Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 23 - Dogs v Port Fri August 20th 7:50pm EST (Marvel)

[Elixuh]

Bont clearly playing injured, needs support from his team mates. Can't do it all himself.

 

[BringFevBack2021]

He had a serious concussion.

Disgusting by the club, not protecting him and keeping him out (joking btw)

It’s fine for young talls to have form lapses, he’s a gun. He’ll be fine and will return to his best form at some point. For your sake, I hope it’s next week!

But yeah, club wouldn’t risk him if he had lingering symptoms. 10 year player, can’t risk head injuries.

Those numbers aren't right, it has Dogs percentage as 131.7% which is incorrect.

It won't take much for the Lions to make up the gap. They will flog the Eagles any way.

 

[Chattanooga]

Looks like Bevo's streak of no top 4 finishes in the H&A season will continue.

Not sure that would worry a premiership coach all that much.

 

[Adz2332]

Best part was sealing the game with a throw being called.

 

[Northernsoul74]

Very true. Especially that mullet guy that missed that kick to English

Yep he’s been poor for a while. You can say his name, it’s Bailey Smith.

Yeah, Dogs percentage is 132.8.
so Brisbane 10 point win leaves them further behind.
Do your own maths if you want.

Quite a few on here with egg on face at the start of the thread!

No it doesn't because the Lions are at 132.7 just 0.1% behind them.

Far out. Just started following footy?

Think man, think

 

[Dogga6]

no.

incredible

Melbourne 2004.

Sitting on top of the ladder after round 18 only to lose the last 4 games in a row and then get eliminated in the final against Essendon.

Has every feel about this.

 

[FreoRicci]

Doesn’t make any sense at all, doesn’t seem up to being a solo ruck

English has been awful this season. Guy yet again needs to bulk up. Darcy at pick 38. English at 19. Pretty damning

 

[Hollow Knight]

No it doesn't because the Lions are at 132.7 just 0.1% behind them.

It depends how much the Eagles score. We need to kick 33 percent more than the Eagles.

 

[ClintEastwood]

Bonner the workmanlike player of the game. Destroyed Liberatore

Drew you mean?

Port odds must firm now after that stirring win.

I think every fan loves the way Boak and Gray go about it.

 

[PrisonBars4life]

If ever a team pinched a game its Port. Don't hold much confidence in them after tonight, the Dogs were just that fraction better than Port , which was shown throughout the game.
But it was a battle of attricion, weird game, and those few minutes at the last 5 or so minutes Port had the sway and clung on desperately, I really think the Dogs were much better over all on the night, but Port won.

I am sceptical about how far they will go in the finals, you couldn't be super confidant after that , looking the loser and pinching it.

Still they did it to us once just finished short of the win and we went on to a flag.

But I am curious to read what Port people think , I reckon the team losing for most of the night, won the match??

Does that worry you about next weeks finals. Although you may get a home final. Your skipper is a diamond , only for him you lose, that is not a good sign?

Port won literally every meaningful stat. Just a bizarre take. If we kicked straight, it was a 4-5 goal win.

Yep, there was so much hype about him and it’s amounted to nothing so far.

 

[g_TRAIN]

English is rubbish ruck.. If he was a half-decent ruck he would be a great player because he's quite a useful forward. But he's also not good enough to play as a pure forward.

 

[g_TRAIN]

Bruce is a big loss for them I think.

 

[Fade to Gray]

If its a draw tomorrow night , port will go 3rd

How?

Port 68 - 126.3%
Melb 66 - 132.3%
Geel 64 - 128.6%

If it is a draw Melbourne go to 68 points and top position. Geelong goes to 66 points. How can they go above Port Adelaide?

You missed later post

Yeah, no they won't.

I remember having a loose offer to go and work in Japan that year during the finals and thinking “Gee, don’t want to miss it, this could be the year!”.

Then Melbourne Melbourned it up.

Moral of the story - Bulldogs fans, if you’ve got a chance to work in Japan, don’t pass it up on account of the footy.

 

[kaiserchief13]

How?

Port 68 - 126.3%
Melb 66 - 132.3%

Magic, that's how

 

[Interstater]

Stoked that Boak could deliver that game on Friday prime time.
Doesnt get nearly enough love.

Boak has often reminded me of Paul Kelly (the player not the singer) over the years.
