Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 24 - Dogs v GWS Sun Aug 25th 12:30pm AEST (Mars)

[bloodsbigot]

Sydney have an obsession that the umps are always against them truth is they are just bitter with losing so many recent GF's

I'm only bitter about one Grand Final.

The boss talking up multiple stories, including a Vic derby.
Mutts are the most protected club in the league outside the “big 4” gifted a flag.

So good

Khamis isnt a 1 on 1 defender, more of an intercept role. Either Jones or Lobb (if not playing ruck) would go to Hogan IMO. If English stays out I would expect to see Jones on Hogan with O'Donnell playing second tall

He was being sarcastic being a smart arse

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

I wonder why you picked Saints and GWS

Picked with his heart not his head

 

[Colonial]

Expecting a bunch of late outs. No incentive for GWS to win. Hang in 4th spot, stay in Sydney.

Second is still a big incentive.

Which one?

 

[Golden_6]

Second is still a big incentive.

I really don’t know if it is. I’d think Giants would probably back themselves over Sydney in Sydney compared to an Adelaide trip. If they get over Sydney then they wouldn’t have to leave Sydney until the grand final if they made it.

I don’t think the players would think like that though. They go out and try to win despite any consequences as a result.

If we win and Freo win we possibly don’t leave WS until the GF.
Plus there is that nice little part about knocking you lot out

A GWS win at Mars would be great for their confidence. Dogs should get it done though. Let’s hope it’s not too weather effected.

Going to have to go with GWS for tipping sakes, but I think they could be a sneaky chance. They are playing some great footy at the moment.

Obviously Dogs are too, but chance for top 2 has to be a pretty big carrot to dangle.

Then again, Dogs need to win to not drop to 4th if Freo win.

 

[Truetiger]

This game is so difficult to pick, equal first in the work tipping. Went dogs but not confident.

Is there any incentive for GWS to win? They are currently looking at a home final vs the Swans. Why would they want anything else?

 

[_Mike_]

100% chance of rain from 2pm onward. If either gets a jump in the 1st it will be a hard slog to catch up

They can host a home final vs Port at Engie. Surely facing a travelling team is the best scenario?

Sydney would be much easier than Port

It's a risk though. Win and Port win then it's an away game in Adelaide. You wouldn't want to mess with the winning mindset though

 

[The 747]

It be windy

Second place would get us a final at home in WS

 

[Colonial]

Don’t know about that

 

[Seattle Mariners]

GWS tanking to finish 4th and stay in Sydney as opposed to risking a trip to Adelaide?

Furthermore, GWS have won every final against Sydney. Think it’s 3-0.

 

[DrEvil_]

Don’t know about that

There's a 50/50 chance you get Port away if you win

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

Is Darcy Jones shorter, or taller than Caleb?

Yes.
