Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 21 - Port v Swans Sat Aug 3rd 7:30pm AEST (AO)

[GoldbergsGold]

When is the last time a first place team lost by 112 points?

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Who is the dickhead at the ground i can hear on the radio screamimg wooh wooh wooh after every goal?

Ken Hinkley.

 

[QuietB]

Port are absolutely a threat. This is a statement performance.

I can't see it - they are too unreliable

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Woah there, close that lid...

You just beat the ladder leaders by 112 points.

That puts you as the new flag favourites to me.

 

[Mayes2Gray]

Collingwood?

Eagles?

 

[windyhill]

Kernahan. 1993. Same pocket. Same result.

How about we see what happens after rd 24.

 

[Lsta062]

Interesting that only the 1st and the 18th side lost by 100+ points.

And the 1st-placed side lost to 18th

 

[WillHayward]

Disappointing Port couldn't crack the magical 150 .

This suggests Sydney are a bit shit

Don’t worry - next time

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Sack Longmire?

 

[tiger_tough]

What a bizarre result

 

[Prince Imperial]

When is the last time a first place team lost by 112 points?

In round 12 of 1983, a top of the ladder NM were beaten by Fitzroy by 150 points. North still finished first at the end of the home and away.

 

[Walter H White]

Port premiers 2024. Ken Hinkley GOAT

And went out in straight sets

 

[Redline]

I was at the game, Port were great, Swans just didn't turn up. They look flat, slow and down on confidence.

I was sitting up high and couldn't believe the space Port forwards got. They just weren't challenged. Rioli literally stood on his own for half the game

Port look a real threat.

 

[TW Sherrin]

What will Longmire complain about this week?

 

[ferball]

this literally proves what fans have been saying all along, that our coach has had us underperforming.

also how many years did our coach waste with his high flood, high dump kicks on Dixons head to bring it to ground for a stoppage in the forward line when our midfield and forward line were capable of so much more..

its like being asked to applaud a man for walking when you've told him that dragging yourself across gravel using your chin isn't the way to do it for 12 years.

I'm sure you actually believe that too.

When he took over youse hadn't finished better than 10th for five years. He had you playing finals very quickly, in this, his 12th year youse have played finals seven times and will probably be top four in four of the last five seasons. Its been 20 years since you've done better ... ie you haven't performed as well as you have in the last five seasons since Essendon last won a final.

And yet you reckon he's the worst thing thats ever happened to you and a bunch of you have spent most of the last five years (with their four top four finishes,) white-anting him.

I'll bet if youse hadn't done that you'd have jagged at least one flag.

 

[ferball]

Sack Longmire?

They have a thread about this.

 

[GoldbergsGold]

In round 12 of 1983, a top of the ladder NM were beaten by Fitzroy by 150 points. North still finished first at the end of the home and away.

And no team has won a premiership losing by 112 points during the season in all VFL/AFL history. Really bad omen for Sydney.

 

[Cool Kangas]

Eagles?

Haha yeah yeah but seriously, if they make the finals they could be a threat…..don’t you think?

 

[Duckimus Prime]

I'll bet if youse hadn't done that you'd have jagged at least one flag.

So Hinkley is such a shit coach that fans have expectations of at least making a Grand Final causes the team to lose...

Port almost certainties for the flag. Port V Dogs GF with Port winning IMO

Really? You don't think The Lions are a chance? Their recent form has been top tier.
