Autopsy AFL 2025 First Preliminary Final - Pies v Lions Sat Sept 20th 5:15pm EST (MCG)

[Madas]

Collingwood will be even weaker next year - too many over 30.

Yep they’re done
Problem for them is Fly is delusional that they’re still in and will try and top up

 

[RandB]

How is David King going on about that free kick. Calling chopping the arms and front on contact...

There is no chop of the arm and it he kind of doesn't even get him that front on.
It probably should be paid but the carry on is amazing. What about the two shit 50m penalties. Nothing.

David King is crying. Going for Pies.

They're all in 'Collingwood suckup mode'. Generally a good career move.
Footy media in this country is pretty munted.

He was like that after our H&A game against the Pies - whined and sooked about the umps costing Collingwood for the entire post-match.

WHY would kingy go for the pies?

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

Thank God Brisbane are getting Oscar Allen to help them out.
22 premier playing 24 premier after beating 23 premier.
Equalisation under Dillon.

They are going to be up for a long time. Getting another top 5 academy kid this year, both ashcroft kids were basically pick 1's, and taken advantage of the FA system more than others.

 

[Roobs321]

wonder if Lions & Broncos can do the double this year

 

[WillHayward]

Is that it for this Pies group?

Time for a rebuild?

Howe
Pendlebury
Sidebottom
Mihocek
Cox
Elliott
Crisp

 

[janty]

always

best player in the comp (early in the season when your team is on top)

and that's not a bad thing

not what you need in a cut-throat sudden death final though

His brother is even worse

 

[ABAB]

Some on the Pies board blaming the umps, but frees were 19/21

I mean, it was an important non call which makes the loss even sweeter lol.

 

[JHF1870]

Some on the Pies board blaming the umps, but frees were 19/21

But it was the game changing momentum against Elliot. Clearly robbed. At least according to the VicBias commentators.

 

[Elixuh]

Elixuh?

My heart rate never got above 67

 

[apollo_creed]

WHY would kingy go for the pies?

Chris Fagan made him look like an idiot so it’s probably more anti-Lions than pro-Collingwood.
If he’s fixated by one decision then it’s pretty clear evidence of a bias of some sort.

 

[LionsOrDieTrion]

Lions had 8 players in years 1-4 out there in a prelim. Another draft rort coming this year as well. 10 more years!

 

[SA HAWK]

Pies needed everything to go right to win it this year.

Just didn’t happen for them.

 

[Port 2004]

WHY would kingy go for the pies?

King is a dickhead.

 

[JHF1870]

Well, I'm signing out. This was a great day for footy.

Who are their 25 and under stars besides N.Daicos? Or even really good B graders? There isn't a lot of depth in that part of the list.

 

[Joffaboy]

You can add Draper to that equation. And a top 5 draft pick via their academy.

Meanwhile non top 8 clubs are overpaying for FA's and cannibals other non top 8 teams.
Fair dinkum, how the AFL has allowed this to happen is appalling.

18.5.2 Free Kicks - Marking Contests A field Umpire shall award a Free Kick in a Marking contest against a Player where the Player:
(d) makes contact to an opposition Player from front-on and whose sole objective is not to contest or spoil a Mark;

He went for the ball and there was absolutely no free kick there. If the broadcasters cared about the game they'd either learn the rules or have someone on the panel who specifically knows what all the rules are. It's a beautiful spoil.

 

[WillHayward]

also pads his stats a lot.

Loopy handballs that sit in the air long enough so he can run around and get the one two.
It's blatant stat padding but hurts the team.

 

[MisterMarcus]

LOL Fagan looks like a midget between Brown and Lynchy....

 

[brutus76]

David King hates finals as his best finals performance was kicking 7 goals and 20+ touches in a game his team lost by 125 points

He's still salty

Add Membry, Frampton to that list.
Can see them falling off the cliff. No real young guns aside from Little Nicky

 

[Sassermon]

Daicos is just too soft to ever be considered among the greats

They
need to stop calling him the little master. That's Gabblet Jrs name

 

[LionsOrDieTrion]

Some on the Pies board blaming the umps, but frees were 19/21

Umpires were decent, even the Starcrvic one he watched the ball and got ball.
