Autopsy AFL 2023 Grand Final - Pies vs Lions Sat Sept 30th 2:30pm EST (MCG)

[Algorithmic Hot Takes]

Biggest ever comeback in a grand final at 3/4 is 24 points in 1984. They’d want to be a bit closer I’d reckon.

Maybe, but it's all mental. They'll both be knackered at that stage with the heat, in this scenario.
The crowd starts "Coooollingwoood, Coooollingwoood", get a quick goal or two, and tired Lions could try and save it, which won't end well if 20 points up with 15 minutes to go...

Your captain won a Brownlow after committing murder. Get back in your blue box.

No one is saying history should be changed. But everyone knows how tainted this premiership was. The fact that you’re here arguing shows how insecure you are. Deep down you know this is undeserved.

Nice that you have a photo of King Patrick on hand though.

Go and enjoy your night flog.

 

[Lethal09]

The Best team all year won it,

Enjoy what is rightfully your cup.

Collingwood were the better team today. Similar to Melbourne in Week 1 of the finals. Arguably the Giants last week.

More scoring opportunities wasted be it behinds or poor F50 play. On this occasion though, it didn't lose them the game.

Brisbane also had many more players who had below-par games (and brain f*rts).

had such a shocker, that I thought he would be subbed out and the forward line re-jigged.

Seriously over-rated IMO.

Yes, some questionable umpiring, but a conspiracy? Too many people people involved in a game for it not to leak out.

Incompetence at many levels of the AFL? You betcha.

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

Will always be a hollow flag. 90% of Australia knows and will never let you forget it

What a flog

You might want to google the word advantage.

The umpire deemed that the kick was advantageous. If the Brisbane player hadn’t of kicked it, they wouldn’t have. Tough pill to swallow, and the rule should be looked at.

 

[Bungeye]

Collingwood have found answers all year! Brisbane looked to be running away with it, when McCarthy goals in the second quarter. The same could be said in the last, but a wonderful goal from De Goey halts their momentum.

It's not luck they win all the close matches, give credit to their clutch goals!!

 

[gillon]

Umpires had an influence but you are kidding if you think the Pies aren’t deserving. Best side all year, found a way to win.

I’m just upset that we didn’t get to see what happened when Neale got that free.

However, Berry giving away the most blatant and careless 50 is what put the game beyond doubt.

Enjoy the win.

You mean the careless 60?

 

[Plugger35]

Jesus you're a giant flog.

I'm not Jesus but if he was still around even he would have thought that Brisbane got crucified today.

At least the Pies won a proper GF this time even if it was due to having another big home ground advantage and a good run with the umpires

 

[Rustin Cohle]

This is some kind of meltdown from Coasters7

Great to see.

 

[Foxx]

Drank a full cup of coffee watching Joe Daniher paused on TV crying. Best coffee I've ever had.

 

[No SPIN]

You weren’t even in control with 1:30 left

BNE had 43, I50’s their 2nd lowest for the year AND since RD1 when they were smashed by PA.
Anything else sport?

This is some kind of meltdown from Coasters7

Champ you’re on Bigfooty trying to defend yourself after your side won a flag. I was nearly blacked out this time in 2018 lmao

WOBBLE WOBBLE

The bloke kicking it over his head while being tackled?

 

[Spiral_Out]

Did you watch the game? No one from Collingwood had any impact outside of Hill and maybe Crisp. Brisbane we’re by far the better team but just weren’t clean enough at crucial moments going forward

ahahahaha truly clueless

De Goey deadly - 2 goals

Titch brickwall - 13 tackles

Crisp, Pendlebury, Daicos, Sidebottom contribute - All with 20+ touches and goals

Hill unstopable - A shot on goal every 3 touches


No McStay, No Adams - Both would have been in and made us far stronger.

No Murphy after Q1


Collingwood led at every single siren

Q1 - 10 points
Q2 - 6 points
Q3 - 4 points
Q4 - 4 points


Truly blinded by emotion.


I dare say you need to drink a lot of water to dilute the dangerous levels of salt in your system.

 

[Sweeetleftfoot]

What a shame that a bad umpiring decision will be remembered more than the game. From the moment the first bounce went awry, i had a feeling this was going to happen.

I know right, was a terrible call. Bailey was so far in the protected zone he may as well been on the mark.

 

[Chronz]

Hah, I wonder how big Fitzeys melt was to be suspended. Icing on the cake.

 

[MagpieTez]

This is some kind of meltdown from Coasters7

Haha yeh he the seems a little upset

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Champ you’re on Bigfooty trying to defend yourself after your side won a flag. I was nearly blacked out this time in 2018 lmao

Cool story. It's almost like people live in different countries with different timezones.

But, by all means, please keep going with your tantrum.

Haha classic

Yes Coll weren’t in control for the ENTiRE game as you mentioned

 

[BringFevBack2021]

You mean the careless 60?

Cmon bro, you really gonna take it away from them over that?

Can’t you be happy for someone else?

It’s just a game mate, have a beer and relax

 

[AppleMagnets]

People talking about the missed called late in the game, that didn’t amount to anything but I find the Cox non call that went to a direct goal was just as dubious if not more because of how open the play was.

Don’t know for certain the rule because there’s so many grey areas in footy but I did think Bailey was way too close in the protected area. Common sense ain’t so common but to me both should be brought back and reset.

 

[Captivating]

16 Grand Finals won - equaling Carlton.

 

[Bald]

The bloke kicking it over his head while being tackled?

Potentially. I know it was deemed advantage as the Brisbane player opted to dispose of the ball after a free kick was paid. Doesn’t really matter what situation they were in really, don’t dispose of the ball if you hear a whistle.
