Autopsy Afl 2025 Round 2 - Blues v Hawks Thurs March 20th 7:30pm AEDT (MCG)

Irrelevant

It’s completely relevant, if he wasn’t fit to play, they shouldn’t have played him, clearly didn’t look close to full fitness, it’s round 2

Got any genuine discussion as to why the free kick count was so lopsided 2 weeks in a row then?

Got any reason 62.5% of Carlton's goals were from free kicks

 

[Skull Face]

Thank's.

Don't get upset we both know what you are now.

What’s your theory?

Go read the comment I was responding to again. He couldn't care less if it was Curnow's first game back or his 10th game back. Just a troll.

Would love to see a free kick “heat map” for this year and last. Hawthorn would have a beautiful red zone right up the guts with a nice spattering on red 30m of goal.

Nice change from our onky frees ever being deep in defense.

Fwiw, Carlton kicked 5 of their first 6 from free kicks

Don't bring logic into it. It's frowned upon.

Three of them were two were absolute garbage

Every time i watch carlton play

reminds me of tractors on a farm

Because our forward line is about as functional as a boat with no paddles, if it was semi functional that number would have been 10% and you would have lost the game.

Did you guys kick any goals without getting a free kick 1st tonight?

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Who will beat Hawthorn in the finals when you have terrible umpires like Meredith and Stevic running around?

Shit, did we have Meredith and Stevic tonight? Explains a lot.
We played shit and were lucky to be close for a lot of the game, but a lot of the calls were inconsistent and interesting. Not sure it was the difference in the game.
Don't want to take anything away from the Hawks' win. Felt they were better all game apart from a few patches.

We had Meredith and probably worse in Deboy. No Stevic but that adds a further layer to it all.

A happy team at Hawthorn ?

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

When is Curnow coming back?

He retired in 2023.

 

[Skull Face]

Still in denial I see, give it time

 

[HairyO]

Denial would be the one focussing on grammar rather than his team's need for a proper coach.

 

[Coasters7]

What’s your theory?

I’ve put the numbers up in a previous post and have yet to hear a genuine reason from a Hawks supporter why they think that’s the case?

There wouldn’t have been many Hawthorn scoring chains that didn’t have a free kick in them

 

[Long Live HFC]

What’s your theory?

Exactly. So mucb sooking over the years; never a coherent narrative explaining the supposed intent.

 

[Dewyyyyy]

The stats back me up mate. 9-0 run to start the 4th followed up by a 27-16 count being whittled away in minutes to make it look respectable

Free kick count

How about watch the game with a brain connected?

Hawthorns pressure rating was 220 and off the charts good all game, it was wet and slippery and Carlton were either hacking it or not handling the pressure in large lapses.

That's the only coaching lever he has to pull.

If Curnow can't get frees he is irrelevant

Not going to get them v Hawthorn.

Yeah buddy, it’s got a fair bit to do with shrugging, dropping the knees, leading with the head. You see, these actions are against the spirit of the game and should be a free paid against the instigating team and probably a fine to the club. You would think?

Hawthorn got a gifted run.

Yeah I seen the stats, but why do you think this is happening?
