Freo's team compared to the talent in St Kilda's. Insane scoreline given the disparity.

Ross Lyon and his team are taking the Freo coaches to school here.

What can Freo do in the second half to adjust?

The whole game has been a fumbling, horrendous show of skill and game plan. It’s pretty much a pile of crap heated up in a microwave and served up to people. Hopefully channel 7 wakes up to themselves and puts farmer wants a wife on after half time and gives their viewers a full game tomorrow to pay them back.

Why do Freo fans and management stand for this crap

If they have a crack and play attacking football they'd be a real handful. It's just staggering how badly run they are

What do you suggest we do mate?

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

That was the most interesting part of this game that umpiring stuff.

It seems like absolute howlers or outliners are being recalled?

Massive can of worms brewing

 

[Lia]

Longmuir is so dog, wasting Freo's talent with this vanilla crap.

 

[Freomaniac]

There is no sparkle from Narkle.

I don't even want Ky Pickett to be traded to the dockers for 2 reasons.

1. Demons will screw the dockers in a trade asking for 3 picks in the 1st round.

2. Kysiah Pickett will barely touch the ball with the poor midfield delivery

This forum and social media in general wants it! Regardless of result it makes people talk. Who the hell is talking about this game? Besides those saying it is a crap fixture by the AFL.

Carlton play on prime time no matter win lose or draw by 50pts either way people are talking and social media is nuts. But anyway lets have this shit fest tonight in Friday prime time.

 

[Billy ray]

This should be a gather round game at barossa

Yeah, we were garbage and deserved to be shunned from those slots. But Adelaide v Carlton or even you guys v Geelong would shit all over whatever this disgrace is. And you don't need to be an oracle to recognise this was always going to be a debacle. Last nights scheduling was also bizarre.

 

[LordLucifer]

This is another hard game to watch, its not much better than last night's farce.

Shame that Name a Game is no more.
The sales figures for this classic would be interesting.

 

[RAPPA]

This is the perfect match up to kill the game as a spectacle.
