Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 1 - GWS v North Sat March 16th 4:35pm AEDT (Engie)

[citizen-erased]

Hmm Callaghan (sp) is quite a large unit.

Pies will rue that one a little
Finn and nick from one draft.

 

[mick500]

Gws are much stronger bigger bodies than north, but I don't think north have been disgraced.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Doesn't look good for Goater. Achilles.

I'm glad it wasn't a leg break. The way his foot looked, that's what I thought it was.

You would almost prefer a break to an Achilles.

It's been a decent effort - although at no stage would GWS have been concerned about losing.

 

[Saint12]

Greene has had a mare

 

[Captivating]

I'm glad it wasn't a leg break. The way his foot looked, that's what I thought it was.

A leg break would be a better outcome.

 

[RU_]

I thought he had a compound fracture when the camera first went on him as it looked like he had blood running down his lower shin.

Very shit luck, hopefully it’s a minor injury and not an Achilles.

Relaxed training run.

I'm glad it wasn't a leg break. The way his foot looked, that's what I thought it was.

Honestly if I had to choose between an achilles or a broken leg it would be the broken leg every time.

Achilles for an explosive player like Goater is going to have huge implications on the way he plays going forward.

A leg break would be a better outcome.

100%

 

[EagleMan87]

It's 35+ scoring shots to ~16.

 

[SSSSSS]

They've got all the hall marks of a good team.

Great spine.
Elite midfield.
Good small forwards.

 

[The 747]

It's 35+ scoring shots to ~16.

Bad kicking is bad football.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

They've got all the hall marks of a good team.

Great spine.
Elite midfield.
Good small forwards.

Star players in each line.
Super fit.
Very well coached.
Perfect age/experience profile.

 

[RU_]

I’ve been saying this since their prelim loss last year.

They are going to be very hard to beat.

 

[Outtatym]

'didnt start playing football till age 11' is peak derwayne

 

[catstorm]

Annoying that we had GWS first up.
They will be top 4 for sure.

Based on what? That they beat an ordinary Collingwood and a team who’s highest finishing position for half a decade has been 17th.

 

[The 747]

Time for the best club song in the AFL (again)...

 

[Cmarsh]

Really let ourselves down in front of goal. 36 shots to 17.

 

[docko911]

Giants conveniently winning by 39 points

3 horse race for the premiership

GWS
Sydney
Carlton

Everyone else making up the numbers!

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

Based on what?

Did you not see last year??

They, at this very early stage of the season, seem to have improved.

 

[Cool Kangas]

Oh well. Was to be expected. At least it wasn’t as bad a loss as I thought it would be. Hope Goater is ok

Way too early to come to that conclusion. Half the sides haven't had their first game yet.
