Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 19 - Cats v Dogs Sat July 20th 7:30pm AEST (GMHBA)

[Kobe Gryant]

But also, outside of Dangerfield and Selwood that team was pretty bad. Take a look at the forward line, and one of the slowest finals defences this century.

Sydney had a much stronger list, but somehow lost to both GWS and the Bulldogs when it mattered.

100%.

Great coaching, strong HGA, and herculean efforts from Selwood & Dangerfield dragged very average lists into the top 4 for years.

The irony is 2022 probably didn't have the same peaks (e.g 2 players in the top 5-10 for the year) but we were much more even across the board, leading to a side that wasn't overly reliant on any one player.

Our bottom 6-10 during that '13-20 period weren't close to what other contenders had at their disposal, even if we had some of the competition's best at the top of our list.

Have a feeling the dogs will be a little more desperate and just snatch this one

Feels like there’s a bit of bigfooty niggle going into this one. Can only hope the players read this thread so there’s just as much feeling out on the field.

If I find out any of our players are signed up to BigFooty, I want them delisted asap. I want some brain cells in my side

If any Western Bulldogs players are reading this, consider yourselves warned!!

Go Cats!

 

[bzparkes]

Gee, what a shit surface...

 

[kaiserchief13]

Is this a WFNL game or AFL game?

 

[outabounds]

Been quite a while since I've seen mud like that in the AFL.

Nice to see that we're playing on a cow paddock tonight. Might need some more money spent on the ground.

 

[windyhill]

Good old fashioned slog here.

 

[MarcMaverick]

I read the KP is a actually lower than street level.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Dogs might as well play at WO

 

[Iamspock]

How wise to play a game on it, before this one

Yep, I remember this video from years back in which the groundskeeper confirms that.

Bit unlucky with the weather- I actually like that the VFL was on before this game-need more of it.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Bont was kicking it to Weightman, hardly deliberate particularly in the conditions

Kudos to you if you were there to watch that game in this weather

 

[bloodpumpsRnB]

And they wonder why they AFL won't let them play finals at this shithole

How often does that happen these days? Or just a one-off?

 

[The 747]

Imagine it would be really cold at the ground tonight.

Not much has happened in this game so far.

 

[Iamspock]

How often does that happen these days? Or just a one-off?

I think it happens a few times a year.

Geelong's retro football guernsey makes it look like they are wearing kitchen aprons!

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Dogs got lucky there with a throw I will admit

A few goal head start is what we needed at this ground.

 

[Randomizor]

First to 20 wins

Bevo cant see apparently
