Re: AFL Rd 9 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Western Bulldogs - Thryleon - 05-16-2023
I watched Liverpool vs Leicester this morning. All 3 goals had an element of subjectivity in the decisions.
One of the commentators mentioned that when you aren't going well these borderline calls don't go your way either. I tend to agree.
The umpiring against the bulldogs wasn't great, but one decision stands out and that was mcgoverb getting front on contact in a marking contest and the call was play on. We were in front by one point. At the ground it looked bad. On replay, not so much so angles can make a big difference.
Ultimately if we were playing better we wouldn't care and odds are we'd get more calls our way.

This is quite relevant when we consider we are playing the Filth this weekend who if they are behind are expected to make a strong final quarter comeback!

According to our friends at Champion Data, Liberatore's game was off the charts, especially his last quarter. Not sure why, in successive weeks, we have to cop 2 blokes who play the game of their lives.

Libba usually does well against us and he lifted in that last 5 mins to help win them the game..
