Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 6 - Cats v Swans Sat April 22nd 7:25pm AEST (GMHBA)

[Black Saab]

Nah, we haven't beaten anyone yet.

True.

 

[Rich01]

I know it has nothing to do with your club im saying that if even Jake f***ing Stringer, the worst bloke in the game, did that, I would be aghast if he was suspended.

Thanks for your view, even though I never asked for it.

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Nice to get a big win over the Swannies.

Crazy isn't it. They've done nothing but vehemently defended Duncan since the incident.

Did absolutely nothing wrong. Fox goes well past the ball and slides directly at Duncan.

Can't believe the amount of absolute muppets calling Duncan a thug for doing nothing but bracing for contact.

Are these campaigners really defending a player who just bumped and hit a player in the head. Every single one of this commentary team should be sacked immediately.

Tell me you know nothing about football without telling me.

This competition is NOT a level playing field with what geelong get away with with their home ground advantage

Or what the Dogs get away with. On any ground really.

Mate I actually haven’t given my view of the incident. As my comment was more about the AFL sycophant Whately than the actual adjudication itself.

Which has still taken you multiple posts to realise.

have u ever seen a worse half of football from any team? i havent

Geelong v north 2019. Kicked one goal the entire match in the second quarter.

But what a goal it was!

That was my first and to date only KP experience.

I felt so sorry for the north fans who attended - it was wet, windy, freezing, they kicked 1 goal for the game, and it was as far away from the cheer squad as possible in the afl (the other end of the longest ground in the league)

Some halfwit cats fan was mouthing off at a teenage Roos fan outside the ground after the game and I nearly got in a blue with him

I know people will talk more about Sydney being crap but * Geelong looked good and well back in premiership contention!

They've only beaten bottom of the ladder sides so far, which has helped boost their own ladder position away from where they truly should be.

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

Would need to see it from more angles but to me, there are a few Hawks supporters saying a Geelong player did nothing wrong, so he probably did nothing wrong.

Several Hawks supporters with the voice of reason here, kudos.

Sydney were above us an hour ago

Great night of footy. Happy weekend everyone!

 

[TheEscapeClub]

Come on champ you’ve won 1 more flag in that period of time. It was a ridiculous comment saying that beating people at the pointy end is business as usual because it’s not. It’s not business as usual for anyone.

Perhaps Hawthorn had a claim to it but certainly not Geelong. Never could manage that back to back let along a three peat.

Tough for Swans tonight. Double whammy of destroyed by injuries and having to play on that ground under those conditions. Was never going to end well.

Tough for us you mean not getting to play at home until round 6.

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

Can’t have it both ways… it’s either the new age of the stand rule, 666 and no bumps which means Duncan gets suspended OR it’s no 2022 flag for Geelong.

Bit like the job your team did last week to ensure they didn’t cover the heavily backed line…

You're demented fam

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

To be fair Francis will get the flick when others come back anyway. Probably the least presence of anyone with a bit of size going around.

He was better than McDonald, whom I could have replaced in the Swans team with no one being the wiser.

 

[My Tilly]

Thanks for your view, even though I never asked for it.

Shouldn't you be focusing on your own rotten mobs match tomorrow?
Remember how you guys were bragging about your chances all summer long

Lose again and that is a wrap for 2023.

I enjoy Geelong failing as much as anyone, and the AFL absolutely need to do more to protect players, but in this case Duncan did nothing wrong.

The Swans player caused the impact after overrunning the ball and losing balance and slipping in to Duncan.

Also, Rohan deserved 2 weeks and Day deserved one, based on the way dangerous tackles are being treated by the MRO.

The one with the 4 in front of it is the only one that counts or is remembered stop being a nerd.

Must have been umpiring.

If that was Franklin the commentators would be talking totally different about that. Duncan took his eyes off the footy, ran past it and collected the Swans player in the head with a braced arm. That's weeks. in the contest did Duncan run past the ball?

When in the contest did Duncan run past the ball?

He looked like he was just starting to bend down to try and pick up the ball when Fox runs past the ball slips into his path where Duncan braces at the last moment for contact.

Duncan’s eyes are on the ball until a step or so before contact When Fox comes into his eye line.

I'd have forgiven you for not bringing it up

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Surely you don’t need me to explain why Tom Boyd being traded to the dogs is different to free agents joining a team that was consistently playing late in September.

Tom Boyd being traded to the Western Bulldogs is different to [checks players named in first post] Patrick Dangerfield and Jeremy Cameron being traded to Geelong.
