Autopsy 2023 Rd 22 Blues win a thriller. Finals closer.

[SurreyBlue]

All I'm saying - I believe. The LID is TRULY OFF. We are a premiership chance.

Cant make this stuff up

So much money wasted in private schools educating idiots to be idiots...

I don't understand all the chest beating here. Am I the only one who is not at all happy with the win? Our season now looks to have an asterisk on it all over a rather dubious score review.

Don't get me wrong, 8 in a row looks sweet on paper, but it now looks undeserved.

The game will always have controversies. But this one kills me inside. I want my team fighting and winning fair.

Wouldn't it have also been better to lose that one for the sake of the players' psychological approach. I don't want them getting ahead of themselves now in these last two games.

wtf? In the last 3 weeks, we've knocked off the premiership favourite, and now the new premiership favourite. What more do you want? And winning fair? What wasn't fair about that win?

Just be happy for a change, this is the best we've been in 20+ years.

Have a Bex, a cuppa, and a good lie down....

There are valid reasons for why you should let Dow find a new home - both for the club and the player. There are increasingly more reasons for why you should keep Dow in navy blue.

The kind of game from him that would even make Voss smile.

Tillies into Baggers. What a night.

 

[Accidental genius]

Dows disposal efficiency was 80%. ??

Is that correct?

 

[Magical_EddieBetts]

Mitch Cleary reporting Cez won’t play next week but is a chance against the Giants, we are being conservative with him. Also we expect Walshy will be back next week

Proud of the boys.
Beat another top 4 team.
Courageous win without McGovern, JSOS, Cerra, Walsh, Harry, Kennedy.
Dow was very good again.
Matildas won.
Great night!!

 

[skadoosh]

Newman was awesome yet again.

33 disposals, 9 marks, 521m gained 11 intercepts.

The ball was touched.

Now you can sleep................................your welcome

 

[jimsta10]

So proud for the team and you lot. Those who stood strong and didn’t flinch are seeing unimaginable rewards. The emotional ones (including myself) will be learning a thing or two.

Cannot wait to come back to Oz and watch the repeats.

 

[NavySteel]

If cunners is reported, then so should Melksham at 10:35

Edit: in the fourth qtr

 

[thylacine60]

Yeah- a few posters in here getting too excited over not much.

What’s going to happen in here after number 17?

a pleasant afternoon of bocce......

 

[Wickzki]

Knocking Bitchmond out of the finals in 13 was also pretty damned good!

Great win but that was all that happened on that day. The 99 prelim was also the day we finally got rid of Kenmett and today is the day we made it further into a football World Cup than we've done before.

 

[T2B_]

Dows disposal efficiency was 80%. ??

Is that correct?

It is.

And he had 12 kicks and 8 handballs, so not like he was just giving off handballs all day to get that efficiency. He used it by foot as well.

Dubious?? It was Umpire's Call. The Umpire 1m from the play.

If it helps, you can review below and see the ball on Marchbank's right arm.

 

[tarczonandjane]

I have often wondered how this place would feel if we won a flag. I think I have just had it proven to me in this thread that there would be at least one poster complaining that the grand final showed weaknesses and they were worried about our premiership defence.

 

[Chemical]

Now that I've calmed down a bit, how bad was the umpiring. Melbourne got at least 3 of their goals from shit free kicks.

 

[haveago]

Thank you to the that goal umpire, brilliant soft call, about time we gotta dicey one our way

Amen

Bro wtf. Leave.

EDIT: nah don’t leave x.

But seriously. Marchbank pretty much marked that ball and threw it 10 rows back over the goal line. Nothing dubious about it.

 

[TeeJay Blue]

Just be happy for a change, this is the best we've been in 20+ years.

I'm not talking down our last seven wins. They were superb. We are looking threatening and I'd be lying if I said I didn't get swept up in it a little.

It's just this match which bothers me now. Imagine if we were to play the GF and/or win the flag (don't see it happening myself). Everyone is going to point back to this very game and how it could have wrongly changed everything.

What would be worse is the AFL coming out and agreeing that score review was wrong. I want our season and comeback to be defined by pure determination and hard work. Not by a dodgy goal umpire decision.

 

[BlueBayou]

The only bummer for the day was I went to watch the replay on Poxtel, as I have a series link and record all Carlton games, only to find for some reason it had recorded the Ravens v Brisvegas games of made up teams. Very dissapointed.

I wonder what happened? did the Matilda's rescheduling send us to a different Poxtel channel or something?

 

[ferrisb]

Haha, Vossy answering the first few questions of the presser in fan mode.

Had to stop and turn coach mode back on.

 

[HarryFlashman]

Dows disposal efficiency was 80%. ??

Is that correct?

That would be correct, 7 tackles, 410m gained & 6 score involvements & game high centre clearance- reckon he can play abit
