Bye Round 11 - Non MFC Games

[Chook 14,619]

If there were any more proof needed that Chris Scott is just riding a talented couple of players to victories at Geelong, it’s that Patrick Dangerfield is apparently calling all the matchday moves in addition to winning games off his own boot too.

[Ethan Tremblay 28,651]

Shut up Ling.

Umpire says to Cockatoo "Don't get sucked in to it Nakia" after Nakia was the one who started the fracas in the first place. Way to show your impartiality umpire!

Can't believe people thought he was a coach in waiting a couple of years ago. Shouldn't be allowed to commentate on any game yet alone Geelong games!

[Sir Why You Little 35,168]

What is it with Umpires and Mellee's

Say nothing. Its not up to you

[CanberraDemon 214]

Geez when Adelaide get beaten, boy do they get beaten!

[Sir Why You Little 35,168]

I can't cope with this commentary. 

3 weeks in a row...

...and Jenkins is right up there with Tippett & Vickery as a useless big man.

Plays small for his height.

If it doesn't come over the back to him he's a waste of space.

I cannot believe this geelong team lost to the bummers. Yes I know that Geelong are on there home ground and its a huge advantage but they just have winners everywhere.

Commentators fixated on a paint brush.

This has been long established.  I'd love nothing more than to knock them out of the finals.

IMO it was zachary the same scenario as us in round 2 last year. They (and we) figured we just had to go through the motions and a win was assured.

Ling says the same thing over and over again every game. "How was that from *insert player here*, Unbelievable courage.. you won't see better than that"

I had to read that a few times - I presume the prudish censor dislikes a term referring to feline creatures. 

[Freddy Fuschia 666]

Watching Hawthorn's pathetic effort on Thursday night and Fremantle the weekend before makes me despair about the valuable 8 premiership points that we pizzed away earlier this year against those two.

We were all saying this about Geelong before as well. But now they've put away the Dogs, Port and Crows on there home deck.

Must be nice having the biggest homeground advantage in the league.

The crow has no-one of Selwood or Danger character. Sloane is a one man band who teams target, no-one in the midfield can help him it seems.

[Diamond_Jim 12,064]

well it seems that there are now three lock ins for the 8. Geelong, Adelaide and GWS. If Freo beat Collingwood then one can almost rule out Collingwood which means that Hawthorn, Carlton, Collingwood, Brisbane are the teams that cannot make it.

Leaves 11 teams vying for five spots. One can start to pencil in Port as a probability for the 8 which means 10 for four spots.

GWS v Essendon is a big game for the Bombers not to mention almost all other games in this round.

It is almost good to be enjoying the bye and watching the permutations play out.

[Willmoy1947 3,824]

The Brothers and Geelong run the AFL now. Representatives on every Board of merit, and advanced knowledge of any rule changes.

Blind freddy could see what is going on and all the press want to do is not rock the boat....

[chook fowler 18,461]

I see Chris Scotts' whingeing continues with his ' please don't suspend Hawkins ' plea. He and his brother never stop moaning. Pathetic.

They try to influence the MRP and the general umpiring during the match. 

Its not subtle but it seems to work for them.
