Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 20 - Suns v Lions Sat July 27th 4:35pm AEST (People First)

[Zevon]

I am predicting the Gold Coast Supersuns to win by 76 points in another barnstorming home ground display

 

[The 747]

Suns to take home the Surf'n'turf Cup.

How on earth aren't Gold Coast favourites. Playing at home better than Geelong in their prime

Started the week paying close to $2.50 and now we're into $2.10. Wouldn't surprise me if we get close to $2 flat tomorrow. Obviously there's a decent amount of punters putting money on the Suns, but I think Brisbane will still go in as favourites with the bookies. The first ever sold out QClash so it should be interesting to see how both teams react to the crowd.

From a Gold Coast perspective, we've been here before. Essendon went into our round 13 fixture against us at Carrara sitting second on the ladder on a seven game unbeaten run. They were beaten. Collingwood went into the round 17 fixture against us at Carrara sitting fourth on the ladder and had only lost one of their last eight games going into the match. They were beaten.

Now Brisbane are going into this round 21 fixture against us at Carrara sitting third on the ladder and they've won their last seven games going into this match. Will history repeat itself and the Suns maintain an unbeaten record at home or will the Lions break the streak? We'll know in less than 24hrs.

Psssst hey Suns, wanna do us a favour and win this one?

 

[GC2015]

Great to see the QClash sell out for the first time ever. That's the 10th sell out in Queensland for the year (6 Gabba, 4 Carrara). Unreal growth occurring north of the Tweed. Hopefully this game lives up to the hype of a sell out!

 

[Thedeftouch]

Bad 50m call there, was a legit spoil

 

[catters05]

Is this a sell out?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

GC planning on kicking straight?

 

[Billy ray]

Is this a sell out?

Yes

 

[Billy ray]

GC planning on kicking straight?

Imagine we did. We would be top 4

 

[PopsPride]

Typical McInerney .. standing right on the goal line, mind in neutral and gives away a GCS goal.

 

[Delisted]

How's my man Hippwood going?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Well not kicking to Kong would help bloke is worse than his brother

Donuts because I’m on him lol

 

[Hollow Knight]

The Suns simply must win this for their own soul.

I thought they’d never have us served up to them on a platter more than they did earlier in the year where we had two ACLs, a concussion and no bench for most of the game.

They blew that one. But surely they can’t blow this one at home when we have literally zero key defenders.

They simply can’t and won’t lose this. Otherwise it’s a genuine existential moment for that club.

 

[Spirit Level]

F*ck you GC, useless campaigners

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Last time I’ll be tipping GC

 

[LukeParkerno1]

F*ck you GC, useless campaigners

You can still go second anyway what’s the difference

 

[CrowToon]

Lions getting a dream run for the second week in a row

 

[CrowToon]

Zorko with peak cringe there. It's a regulation spoil, this isn't the NFL.

 

[Spirit Level]

Not if the Lions get a good percentage boost in the 2nd half

 

[LukeParkerno1]

You haven’t played! Just belt WCE like you should do.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Neale - 20 disposals
Zorko - 19 disposals
Dunkley - 17 disposals

Not sure thats a recipe for success for Gold Coast

 

[Tommy221987]

Just watching in the pub without sound, thought it was full time the way Zorko and a few Lions were carrying on.

It's just what players do. They pump each other up over stuff like that. That wasn't a regulation spoil anyways. He came off his man from 30m+ away to spoil the oppos best full forward who got out the back on a mismatched opponent with 2mins to go in the half. In the context of the game it was massive.
