Would love for the Swans to be 0-4 after tonight, unfortunately that would mean a West Coast win but you cant have everything.

Also, 

'HAWTHORN recruit Jaeger O'Meara will miss against Geelong and is not certain to return for the Hawks' round five clash against West Coast after suffering a knee injury against Gold Coast last Sunday.'

 

Why isn't this game Free to air?

[censored] [censored] weak AFL.

Amazing .... just automatically thought it was... just went to turn on the game and Home and Away !!!!!!

Tough to pick. Went with the Weagles, but both teams look shaky. 

And is it me, or does Domain Stadium look darker than other grounds at night? 


Not on free to air and not paying live in the AFL app either. I've got a paid subscription in the app and they're not even playing the bloody game! What a rort?!

Can't watch it on my AFL app. What a fark up!

 

Yep, Jack is pretty much finished as a player. Amazing. Was a gun. No longer.

Yeah he's dropped off big time. Not winning much ball, giving away poor are kicks and 50 metre penalties, missing basic kicks. He used to be a very good player but the end appears to be coming quickly for him. Most of Sydneys midfield has been down this year thus far. JPK keeps on trucking, Hannebury and Parker are still winning ball but not having as much impact. They'll welcome Heaney back once he's ready, he's an absolute gun in the making.

Yep, agree with that, but their midfield depth in terms of genuine guns is not what it once was. Or, perhaps, it's more that midfields have to run deeper these days. I'd argue ours runs a lot deeper than theirs. 

Swans, in for a long year. They look Very young but yet look really old all at the same time. 

J Kennedy, farrkk what a gun! Did the Judd trade really work out for them?

How does the 10 metre rule work? No player can be within 10mts right? So if you mark and play in but a player is already within 10 they can now you down?

McGovern, also a really good player. Just rarely gets beaten in the air or at ground level.

Chopping the arms is like East-17, was popular for awhile then died (not literally). 


For such a reliable defender, Grundy has been ordinary this year. And tonight has cost them probably 3 or 4 goals.

The Eagles are an odd side. They've got 3-4 genuine footballers who turn up at every ground, and the rest of them seem to only be able to play at home in front of 30,000 family and friends.

 

Love Aliir Aliir as a player. Would fit in nicely to our back six. As would Jones, who has really become a good player nowadays. Maybe a little defensively left wanting at times, but a really exciting player. And unlike many speedy linebreakers, is tough at the contest and in the air.

Theyll win 10-11 in perth

3 or 4 out of perth

Home final 

Get smashed in a final out of wa

yawn


Swans missing 5ish players. Blooding plenty of good youth. They are set for years to come. Helps getting two number 1 picks when finishing in the top 4. 

Think they'll have a down year, finish around 6th and dominate in the coming years 

Sydney get screwed two weeks running. No more no less. Umpire no 2 pathetic. Same old stagers from Eagles run up free kick gets and of course the crowd noise never influences outcomes. What a joke.Several thousand supporters stop supporting football every year. Someone tweeted that to me.

The last time sydney started this bad was in 1993.  They won one game for the year and I'll remember it to the day I die. 

A Sunday televised game against melbourne during the school holidays. 

 

Im not bitter at all ????

I remember that game. Probably more embaressing than losing to the Essendon VFL side last year.

Having lived in Bridport St for a time, guess i got a soft spot for South so forgive me if i mention their down time sometimes.They were saviours to a lot of the "have nots" in those days and their players and ex players were always in circulation around the traps, happily....

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
