Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 4 - Dogs v Lions Sat April 10th 1:35pm EST (Mars Stadium, Ballarat)

[Brunswick Trap King]

Victorian clubs still have to go to Perth though.

Lol fair but at least that's where their actual home ground is.

 

[Chaisa]

Has this game been as average as it appears?

 

[JamesCroft89]

How do trash like Lachie McNeil and Anthony Scott get games at AFL level?

 

[Sweet Jesus]

This is among the worst games I've watched this season.

 

[The 747]

Not sure how the Dogs haven't managed to blow this game out, especially after what they did last week.

Your mob is not in form and some key blokes are off their food - but Brisbane are a much better side than North Melbourne. Been beaten today but haven't stopped competing and trying to win.

Dwayne Russell. Commentates like he’s barracking for whoever is playing the Lions.

Ballarat factor

 

[The 747]

Has this game been as average as it appears?

Yeah hasn't been great. A few moments early but pretty congested and fumbly.

Had someone on his hammer and JJ appears to grab him before he grabs the ball. You ever played football champ? When you know someone is about to nail you, often not taking possession and getting the free kick is the best option. And he knew JJ was behind him.

He could have soccered the ball, punched the ball away, stopped to discuss the weather, crack open a Snickers?

Has this game been as average as it appears?

Quite dull, umpires have been an issue the whole match. Quality has been rough, wind causing issues, match has only had 1 or 2 highlights for neutrals.

 

[Back One Out]

Free kicks

W Bulldogs... 30
Brisbane...... 14

The umpires' pet doggies have been kissed on dick again

 

[CakeEater]

Htb not paid against Bont there.

 

[TheBont]

Not banning people from the threads about the umpiring anymore?

wet, cold & windy - what were you expecting?...

 

[TheBont]

Htb not paid against Bont there.

They haven’t been paying all the ones against lions either.

 

[And_ROOS]

Htb not paid against Bont there.

Absolutely stone cold FK. Picks it up, takes steps, gets an arm pinned and just drops it.

 

[XhazzafootyX]

The bulldogs will go deep into finals with umpiring like this

 

[Macca18]

Pretty expected result today in these type of conditions in Ballarat. Low scoring scrap with the Dogs winning.

I can still see the Lions winning 6 of their next 7 (looking at their fixture) and staying well in contention for top 4.

 

[Sweet Jesus]

wet, cold & windy - what were you expecting?...

You can still have decent games in tricky conditions.

Why does it matter that it's cold? Does cold air stop players hitting a target?

Nor has it been that wet, apart from a five-minute burst.

 

[CakeEater]

They haven’t been paying all the ones against lions either.

Doesnt matter, they 100% should have paid it.

 

[JamesCroft89]

wet, cold & windy - what were you expecting?...

Its not even that wet.

The bulldogs should be thrashing them, but their forward line is garbage, and their kicking into the forward line is laughable.

 

[Brunswick Trap King]

Game on!

 

[Mister B]

Well that's a goal and a half. Where's that been all game Daniher?

 

[The 747]

Ridiculous goal Daniher
