Autopsy AFL 2023 First Semi Final (Week 2) - Demons v Blues Fri Sept 15th 7:50pm EST (MCG)

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Dees to win this one.

 

[JustaBattler]

Have you seen our forward line lately?

Granted Mckay and Martin are N/A but unless we start to lower our eyes even Tony Lockett would struggle to kick a goal.

Pickett + Fitsch - they can kick em from anywhere anytime....same as Petracca....Carltomn have to dominate the contested ball to be in this game with McKay and Martin out.

Melbourne will win this. Overall a better side even with a questionable forward line and we have a lot more to play for.

Pretty sure we're playing for the exact same thing, aren't we?

Shame the focus has been taken off a great game this week. Hopefully by Thursday normality has returned and this game gets the credit it deserves. I hate saying this and Carlton fans will probably hate me saying it more but I hope Carlton absolutely destroys Melbourne.

Maynard knocking Brayshaw out not enough for you? Maybe best to try and hit him with your car and argue it was his fault.

FWIW, if you do make the GF I hope that you get absolutely shafted with a score review.

Cheers

No, Melbourne playing to avoid straight sets (again) Carlton losing is probably not going to keep them in the papers for 8 weeks and put the whole club under pressure until round 1 next year.

I certainly hope our players don't approach the game in the same mindset. A preliminary final berth is on the line for both clubs.

You are not alone.

You are not alone.

I am happily alone. On the couch with a bowl of vanilla connoisseur ice cream.

 

[South of the Yarra]

The passion of last night has died. Back to hating Carlton more than anything on Earth. Go Dees. Smash them.

Carlton will have their time. They’ll be top 2 next year most likely.

I walked past a great deli today. They have these fruitcakes. Love fruitcake. Don’t care what anyone says about it. Picked up the cake, checked the the price, $35. Alas, couldn’t justify.

Home made?

Yes made by the lovely Mrs SOTY

Fruitcake is good but not that good.

I sure hope so!

What better platform is there for that than making a preliminary final this year?

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

Demons are cooked.
They are totally distracted rightly or wrongly by the whole Brayshaw/Maynard incident.
Their minds are not on the job.

Actually, think it will inspire them.

Wait until he references himself about his bold prediction. Can't lose whichever way it turns out.

Winning the GF?

 

[South of the Yarra]

Wait until he references himself about his bold prediction. Can't lose whichever way it turns out.

It is not even a prediction. It is suggesting which team I want to win. Wanting a particular team to win is very different to predicting who wins. I have already made my prediction elsewhere. Nice try

 

[VinnieB]

Goodwin still thinks Melbourne won last week. They may not turn up tomorrow night.

Carlton by either a forfeit, or if Melbourne make the game, the Blues by 47 points.

Gawn to continue turning it over with his hacks forward and Oliver to keep his eyes closed when booting the ball forward.
