Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 5 - Eagles v Tigers Sun April 14th 4:00pm AEST (OS)

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Ginbey running out of centre and kicking into the 50
He did that a lot in psa footy hope he keeps developing that

 

[bzparkes]

this review stuff is BS - they need to be sponsored by OPSM or SPECSAVERS

Aren't they sponsored by OPSM?

That must've stopped recently if not.

 

[cactuscall]

Haha umpires stop the world to check obvious goals but have no issue calling highs like that when 2 players fall together.

 

[Some Idiot]

Eagles on fire.

 

[Roobs321]

One time I went to princes park to watch Gehrig play at full back and kouta kicked about 10 goals on him

was that R5 2001 (v Saints)? Kouta kicked 4 then (1 per quarter). Kouta never kicked anywhere near a bag of 10. Maybe a preseason match?

 

[Roobs321]

I secretly love Cole. Don't know why.

 

[Chaisa]

Fun game so far. Wonder if West Coast can keep it up.

 

[juss]

High scoring from both teams.

We've got no tall presence up forward so need to play lower and shorter and use run and carry more.

 

[Roobs321]

11.2 at halftime. Pinch me.

Maybe I'm wrong and that didn't happen and he took like 20 marks or something. I just remember gehrig getting thrashed haha

That's the challenge especially in the last quarter where we always drop away

Yeah Kouta in that 2000 season played as if he was kicking 10 and taking 30 marks. It was a weird purple patch the commentators lapped up

Unlikely that match though. He took a mere 4 marks (but kicked 4.3 and got a Brownlow vote)

 

[Madas]

Tigers FFS

LOL

 

[YeoShuey]

I hate to say it but this ump with the receding hairline is probably currently the worst looking one in the AFL.

 

[Roobs321]

I have it BIRDBRAIN

Rnd5 1996
Kouta took 18 marks and had 35 disposals. At Princes Park.

Gehrig tended to be an attacking halfback that year, going on a lot of ambitious goal-of-the-year runs, maybe got cut-up the other way

That'll be it!

Chemist Warehouse are the primary sponsors of AFL Umpires and Project Clothing the gear wearing suppliers and branding

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

What a half of footy by Waterman just absolutely dominating.
Just looked so dangerous
Can he keep it up ?

 

[Doc1763]

Dusty might retire at half time

Ah right. I remember them being sponsored by OPSM a couple of years ago.

Sometimes, the jokes write themselves...

feel free to FIRE AWAY on the Chemist Warehouse jokes

I mean surely the bald/balding blokes like Nicholls, Razor Ray and Rodger get free Factor 50+ sunscreen for life

 

[Roobs321]

Eagles highest scoring 1st half since 2021 apparently

 

[CarterS]

Eagles had this in them, ran with Sydney for 3 and a bit quarters last week. Reid looks great. Hopefully they can maintain it.

 

[The Casey Cat]

Good stuff Cripps. Love how involved Reid always seems to be.

 

[Pomsta]

Starting midfields are Dow, Baker, Graham and McAuliffe against Yeo, Kelly, Reid and Ginbey. Just a slight difference in class. No wonder we're getting smashed in clearances
