Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 13 - BIG FREEZE 9 Demons v Pies Mon June 12th 3:20pm AEST (MCG)

[Macca180]

Port look great at the moment and Geelong have Jeremy Cameron, it's a threatening landscape.

And players to come back.

 

[Macca180]

No chance
They lack the weapons to get the job done and if they finish in the 8, will just be making up the numbers. They'll face a similar result to last year.

Melbourne are a good chance imo.

They missed the best player in the league today and still won. Lol

Pies run off half back can look pretty when it works but the question mark remains is can it hold up to finals like contested footy and pressure, this is what Melbourne have brought today

I would have thought last year losing to both Geelong and Swans by under a goal in finals shows it works. And we are even better this season.

If Oliver had played, Pies would have won. He closes his eyes and kicks forward. Moore would have taken 15 marks.

JDG and Sidebottom would also be handy. But another big forward is what we miss. Johnson has been ok but not the big body that can bring the ball down.

If 8-9 missing from the best 22 won't be acknowledged by neutrals, good luck with 4 or so.

Melbourne's 2nd and 3rd best midfielders are better than Collingwood's, so the flow on effect of missing number one is bigger. Collingwood's wing play is one of their points of difference, so Sidey is a reasonable loss. J.Flucos looked out of sorts too. Then your forward line is dependent on workmanlike talls getting it to ground for your full set of small crumbers - it's never a strong point but was certainly at its weakest today. Plus Elliot still gives another marking option too.

Collingwood were a bit off today and looked leggy - flu affected or coincidental, who knows. I wouldn't be backing against them in a rematch down the line. Ultimately when it comes to finals, any side with a few important pieces out will be vulnerable.

Oliver the best in the league ? Lol I don't see any brownlow or norm smith medals around his neck!!

Almost lost it against a side missing quite a few players. And a few in todays side were battling flu symptoms. Melbournes wins have come against average opposition.

 

[Toump Ass]

Johnson has been ok

Sucked a fat one today tho.

 

[RandB]

Still have Petty to come back too.

He was shiit. Will make way for McStay.

 

[VinnieB]

Still have Petty to come back too.

Whaaaa!!!

 

[Jibroni]

When its all said and done I hope ND and other MND sufferer's lives can improve from this event.

The charity (and both clubs) have done a remarkable job.

See you in September Collingwood.

I love how much you hate losing to Melbourne, keep sooking it up

We never really lose to Melbourne. When was the last time anyway before today?

No Sidebottom
No McStay
Lipinski 1st game of the season….

Demons had it all to play for and got in under a kick.

No Howe

Most of Melbourne's premierships are against Collingwood

When all is said and done, I trust Melbourne (at full strength) to go further than a full strength Collingwood.

Form line and quality of opposition beaten is immaterial

 

[Saab NLAW]

No Howe

Not sure if he'll ever come back, soon to turn 33 and coming back from a serious injury.

Career over

Is that all you’ve got? How many did you attend?

Who were the weapons in 2021 that got the job done?

I'm just enjoying watching your melt

You don’t watch a lot of Dees games do you?

The same weapons that misfired and shot blanks last year
