Autopsy AFL 2026 Round 8 - Eagles v Tigers Sat May 2nd 4:15pm AEST/2:15pm (OS)

[Coasters7]

AFL got their result. One of the most one sided umpiring displays ever. We’d have got a better whistle at the G

 

[Coasters7]

To be fair, with our injury list, and losing Prestia early, it is certainly one of the better wins I have seen.

Got 4 extra inclusions in green today

Was baffling to watch in person

It really was something, as much as people joke about it, it really is a problem. Umps give other teams a lot more leeway then they do us every week

 

[Wosh]

YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

Enjoy, your tenacity was fantastic and properly rewarded

Just wait till Harley is in Victoria and his FA drop dramatically

Rulebook is written in such a way that you can never prove the calls wrong but some of the calls today don’t get paid against Hawthorn or Collingwood

 

[EagleMan87]

Nah stick around mate; those unexpected wins when you're like this are some of the best.

THE_GUN Told ya

 

[purplearmy]

Good to see Waterman having a laugh after another embarrassing loss.

 

[Mop]

He gets the rest of the year, surely?

I ****ing hope not

The umpiring was awful but we should've smashed them

 

[Roobs321]

I will delete my account if we lose


....but we won't

Loser alert

Ths stand rule is absolutely ridiculous, as is the random nature of HTB and high tackle frees. Our turn to be on the end of a few today, but very happy for the young kids to be able to enjoy a win.

 

[Black Saab]

Still can’t stand that ****ing stand 50m penalty.

It's ruining the game. Have to get rid of it.

 

[Coasters7]

Loser alert

Lost by 11 and the Tigs were handed a minimum of 4 goals direct. Every right to be filthy with that. We played poorly but still did enough to win and it was taken from us

 

[Count_Zero]

Its that VICBIAS that got Tigers over the line... wait.... checks the AFL website.... it was played at Optus stadium.

All the excuse about umpiring in the world wont wash away the stink that you lost to Richmond while they were missing half their team. Pathetic job Eagles.

Um maybe rewatch that last quarter. The umpires had to give you a few cause you kept kicking it to our defenders.

 

[largebus]

Extend Double Agent McQualter until 2050.

 

[Smotie2]

He gets the rest of the year, surely?

**** me if he gets the rest of the year.

He can **** right off...he's just an extension of Simpson.

Mate you can't blame the umps for this one.

Yes they were biased as all **** but no more than usual against us.

The eagles were trash..trash game plan..trash execution...useless coach and coaching staff...trash selections.

We are lost and will be for a long time

 

[Yellow Feathers]

Oh dear, West Coast. Oh dear.
Got a few genuine stars coming through but a few more years of pain to go.

 

[Handsuper47]

So glad to see the boys get the win, but I do wonder where West Coast go from here. In the past month they've been smashed by 100+ points twice, and now they just lost at home to the bottom of the ladder side with 17 players out injured, and after only winning one game LAST season surely they need to asking if Mini is the right person at all.

 

[dean33]

Yep, fair. In terms of adversity, I reckon this would be #1.

We were playing a pretty poor team. I remember the game v port away when we didn't have any of cotch, dusty, rance and Jack for the first time and we got the w. Last year Rd 1 v Carlton better. I still expected us to win today.

 

[THE_GUN]

THE_GUN Told ya

Yeah but it was the umpires fault - apparently
