Autopsy AFL 2020 Premiership Season Second Qualifying Final - Lions v Tigers Fri October 2nd 7:50pm AEST (Gabba) Match Highlights in OP

[Corkintheocean]

Not even close. The game was hardly called fairly. Richmond choked by the umps and were still good enough to fight it out. Brisbane don't look good enough without the help.

Brrrrrrrrm Brrrrrrrrrrm here comes Black Saab in here to sputter his carcinogenic nonsense.

Just had word that Dylan Grimes has rocked up to the Gabba a few minutes ago. Was wondering when he’d show up.

Waiting for a lift from Aarts?

I TIPPED THIS!

Well got that completely wrong thought Richmond would run over the top of them but the Lions absorbed Richmond best in the 3rd i dont think there has been a better 2 quarter performance in a final than what Neale did out there.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Pretty churlish and ungracious on the Tigers Board. Opening post from the moderator on the autopsy thread is a threat to hand out bans to opposition posters. Very sour losers.

We shouldnt have given away all those 50s to give away the momentum we had in that first half. That killed us and made them believe.

All 4 of them were completely bogus. Don't sweat it.

 

[Fadge]

I'm asking a question you tell me?

Your question suggested those 3 teams would prefer to play Brisbane at home in a Prelim (who are undefeated there all year) than Richmond on a neutral ground.

My question stands, why the heck would you suggest that?

 

[Vitalogy]

Well done Brisbane. Outplayed us and won the crucial balls. We were sloppy for sure... but I think our defensive unit didn't have an influence on the match. Bring on next week and hopefully Port.

What?? What are you smoking.....

 

[Black Saab]

Should hand the cup straight to the QLD premier. She has won it for them this year.

Well said. The umpiring proved it. The Lions will fold in the Prelim. They a good side but they won't win the flag.

Brisbane aggression = Fine
Richmond aggression = Not fine

Dude, off topic sorry, but loving you avatar/gif. WOOOOOOOHHHHH!!!

 

[Mister B]

we were flat. Brisbane were great.

Kudos.to the Lions

Don't know that Richmond were flat. They were really impressive for the first 40 minutes. If your flat you get blown out early. I think Brisbane just worked that bit harder, at times they played Richmond at their own game forcing it forward at all costs.

 

[Hoops]

Trumps gonna die, Richmond lose. Great day for humankind

Come on that's really terrible thing to say. It's always hard to win interstate

 

[WillHayward]

Seriously is Eddie coked up on air?

The way he yapped away at Charlie then was very odd.

I think he charlied Charlie.

 

[Black Saab]

Pfft. They've got to get past next week first.

The only way Lions make the GF is if your mob win tomorrow and beat Geelong.

 

[Dr Awkward]

Let's discuss the Tigers fumble and turnovers. Haven't seen the Tigers do both of them so often for a long time. Why did the Tiges keep bombing long into their forward 50 which made it easy for Andrews to get hist fist to it?

Yeah I agree, we made some uncharacteristic fumbles, sometimes caught holding onto the ball too long. Sometimes handballing to Nankervis for no reason.

Sounds like there's a lot of sand in certain places.

This is what I don't get, everyone seems to think this Richmond team is so good you have to perform miracles to beat them. As good as they are and they are sublime, one little chink in their system - expose it, like what Bris did then you can win.

Whichever way you boil it down and dissect it Richmond do not have THE best list in this comp, one would argue that wc and giants do. Their list is very very good but it does not rely on personnel - it's their system you have to beat.

It's what Collingwood relied on in 2018 to get as far as they did, no one would argue they had the best list that year, was very very good but not the best and since that GF they've been exposed because the opp has worked out their system.

Hopefully this is a sign and the dogs or the saints can expose them next week.

I think with just about everything going wrong for the Tigers and just about everything going right for the Lions, we were still very much a winnable chance.

If the group can refocus quickly I think they are a class above the Dogs and Saints, but I think the challenge of going into a PF under quarantine or fly in on the day and then back out quarantine again if we won would is going to make the Premiership too great a challenge.

I think we had to win tonight, and that needed some things to go right, not everything going wrong.

Suck a big fat one Tiger supporters. Biggest bunch of sooky flogs on Big Footy. Not so big and tough away from the MCG are we?

Season not over yet champ

 

[ashep]

Matthews's goals/minutes equation is the best PR the AFL ever got. Conned fans into thinking every game is on a knife edge.

 

[Sweet Jesus]

Yeah I agree, we made some uncharacteristic fumbles

I noticed a lot of fumbling when Mabior Chol was nearby. Double grabbing at balls.

LOL you were not good enough nothing to do with umps

Fagan brilliant

My question stands, why the **** would you suggest that?

I'm not saying it would be easy just saying Richmond have been the best team in the competition in the past three seasons. Personally I would rather the lesser experienced Brisbane but not with any confidence. The same reason why I wouldn't want to get Hawthorn in a prelim from 13-15
