Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 17 - Saints v Swans Sun July 7th 3:20pm AEST (Marvel)

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Heeney protected species like Daicos, Cripps, Butters. Nothing to see here. If it was Joe Average from any another side. Offered 1 match for an early plea.

100% if that was Merret he would cop week

 

[TheWhiteRhino]

THEY'LL DEEM IT THAT TO PUT THE BROWNLOW AROUND HIS NECK!

MRP WILL DO SYDNEY A SOLID AS WELL!

I think your Caps Lock is stuck

 

[Bones7677]

This is hilarious. Those were all 100% the right calls. Do you want the umps to throw the rule book out the window when a team's on a roll?

Henry punching Webster was ok?

Yet Shiemakers goal disallowed for his knows what.

 

[Saint12]

Nothing to see here lol

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

Of course it was...project brownlow still on track

OMG shut the **** up. Are you 11 or autistic or something? Chill the hell out.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Even Mooney agrees that's a week

 

[Saint12]

Project lets get heeney off has begun

 

[BomberManU]

The heeney incident was an accident wasn’t it?

The arm didn't swing itself.

 

[Disco Dew]

Has to be a week.

 

[MickG88]

Under the rules it was. The umps have let go PLENTY of holding both ways all day. Let’s not pretend Grundy and Rowbottom aren’t being bragged like nothing before.

It was deliberate

I haven't minded the umpiring so far, I get that Warner is allowed to just drop the ball and Grundy can hold Marshall's arms in the ruck contest but to swing the momentum Swans way with several dubious calls and it calls the fairness of the game into question.

 

[ExRoyboy]

You would agree that it was insufficient intent? And Heeney didn’t hit Webster in the face to get clear to take the mark that lead to the goal? Who am I baiting? Just calling it as it is

 

[Ice-Wolf]

"Every time the swans have been challenged, they respond"

"They" being the umpires.

AFL CORRUPTION AT ITS FINEST!

 

[HirdsTheWord]

If heeney doesn’t cop a suspension than this shits confirmed rigged

 

[The Gong]

Nothing in that from Heeney. Open hand trying to get separation and the defender was stumbling.

 

[hawkman]

Henry punching Webster was ok?

Yet Shiemakers goal disallowed for his knows what.

It was an obvious free kick in the goal square, plus it looked touched anyway

The only bad decision was allowing Heeney to smack Webster in the head

 

[The King!]

Heeney held again, play on

 

[hawkman]

Nothing in that from Heeney. Open hand trying to get separation and the defender was stumbling.

He was definitely stumbling after

 

[Chuckie357]

How did amatey kick 9 against the crows when we have a worse defense?

 

[LSRU]

Correct.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Nothing in that from Heeney. Open hand trying to get separation and the defender was stumbling.

Can't hit the head.
He hit the head.

Intentional. Medium. He's stuffed

 

[cybercrab]

Pou pou pou

 

[Chuckie357]

The arm didn't swing itself.

The fact that he went to say sorry straight away and not continue with the play for a second or two shows he knows he is in strife and trying to get himself off ala Hawkins swinging elbow.

 

[ExRoyboy]

This is hilarious. Those were all 100% the right calls. Do you want the umps to throw the rule book out the window when a team's on a roll?

No they weren’t the right calls. That was not insufficient intent. He tapped the ball forwards not towards the line, it took a leg break after bouncing forward. And Heeney should have been called for high contact and not been given the mark. How can you possibly defend that?

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Merret copped a week for an accidental punch to Silvaganis ribs whils he's was tackling.

Unfortunately Heeny is gone

 

[Plugger35]

Phillipou goes bang from long range, so much for the Saints playing boring unwatchable footy.
