Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2023

They would have struggled to kick 3 goals last night without the two KPFs. I think they're fine as long as both play at least 16 games. Might get dicey without them.

North’s midfield was all over them at stages yesterday. There’s still something that feels very brittle about Carlton

in the team is an assault on everything I thought I knew about footy

Paddy McCartin looks ****ed

Knocked out again?

 

[Chief Brody]

Paddy McCartin looks ****ed

Yer he looked awful poor bloke

 

[Sweetback]

Knocked out again?

Yeah, looked innocuous like his head hit the ground but didn’t seem like much. Then had to be helped to the bench and had no legs. On the bench he was completely away with the fairies. Not good.

 

[Sweetback]

Horrible. That’s probably his career

It was weird though, didn't look like much in it at all. Like his head just grazed the turf basically

I was wondering if it happened before then and there was a delay. Not sure if it works that way though

Shouldn’t be playing, always thought it was ridiculous Sydney got praise for picking a player who was delisted for concussion.

 

[King Tenz]

Why does every team look better then us when going inside forward 50?

 

[freo1997]

Because they get it in there as quick as possible and there are big open spaces to lead into in their f50.

Surely the afl have to show duty of care to not permit him to play anymore now

 

[estibador]

Saints v GC is a good game so far.

Negative is GC will probably smack us next week.

Basically everytime you suffer from a concussion, you become more susceptible to them and it takes less force to suffer one. Paddy could get concussed from a strong gust of wind. For his own safety the AFL need to ban him for life (and give him a hefty payout).

 

[estibador]

We are literally the only club who seems determined to hold play up to give the opposition time to get back.

It would be comical except for the fact that... you know... it's us. FML.

Massively negligent to let him play again at all. Saints didn’t make a decision to delist a number one draft pick for nothing lightly

 

[FreoRicci]

This Gold Coast midfield will destroy the little boys of ours

 

[mattis117]

Think mcartin actually head butted backside of the player in front of him, it wasn't contact with the ground

Sydney get a lot of run from behind. A mark in the middle gets support from defenders running through. Our defenders do not do this

I love that you proved my point perfectly by referring to a game I wasn't even watching.

I'm watching Saints/GC and they're both making us look second rate when it comes to that hipster fad of leading forwards.

“Why doesn’t Freo play like this?” could be asked of any of the other 8 games I spose

But do all their forwards lead to the same exact spot every time, so they have three targets all one on top of the other?? Under the ball and out of position??
Stacks on the mill same spot forward craft is the true new blue fad...
