Autopsy AFL 2026 Opening Round - Suns v Cats Fri March 6th 8:05pm AEDT (People First)

[Bedi]

Making Geelong look like school boys

GC will be scary if they can play like this away from home

Be afraid. Be very afraid

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

How is J Clark playing AFL?
He is hopeless

 

[LionsOrDieTrion]

Hard to believe this team nearly stole a flag last year.

on the GC to play footy or to surf?

 

[Rod Stroker]

very rarely see Geelong get dismantled like this.

This would be the third loss in a row since Buckley joined

 

[Elixuh]

$1.01 odds that Scotty blames this one on Opening round and academies

Tinder ads with Tammy

Gold Coast got a lot of picks in the last draft, they paid for that with Jack Lukosius (pick 2 in a super draft) in 2024 and multiple best 23 players in the last trade period. Anyone who thinks that they didn't pay much wasn't paying attention or is just making bad failth arguments.

Especially when Richmond gave up less for an even bigger haul in a much stronger draft the year before.

It can be true that they gave up a lot but also that they didn’t give up anywhere close to what those picks/players were worth.

It was a good job by their club to take advantage of the system that was highly in their favor.

maybe he'll subtly blame it on Bucks

"..we had a new coaching line up"

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Haven’t seen Geelong this bad since they got smashed by the Pies in 08.

 

[Randomizor]

Knew this would happen.

Geelongs best attribute was their professionalism. Now their coach is going off in press conferences and Smith is doing whatever he wants, unpunished. They’re done

He is hopeless

Close Mullins and Humphries be lucky to get another gig.

 

[Hoops]

I wonder how many reversals we see when a run down tackle is executed d and the player is pushed. Hopefully it's maintained

 

[RU_]

When was the last time Geelong got done by 100+?

 

[lizard man]

They are looking pretty meek at the moment.

Not looking great but they will probably have a big last quarter

Well I’m not unhappy at all about this result.

You can never read too much into the first round tho.

 

[projectv]

Getting ugly now.

What?

They got 5 first round picks in the cheap last year , and the compensation they got for Luko was more than he was worth.

His original draft order is irrelevant

 

[VL3OJ]

It appears Geelong have been reading the Neville Bartos chronicles


What are you talking about?
There's no cash here. .
Here, there's no cash.
Alright? Cash. No.
Robbo? No cash.

 

[Daka]

Best game Petracca has played in 2 years.

 

[Dee Train]

Dees dodged a bullet overlooking Buckley.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

It can be true that they gave up a lot but also that they didn’t give up anywhere close to what those picks/players were worth.

It was a good job by their club to take advantage of the system that was highly in their favor.

Richmond gave up even less for even more in a stronger draft, but there's no complaining about that.

 

[Cyber_punk]

When was the last time Geelong got done by 100+?

Vs Sydney 10 or so years ago?

 

[Chuckie357]

I've never seen Max Holmes play this badly

What’s his squealing stats up too?

 

[Pancakes]

When was the last time Geelong got done by 100+?

2014 against the Swans

They have only lost 12 games by 100+ in their history
