Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 17 - Pies v Bombers Fri July 5th 7:40pm AEST (MCG)

[The King!]

Collingwood not keen to man up this quarter

WHE is the ultimate quiet achiever. Very handy utility player

[nipst@r]

Every Essendon player should give their match payment to Merrett

I'd let caddy, dursma and durham keep theres

 

[hawkman]

I think Essendon will be winning this at half time

Not with turnovers like that

You’re on fire old son!

 

[Jimthegreat]

Essendon have lost 3 of their last 4. The Pies have only won 3 1/2 from their last 6. One by just 4pts against Adelaide at the 'G and another against North by a point and conceding a 9-goal start. Other win was against a badly out of form Melbourne.

Fair to say there's not a lot of good form between them. Pies have had injuries to be fair but still....

 

[PerthBoy86]

Schultz the biggest crab in the afl. But he's good at it.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Collingwood seem to be defending too deep. Essendon have been able to play their control game and are starting to look dangerous with overlapping runs.

Pies have a tendency of really ramping up their pressure game in third quarters.

[Franc de Borges]

Richo will be sacked for stating that Daicos has hit just 2 targets from 11 kicks.

 

[Rod Stroker]

For all the shit the umps have copped recently, this has been a pretty well umpired game so far. No howler incidents either way

Still plenty of time though for Sam to drape himself over the ball like a suicide bomber

 

[cactuscall]

"Extremely watchable game"

Yeah the turnovers are epic.

 

[Del208273]

That inbound kick was a coach killer.

Missed by 10m.

Couldn't have kicked it to more free Collingwood players.

 

[branedotorg]

Surprisingly open game, it's an odd watch for two top of the ladder teams

 

[LSRU]

Great half of footy and well umpired.
Miracles do happen.

 

[hawkman]

Daicos nearly took a contested mark

 

[blinkd]

McKay is starting to read those kicks i50

 

[Oscarman]

Daicos nearly took a contested mark

But felt contact and dropped it. Commentators ignore his clangers and jizz about any target found

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Daicos is running at 42% efficiency

Nick daicos dropping the ball was a howler. And redman front on and probably 1 or 2 that could have gone collingwood but fair overall.

 

[hawkman]

"Extremely watchable game"

Yeah the turnovers are epic.

Much more enjoyable than a stagnant game that is full of stoppages

 

[OverseasCrowNA]

Really good game despite the turnovers. Umpires putting it away and both sides attacking the corridor regardless of the risk is quite fun to watch.
