Review Vs Geelong (we effin' did it) Autopsy Thread

[boneofshin]

Geelong (92) v North Melbourne (98)

Despite the Channel Seven commentary team’s best efforts, North Melbourne managed to defeat the Cats in a thrilling game.

To be fair, North looked the better team all evening, but as it seemed Geelong were dead and buried, North decided to go all Norf and almost threw it away.

Bruce McAvaney really tried to get Geelong home by telling us how amazing Joel Selwood is every two minutes and also repeatedly telling us that the Cats always win the close ones.

He was well supported by Tom Harley, who high on a cocktail of Swisse placebos, openly barracked all evening.

It was a tough night for Selwood. He played an amazing game, especially early on, despite being caught high by Boomer Harvey.

It left him bleeding all evening. Seriously, when are the umpires going to start protecting him?

For the Kanagaroos, this was a terrific win. It puts all those people who mocked them throughout the year back in their box.

I can tell you, it’s awfully crowded in this box and I would really like to get out. I promise not to make jokes at their expense for at least three paragraphs.

North were very good and what seemed at times to be a wasted season, has now become a very exciting one.

It was especially nice to see Nick Dal Santo gather 35 possessions and he must be deeply upset the Saints didn’t want to keep him.

What does this win mean for the Kangaroos? Apart from a Preliminary Final against the Swans, it means Brad can finally look Chris in the eye at the family Christmas.

The Swans will be tough, but if there’s anyone who can beat them, it’s Hawthorn.

For Chris Scott, it was ‘mission accomplished’ once again, although, annoyingly he still won’t reveal what his mission exactly is. I bet it’s got something to do with these new terror laws.

Geelong seemed to win all year in spite of themselves and going out in straight sets wasn’t a complete surprise.

When the end comes for great teams, it seems to come fast. The question is, has Geelong done enough in recent seasons to turn over their list and make sure this doesn’t happen?

Mark these words for next season, I have absolutely no idea.

Quality write up.

After watching the replay, RE. the commentary, how irritating was the barely muted gigglefest every time Lindsay had an obvious free kick denied, Harleys s****** was easily identified, along with Mathews and Cometti, at least McAvaney was slightly offput

I would have thought you'd be hiding after the finals wins... Us winning must be killing you, yeah?

Why does everything have to be about Hansen with you?

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

I want to make a historical reference but that would be really inappropriate.

Come on, you lose Carlisle and you'll be all over Lachie to replace him.

Gotta love LMac in that celebration clip

 

[GoNorth]

Fantastic! You've got to love him!

I pretty much had the same reaction up in the stands!

 

[Kimbo]

Oh, one more thing.

Hawkins might have been Carey-esque. But he isn't Carey. If he was, they'd have won.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Reminds me of a pose he made in the background after a Petrie goal in an earlier match.

 

[Jonnoo]

Also reminds me of his draft day selection, gif needed please!

I don't rate him as a player never have, this is merely opinion not an outright defamation of character.
