i disagree; he's no daisy but he's better than ling, bartel, or most others

i wonder what crowd this dreamtime game will get given the weather?

amazing how meth coke just keep winning despite not looking good; sure the umpire's helped but they know that they're never out of it

each to their own, but his interviews at the end of games are not even up to Ling or Richo level.  His comments add nothing (in fact, tonight he simply repeated what the main commentators said about the ball dropping short in the wet.)  Zero added value or insight.

Hope the tigs thrash the bummers

Looks like we will be playing in similar conditions tomorrow.....

Actually they are bloody good compared to what they were when many on Demonland were young.  There was a time when the most reliable prediction was tomorrow the same as today.  Fast computers, better models and more input data have made a big difference.

Ah so they pay out, so no more people put bets on, i see.......thanks DJ, that makes more sense

Gotta love the forward handball game the tigers have. Awesome to watch when up and running.

Ling!? I'm sorry but this moron carried on last year down at the cattery after they beat us by a kick as if they had won a granny! I respected Ling as a player but as a commentator, he is a [censored].

Richmond is just simple.

I like McAdam, doesn't get involved with the pathetic immature banter that the likes of Taylor, Hamish and other [censored] themselves over.

Ablett can’t keep his hands down. Nice little jab on Miles’ chin. Let’s see how this plays out.

Miles clearly chin-butted Ablett’s fist. He should cop a week downgraded to a fine along with a written apology to Ablett.

Essendon lost. Good times.

Much better angle of Ablett. If AFL fair dinkum he gets a week. He just punches Miles in the bottom of the jaw https://t.co/ZYNdxayZOL

 

 

Intentional, medium, high is two weeks. Even if argued to be low impact, he still gets a week. 

Surely Christian can’t deem this one as unintentional.

I bet on the tigers to win the wooden spoon over a decade ago, had a fair bit on it as well and with about 6 rounds to go Sportsbet paid out. Tigers ended up winning a few and getting off the bottom.

Sportsbet do it for the publicity. I’m still talking about it.

My guess is Christian will deem it as insufficient force. Nothing to see here. 

Next week, Ablett roundhouse kicks someone’s head off.

Christian will say Miles was staging and practically call him a sook.

No way did it look like 80,000 plus at the G from the TV, a Richmond mate at the game isn’t paying it either. Did they take pre sales into account?

What's up with Ablett, it's like after the first one he's got a taste for it - he's got the bloodlust.

Just like a dog that gets the taste for fresh blood, Gary better be put down.
