Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 21 - Cats v Port Sat August 5th 7:25pm EST (GMHBA)

[The 747]

I have watched this entire game on mute, was that a good decision?

 

[PhatBoy]

Port might be missing the tall timber at both ends of the ground but when their midfield gets going they are good to watch.

Their kicking has been exceptional

 

[ptrg]

Ah the old, run out, tell a player he’s ok, thumbs up, run back Doctor move

nothingsuss

 

[windyhill]

Did well Jonas.

 

[Black Saab]

Duursma has done some handy things this qtr.

 

[Redline]

Port did the right thing and gave him a concussion test so presume he is okay but Marshall doesn't look right to me. Looks a bit dazed

Proves me wrong and takes a big mark.

Geelong are just a team of individuals rather than a championship team outfit. Too busy drinking their own bath water rather than doing the one percenters and covering all bases.

 

[windyhill]

Fair shiner incoming for Marshall.

 

[twiggy4PM]

Nice mark and goal by Marshall. Wonder if he will remember it?

Yeah that’s what it is

 

[ptrg]

Hawkins gets away with 5 of them a game, all resulting in goals

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Soft Free Kick

 

[windyhill]

Yep, that’s slack Port.

 

[ptrg]

Hand clearly hit it - all players reacted.

but no, a defender touching it doesn’t mean dead you morons

 

[Kram]

Selfish Cameron.

 

[candyapple]

Wasn't a free to Cameron going by what Hawkins does to defenders each week for the last 10 years

 

[ptrg]

Despite what the moron said from the arc (touched behind the line?), that’s the right outcome - ball is still alive even if touched by a defender, and then it crossed the line without any Geelong player making contact.

behind is correct decision. Shame literally none of the “experts” commentating have a clue about the rules of the sport they’re paid to comment on..

 

[YouBeauty]

Holy shit the commentators don't even know the rules. Calling the call dead because it was touched lol.. embarrassing.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Why are Cats fans booing something that was confirmed on video? Lmao. Talk about entitled. Smh. Their inevitable fall is so overdue.

 

[Roby]

Cats getting an absolute ride with the umps

Art Vandelay_ disliked this post, how clueless

Oh yeah crowds only boo stuff that’s a cut and dried incorrect call, or deliberate dirty play. I’ve never heard a crowd, before tonight, boo anything else. Ever.

AFL is so amateur in the way it's run, broadcasted, commentated on, umpired etc.

Said pregame we needed Bruhn, Atkins and Holmes to get 20+ disposals. Only one of them on track do so and it's now Port midfield getting on top.
Need a big last quarter from Holmes.
