Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 16 - Lions v Demons Fri June 28th 7:40pm AEST (Gabba)

[Countryfooty1]

And what better way to arrest the momentum than waiting till close to the end of the last quarter to activate the sub.

Especially when the bloke you sub off is the turnover king and shouldn't get a game as a forward in the 3rds

 

[Countryfooty1]

At least he took some marks tonight. Poor bloke is getting played out of position every week. He's a horrendous forward.

Ya reckon? Way over hyped for mine.

His last 5 games before tonight been really good. Cost Brisbane a lot in the first 3 quarters by fumbling everything that came his way. Cleaned it up a fair bit in the last.

Melbourne in last week’s final term
+
Melbourne in this week’s final term

= 0 goals, 4 behinds

Little bit of an issue there.

yeah Petty and Langdon killed us. needed 1 goal to ice the game and they kicked 0.6 between them.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Yep

Reverse psychology is a powerful force that no one can compute.

Works like a charm everytime.

 

[lionshine]

BT at the end with Lions leading 86-80 “FRITSCH TO WIN IT FOR MELBOURNE!!”

He also declared the win to Melbourne 7 points up with 5 minutes left.

Bloke is a deadset moron

 

[bloodsbigot]

BT reckons that Fritsch shot is worth 7 points?

 

[HTPunter]

Now FoxFooty saying it was a great game.

No one has the gumption to call it the way it is.

It’s a tale as old as time - if the margin is close at the end it’s a “great game”. Always been called like that

 

[blueiris]

Thank #### that games over but what a goal from Suitcase

They call me Bruce clearly played he's best game in he's short career

It's fantastic to have Wash back thought he was a massive reason we won that run in the last quarter

Dunks definitely BOG for mine

Scary thing is it's probably correct

 

[HTPunter]

Petty is the worst best 22 player in the comp right now.

I feel qualified to comment as I watch 13ish of the other top 20 contenders go about it every week.

Breville's last 5 games all better than tonight. Fumbled most things that come his way for the first 3 quarters. Tidied it up in the last though.

To be fair, I thought Brisbane's best player was Petty.

 

[quotemokc]

Hmmmm I don't know about that umpiring.

You never and I mean NEVER see umpires pay deliberate when the ball is run out of bounds while the player has possession.

NEVER!

Petty to North?

 

[Toffee Lion]

Goodwin said it was the best pressure from Melbourne all year but the stats show not once all night they got to elite pressure.

That's concerning, no?

 

[bzparkes]

Hmmmm I don't know about that umpiring.

You never and I mean NEVER see umpires pay deliberate when the ball is run out of bounds while the player has possession.

NEVER!

Dude, it was a better example than some of the tries that were in Origin on Wednesday.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Hmmmm I don't know about that umpiring.

You never and I mean NEVER see umpires pay deliberate when the ball is run out of bounds while the player has possession.

NEVER!

No one was close to him.

 

[CarterS]

was absolutely horrible acting. If he sold it better it wouldn’t have been paid.

Petty may have been Melbourne worst player but he definitely wasn't our best I think you underestimate how good of a game Dunkley had

NEVER!

mate he dived over the line with ball first like a try with no contact.

He needed to make contact with Brisbane player to disguise it better.

Clear free kick he took on the tackler and force the football out of bounds

A smart player handballs into one of the Lions players boots and takes the free for on the full.

You obviously haven't seen Lachie Murphy play.

 

[Elixuh]

What happened to that Freo guy that tagged me in this thread mid-match to say that Brisbane won't sit higher on the ladder than Freo for decades. Seems to have deleted his comments.

 

[blueiris]

BT's pure idiocy in commentary ruins another classic game.

The best part was when he Confused Rayner song for Charlie’s John Denver and Neil Diamond don’t even sound the same

 

[danster168]

90 seconds to go Neal-Bullen with the dive across the boundary line was the dumbest thing I’d seen for a while, until Rivers took a mark 60 out with 30 seconds to go, milks 20 seconds off the clock, then bombs it nowhere.

What the hell was that?

Rivers is a massive kick. He can make that distance. But he went for the pass. He was waiting for a team mate to say 'take the shot'
