    Autopsy Autopsy vs Richmond - the Zurhaar HBF game

    Yes. While still not ideal to give up 8 scoring shots in a quarter, they were all from >30m out and mostly out towards the flanks. We didn’t really let them into dangerous areas even when we conceded more of the run of play than we wanted to. Obviously this cleaned up a fair bit after qt and...

    Player Watch #9: Luke Davies-Uniacke [Part II] - '24 SBM - re-signed until the end of 2032 [7 year deal]

    Love your optimism mr Scab. Realistically Xerri, FOS and Stiffy improve us right away. Goad is likely an upgrade on CCJ[1] but hard to see how we shoehorn him in to the 23 aside from a few development games once X is back. And I wish I had your faith in George and Goater but they both have a lot...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Brisbane

    I mean, we kind of did? Considering the HO disadvantage we conceded, basically breaking even in clearances is ok? Especially given the quality of the Bears’ midfield. And similar last week, though with a different split of CB vs stoppage.

    Mod. Notice VALE @The Other Dean (& best wishes McGooley - NMFC BF's behind you)

    Beautifully said. I had the wonderful privilege to hang with Dean a little bit in latter years. So long pal, the world is poorer for your passing, and take your place at the great gig in the sky.

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Carlton

    Off the top of my head, there are 6 levels of pressure: Set (you have a mark or free); None (in the open with no pressure being applied) Corralling Chasing Closing Physical The ratings are assigned values from 0.75 (set) to 3.75 (physical). The pressure number they quote on the broadcasts...

    Player Watch #30: Charlie Comben - signed til end '27

    Such a great number and I’m still mad at Tay Tay Garner for breaking the 100-gamer streak. I have a similar #23 jumper and finally added Clarko (and Thredgold) a few weeks ago. Only goes as far back as Dench though, not into Dugdale’s era.

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Port Adelaide - Round 1, 2026 - W

    Footy Live app on the iPhone. I imagine they probably have an android app too. The AFLxScore account on twitter will hopefully get back up this year too. It has score probabilities for each shot. And according to CD via the Hun, we were slightly better than our xScore this week.

    AFLW NMFC AFLW 2025 | 27 straight wins | 29 games unbeaten | Back to Back premiers 2024/25 | Invincibles | KLWT is a Roo w/ #37

    tl;dr Yes, and it’s generally a bit higher in the W because the style of play is more congested/contested overall. Longer - there are different types of pressure, from none when you have uncontested use of the ball after a mark or free, through corralling, chasing, closing, directing physical...

    Holy cow, maddie prespakis. Surely professional footballers should be more dedicated to their fitness than that?

    “Bluebaggers” at least as far back as the ‘90s and probably abbreviated to baggers then too. Definitely heard us referred to as “the boners” in that era.

    Tef is/was many things but, weirdly, I never felt like “racist” was one of them.

    Might not have freed up Larkey so much but imo has been very good for Zurhaar and Curtis. Do we dare to dream his long term successor is Goad?

    Autopsy Autopsy vs Freo - ****

    And Luke may have always intended to shoot for goal and didn’t want larkey taking his man down there. Which is what ended up happening. No harm no foul.

    Or I might have been making a point about confirmation bias and the reflexive negativity with a streak of genuine nastiness that has led to me disengaging from bf somewhat.

    Autopsy Autopsy vs WCE

    Why? I love FOS and he’s going to be amazing. Based on the eye test alone he was influential yesterday and I would say it was comfortably his best game so far. But Luke’s game yesterday was easily better. Not just on stats but standing up in big moments, being an important part of the back 6...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs WCE

    Would have thought so. I mean qualitatively the team has done things they haven’t the past few years: finished strong, not dropped their heads when they get behind, come from behind, ice games when leading narrowly, adjust in-game. Far from perfect and you’d like a couple more of those to show...

    Autopsy Autopsy vs WCE

    So FOS, with 5 turnovers from 17 touches is composed beyond his years and a great decision maker, but Luke with 5 from 23 is a shit butcher?

    Because they have oppo analysts and they know it works on us. And the teams down the bottom push in all their chips on trying to knock us over because we’re one of the few winnable games for them.
