Autopsy AFL 2022 Round 16 - Suns v Pies Sat July 2nd 7:25pm EST (Metricon)

[Rob]

only yourselves to blame suns

Yeah fair point. They got 14 points up, all the play and they went defensive.

 

[WilloTree]

Isn't that Ginnivan slide actually what the rule was brought in for?

Yes

 

[Sherrinator]

Pies close game record in recent weeks has been crazy. They’ve won in like every scenario. Honestly have to wonder if they can pinch the flag this year.

They’re garbage are you blind lol

 

[brmi]

Umpires decide another game. * me they need to be held to account more than they are.

 

[Scythe94]

God Gold Coast are frustrating to watch. How many times have they had a team on the ropes the last few years and shat the bed late?

Also, if that was Dew's coaching having all his players sucked into the contest at half back with no forwards holding their shape ahead of the ball for a dump kick, he's not up to it.

 

[Ice-Wolf]

The non noble Htb then to pay one against collins is why I hate afl sometimes

Have been doing the same s**t all weekend not calling obvious ones and then calling ones where the player hasn't even gotten clean possession of the ball.

 

[BandF]

Woo-hoo, thanks for the coin Pies/Umpires

 

[estibador]

Who was that umpire in the middle at the end?

That was as blatant an example of trying to get one team the win as I've ever seen. Completely ignores Ginnivan taking out the legs and seconds later calls HTB on Collins when he was never even tackled.

Disgraceful, he needs to be reprimanded and dropped. Blatant bias on show.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Unlucky Suns. The pies luck will run out eventually, after all no side has won the flag the year after finishing 13th or lower.

 

[SSwans2011]

The rules are broken. Don't blame the umpires at all. The Commission are obsessed with overcomplicating the laws of the game.

 

[Jibroni]

GC only themselves to blame, Pies were better when it mattered. That loss will really hurt.

 

[kreglze]

Few questionable calls at the end going against us, but once again, only ourselves to blame with awful goal kicking.

holding the ball with 2 mins to go but the umpire didn't have the nads to call it. pathetic

 

[bzparkes]

It was telling that the shot of Dew during the Collingwood shot was him fuming about the HTB decisions at the end there. Didn't take an experienced lip reader to figure that out.

 

[Occidental]

Magnificent to fight back and hold on.
But it may end up being a Pyrrhic victory if Darcy is done.

 

[Ice-Wolf]

GC only themselves to blame, Pies were better when it mattered. That loss will really hurt.

Before the game when they paid off the Umpires?

 

[danster168]

but Gold Coast only have themselves to blame. Tried to save the game with 10 minutes to go. dumb. dumb. dumb.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

This is one of many things I don't follow in the contemporary game. With a minute to go, Suns get a turnover in the midfield, and nobody up forward to kick the ball to. Wouldn't you think you'd at least have someone in a position where they could snare a goal? Collingwood deserved their win.

 

[garlic munchers]

suns stiff with those calls in the last few mins. they don't get 3-4 HTB yet one against them. Amateur hour again.

FWIW, Stewie should be asking the VFL for a please explain for that Noble non call. Cost GC the game.

The Crisp throw not called in the centre was also crucial.

 

[WestCoast05]

* me the umpires ignore 3 then gift a bullshit free to Pies

And they were kinda right to ignore them.
They were 50/50s and by leaving them you encourage ballwinning.

Just a shame they had to insert themselves when they did, took the energy right out of a cracking contest.

 

[MKMatty]

-Noble HTB
-De Goey HTB
-Ginnivan slide tackle

But sure, penalise the guy who is yet to take clean possession of the ball.

 

[raskolnikov]

God Gold Coast are frustrating to watch. How many times have they had a team on the ropes the last few years and shat the bed late?

They've been completely dudded by the umpires each time.

 

[MickG88]

Still salty about the 2010 bounce away from Milne?

What does that have to with what happened in the last 3 minutes of the game?

Yeah I reckon that's a good call. I don't have a problem with letting those go, but then by pulling one out with 90 seconds to go that wasn't even close to the ones they ignore just screams s**t umpiring. Then go back to ignoring it again.

Good umpiring is fundamentally about consistency. Whatever your interpretation you have to stick with it. Not yo-yo around in a close game in the last 3 minutes.

 

[Ice-Wolf]

And they were kinda right to ignore them.

The problem is that they didn't ignore the much more iffy one (if it even was a holding the ball at all)
