Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 14 - North v Pies Sun June 16th 1pm AEST (Marvel)

[SSSSSS]

Zurhaar cost them the game.

Nine goals up and shitting your sacks umpires or not is embarrassing.

At least there are some green shoots today.

 

[Hawks1523]

You know what's even funnier than a North choke?

A North goal after the siren to win it.

It almost happened

 

[Quinz]

Look forward to the AFL ticking that late call off North fans

 

[Foucault1989]

Different rules for little Nicky

 

[Toffee Lion]

Really nice interview from Maynard.

3 votes - Umps
2 - Clarko
1 - Fisher

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

58 points up but its the umpires fault . Cool story

14 free ls to 3 in the second half is pretty telling.
A lot of clear HTB let go. Obvious 50. Quanyor front on contact that nearly injured 2 North players.
Normally I'd say that the umps can't make that much influence but that was blatant.

 

[HTPunter]

The shinboner spirit

You’re up & about considering your club is killing itself from the inside out and last time it played got done by 90 by Freo

If your benchmark is better than North I suppose it will keep you happy for a while longer

 

[brutus76]

Can't wait until Laura Kane and Steve McBurney sign off on those calls

"NOTHING TO SEE HERE - WAS ALL ABOVE BOARD"

 

[Headless]

Really tough result for North fans, that one. Really intriguing game, though.

 

[CrowToon]

9 goals up and folks here want to blame an umpire call

That isn't how it works.

Teams can give up the lead and not all of sudden be allowed to just be screwed.

 

[thisismyname]

Is that a world record turnaround. That is unbelievably bad from North not to defend.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Worst non-call for a 50m penalty of all time.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

World beating shit the bed performance but North are not easybeats atm.

 

[Joffaboy]

So will the AFL come out about that ONE decision re the 50 or is that only reserved when one of the AFL booster clubs like feeder Gold Coast get beaten?

[RAPPA]

Hard to split Clarko’s coaching and the umpires as the Pies’ best

 

[Retzlaff]

Laura Kane has signed off the non HTB and non 50.

 

[Hawksboy72]

Shouldn't blow a 9 goal lead, but sweet jesus how was that 50 not paid.

is going to get on the ground sobbing and emotionally hug the umpires after this one

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

As a Pies fan, I can't believe that 50 wasn't paid to Nth. There is putting the whistle away, and then there is completely pooing the bed and having a lack of internal fortitude to pay that.
Apologies to Nth fans, would have had a set shot 30 out to win it.

The thing I can see with a lot of those calls is we have the comfort of an upper camera, so can see Naicos didn’t really get a handball etc - but I don’t blame the ump for not being able to see it at ground level in congestion. Saw a swinging fist and the ball moving, handball, play on.

Even Quaynor one had reasons to say play on. Lots of ones where you can see from an umpiring POV that it could have gone either way without having multiple slow mo camera angles. And that’s my biggest weekly defence of umpiring.

The 50 is the one decision where it was pure shitting the bed umpiring, not wanting to pay a big decision in a decisive moment so doesn’t pay it instead. It was a clear mark, clear whistle, Scott heard it, should have been 50.

 

[fuic08]

9 goals up and folks here want to blame an umpire call, damn we are sexy

Nah, it was a whole 2nd half of bad umpiring

 

[Vice]

Clarko secretly loving the umps ballsing that up to distract from one of the worst tactical subs in recent memory.
