Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 3 - Suns v Cats Sun April 2nd 2:10pm AEST (HBS)

[pixels]

Geelong really need a win or it will be 4 straight losses to start the season.

 

[SSwans2011]

2 really poor efforts from Casboult. Should be mosntering SDK with his size.

 

[SSwans2011]

I get that you need to get game time into King, but he's been a bit of a liability so far this year.

How was that holding the man on danger? It was holding all the ball every day of the week…

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Must be nice to support a team when you know the umpires are with you.

Dangerfield just dropping the ball and getting a free for it sums it up.

Trying to explain HTB this year to a new fan would be a nightmare.

"You'll be pinged if you have prior opportunity and don't dispose of it or drop it... except for when you aren't pinged. And sometimes you don't actually require prior opportunity."

Umpires really need to crack down on the loophole of players dropping the ball as soon as they're tackled. Geelong aren't the only team doing it, but they're definitely exploiting it today, and occasionally getting rewarded.

its been pretty bad for a while but i definitely feels more random this year than ever. it's horrible

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Suns have started ok.

Used to be you had to at least try to dispose it properly. Now you can just drop it completely and it will be play on

The Suns are right back in this now after a slow start.

They should be winning a game like this if they want to be taken seriously.

Surely you have learnt by now that the umpires favour the big name star players like him.

They play by different rules to the regular players.

He had more time than the GC player who Danger tackled to get a goal from HTB

 

[SSwans2011]

Much better from King

 

[Magma]

cant recall seeing a forward so low on confidence. 3 sitters

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Another sitter dropped by King. Is there such a thing as marking yips?

 

[BringFevBack2021]

King is dropping everything, but is getting to a LOT of contests

Think he’ll be very good later in the year, going to take a while to get going

 

[Plugger35]

Dropping another simple uncontested mark?

He's having a shocker so far.

 

[SSwans2011]

And then that. They need him to get back to his best, but if he doesn't find form soon, it could do serious damage to their season.

Get the sense Chol would be offering more at the moment.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Gold Coast really should be up here, just being very Gold Coast

I was talking about the contest before where he took SDK out which led to Jeffrey's shot on goal. If you're going to drop it at least neutralise it.

 

[Danger Zone]

King is in his own head unfortunately. Just needs to clunk one to get him started.

 

[Stars align]

Young Guthrie throws his hands out 3 times after the free kick to Jeffrey….. no dissent

Yesterdays decision surrounded by a ton of non decisions has to be addressed by the AFL. They’ll just say it was the right call as always though

 

[CrowToon]

Once again Fox prefer the reaction of a player to following the actual ball. So bad.

 

[Zevon]

Genuinely think the Suns have had the Cats on toast in the first half. They just haven’t realised it yet.
