Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 5 - Saints v Tigers Thurs April 15th 7:20pm EST (Marvel) Tigercast Link in OP!

[telsor]

Probably the team doing dumb, undisciplined sh*t?

Like being first to the ball?

You're lucky that your team doesn't have that problem.

 

[Boristown]

Like being first to the ball?

You're lucky that your team doesn't have that problem.

Yeah, that's it, your side gives away frees because it's first to the ball.

 

[Multicoloured Hippo]

Going by this years performances, if the Saints rock up for 4 qtrs, they'll probably win.

Stats suggest they don't do that very often though.

Should be a fun game to watch hopefully, can't wait.

 

[CarnTheScray]

Like being first to the ball?

We tried using that argument. BigFooty didn’t like it.

 

[damicky]

We give away a lot of free kicks from being aggressive & playing on the edge

There are times like last week when we don’t get a good run from the umps

It’s definitely not one or the other ... it’s a combination of both

 

[Gavin Excell]

Saints too flimsy
Tiger by 4 goals

 

[CaptchaProofBot]

so no Marshall & Zak

 

[projectv]

Marshall a late out really hurts.

 

[The 747]

Hoping for a good contest tonight, but feel the gap in class is going to be obvious.

 

[The 747]

David King following direction to face the camera front on and with a suit jacket on - hiding the fact he now looks like Humpty Dumpty. How about eat less Kingy?

 

[nr914064]

Did you see the teams?

Marshall is playing, backed up by Carlisle who has been more than good as the alternate ruck the last two games. Tigers playing one ruck.

Key defenders: Howard or Carlisle for Lynch and Battle for Riewoldt.

Have another look bro!

We are screwed. Tigers by 55 now. Hardwick might play to give dusty a rest. My as well. We have Paul Hunter and Luke Dunstan as our ruckman and on baller. ouch. SANFL seconds v AFL tonight.

 

[swanssince2002]

As a neutral just hoping that St Kilda makes it competitive. Some key outs fosho

 

[Plugger35]

Marshall a late out replaced by Paul Hunter.

If Richmond don't win now some serious questions will need to be asked about them.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Marshall and Jones huge, huge outs.

Paul Hunter wasn’t AFL standard in the first two rounds and he comes back in to replace Marshall, and last week Jones had 10 clearances, 12 contested possessions and went at 88% efficiency, and he provides our midfield with a real point of difference, with his explosive burst speed.

Replacing him is Dunstan, who is the opposite of quick, and hasn’t played since R1 last year.

We now have way too much of the same thing in the midfield, with Jones and Gresham (9 clearances in his last full game, in R2) missing, and Steele, Crouch, Bytel and Dunstan in there and all inside “bulls”, who lack burst speed.

These key personnel losses is like our final with them last year all over again.

 

[Multicoloured Hippo]

Dog move from the AFL for the punters. 2 late outs, teams are always delayed now too. Makes tipping easier though!

[The Dice Man]

Marshall a late out replaced by Paul Hunter.

If Richmond don't win now some serious questions will need to be asked about them.

How serious?

 

[aussierulesrules]

How serious?

Pretty serious.

The 1-2 punch of Ryder and Marshall was our real point of difference last year, and neither of them are playing tonight, and Jones and Gresham are the two that have a point of difference in our midfield, with their speed and in Gresham’s case agility/evasiveness/creativity.

Now we have someone who has proved to be sub-standard in the ruck and an extremely one-paced and same-same inside brigade. Plus missing other best 22 guys in Hannebery, Paton and Geary.

And we’re off just a 5 day break!

If you’re not able to beat us under these circumstances it would be reasonable to ask some questions.

 

[The Dice Man]

All I hear is a lot of excuses for losing, before the siren has even sounded.

I think we'll stick to the marathon plan, we'll either just do enough for a small win, or lose. Don't see us playing that "well" if that makes sense.

Yep, agree 100%, still a danger game though. It’s teams with players out that are dangerous sometimes, the others lift intensity . Full team lifting is always better together even with a few best out.

 

[HBF]

Be keen to see how Richmond back up after that epic against Port last week.

 

[Toump Ass]

He's in his third season with the Saints and he's played 13 games total. Bit of a stretch to consider him best 22 IMO.
