Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 22 - Swans v Pies Fri Aug 9th 7:40pm AEST (SCG)

[matty lloyd the champ]

Needs to be serious questions asked about Nick Daicos when the pressure is on.

Has completely gone to water in final terms multiple times this season, especially the last two weeks when the oppostion has kicked 5+ goals.

Destroyed by Cripps and co last week and then Warner and Heeney tonight.

Hes got a fair way to go.

I think his size will always be a limiting factor when pressure ramps up. Merrett also suffers from the same issue.

You can't say that when a big contested win is required to be won that neither Daicos or Merrett will win it against the bigger bodies of Cripps, Heeney, Bontempelli etc.

Ha Chokingwood ... farkin lol

Haha Saints supporters make me laugh, pretty sure i won't even be around before you win a GF

 

[Gavin Excell]

Sydney will be hard to beat in the finals if they get that kind of umpiring. What was that 10000 deliberate out of bounds calls? And the non-50m in the last 30 seconds for something 1000x worse than Blakey got 50m for in the 3rd quarter.

Your team as gifted as any
Choked tonight

 

[bungalow_bill]

Collingwood shafted.

 

[SC_Power]

………. Anybody home McFly? OMG he just couldn’t believe what he was seeing, where’s our aura gone? where’s our close wins gone? ………. Welcome back to reality Fly lol

They have an extraordinarily good record over the last couple of years in <2 goals games…

And by extraordinary, we mean second best record in the league over that time…

Those deliberates were there. That 50 was not there. You’re only saying it due to the nuffy commentator barracking for the pies.

You lost.

 

[bzparkes]

Collingwood would have preferred the ball OOB compared to the point they got

What if it ended in a goal?

 

[Astro_]

Heenney was huge in that last quarter

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Heeney incredible.

Agree on that, but its just such a common theme with Nick so far in his career.

He cant have it all his way. Every team has great midfielders and when they get on top he just doesnt give a shout.

Its a serious flaw.

 

[Lingsface]

Heeney you are a masterpiece!

 

[Hawksboy72]

My football knowledge is unprecedented really.

Almost blew a 7 goal lead to Hawthorn in gather round when the Hawks were playing like a busted a-hole.

Of course we know the Swans are making it to the GF only to lose to the Dogs. As in 2016 the Democratic candidate is female plus VP named Tim

 

[YeoShuey]

Trump wins the election again....2016 part 2

Against another female candidate nonetheless. Repeat season.

 

[guruisatiger]

You the type of guy to celebrate your wife’s boyfriend getting a promotion

No just don't like campaigners sticking the boots in when there own team has done diddly squat
I'll always side with my Collingwood colleagues than any Carlton supporter

 

[Inspecta Gadget]

Gee whiz, going back a fair bit here.

I can’t even remember who bloody won that game let alone the umps. Time to let go.

Of course you don't remember the armchair ride you got in that 4 point win. I'm just saying the reaming you boys copped tonight reminded me

 

[Arr0w]

Cracking game

Gutsy come from behind win

McCartin 50?

 

[Magma]

nice of collingwood to sub joe richards on for 1% tog

 

[EagleMan87]

you can feel the devastation from the 7 & Fox teams

Genuinely the worst call of a brilliant comeback win I've ever heard.

 

[RUNVS]

Will be interesting to see if Heeney gets Brownlow votes. I mean he should get 3, but we will see if the umpires basically refuse to give the votes to players who are not eligible to win. That really should not affect getting the votes though.

 

[mattyc25]

Fly's votes
Daicos 5
Heeney 0

More like
McRae 5

 

[Cool Kangas]

Hey Zevon I was right I just knew lol

 

[Wargreymon90]

Collingwood were doomed as soon as Cox went the shush celebration.

They did!!

If Heeney doesn’t get 3 then time to scrap current Brownlow.
