Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 3 - Dogs v Eagles Sun March 31st 1pm AEDT (Marvel)

Shut up brereton.

 

[TheKanga]

Commentary is pretty pathetic. Anyone would think WCE are an under 16 rep side coming up against the reigning premier.

This is an AFL club. The “small wins” stuff is embarrassing.

They treat them with kid gloves

The commentary would be laying into any other team.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Being Faux Tough is all the fight the Eagles have shown today

 

[MadMundy]

West Coast are too worried about pretending to be tough to focus on the actual game.

I joke about muting commentary but have never actually done it. I had to mute this after half time because of derm. Bloody awful. Jesus Christ.

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

Two spuds, couldn’t get a kick in a bar fight

Imagine them trying to outmuscle Cripps or Hewett

Or trying to outrun Walsh

Or putting their head over it like Cerra and Kennedy

Can’t wait for your old boy to retire so I can watch Tanner Bruhn get 16 touches a game for 10 years

You never answered my question. How many premiership players do you have!?

Don’t hate Geelong because they are successful and your team has been a running joke for 25 years.
There’s no need mate.
Breathe and it’s ok.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Eagles winning the inside 50 count and smashing them in clearances yet belted on the scoreboard. The uncontested possession differential of 100+ says a lot.

They ain't no good but it's a small win to take from the game. Dogs don't lose the clearances often.

Think they would've liked to see anything out of their young guys. The experienced guys (McGovern, Barrass, Yeo, Kelly, Duggan) were solid.

I live in Torquay and love the Cats, I’m just stirring you up

 

[compact72]

Would have to be one of the worst commentated games ever.

****ing woeful

 

[Roobs321]

the sad thing is I can't for the life of me remember that third goal. who kicked it again?

 

[Mofra]

Bevo might be a dumb angry midget with a s**t moustache but managing Bont as a forward today is exactly how you manage a good player through a clash you expect to win

If the going gets tough, deploy him on ball, otherwise leave him deep forward and let him get through unscathed

And subbing out Libba.

Last week he put the queue in the rack and gave Gallagher & Sanders more CBAs. His whole demeanor is different this year too. The off-field changes look to be having an impact.

 

[largebus]

Derm and Gerard now openly barracking for Eagles to get priority picks

I'm on board for 10 priority picks if it means Dermie has his tongue surgically removed

Definitely, I put the C on Bont this week so it’s killed me but it’s very intelligent

 

[Roobs321]

so who do we percentage-boosters get to play next week?
looks

 

[TheKanga]

yeah im not hopeful like i was in 2022-23. North used to need that Hobart fixture, but feel they could do us in Perth now anyway. North have been putting up (and leaking) decent scores each week as well, we'll need to kick a serious score.

I'm more confident at our clash at Marvel towards the end of the season.

We have Eagles and Hawks twice still to come

 

[Elixuh]

I took C off bont and put on Gawn. I thought this was the downside risk with him hurting his ankle last week and playing west coast.

Small win indeed but the quality in execution is a clear disparity between the two teams. It’s heartening that some of their experienced personnel have been solid but they need to see the same from their youth. Either way a good percentage boost for the dogs

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

I live in Torquay and love the Cats, I’m just stirring you up

All good man.

 

[TheKanga]

Percentage of 42.8 for the Eagles after that

 

[Roobs321]

Marvel is usually one of our least scarring grounds, usually feel a chance there compared to some other fortresses where we can fall to pieces.

Commentators mentioned late that our previous lowest score there was 52. Not sure how true that is.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Absolutely irredeemable. We are making it easy for the usual suspects.

 

[Coolangatta]

Surely things can't get worse for the Eagles this season...

looks up next opponent

Sydney.

Oh dear lawd.

 

[Elixuh]

Marvel turf looks like it has three different mowing heights. Looks in great Nick

 

[Mofra]

so who do we percentage-boosters get to play next week?

Home ground advantage. Eagles by 7
