Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 7 - Cats v Blues Sat April 27th 4:35pm AEST (MCG)

[Captivating]

Geelong was outplayed and we didn't have a defence nor small forward line.

It was expected with our half back and small forward line decimated.

..at the end of the day Geelong was Bluetalised in the middle.

Not when Cripps have 4 disposals and Walsh 5 in Q4

Thought they were pretty good today. Missed a few both ways and some iffy 50m penalties, aside from that alright.

Then we have a very different interpretation of the rules

 

[YeoShuey]

The way better team lost.

 

[STPer18]

Just wondering if that win counts or are we still looking for our first genuine win?

 

[Chief]

Maybe you should watch the game with both eyes.

I think the clue was when the commentators were pointing out Carlton were playing against a second team in the umpires.

 

[Bunnings]

It’s not #f#FreeKickGeelongt’s #can#cantgetafreekickagainstgeelongat’s was some of the worst one sided umpiring I’ve seen in a while

They got more than they earnt, last 5 mins was cheating by the umps, those softies Cripple

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Really, worse than , say richmonds small forwards ?

Well they've got Shai Bolton who I'd genuinely trade our entire small forward fleet for... So yeah.

 

[geelong_crazy26]

No way these umps can get a gig next week regardless of the result, just disgraceful

Question to all Carlton fans: when was the last time you guys lost a game and it apparently wasn’t the umpires fault??

Kingy and Dunstall despise Geelong.

It sounded like Dunstall had a sizeable amount on Carlton to win today.

 

[azyboy]

We should have won despite the umpires if we kicked well. Doesn't mean they didn't have a significant impact. And please if your argument is free kick numbers then there is no point having this discussion

What’s your argument? Geelong played the bigger moments better. They led from start to finish. Deserved the four points.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

You poor baby.

I've bolded the excuse for clarity.

No need for this sort of stuff

 

[The 747]

Great to see 60ish scoring shots in a game in front of 85K plus at the G. Very entertaining game - foot skills won us that one.

I was at the game so missed this but it must have been pretty bad then on TV as well

Umpiring not a factor. Carltons first quarter was the telling difference. 2 goals 8 and 1 out of bounds didn't help our cause

Tom Hawkins likes this post...

How was your goal from the illegal block?

Your entire comeback wAs based of soft free kicks to cripps.

Just accept it, you weren’t good enough today.

 

[fnerd]

They gave them 4 frees at the end to get them close, nice troll..... Cameron was waltzing into a goal in the 2nd after a dodgy call also, you clearly didn't watch the game, so thats ok.

Your right I barely watched it any of it but after reading all the Carlton fans whining in here it’s impossible not to take the view that the only reason the blooze lost had to be due to the umps

[SSSSSS]

Blues small forwards once again proving why they are the worst in the competition

Durdin and Owies are momentum killers.

Exactly, we blew it early and played catch up for the rest of the match.

 

[hoss]

Fantastic result! Bad luck AFL.

Spin the Wheel....what will be the excuses this week?

• Carlton Injuries
• Carlton kicked more behinds
• Carlton had an off game
• Steve Hocking
• CFL

Dimensions of Kardinia park option lacking

 

[STPer18]

When you only have a 40% advantage in free kicks.

 

[Bagger72]

You poor baby.

I've bolded the excuse for clarity.

Well I always said it was going to be a factor. Nothing has changed here.

Geelong got Bluetalised with this weeks team filled with 30-35th player on the list

Thats ok - I am actually proud of the players. Would have been something if we beat the handbaggers this week. But rematch with two healthy and inform lists is in order.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Haven't seen much of Geelong this year but the way they seem to have numbers every where on the ground is very suspicious. Dank been around there recently?

 

[JustaBattler]

Good win Geelong - proved nothign to no one but hey 4 points is 4 points - take em and run

 

[Generalissimo]

Oh please. We can't win a HTB decision to save our lives but they're always red hot on us.

We're the most disciplined team in the league, 7-0 for wins, we don't play "unsociable footy" a la Richmond or Hawthorn, yet we've also lost the free kick count 0-7 this year.

We just don't get paid the frees that are there.
