Autopsy Round 21 2024 – GWS Giants vs Hawthorn, Sunday August 4, 1.10pm AEST, Manuka Oval

[Colonial]

NEVER ****ING SURRENDER!!!!

 

[Adam Giant]

Hawks were the better team for 90% of the match but couldn’t finish it off. Credit to our boys for hanging in there and playing great footy in the last quarter.

 

[I wanna pash Nash]

Well played by your lads, wanted it more in the last and busted their guts. Daniels was terrific and Hogan was great all day.

 

[GWS Goose]

Hoges has to be AA.

Without doubt.
Whitfield probably in at the moment.
Daniels and Toby just outside but coming with a rush

 

[BarryAglett]

Clean sweep in Canberra

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Holy f**k

How did that happen?

I’ll take it though

I'm not sure that is right.
We had the better of it for the front of the first quarter and a lot of the second, but didn't put it on the board.
Clearly dominated the last quarter.

Can someone tell me if that was real?

Tom Green is becoming the footballer we don't need him to be. Becomes less Cripps and more cheap stat padder week by week.

Old school Orange performances at Manuka.

Normal service now resumed.

Fortress Manuka! Canberra is Giants Territory!!

 

[ClockworkOrange]

Very fitting that Tom Green got the last goal too.

Iconic moment for the club in Canberra.

Expect that kick to be replicated at junior footy training all across the ACT next week

That game had some of the most disgracefully one sided officiating I have ever seen. I still can’t believe how we somehow overcame that. Great resilience

Cal 250!

Very, very fitting tribute to the greatest Giant in club history!

Fan Club goes wild. Amazing comeback, unbelievable really.

And just desserts for our last gasp loss earlier in the season.

Not pretty, but happy to take the W.

Disregard.

Just needed an amendment.

"We are dumb for three quarters."

 

[Giant Strides]

Just needed an amendment.

"We are dumb for three quarters."

Most of this year it has been one quarter, maybe two quarters.

We should be getting better, not worse.

 

[Callums_Guns]

I can't believe we won that.

Never in doubt.

 

[GWS Goose]

I can tell you for a fact that ‘Handsome Boy’ was wearing full Swans gear at the away Derby at the SCG earlier this year.

He is definitely a Hawks fan and a Souths fan. Very vocal about it.

I still think overall he is probably the greatest Giant, Toby may have gone past. But they are the quinella

 

[Colonial]

Read the hawks board for that last quarter. Umps hate the hawks supposedly

Literally had the media cheering them on for a game plan that involves playing for high frees.

We had zero hometown umpiring in that game.

He is. Hasn’t had a bad year since year 1.

Edit, read that one again and it makes me sound like I’m bagging year 1.
I mean to say he has never had a bad year in his and our entire history.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

He is. Hasn’t had a bad year since year 1

His contract expires this year, and I hope Cal stays around for a year (or two).

That’s true, but winning the close games is an art and we’re better at it than most. Collingwood were a bit like that last year too.
