Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 2 - Lions v Demons Fri Marc 4th 7:50pm AEDT (GABBA) Power Out! BT Silenced! Crowds Sing and Dance in the Aisles!

[Billy ray]

There are plenty worse. WC, Freo, Adelaide and GC at the very least

Gc not that bad if take out trumpet at start. Its a great players singing song with gusto

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Same thing happened against Melbourne when they had the lightning against West Coast. Cruising with a 40 point-ish lead before the break and it got cut down to 10 by the end.

It would be a little hard, game is essentially over and you've mentally switched off and then the other team gets a quick run and you can't just switch it back on.

 

[Magma]

fagan about to begin a game of duck duck goose

 

[Daddy Bolt]

Haha fun ending.

Fagan will be pissed, his boys were spent.

Bullshit. Fagan was sitting there scratching his head totally paralysed. Pathetic.

 

[Altum Volantes]

In the English Premier League game Wimbledon-Arsenal match in 1997, the lights ‘failed’ 13 seconds into the second half with the score nil-all. This was due to a Malay/Hong Kong spread betting syndicate disrupting the power and was one of many such lighting "failures" in the League. In 1999 at Charlton Athletic, the syndicate were caught red handed. Back at Charlton, Thirteen seconds in meant that the game could be counted as completed and the score stand and a very nice risk mitigation.

Did a syndicate banking on at least Melbourne being competitive, flick the switch by inducing a power failure.?

Asking for a friend

No.

The Chinese haven’t followed the game at all since Port stopped playing games up there.

Yeah I’m with you, I think GC have a proper footy song. Like it.

 

[LordLucifer]

Lions should be embarrassed about the way they played that 10-mins after the restart, I saw a heap of their players just going through the motions with no intensity or desperation.

They virtually let the Dees do as they pleased thinking that there was no chance of them chasing down that 40-point lead. They squandered a healthy hard-earned lead and got themselves into a position of nearly having it pinched from them.

Do not understand why players put the cue in the rack like that.

 

[Daddy Bolt]

Very interesting if it costs them come finals.

Why. They just had to come out and play like Melbourne did. Simple.

 

[CaptchaProofBot]

"hello darkness my old friend" would have been nice...

 

[blueiris]

You play the Dogs who don't play until tomorrow night

In Melbourne who don’t have to travel nice try though

 

[JasRulz63]

Brisbane's song is the second worst in the league. This sucks ass

I blame the French.

 

[Mop]

Who's the worst?

West Coasts by the length of the Nullabor

Agreed. It was probably a coaching directive. I'm starting to think Fagan has taken the side as far as he can. Other coaches are starting to show him up and he often looks like he has run out of ideas during the match.

 

[danster168]

Not too disappointed with that resulted. Almost pinched the game despite playing only 10 minutes of decent footy. No May, Gawn, Pickett, Petty injured late in the 3rd. Any chance the umps can pay holding the ball? Zac Bailey

got caught plum about 3-4 times and Neale also. Nothing. Lions deserved to win though. Their mids were right on top of ours most of the game.

 

[Erakor]

Lots of people here seem to think a technical issue which is obviously specific to (part of) the Gabba is somehow a state wide issue which is rhe fault of the Queensland government.

It's a joke brah

 

[LordLucifer]

Fair comment too, Fagan has been good for the Lions but you do have to question the instructions he issued during the 'lights out' break.

 

[Brasher]

Seriously put Adelaide in to play the last 10 and Oliver racks up 30 possessions and Petracca kicks 5.

Lose by a point.

We don't need no light delay to do that.

 

[#23 Hill]

The same old excuses. Injuries, umpires and blackouts.

 

[Elixuh]

I wish Tom Browne was there for the game. He would have offered to climb up into the light tower

 

[redstarforever_]

in the end on three separate multis i got lions win, over171.5 and lions 1-39

edit; still alive on just one of them

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

I wonder if the power going pop was related to the transmission issues. A couple of times the broadcast cut out.

 

[Wosh]

My daughter on messenger
‘I want more Kaos! Throw in some crocodiles next time!’

 

[Mop]

My fantasy opponent is a flog and did the dirty.
Took out Marshall, put in his non playing spare and made him captain during the game.

Old mate Oliver is his VC with a 149 score

Carlton have been experts at 4th quarter fadeout in recent times!

You guys are goneski without Gawn.
Won't get near Sydney next week.

Pump West Coast though.
