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

It’s not #FreeKickGeelong. It’s #cantgetafreekickagainstgeelong.
That’s was some of the worst one sided umpiring I’ve seen in a while

Umpiring felt pretty shit house, felt like it decided some big moments but we have had our fair share this year so can’t complain.

We had chances to win the game and didn’t. More concerned with Durdin missing that sitter.

 

[MisterMarcus]

Yikes. Stay classy Cats fans

Our wins have all been devalued and dismissed by the media so far - just curious to see what they'll go for this week.

 

[Chief]

Kingy and Dunstall despise Geelong.

Doesn't mean they're wrong.

 

[The Edukator]

Great game. Better team lost but it's apparent Carlton lack polish at times and they kicked themselves out of it. Cats did well to take every chance. These look like the 2 best teams in the league rn.

 

[Freomaniac]

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

Geelong won against the odds vs Carlton.


Carlton had the umpires help all game. LoL

Says the one in a Geelong game day thread?

Please. Be gracious. Don’t try and tell me that the umpires were the reason you lost. Decisions can be for or against but you need to put yourself in a position where you’re not riding on these for the four points. better team played the big moments better. Simple.

When did I say the umpires were why they lost? Please don't put words in my mouth. I have said multiple times you won because you converted your chances and we didn't. I just said the umpires were very poor and had an impact - I can't predict what would have happened if they were somewhat competent today. You may still have won who knows

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

Good win, but proves nothing?? LoL

 

[bigm386]

It was there.

It wouldn't have been paid in a final though. Umps didn't really read the occasion.

But it was there.

So when Cameron was told to stand minutes after and took a step and no 50 was paid? What was that?

When TDK took a mark moment before and got belted late no 50?

Let's not pretend that was well umpired.

Carlton did plenty to lose that game and Geelong plenty to win it. But that was a farce.

 

[Freomaniac]

Like when Carlton beat Freo

And when crows beat Carlton. LoL

Good to see the AFL isn't hiding who they want to win the flag.

Carlton has had the umpires assistance all game lol

I'm not a Bluebagger bro.

My bad. Didn’t mean to quote you.

 

[Bagger72]

Need to resettle our defence looks disjointed with so many missing.
Only one ruck because we need the run - pretty much lost the same way as we did against Adelaide.

 

[STPer18]

Stewart out before the game and Dangerfield injured mid match. Second-tier + Jerry stood up and delivered. The rebuild is going alright.

 

[Tristan34]

Carlton fans think every time they lose it’s the umpires fault.
They never lead once the entire game and we’re very fortunate we slacked off the last five minutes. Even with the game still to be won we got it up there to Cameron to seal it once and for all.

You can’t knock Carlton’s efforts. Gave it everything they had. It was a great game of footy from two top four sides.

Carlton just need to get off the sook pills

They are just sore losers..Pies will beat them next week as well..

Doesn't mean they're wrong.

Like I have said all year, the domain name should be changed to Umpiring.com.

It doesn't matter what game it is, this is all anyone will ever talk about. And Geelong have been on the share of several games where whinging could be applied from us. But it's boring.

The umpires don’t have an impact on the result of the game. Carlton made way more mistakes than the umpires.

 

[Interdimensional Bigfoot]

Carlton: 14 frees
Geelong: 10 frees

3 howlers (where they scored 2 goals regardless) does not make an excuse for a loss.

Carlton full damage control

 

[joe444]

Meanwhile, Zac Williams is still prone on the turf waiting for the ambulance.

Won't somebody think of Zac Williams??

 

[Mr Meow]

Well said and this was all your post needed to contain.

 

[HirdyLannister]

More confident than ever. Cats were great, we will be just as great when the whips are cracking and we get players back. Nearly 70 I50’s will translate to a win more often than not.

One of the best games of the year so far.

Dreaming, wasn't even the best game of this round.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Carlton inside 50s 60.to Geelong 40 odd

 

[PetterdHoisted]

STAND rule botch up again ended the game as a contest.

seriously, can we cut it mid-season?

It solves a problem that doesn't exist and just occupies the umpires mind constantly so they can't actually think and make decisions properly.

Umpiring has definitely got worse with STAND

dumb dumb dumb

 

[Chief]

Haven’t won the free kick count all year

I can see why!

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Pin this post. This is a respectable effort. I'm appointing you captain of the Carlton supporter base.

Would’ve been nice to win but it’s not about round 7 and Cats are strong.

You can’t win 23 games, well maybe Geelong can.

 

[Strange Cat]

Blues played well so there’s a lot for them to take away from the game , cats looked sluggish in the last 10 mins which is Probbly the result from last week slogfest in QLD

Good game
