Although I hate Essendon its probably a better result if they win. Ideally Sydney will be out of contention by the time we play them.

Buddy is a strange bird. Rarely takes a one grab mark. It's like he wants to tap it forward in the marking contest to grab it second time 

Ridiculous that wasn't a free to Hurley

Would have been ridiculous were the opponent not Buddy

And for the second time tonight Hurley looked as if he was about to burst into tears.

Brendan Goddard school of whinging??

Can't ever like Essendon winning, but it suits me just fine if Sydney get the late-season stumbles.

We'll beat the Swans on our day, on pure merit whatever the circumstances, but for the comfort of it I'd like to have a couple of indicators in advance that we'll crush them completely and I wont have to stress too much.

How good is Mc-Tip? Great to watch

Cameron Ling is so painful. Thanks God he was smart enough to realise he wasn’t up to coaching

Wasn’t that a slam tackle by Parish?   Ball free already, and victim’s head slammed into the turf. No comment on ABC radio. Anything said on TV?

Sling tackle by Parish not very Christian- like.

All legal according to Ling. “ One motion BT, one motion”. 

They are everyone’s second team again.

Not Christian like, but will Christian like?   My get he will like especially if Bummers win.

So you can bang an opponents head into the ground if it is in one action?

Depends who you play for

Wtf is wrong with Swans ? ?

With Sydney's downturn in form, this draw is opening up for us slightly. Win tomorrow and we're still in it up to our necks.

That was a Luke Tapscott special from Haywood on the boundary line. A kick like that out on the full ended Tapscott's career.

Tapscott was a poor footballer - way too top heavy

Sydney getting peeled apart by ordinary sides 2 weeks in a row

They're a massive risk of falling out of the 8

I'd be shocked if we don't smash them based on how they're playing. Just gotta take care of Adelaide first.

Christ I hate Ess. 

[censored] hell.. i hate essendon so damn much. their supporters are so disgusting. way worse than the pies in my opinion. i hate to see them win and their fans happy. but.. it helps the dees. 

Wow 27 - 13 frees.

Essendon's 3 so-called big name recruits have shows a bit this year. Stringer, Saad and D Smith.

Port Adelaide's scattergun recruits have done little this year. Watts, Rockcliff, Thomas, Trenners and Dom Barry.
