Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 8 - Swans v GWS Sat May 4th 1:45pm AEST (SCG)

[Rod Stroker]

Zero impact on the game. Swans pressure & shape has been superior. Should be 7-8 goals in front.

LOL! It would have been less superior had he been out there. Beast.

The 2 Greens are the Giants most important players, one to get it, the other to finish it

 

[smeggaz]

Always going to be hard for GWS missing Coniglio, and with Green going down and eff all impact from Greene. They just don't have the midfield depth and their small forwards haven't given them much (whilst Sydney's small and mediums have).

Mind you, Sydney lost McCartin, no Parker, Mills and Blakey quiet. Could argue the outs equalise.

There must also be at least 10 "best kick in the comp".

Warner and Errol been huge and big difference having Rampe back.

Flood gates will open and score will better reflect Sydney's dominance since quarter time.

The Swans players are all very well versed in throwing the head back etc to play for frees. You pretty much have to be first to the ball or you'll infringe.

The irony of a cats fan saying this is palpable.

Injuries are a part of footy. If you're going to wonder what impact Green would have then let's bring back Mccartin, Parker and Mills. We'd win it by 100

Yeah having one A grade mid missing before the match and another going down straight away (in-game always hurts more) will seriously blunt most sides. But the model of relying heavily on 2 or 3 is seeming a bit out dated too.

And the rest of their side has mostly not been at the races anyway.

 

[Coolangatta]

I mean the Giants lost to Carlton so while they’re good, they’re not the Harlem Globetrotters they were made out to be earlier.

has been pretty average this season apart from the Suns game.

 

[eaglespremiers]

Hey commentators, how many has Hayward kicked again?

 

[Mr Meow]

Toby Greene has been pretty average this season apart from the Suns game.

Yeah 5 goals and 3 goal assists that game seriously spike his averages. Sometimes it goes beyond simple goal/assist tallies too. Curnow's are still strong but Blues fans aren't too happy with him and he's been a "few moments a game" player rather than dominant. Greene has been a bit the same with his few classy moments a game e.g those ones where he's had a few goal assists. But not the same player as last year for general impact.

 

[Mr Meow]

Hay-foured.

This is a belting everywhere but on the scoreboard.

This is a belting everywhere but on the scoreboard.

5 goals up on the team sitting 3rd seems reasonable to me.

 

[Mr Meow]

5 goals up on the team sitting 3rd seems reasonable to me.

I know what they mean though, it's felt more like a 10+ goal belting, even in the wet.

 

[smeggaz]

Votes: Warner and take your pick between Heeney, Gulden and Hayward.

Heeneys last goal would prob get him in. Interesting to see how the coaches vote.

Good quack there.

 

[The 747]

Good win by Sydney, the AFL caused that rain to come right at the time they needed it.

Sick of these ginnivan/selwood moves

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

Why didn't McInerney have to go back over his mark?

Man, Giants wouldn't have won anyway, but every weird little decision went Sydney's way in this game.

Swans have had 16 more inside 50’s than they did last week.

66 and counting. It’s a belting.

Because Kelly instantly played on running 3 metres to his left.

 

[Mr Meow]

Owen 3 in my tips now, I thought GWS would be a lot better than they have been today, Tom Green subbed off early didn't help.

The smug Swans have been too good for them and they will have the bragging rights until the next Battle of the Bridge.

Who have you got for Geelong/Melbourne? Can you make sure it's Melbourne?

That wasn't really Honeyboy Wilson's question though.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

No, I get that it was a free, but then the ball was 3m ahead of the mark where the free kick occurred. McInerney was allowed to just run on to the ball and pick it up and keep going instead of going back behind the mark like every other free kick usually is. It wasn't advantage because the play had stopped.

GWS were dominant early, then the rain sucked all the zest out of the oranges.

 

[Mr Meow]

RUNVS lid's off, despite GWS' issues. Damp weather be damned! We can take something out of this match.
