Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 1 - Hawks v Bombers Fri March 14th 7:40pm AEDT (MCG)

Shiel is so bad now.

 

[Coasters7]

Another great start to the weekend. I will enjoy re reading all these melts

Madness that you have this sort of arrogance when your side has done more than enough to lose both games.

It’s not often 17 supporter bases agree on something but Hawthorn getting a ride is one of them

 

[jdisc]

Predictable result. Bet on Hawks winning but Bombers putting up a fight

 

[SC_Power]

Ah, listening to the Ch 7 commentators being so insistent that we should be playing football at the MCG in Opening Round because we should be playing everywhere, but somehow that argument doesn’t extend to the Closing Round aka the Grand Final.

 

[Delisted]

Nothing better to do with your time ? Poor fella

No not at 10:30 on a Friday.

 

[YeoShuey]

I think they should regrass the stadium during Gather Round. This surface clearly doesn't work.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Hawthorn scored a Nelson.

Where's David Shepherd?

 

[Bagger72]

Bombers got robbed a little bit. Gobsmacked by some frees not paid to the Bombers and ended up losing the free kick count by alot. Good hearted effort.... Hollywood Hawks looking good

I don’t think you’ll make the eight so enjoy.

Thanks for Barass.

They should, but won't.

2 - 0

And the chance to end Carltons season next week. Exciting times for Hokball and the Hollywood Hawks

 

[Wosh]

Thanks for Barass.

Look after him, he’s a gem

 

[Coasters7]

Thanks for Barass.

Enjoy him whilst he lasts mate. His back is cooked and he’ll be lucky to see out half of that contract

Ended up losing the game by a lot too. Hawks won because they were a lot cleaner with the ball and our small forwards were all playing well.

 

[Roobs321]

not gonna happen for the bombers with that odd mix

 

[bzparkes]

Thanks for Barass.

You won't be saying that when you play a side with 2x decent KPFs...

 

[Elixuh]

Thought it was a good showing from Essendon, reamed by the umps

as a west coast fan this is cope

First half for sure. Second half the Bombers played well enough to win. Every time they were gaining momentum however, the umpires conveniently stepped in.

 

[jdisc]

at least the commentary team didnt call chol aliir aliir

They were poor in so many areas though.

Basically every time they got within 20 points they gave up a simple centre bounce goal. Draper kept winning taps but put the ball right down the opposition’s throats. Their “best” kicks were borderline atrocious. And it looked like they were playing in ****ing slippers, the amount of times they fell over.

Poor coaching, poor execution, poor preparation, poor leadership.

We fixed Burgoyne.

We'll get 150 games out of TB now that he doesn't have to fly every two weeks.

Why
2 years back Hawks were miles behind them.and now have clearly moved past them
Essendon are just treading water
