AFL Autopsy JLT 2: 28 point loss to Geelong

[owen87]

Nice run by McGrath, though I did see someone basically grab Tipungwuti by the hair and no high free.

Ridley also looks good again, might be a R1 player?

 

[BomberTime]

Great passage play... commentators banging on about grass growing. Wow.

 

[Mercurial89]

I don't have a problem with them outlawing the studs thing, but surely it's really just high contact? Like the rule should really just be that if studs are involved in head high contact then it's automatically high/severe impact?

The studs s**t is a result of people squealing about something that isn't an issue. It was born out of a player who people don't like doing it.

Knee in the back, ribs, back of head - "oh look at our game it's so majestic and amazing"

Player puts boot out to protect space - "oh my god those studs are going to rip someone open! Quick protect the players!"


Same thing happened when one player got a broken leg from a slide.

Might? He has booked his spot easily

Ridley is a lock for R1.

McGrath omg!

Some nice plays there. Very promising season beckons for Stringer

 

[Bigjobss]

McKenna oversteps, Selwood is bleeding...AFL is back!

 

[mike14]

Not watching but winning 7 of the last 10 clearances sounds like a step in the right direction

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Zaharakis at the stoppage with Shiel and McGrath on the wing, I can’t stress how wrong that is

Suprised with the lack of Zaharakis seeing as he started at a few centre bounces

Don’t care he played in the middle last week aswell I’m pretty sure on that note he will spend some time in there during the season proper.

4 clangers from Shiel, dunno if that's exactly his fault or if we're just getting run under the ball by the cat taking the mark.

I dunno why JLT match centres aren't on the afl home page

* umps always call us play on ALL THE TIME

 

[Loonerty]

Frang

Frang then robbed by umpires.

 

[adsla69k]

Wow umpire

 

[Mercurial89]

Disgusting umpiring.

 

[eDPS]

The umpiring in the first 2 JLT games better not be the standard we get in the real thing

 

[Lore]

D.Clarke, Ham and Draper still on the bench (0%TOG)

Merrett is on 10%

 

[adsla69k]

McKenna nearly ripped open abletts guts on the wing lol

 

[eDPS]

Dylan Shiel my god

 

[Lore]

Still no Zaka but Ridley has a centre clearance now

 

[Loonerty]

Umpires are ****ed. How was that a free against Tippa?
