Autopsy AFL 2021 First Semi Final - Lions v Bulldogs Sat September 4th 7:20 EST (Gabba)

[fishardansin]

Let me guess, doggies fans are trying to deny their bullshit umpire gifted victory?

 

[Ati Tude]

In my best Michael Holding voice - Quite a good game that one.

 

[stefcep]

Your club will be deleted soon.

Yours already is

 

[Big Crow]

Lol. This league is a joke.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Look at the Dogs fans who think theyre actually good enough to even go further than tonight as opposed to playing a depleted Lions side and just barely getting over in red time due to crucial frees

Wow.

Never changes.

Days since Bulldogs won a final: 0

 

[Mr Magic]

McCarthy cost the Lions the win with that needless free that gave the ball back after they had the ball and were about to swing into the 50

Dumb player

What was that free kick for?

 

[Kings of Lygon]

Treloar 2 kicks. Should give back his pay for tonight. Absolute passenger

Give it back to Collingwood?

 

[TheBont]

Interesting celebration by smith shooting up

ice in the veins

 

[Jibroni]

Dogs 10 to 2 frees in the last quarter on away turf. When does that ever happen?

 

[Mofra]

He’s not mentally equipped for the pressure cooker atmosphere of a game like that.

He was good in the second half last week and excellent pre-injury.
At this stage you only make marginal changes so he'll get his chance next week to make amends.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

The umpires pulled them over the line from the first quarter, unbelievable but not unexpected.

Crowd knows it to.

Lot of iffy decisions to them to.

The free kick against McInerney was iffy as it was but plucking a free kick from a collision in the forward line when Rich was about to kick in was the biggest stretch I have seen for a while.

Not to mention the Bontempelli mark after McInerney had clear hands on it man in front to

The McInerney one was there, the reversed free when Rich had it on the wing was bullshit.

 

[WillHayward]

His kicking boot is directed to the field of play not the boundary. Opponent puts him off balance. Slews off the side of the boot--->Deliberate?

Mate the rule isn't deliberate.

But nice try on distraction from the Dogs usual favourable run with the frees (29 to 19).

 

[banzai]

I don't think the umps are biased or crooked.
But boy oh boy have the umpiring fraternity forgotten how to umpire finals.
They need to realise the occasion and that it's not about them.

That final point was the direct result of a free in the ruck.
So the game was essentially decided by y the umps.
No sense of occasion..

The ruck free was prob the most blatent out of all the decisions in the last though. It had to be paid.

 

[lollol]

rent free

free kick bulldogs

 

[blue harvest]

Please learn the rule

A miskick is not insufficient attempt.

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Doggies will win the premiership again with this armchair ride.

 

[Handyandy]

you guys are a tougher team than port. Badluck tonight.

your theory will be tested. brisbane are the shit thick meat and potatoe team of the afl and finished about how as possible for such a simplistic team with grade 2 tactics.

 

[srobbo]

Kudos to Duryea for shutting down a red hot Charlie after qtr time. McCrae, Bont & co will get the attention & rightfully so, but this went a long way to keeping the dogs in the game.

 

[Crazy Horse]

Insufficient intent.

And given how that's been umpired all year, it would have been just as rubbish if they didn't pay it.

Agree. Daniel wanted the boundary line and got it, he just wanted it out 20 metres further up the ground. Fair free kick for mine.

 

[Sleutheren]

Yeah celebrate , but don't over do it ?.He always does and doesn't back it up in games like this the fact is 2 years in row double chances and out in straight sets.

He needs to back up 'over celebrating'?

 

[Rod Stroker]

Give it back to Collingwood?

He should give it to charity.

The umpires department.

 

[Stubbie Holder]

LOL, no we won't, they've got a Vic club in each preliminary now, we'll get hammered next week by the cheating scum and the fragile Vic flogs will have their all Vic GF interstate again.
Looking forward to hearing about another non Vic choke to justify it.

As predictable as that last ruck free.

Haha, the inferiority complex never gets old

 

[FFB1]

Great game. Hopefully Bontempelli is right to play next week

Nah hope he’s out and Port smash them next week, can’t get away with that many throws and frees their way again.

 

[toxic]

Re the Caleb Daniel deliberate:

He wasn’t aiming anywhere near the boundary line. It was a hack out of mid air that went as far off the side of his boot as it possibly could have. If a skill error like that is correctly given a free kick then the rule is sh*t.

Correct

Rule is shit

Decision was correct

 

[Call Me Cake]

Haha what a weird post.

You're getting smashed next week. You realise that right? You were unconvincing against a depleted Lions. You're not getting past a prelim let alone a GF.
