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

[Blues_Man]

Nah finding novel ways to lose and miss finals after being premiership favourites a month ago is far more embarrassing.

Enjoy watching the better teams play finals

 

[Blues_Man]

This aged well

Sucked in by a known anti Carlton troll , shows how bright you actually are

 

[Blues_Man]

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.

Thanks freo for once again being garbage

 

[Pancakes]

Enjoy your spoon , and the multitude to come, worst list since fitzroy

We could win the next 10 spoons, yet still win another flag before the Blues.
Eagles know what it takes to win flags in the modern game, Carlton just know how to fail and be an embarrassment.

 

[Blues_Man]

Cripps is an embarrassment of a captain

I bet you wish the saints had a player even half as good, 1966 is a long way away.. could be another 60 years

 

[Thrawn]

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

Port opened up the bottle of port it seems.

 

[_Mike_]

Congrats Blues, Port gave you a lifeline

 

[Bluechip66]

Never meaningless to kick you and the Blues out of the finals

What finals did u kick us out of? Asking for a friend

 

[Bluechip66]

The script was written for a Carlton win but Higgins changed the script with his great late goal.

It cost us pick 5 but a win like that is worth more than a better draft pick and gives us more momentum going into next year.

Enjoy us being in finals & u lose a spot in the draft….flipping perfect!

You’ll be out first week and we’ll have a better pick than you

Haha - this aged well!

Saint beat Carlton U19’s by two points, we still play finals & Saints drop two draft positions.

Saints - the best bottler since CocaCola.

Big thanks to St Kilda for giving us a good matchup in what turned out to be a dead rubber.

We were able to rest 10-12 of our blokes who just needed week or two more to tune the body for finals. Thankfully St Kilda showed up (unlike a few other cellar dwellars this weekend) and we were able to get some solid run into guys like Saad and Fantasia returning from injury, give a taste of the big time to bunch of young guys like Moir, Lord and Binns (would have been a shame for their only hitout for the year to be last week's flop against WC), and get a full 100 minute test without the stakes being too high.

We even got to trial a few blokes out of position too - and ok, Kemp might not be the guy you want kicking for your life at the end of a close game, and Kennedy probably isn't our backup ruck but it only adds options.

Must have been tough for Dow and Stocker though... they probably thought their days of providing scratch match fodder to Cripps and Walsh, then heading off for a cheap flight to Bali in the last week of August were behind them. Same with Ross Lyon too - if only he had actually bothered to put some effort into his application he might be coaching a finals team now. Oh well, that's life i guess. I did miss the days of St Kilda being a dumping ground for players and coaches deemed not to be up to it at Carlton, so it is nice to return to that as well...

Did you take a course in sore losing, or is it just a gift?

 

[madmug]

Lol.

Good win that cost you a harder draw next season and a worse draft pick against a VFL team and we are still playing next week.

Next week? I guess you'll need a weeks head start.

U will need it. Good luck

Sore losing? We're on top of the world right now... or at least in the hemisphere who gets to keep playing footy in September...

Might have lost the battle, but we won the war.

But seriously, thanks for giving us a good tune-up before finals.

Funny coming from you!

 

[Atomboy]

You even failed that , saints perennial losers for the last 60 years and counting

All for the best, we get to celebrate it all over again against the Lions.

Best of luck for the finals.
