Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 16 - Cats v Bombers Sat June 29th 7:30pm AEST (MCG)

[BLUEALLTHRU]

Should be a peaceful week on AFL 360.

Merrett to receive the NACA award this week.

Not A Captains arseh*le.

Shame those diabolical decisions in the third ruined what would have been an interesting game.

Yes it was a blow out in the end but those decisions had a HUGE say - gave the Cats a huge confidence boost and really seemed to throw the Bombers.

You can't blame a couple of umpiring decisions for falling in a heap. Players make mistakes too. It's not like they lost by 10 points

Karma is real. Don't forget.

If that was true, Trump would be in jail and Putin wouldn't be in a position to be a warmonger.

If I'm Brad i will be threatning careers you have the rest of the seaosn to prove u want to be part of a succesfull team if not pack your bags and gtfo

Didn’t he do that at the end of last season? There’s only so many times you can pull that lever

Brads too busy planning his next top up strategy.

We’ll take Guelfi or Langford for our pick 100 and whatever. Sound like a fair deal?

Obvious the message didn't get through needs to get even tougher i would send them to a boot camp and no off season footy trip they will be on stirict traning regime during their holidays

Did I say the umpiring caused them to fall in a heap? Or did I say it changed the momentum and gave the Cats a huge confidence boost?

 

[Hoops]

Legit question re: one arm free HTB.

Is there any where in the rule book or new interpretation that says the Ridley tackle was a free?

I was under the impression arms pinned and no prior was just a quicker whistle

That's what it supposed to have been, but the media got it wrong so now it is. Just like on Touhey

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Really good win for the Cats

Like a collective minds camp?

Like a collective minds camp?

Not like that army style

Geelong looked powerful. Essendon looked like their usual willy-weaky selves when playing a good, physical side under pressure.

Bombers have lost 3 of their last 4 and have Collingwood next Friday night.

We are pretty average

 

[Jimthegreat]

You were smashed by Sydney and lost to Adelaide. I remember when you said you were a certainty for finals in 2022. Remember Thrawn? Remember?

Karma is real. Do not forget that.

We got beat by Geelong in round 7 too. As we found last week, things change alot in 7 weeks. 77pt turnaround against the Cats in that time. Makes a big difference when you're suddenly not playing with half a side full of injuries as we were then, as we were against the Swans too a couple of weeks later.

Since round 4 we have played Freo, GWS, Geelong, Collingwood, Melbourne, Sydney, GC, Port away, Essendon, Geelong again and won 7 of them. If Essendon had that run instead of playing all the shot sides they'd be way, way down the ladder. Certainly well short of the 8.

 

[Hippster]

Only 54k, we would have got more at the MCG next week than that

Worst weather day of the year. They would have had 70k plus if it’s wasn’t freezing and raining. I know quite a few who decided to hit the pub instead.

 

[Red Bull]

Just shut the club down I'm done

Surprising performance tonight after bouncing back hard last week against West Coast …

 

[Jimthegreat]

We are pretty average

That last half was outstanding. First half not so much but it matters in the 2nd half. Powerful effort.

 

[Foucault1989]

Essendon aren't the real deal.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

We shat the bed and made them look good that's what happened

 

[hawkman]

No no. You uncouth floggos can get your arses down the highway.
The seats have been given the Arsenal treatment. Plastic covers to make cleaning your collective stench off much easier

It will be weird not using possibly the greatest road ever made next week, the Geelong bypass

 

[Bunnings]

What about “the edge”

Someone’s edging

 

[Call Me Cake]

Since round 4 we have played Freo, GWS, Geelong, Collingwood, Melbourne, Sydney, GC, Port away, Essendon, Geelong again and won 7 of them. If Essendon had that run instead of playing all the shot sides they'd be way, way down the ladder. Certainly well short of the 8.

You got smashed by Sydney. Lost to Collingwood. LOST to Adelaide (you have to beat these teams), played Brisbane when they were on their knees, Melbourne when they were clearly shot, GC at home and lost to Geelong. Dogs are in the 8 now and you haven't played them. To use "v top 8" mid-year is the dumbest thing ever when it clearly changes.

You'd think you guys would've learned a lot from 2022 and the start of 2023 to know not to go so early. Amazing the tripe you're saying lmao.

 

[Thrawn]

How dumb are you to use "V top 8" mid-year when the 8 clearly changes week to week and the year is far from over. Smells of you in 2022.

It's the best form guide we have so far. The fact that you have a lousy record against top 8 sides, means that you can't compete against your closest competitors. Carlton 2002 is nothing like Carlton this year, it's about as relevant as referring to Essendon '23 when you're clearly better this year. Citing something from 2 years ago is more dumb than referencing actual form.

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

Really good win for the Cats

Dockers too.

Richmond beat the Swans. What's your point? Swans should've beaten close to half a side at home Geelong beat us 7 weeks ago when we had many missing. Get most of them back and look what happened last week.

But, hey loser, we beat Essendon. Essendon proven again to be as weak as shit when playing a good side that puts the heat on them. Best to look forward to September holidays with your run.
