Autopsy Suns v Cats - AFL Rd 10, 2024 - Thursday May 16th 7:00pm - (TIO Stadium)

[ToreadorMarch]

Yep. We have been on the end of games like this constantly.
Anyway game far from over.
Free kicks will even out. Game will slow and become more contested and scores even up.
It will go down to the wire

Being both very kind and oddly scarred by history with this comment

This thread would of gone nuclear if GC was on the receiving end of that free kick count

But cats fans are the worst on big footy

It is an absolute joke but it is against Geelong so play on

 

[GastevsBeard]

I guess you shouldn't complain about the umpires in your post match presser then...

this is pretty f*cked, strictly from an integrity perspective. Scott was pretty reasonable in his presser

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

We may as well be playing on another planet. Can't take a simple mark.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Umpiring is a rort.
We're missing several key players.
We're travelling interstate off a 6 day break.
Suns have 15 first round picks on their list.

When taking all of this into consideration, why are people surprised the Suns are winning?

Some teams have been absolutely bowled over by this season fixturing.

 

[HairyO]

Umpires always reward the team seen as showing the initiative. Trash play gets trash umpiring: Geelong have fully deserved the reaming so far.

HTB hasn't existed all year so there's no point even getting worked up about it. If you are second to the ball all game you lose.

We got pinged 4 or 5 times last week, while getting none for any of our tackles. The umpires just make it up. Prior sometimes means something, sometimes doesnt. Sometimes you can drop it, sometimes you cant. There is no way of knowing what the call will be when they blow their whistle.

I'm not sure Geelong can win another game. But seriously how about the thread Geelong won't loose a game

 

[Mr Meow]

We are Geelong the greatest team of all

The team are terrible right now. Yet still somehow better than Brisbane and with a recent flag to show for it, so we'll live.

Remember kids, don’t do drugs and don’t ream the AFL in press conferences otherwise you too could be on the receiving end of a 17-3 free kick count.

Servers would be down.

 

[catters05]

Selwood flat out saying the indigenous players handle the ball better is a little wild

Not really.

 

[Elixuh]

Darwin doesn’t suit Mitch Cleary.

Thread was started by a Richmond supporter.
Also, it's lose.

You know that was a tinfoil Richmond supporter right?

Yeah exactly, I came to terms with basically not looking for any outcome from a tackle a while ago. Umpires will spin their roulette wheel but 9/10 times a tackle on a player with prior opportunity won't be rewarded. So if you're second to the ball you're stuffed. We just have to accept that's how it is now.

 

[Shai]

Clotheshorses at either end, hope Scotty does some sanding.

But.. the poor kicking and/or positioning isn't helping.

 

[Bongo Drum]

Frees 17-3 lol

Can Scott hold his tongue post-game?

Im not sure if it was Rowell or another player but they were able to spin around a few times and dish out the HB

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

No Journo will be brave enough to bring it up especially if they end up losing.

Akin to bitching on your manager to HR

No he is as bad as the other one.

You get 4 academy players while other clubs like WCE had to wait until pick 40.

We get Collard, a WCE academy player at pick 29.
He should have the option to stay at home, but because he os not in an AFL booster club academy he has to move 4000 kilometres to play.
Why should your four non indigenous players get an advantage over an indigenous player?
Fancy you calling any club tinpot. All you get is leg ups and advantages, the AFL has destroyed the draft for your benefit and your club is still garbage that can't attract a crowd or supporters.
But keep putting your hand out, joke of a club.

I am a Collingwood supporter now living in QLD, I fully believe in the academies, I love what it has done for Jnr footy up here and if they didn't exist the Rugby League clubs can offer kids money in the teen years to get them into league programs (I have been told around 5k for a 16-17yr old) so without the academies and a clear pathway some of these talented kids would be lost. Whilst Gold Coast doesn't have a massive supporter base at the moment the amount of Jnr and youth footy players in QLD has grown massively and is looking great. In years to come seeing GC, Bris and Sydney running around with QLD player and NSW players is a great thing.

Sexton spun throug a few players.

With 1 minute left in 2nd. I could have sworn I saw Cyril in a Hawks hat in the crowd

Is there anyone more fake in the media than Jon Ralph?
