Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 8 - Blues v Pies Fri May 3rd 7:40pm AEST (MCG)

[Chief]

Right: Unless it's a bad one against Carlton, I don't wanna hear constant whinging about umpiring from you lot!

 

[No SPIN]

Not trolling at all. Feel free to walk us through the logic that if Carlton doesn't beat pretty much a full strength Pies unit this week , why they can't beat them the second time around when the Blues will possibly have a stronger team ?

We beat you last year when you had a full strength team minus DeKoning.
It’s sometimes a lot more complicated than personel when we meet.

 

[PerthBoy86]

Bold to suggest Collingwood won't make finals but anything is possible I guess.

I wasn't. I was suggesting if Carlton can't beat them now I don't see how they will. Will expect Collingwood to be better later.

Should Carlton not expect to improve later in the year too?

 

[Stax on the mill]

Carlton already failed their big test last week. The season is done and doesn’t matter anymore.

That’s the spirit. Although your comment was obviously tongue in cheek.

Ok so you are of the opinion that form is permanent then coz that Carlton game plan had been thrown out the window after losing 8 of 9 games during that stretch.
On your logic, how do you account for Carlton (minus plenty) beating the pies minus just bobby hill in the rematch ?

It was our turn for a stretch of poor form.

Noooo, apparently only Collingwood will improve....

Season over, failed all tests, 15 on the injury list, Pies should be winning by 80 points if they are a serious side.

are you the new abacus in here representing Collingwood - got a spreadsheet to share- how about referencing some 'bookie oddds'...

 

[MisterMarcus]

Carlton to get 30 frees to 5, lose the game, and then blame the umpires....

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Really this is the sideshow alley match of the round.

Not there will be much merit in it, an easy win for the Pies can be written in the book.

Have you booked your usual one week absence when your fudgey calls go astray?

Only 30 frees - Charlie will be upset...

Oh hi jab!

Was trying to rank other games relative to this bread, circuses and give them a massage match.

Have the following games well ahead in general and/or Ladder interest.

Cats v Dees
Port v Crows
Bloods v Giants

Oh hi there Squishy. Last I checked my humble mob has more than a mill fans more than your bathwater imbibers.

Wow. I still have the Pies making the 8…. Yep I know that is controversial but hey I like stating certs. And of course I am still optimistic the Blues will proudly end the year as a mid table team.

Were Collingwood better late last year when we beat them in Rnd 20

Well I guess it would be a real turn up for Collingwood not to make the 8 - I wonder if there has been any recent examples of a premiership winning team NOT making the eight in teh following year?

hmmm I'll have to think about that - any thoughts?

 

[Thrawn]

Where's Fudgey? Thought he'd be up and about against a team who'll finish 11th.
