Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 2 - Saints v Pies Thurs March 21st 7:30pm AEDT (MCG)

Tough win by the Saints

Should be pushing for more games at the G, where they can exploit sides with all their runners

NWM is a star. Loved Wilson in his draft year

Windhager very underrated

Agree with all of that, honourable mention to Leigh Fisher, that was his best game for the Saints to date as well.

In a rare occurrence, Collingwood lose the free kick count & their moronic fans scream blue murder. Give me a spell. You were gifted 2 finals last year by the umps.

That’s a topic of convo for another thread lol. I do hold that belief though as I don’t just look at the GF but the totality of the season and it was very similar to Collingwood’s where different rule books were applied across the board. As I mentioned though, that’s for another thread.

I think BS in both cases.

Thing is Melbourne won all their finals very comfortably in 2021, not sure umpires can make that much difference!

 

[The hands of stone]

They got the lions at the GABBA coming off the bye.. They will be 0-4

And us the week after .....will be 0-5

 

[LukeParkerno1]

And Brisbane in Brisbane next week !!

Brisbane are just as bad

 

[The Casey Cat]

Quite a few of them in recent times. 2016 and 2021 comes to mind.

How the #### is 2021 an 'umpires premiership'? Melbourne won all finals by miles.

 

[Del208273]

BT is asking for Roaming Brian to be in the Pies rooms so he can commiserate with them.

 

[Freomaniac]

It’s Nick Daicos 50th game. Has anybody mentioned this?

Magpie were never a chance tonight.

30 free kicks to 14. And Ross Lyon tactics On top of this lol

Junk time Schultz strikes again

Schultz was a decent player at the dockers

 

[Tristan34]

Never think I would say this.... Collingwood were the under dogs and were screwed over.

28 to 13 free kick count saints way. Then you got Ross Lyon tactics on top of that lol

It's shows you what happens when you're second at the ball all game...

 

[Osho]

The melts in this thread are all time

At least Geelong had about 50 injuries View attachment 1935095

ROAR!

 

[MarcMaverick]

Climb the stairs now Pies.

Nonsense, stop backpedalling and own your post

 

[Chilli Con Incarnate]

The media won’t, just be a few nuffies on talk back and a fair bit of talk about the wrong call on the Higgins goal.

Media talk will be more about pies being 0-3 and well off the pace still.

I mean, they didn't loose us the game, but I'd hope people could see past their irrational Collingwood hate to question why a former player was allowed to umpire his old team. Coupled with the free kicks count it's probably worth a discussion.

By end of year I think he will be rated

very hard at, good speed and agility, good power, and now he's showing he can win the ball.

 

[Elixuh]

Pies board already referring to the Schulz trade as the worst in history

 

[Toffee Lion]

Brisbane are just as bad

Worse. Both teams will finish Bottom 4, bookmark it.

 

[Blue1980]

Thank you St Kilda for allowing us to witness pies go 0-4 after round 3 next week.

Hawks odds looking juicy in round 4 now

Ginnavon to tear it up for hawks against them, I like

 

[YeoShuey]

Thursday night match does not look appealing next week.

Brisbane should win that.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Going up to the Gabba to face a fresh and rested Brisbane next week...

Collingwood:

 

[My Cotchin Rules]

I feel you're still having RTB withdrawals.....?

 

[Blue1980]

Brisbane are just as bad

They’ve at least played a half of good footy this year.

Reckon they will win comfortably next week.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Seeing a lot of outrage from Pies fans about a former St Kilda player being able to umpire a Saints game.

Not seeing much concern from them about a former Collingwood player being appointed the Match Review Officer who determines sanctions for Collingwood players.

Mate that was 2 weeks ago

 

[RAPPA]

Pies are destroying sergeant Schultz

 

[The Fantom]

Collingwood- First reigning Premier to be 0-3 after round 2
