Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 24 - Blues v Saints Sun Aug 25th 3:20pm AEST (Marvel)

[Arc1]

Glad i wasnt the only one who saw it

And not a word from the commentary either... given the garbage tiggy stuff that gets done for deliberate every week.

 

[Chism]

Great effort but not enough in the end with the cattle on the field and well done Saints. Up to Port now to see if we can be smashed in Rd1 of finals at the GABBA!

 

[beema limapep]

Hahahahahaha

 

[eastfreo75]

Umpires will probably get a please explain but not sure there’s much more they could have done except take the kick at goal for Carlton.

50m for a bad look.

 

[XhazzafootyX]

Cripps is an embarrassment of a captain

 

[Monco Matt]

Turned it off when Kemp got yet another free dead in front. How did they manage to lose from there?

Well, you see...they are Carlton!

 

[IronMike]

Unbelievable choke job by the Blues.

If I was a Saints fan heading home on the Mernda line I'd cover up my jumper after that one.

 

[Ghossein]

sorry for your loss blues supports

put your water bottles out in solidarity

 

[Sydney Kicker]

Hope Saints release a DVD.

Yes, they'll probably get asked to explain why they didn't do exactly that.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Classic St Kilda win

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Gotta commend the Saints for fighting out the win, I know we were without so many of our best players but that was a gutsy win by a young group who were playing like they had a finals campaign on the horizon

Really respect it, fate in Ports hands - we’ve been too poor to deserve our spot anyway so indifferent as to whether or not we make it from here

though Port will make it 9/9 for me

 

[SC_Power]

Agree
There is little doubt in my mind that this will be a 8+ free kick advantage to Carlton this quarter, with half being soft as and at least 2 being for charity goals,

Frees 8-0 in the final term lol

Still not enough

Surely I get a prize?

Maybe an Carlton AFL participation medal?

 

[Hollow Knight]

This match will be remembered (for two separate reasons) as the game where Carlton “bottled” it.

Hope the umpire is okay.

 

[The King!]

That sucks for Blues fans, their best this year was exceptional

 

[Pancakes]

Umps did absolutely everything they could to get the Blues over the line, and yet Carlton still failed.

Going to be yet another year of an embarrassing failure for the Blues.

 

[Roobs321]

even if Port win the Blues in finals against Brisbane at the Gabba:

0-4
avg losing margin of 8 goals

 

[Randomizor]

carlton fans genuinely thought they were premiership fancies this year

Just proves you can’t win on a tactic of expecting free kicks

 

[westie]

Classic St Kilda win

Saints have done the Bloos a favour. They would have been absolutely embarrassed by the Lions in the 1st week of finals.

 

[Sarcoidevo]

That was a huge choke by Carlton .... Finals on the line and they bottled it

 

[RCAB]

Kemp is going to be a Coleman Medallist one day.

This aged well

Don't know why you are determined to make it about the Suns?

We get another good fixture and no doubt we will find a way to muck it up once again haha.

Fair crack to the Saints. That Higgins goal got me off the couch. Carlton supporters would all be on their phones on the train back to the north.

 

[bungalow_bill]

Pressure is incredible, you'd think St Kilda is also playing for a final spot.

Playing for something way more important - to deny the Blues a finals berth. Motivation was through the roof
