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

[demondavey]

Alll you w***ers can get fcked

Every single finals game you’ve played since 2016 you’ve won the free kick count. That wasn’t a free kick in the middle.

 

[Scotland]

Treloar 2 kicks 8 handballs 1 mark 0 scoring shots playing a forward role.

Just bizarre. Must be injured.

 

[Lampers]

Disgraceful umpiring aside, not good from the Lions. I love Fagan but the finals record is so far from good enough

Just validates what some of the great Geelong teams of the late 80s through mid 90s showed - attractive, attacking footy with mediocre defence gets shown up at the pointy end of the year.

Brisbane have some good individual proper defenders, but the foot speed is bad with the talls plus Rich and Birchall. Their good midfielders favour pushing forward over helping down back.

Only one point in it tonight, but I reckon Brisbane need to sort those game plan and personnel problems to go that next step.

 

[adogsfan5]

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.

YOU BARRACK FOR ESSENDON.

 

[Inspector Malceski]

It seems everytime the dogs needed a free kick; the ups would give it!

 

[WillHayward]

One of the worst deliberates I have ever seen.

It's not ****ing deliberate anymore

 

[bonedry]

No Weightman or Bontempelli, Port should romp it in.

Its ok thought...the umps will lift to get them over the line

 

[stefcep]

i checked around 3/4 time. It was 16-20 Dogs favour.

8 - 3 in the last including the shitful one against Daniel.

Correct should have been 12-24 at 3/4

 

[dean33]

well done umps, brisbane surged back , but you pulled some arsey decisions to drag the dogs over the line
loved the token free against to provide a wafer thin excuse, that you were jus incompetant both ways
had a soft spot for doggies and lions and just wanted to see a close game decided by skill
game ruined by umpiring

Was a great game, stop looking at the negatives and enjoy the game. Shocking decisions both ways. Sad if that ruined the game for you.

 

[Engimal v3]

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.

Such an embarrassing post
Screenshotting so that you can't delete later out of regret lmao

 

[bullish23]

Hamish talking up the 2016 Bulldogs fairytale, can they do it again? No mention of the umpiring armchair ride they got back then and are getting now.

How much of your life is consumed about dogs and umpires? You need help my friend.

 

[Lsta062]

I thought the umps stitched up GWS pretty badly last night but this is just obvious cheating for the Vic clubs now

This isn’t about Vic vs non-Vic given that Essendon - one of the big Victorian clubs - received the same treatment when playing Bulldogs.

This is specifically about Geelong and Bulldogs in this finals series and the way umpires treat them vs their opponents.

 

[Hoops]

Darcy complaining about that deliberate free, didn't say a peep about all the bullshit calls that went the Dogs way.

He did though

 

[MickG88]

Wow.... Bulldogs the team that was touted as the best this year, early premiership favourites beat the Lions who were missing two of their key forwards and a up and coming mid forward beast. But it only took the help of the umps and loss of two of there players for the Doggies to win by a point. Port are going to smash the Dogs, Dixon will ruin the dogs backline.

I really do hope none of the people complaining about the umpires also wanted Toby Greene

suspended for bumping one of tonight’s flogs!

 

[Stubbie Holder]

The Fitzroy Bears out in straight sets again

 

[kickazz]

I was surprised that last ruck block free was paid but it was there. You must contest and let your opponent contest, not just look at him and stop him.

 

[toxic]

A miskick is not insufficient attempt.

Yes it is

The rule is based on the player keeping the ball in play

 

[Proud New Dad]

Umpiring was garbage, but it's hard to ignore Brisbane putting two very kickable goals out on the full in the last 10 minutes...

 

[SuperSteele22]

It was a free. The rule now is you have to show "sufficient intent" to keep the ball in play.
It's no longer "deliberate" out of bounds.
James Brayshaw should know this but he doesn't. He said it wasn't "deliberate".
It wasn't deliberate but that's no longer the rule.
They've been paying these ones all year.

Was blatantly obvious by the inwards kicking action that the intention was to keep it in. Brayshaw wasn't commentating tonight either

 

[FreoRicci]

1/6 in finals for Brisbane. 5 of those at home.
3 top 4 finishes now wasted.

 

[blue harvest]

It was a free. The rule now is you have to show "sufficient intent" to keep the ball in play.

He did show sufficient intent though.
It was a miskick.

 

[carloss]

The lopsided count is one thing but the main thing was how many shocking calls that went against the Lions.

Essendon lost by nearly 50 and didn’t kick a goal in the 2nd half so can’t say the bad calls cost them the game. Lions can definitely say it did.

Two terrible, absolutely terrible calls in a row just before half time when Johannisen kicked a behind. Pretty big behind.

#freekickbulldogs is a thing.

5 out of their first 7 goals came from frees.

 

[10571z]

I felt so sick watching Duryea bust his ass in that final contest 1 on 1 against Cameron. Huge play by him

 

[WillHayward]

The two killers were

1. Taking the ball from Rich when he was kicking inside 50.
2. The centre bounce free.
