Autopsy AFL 2019 Round 19: Gold Coast v Essendon, 4:40pm AEST Metricon Stadium

[Tiger71]

Never in doubt.

You guys like doing it the hard way though lol

22 frees to 11. No worries.

I like how there are still people who believe big free kick differentials are evidence of wrongdoing. Not the brightest.

You enjoy the biggest armchair ride over there.
Course you say it doesn't exist

22 frees to 11. No worries.
Goal stolen from us. No worries.

my favourite was the front on paid to Witts, then not paid to Langford to gift the Suns a goal.
Consistency. Was something like 20 seconds later.

Lol at Gold Coast “10 best 22 out”

Each one of Essendon’s 7 or 8 best 22 that are out are better than any of those 10.

im convinced they're trying to give me a heart attack this year.

Same fan club banging on about it today also has one of the better differentials in the comp over the season. The Suns have one of the worst.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Never in doubt.

Can't wait to win a final this year.

You can whine about umpiring in our games as much as you like, it doesn't change the fact that big free kick differentials aren't evidence the umpires are out to get you. Pretty pathetic actually.

What an ignorant way of looking at it.

Who are you replacing your best 22 players with as compared to them? It's not how good the first 22 players are that matters. It's the difference between how good they are and the depth.

So yes, the Suns outs are comparable, if not more significant.

Lololololol

You’re comparing AA players like Heppell and Hurley to b graders like Will Brodie

Did you even read the post you're responding to? It looks like you failed to grasp the point at all.

 

[Xtreme]

Congratulations, you predicted the favourite to win.

Chief should give you premium membership as a prize.

The point was that Essendon supporters doubted me

But I'll gladly take a premium membership for being right in my prediction AND being an awesome poster in general

Ah yes, the same moron who perceived the commentators as cheering on the Suns today. Clearly has superpowers of discernment to spare.

Funny, a couple of weeks ago they were evidence that we were getting blown.

 

[Roobs321]

Why is this thread infested with West Coast flogs? At least we didn't scrape past Gold Coast at home like West Coast did.

A lot of us live in QLD. And scraping past the Suns at home is fairly standard for us. Even in 2011.

Still, 56 to 17 at HT is hardly scraping past...

 

[SSwans2011]

Lololololol

And you're comparing players like Redman and D. Clarke to Corey Ellis and Jacob Heron...

If an under 16s side loses a gun player that literally carries them on the eve of Finals as compared to Essendon losing Heppell, who is the bigger out to their respective team? Heppell is clearly the better player but Essendon are more likely to be able to cover him than the u16's side their gun. You can't compare the outs without considering who comes in for them. Astonishing that I have to explain that.

You were only 11 points up midway through the 4th.

 

[Roobs321]

You were only 11 points up midway through the 4th.

If the closest your opponent gets after 1/4 time is 11 then you're doing okay. We were only separated by percentage at that time.

Z.Clarke and McNiece wish they were as good as Ellis.

 

[GuzzLG]

Z.Clarke and McNiece wish they were as good as Ellis.

We’re playing Snelling FFS. Wasn’t even on an AFL list 2 months ago and our bottom
6 are supposedly sooo much better than GC’s.

 

[SSwans2011]

Z.Clarke and McNiece wish they were as good as Ellis.

McNiece isn't that bad, is he?

Realistically the Suns probably had a handful of players out there that shouldn't even be on a list but are getting a gig simply because they need mature bodies. I'd even argue someone like Collins is a huge out.

Best Bombers reserves line-up plays the best Suns reserves line-up: who do you think wins?

No idea.

Melbourne’s VFL side > Geelong’s.

What’s your point?

Yeah
