Autopsy AFL 2020 Round 18 - Swans v Cats Sun September 20th 3:35pm AEST (Metricon) Match Highlights in OP

[kickazz]

Gary Rohan with a highlight reel of errors and laziness this quarter

Clearly you don't football....

 

[BartBart]

But it is legal so what’s the problem? It’s never been something that’s been policed

Sigh... it is legal if it is part of a legitimate attempt at a mark.

You can't do it to clear space, LAND back on the ground & then mark it.

So don't write obituaries for a proper high mark just yet.

 

[Thedeftouch]

what?

he was all over the shop but he ran his guts out

He only runs when he has the ball. He is extremely lazy in defence and there was a mark he missed near the boundary line where he completely gave up and lay on the ground while the Swans player collected the ball without pressure

 

[Stax on the mill]

He is terribly biased for Geelong, and can rarely find a good word about 2 or 3 teams.

Exact opposite of someone like dunstall who can't find praise for hawthorn, but will praise anyone and everyone

Except Collingwood; and it comes across in his biased commentary when he calls us

 

[Hoops]

Top four, no injuries. Good.

Stanley?

 

[The 747]

Congrats Cats

This does not come across as sour at all coming from a WC supporter.

Oh wait we get to play Port? Awesome.

 

[wilsonmatic]

Geez Paddy any chance you could mention the opposition in your interview you massive flog?

Thanks for nothing Papley

I am all for bagging Gary Rohan but that play he ran himself to exhaustion which is why he crashed.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Well done cats. Too good in end. A change of underpants and on to the finals for you. Hope they or the Eagles win the flag.

Cats v fortunate
Swans cut us up with transition
Papley could have kicked 7

he doesn’t sit there with an atomic clock knowing the exact second the ball is going to drop.

yes he does it to clear space but I very much doubt he also thinks ‘I’ll jump, knee him in the head, get him out of the way, land, steady, and mark.’

it’s just a simple attempt to take a mark and keep his space at the same time

lol.

no he doesn’t mate.

 

[Generalissimo]

Geelong ALWAYS win the close games!
It can't be luck, surely.

We've been so good so long, that's why. Statistics and probability.

Imagine, for the sake of argument, that because of our skill we are on average a 3 goal better side than other teams.

Now, every game is going to have some scatter around that mean 3 goal margin. One goal either way is going to be more common than two goals either way; that is, we're more likely to win by two or four goals than by one or five goals. More likely to win by a goal than to break even.

That's why we have a better chance of winning by a couple of points than losing by a couple of points. The same seems to be true of every team that's been successful for a prolonged period.

Thanks for nothing Papley

The Bulldogs game had a little bit to do with it also.

 

[10571z]

Honestly, Do they play Danger forward if they play Richmond again? They need an edge.

Sydney are everything you want in a rebuild, young kids showing something all over and super competitive and keen.

 

[Hoops]

Than god that's over. That was the most one sided umpiring against Geelong I have seen.

 

[kaiserchief13]

What the game where the coin flip goal review was the difference?

 

[Generalissimo]

what?

he was all over the shop but he ran his guts out

Good time to brush out the cobwebs.

 

[Thedeftouch]

lol.

no he doesn’t mate.

Kk, hope to see him when we line up against you guys on grand final day

 

[Collywobblez]

Well that just proves geelong won’t make it far in finals , definitely the weakest of the top 5

 

[Coolangatta]

I'd rather play the Cats if I were Port. Yes, Geelong might hit top gear in finals and if they do, look out, but their form the past two rounds haven't been great, and historically they're awful after the bye. The Tigers, on the other hand, could beat anyone, anywhere, barring West Coast in Perth imo.

But him landing before marking makes it an unrealistic attempt. He didn't get his hands on the ball whilst in the air which would have made it a mark.

 

[Cyclonus]

Sydney would have dropped two places in the draft order if they'd won that.

does it? I thought an unrealistic attempt was deemed so because he couldn’t actually take the mark?

 

[kickazz]

Stanley?

I heard he'll be good, needed one week
