amazing how waite has resurrected his career at age 32

swans not getting rewards for effort. forward line lacking goal kickers

Saahhh boring. At this point a very ave semi final weekend indeed.

This weekend is the most boring weekend of finals every year.

Solution?

Semi finals friday night and saturday arvo

Saturday night - some kind of state of origin involving players from 12 teams no longer in the finals.

EDIT - i would propose a 4 team comp between Vic SA WA and allies. first year random draw, 2nd year has winners play off and losers play off.

What a disgracefully over umpired game. Pathetic.

Agreed.

My pet hate is all the coaching by umpires, just pay the free kicks if they are there, don't coach players into preventing them.

Sideney gawn.

I typically don't mind North Melbourne. But as soon as Lyndsay Thomas comes on, i hate them.

My god these commentators are terrible. BT, Darcy, Richo, et al.

damn feel for Garry Rohan. Seems like a great bloke.

Good to see Zac Jones taking after his brother and sporting a big forearm tattoo

Heeney will be a star, but just thinking was vandenBerg eligible to win the AFLPA best first year player?

As much as I hate Kangaroos, its great to see the fall of Sydney.

They will be struggle for a while now the COLA is being phased out and the ridiculous Buddy contract hanging around their neck.

Not when their getting the best players in the draft every year.

tigers supporters will be spewing...

The Swans simply did not deserve to win that game... a totally inept performance. Over-umpired in the second half after they let it go in the first half. Pretty ordinary game for the last three quarters.

terrible goal kicking from both sides

[censored] North Melbourne

Hate those flogs. Can't wait to see them smashed next week!

Well that makes a good football weekend.

Hawks beat my most hated team and Roos beat the biggest salary cap cheats.

Sometimes life is just sweet.

They won't be eagles are pretenders.

North Melbourne's forward line will really stretch West Coast's defense.

Boring weekend of semi finals. Half way through the semi finals i turned it over to Fox Sports 2 to watch Tonga v Georgia in the Rugby World Cup instead.

tigers supporters will be spewing...

About what?

About what?

We would've beaten Sydney tonight. They were that shizen.

I know hypotheticals are pointless but what if....

Dogs v Tigers and Crows v North

North beat Richmond who are a rabble. I don't care who they beat during the season, finals are a different game and Richmond can't mentally make the transition.

Swans had 4 key players out.

Norths first final is next week.

If they get flogged next week and think "oh well we won two" they are kidding themselves. Another team making up the numbers.

And yes, we couldn't beat Carlton.

About what?

north resting their players in round 23 while they played their whole team - cost them last week and theyd have got over the swans tonight.

absolutely disgustingly allowed by the afl when ladder positions were changeable. north wanted to lose that game.

everyone next year who is locked into finals will rest most of their team in r23 next year...
