Moving ,as I do ,in alcoholic circles,both physicaly and socially,i am hoping the Tigers win ,for those inner city types that retain some indiscretion and obnoxious behaviour.

People from Geelong are too common to have any truck with.

Agree have to admire the Tiges. Their pressure all night and numbers around the ball and opponent was fantastic. But when the game was there to be won they cracked Geelong and put the foot down.

I am so bloody sick of all of this 'redemption' [censored] about the bombers.  It was self imposed, knowingly CHEATING on an organisational scale.  No fairytale here.  I hope the Swans absolutely tear

A highlight for me was Joel Selwood ducking into a tackle and looking incredulous that he didn't get a free. It would've been a free at Deliverance Park, no question.

I thought I'd accidentally switched to the NRL final on the other channel. This game is almost unwatchable.

Hilarious the way the commentators are talking up this borefest of a game. Any chance of a goal happening?

High scoring teams like Adelaide and Sydney, even Port, will make mince meat of both these teams.

Geel, GWS, WCE & PORT in one division would have to be the biggest joke of the year. All "Flat-track" bully's of various sorts.

It was Geelong crumbling in the first half. Richmond have fallen off a cliff here.

Yeah it's anyone's game now ... ignoring the umpiring & the game not being an open affair, it's a terrific contest.

What we're seeing is what footy is now.

One of the worst games of football I've ever sat through. Absolute horseshit quality.

Missed it. But hopefully acting for a high free kick?

Maggot 15 - running away with players following , questioning, pleading. Very common occurrence. Where there is smoke there fire.

Apparently went too low and hit the legs. Was just one of many incorrect umpiring decisions for the match (and season). What a shithouse game of football. Both these teams are unbearable. Hard to believe we're watching 2nd vs 3rd. Pressure is intense but skill level and gameplans are absolute horseshit. This match should be used as an example of what is wrong with the modern game.

Sliding rule

Seriously I know this game is close and Richmond applied great pressure in the 1st quarter especially but this game has been shocking. But both teams have kicked 4 and 5 goals respectively. Adelaide kicked more by this time in pouring rain. 

anyway I hope Geelong come back and win and the cameras pan to the tigs fans in the cheer sqaud. However I fear the tigs will hold on and make it o the Grand final.

    TRAINING: Monday 17th February 2025

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
