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

[Leon]

The Nick Daicos hate in here is laughable.
He's been one of the best mids in the comp for the last 2 months along with Bont, Heeney and Warner.

Agreed.

Great player, seems a very nice bloke.

I like him a lot.

 

[Drought Break]

QF -6 free kicks
PF +-0 free kicks
GF -6 free kicks

Total: -12 free kicks

Such an amazing run of free kicks

C’mon mate. These muppets just want to focus on the non advantage call in the GF despite Lions getting an armchair ride. Not actual stats and facts

 

[No SPIN]

Let's circle back to the granny when they called 'advantage' to a lions player kicking over his head whilst being tackled instead of calling it back to the Brownlow medallist.

Pies always get the calls so I usually take 3-4 goals off their totals in terms of assessing performances.

I heard you ordered some memorabilia last year for your Expected Score Flag.

 

[No SPIN]

They shouldn't have been playing in the GF to begin with, GWS were stiffed by the umps in the prelim also.

So Coll should have been in 2022 GF because we were stiffed in the PF against Swans.
Geel dodged a bullet.

 

[No SPIN]

yeah we should really celebrate umpire blunders. wake up

Another great win to celebrate but not as satisfying as KB.

 

[No SPIN]

because you can't even deny anything. You can't deny the father sons, you can't deny the nga gifts, you can't deny the umpires, you can't deny that Daicos is soft so you just say 'oh so salty' lol

You actually think you have gravitas on this board - no that’s a joke.

 

[No SPIN]

Yeah, I watched Maynard take his eyes off the ball to block Rioli from getting to the ball drop, then wave his arms around like the complete ****wit he is claiming he was the victim.

Then you watched an AI generated version because that’s not what happened.

 

[No SPIN]

I know but if you watch it, it's clear Maynard's just a spud who only wanted to stop Rioli, then spent the next couple of years crying in the media how he was blocked.

This is also very funny.

I’ll take Leigh Mathews opinion - he said Maynard should have got a free.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

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.

Yeah but it was Bailey Scott...

 

[Monco Matt]

In fairness the only “soft” thing he did there was fumble, but his head was down and McDonald needed to be more careful in approaching him

Think we treat Nick more harshly because:
1. He plays for Collingwood
2. They are the reigning premier
3. He’s a gun

Thank you! Probably the only sensible thing I've read from a Carlton supporter in the thread today. Well done to you!

 

[mumblingpie]

So how many Collingwood fans left at 3/4 time and missed the comeback?

I will admit, I didn’t leave the pub 10 mins into the 3rd but that was because of the half a dozen boozed up North Supporters screaming their heads off

 

[mumblingpie]

And only, only if they favour Collingwood.

Yes exactly, finally found someone with half a brain ey

 

[ashep]

Agreed.

Great player, seems a very nice bloke.

I like him a lot.

It's a knife to the heart every time I hear him speak and am reminded that he's not actually an arrogant flog and is just a pretty chill 21 year old.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

The one that baffles me is the Nick Diacos free, he fends high and ducks but gets the free, can someone explain?

Which one? There were 6 of them and that doesn't even include the non-decisions against him.

 

[bzparkes]

I’ll take Leigh Mathews opinion - he said Maynard should have got a free.

Leigh Matthews reckons Lachie Neale and Abby Holmes' peck after their on field interview was worth air-time on the radio.

 

[bzparkes]

Yes exactly, finally found someone with half a brain ey

Great, between the 2 of you you now have 1 whole brain.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

We had the worst freekick in AFL history paid against us vs Freo that cost us the win, so all that has happened is a well deserved square up. Carlton's greatest season of the last 2 decades DVD is currently getting made and we sit behind them on %. Game in hand but I think Geelong knocks them down a peg anyway next week

No. That has been a free kick for as long as i've been alive. If the umpire calls for the ball, you either give it straight to them or you leave it for them. You don't decide to play pass the parcel with your team mates. Learn the rules!

 

[Leon]

It's a knife to the heart every time I hear him speak and am reminded that he's not actually an arrogant flog and is just a pretty chill 21 year old.

Assume the hate is because of the hype and publicity he gets.

But what can he do?

He’s the son of a former Collingwood champion, is arguably the best player in the comp right now and plays for the most supported team in the league.

Of course he gets hyped up.

Every time I’ve seen him interviewed he seems like a nice and level headed bloke.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

There's never an excuse for bad taste in music.

I think you will find that most of our players are taking the p1ss when it comes to their goal songs...

 

[yeee_haaaa!!!!!]

I was in the dunnies at the G after the Adelaide game. Pies legend next to me let’s rip with “f*ck I love breaking hearts”. I’m starting to lean to his point of view.

The overreaction to the umpiring in here is magnificent. Yes we focus on the decisions late. But what about, say, xerri’s 2 goals in the 2nd quarter that were clearly from umpiring errors? His dive over the fence might generously be attributed to him being off balance, but that was not a free kick. And then the goal that came from the Maynard dump tackle free, the ball was a metre out of bounds when hooked back in by the north player immediately before the free and was not called. 2 gifted goals just as the pies were working their way back into it. Best team over 4 quarters of football won the day, pure and simple.

 

[yeee_haaaa!!!!!]

No. That has been a free kick for as long as i've been alive. If the umpire calls for the ball, you either give it straight to them or you leave it for them. You don't decide to play pass the parcel with your team mates. Learn the rules!

You type very well for a 9 month old. Umpires were told to start paying it as time wasting ahead of last year’s finals.

 

[campbell]

Lucky win, it happens.

what does it say in the scorebook?

 

[Freomaniac]

How is Fisher on an AFL list?

you tell me North picked him up
