Autopsy 2023 Rd 24 Giants end Blues winning streak

[MrsEddieBetts]

what did Greene say?

that Weiters "could be in a bit of trouble" and that he expected a free

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

Toby hasn’t helped him in the post match interview.. poor form by him I reckon

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Nothing to worry about with Westering. Toby, a great player but your comments were a joke.

I think they showed him the footage and he said it was alright, didn't he?

 

[NewDarkNavyBlues]

Green threw Weitering under the bus in the post game. What a tool.

 

[xDQ82x]

I'm still a big believer after the excitement of getting Charlie the Coleman we started to cruise.

Got Walsh, cerra and gov a run.

Anyone who thinks dow isn't best 22 doesn't know football.

100% Pitt. Harry in the ruck looks like me in my 1 year of year 9's footy. Scared, cold and afraid.

Looks that way when marking too atm.

Weak hands.

When you have to win, you put everything on the line. When you gain nothing by winning aside from keeping a streak going, you hold back a little to make sure you are there for the finals. It's common sense. Why go into the finals more bashed up than you need to be?

100% u could see our tackles were a little soft not wanting to get rubbed out.

Green threw Weitering under the bus in the post game. What a tool.

Yeah I thought that too. His finger doesn't actually go in the eye...should be fine

 

[Zlatan]

what did Greene say?

They asked him if there was anything in the Weitering incident and like the campaigner he is said (paraphrasing) “I think he’s in a bit of trouble, didn’t I get done for that before”

 

[Blues_1864]

Well done Giants, much better than us, wanted it more. Happy to stomp on the Bulldogs' fingers. Didn't mind the prospect of a drive-by on the Saints: you want a boutique stadium for a final, how bout Homebush? Ah well. Never mind.

Briggs is a much better ruckman than I thought, and they got us in the middle. Another twist in the ruck saga. Cerra and Walsh will be better for the run... but we need Cripps back in there. Hewett and Dow were overwhelmed today.

 

[WalshYouLegend]

Not much for Carlton to play or risk injuries for after Charlie Coleman medal win, so they just seemed to take the foot off the gas and play conservatively till next week when it matters. Fair enough.

With Cripps and Doc back next week we’ll be full strength and playing an elimination final with consequences.

Nah, he saw the footage right after saying that and said 'yeah, that's alright, that's fine ... I was hoping for a free kick, that's fine.'

 

[Wickzki]

that Weiters "could be in a bit of trouble" and that he expected a free

And that he got suspended for it.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

They asked him if there was anything in the Weitering incident and like the campaigner he is said (paraphrasing) “I think he’s in a bit of trouble, didn’t I get done for that before”

Then he said, nah that's alright, that's fine when he saw the footage. People only telling half the story here.

I was surprised that he said anything, but if the tribunal uses the "victim's" post-game statement in any way it's a bigger joke than the non-review against Adelaide

 

[Zlatan]

Then he said, nah that's alright, that's fine when he saw the footage. People only telling half the story here.

I didn’t see this part - was this right after the part I quoted?

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Then he said, nah that's alright, that's fine when he saw the footage. People only telling half the story here.

I took that to mean he was being like "that's fine" as walking back his comments so as not to question the umpiring
I don't know how to explain it
I didn't take it that he was saying the action was fine

 

[Korn]

I think Weitering will be fine, But it is still a very stupid and unnecessary thing to do.

 

[Accidental genius]

I thought our pressure was still ok/good so intent was there I thought but in terms of skill/polish ball movement etc we looked a little like we did before winning streak

 

[Chief]

didn’t I get done for that before

Yeah for reaching around the head and gouging with no real reason.

 

[rp84]

Don't know how I feel.

Seemed the superior team until Charlie got his Coleman then it all went to shit.

We only put cue away halfway through the third but they smashed us before that.

Not sure we're good enough to decide when or not to play.

Bad memories of a swans final

 

[HarryFlashman]

Anyone else notice we didn’t even try to bring the ball thru the corridor today.
Highly suspicious how we step across the ground too.
At no point did we really try to curb what they were doing.

 

[jungojungojungo]

Dumb question, but the gouge/claret on Greene didn't come from Weitering did it? If he drew blood, we in trouble.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

He says it right as the crucial moment was being shown. I saw it as ticking it off as Weitering being fine.
