very interested to see how we go against the aints in a few weeks

they seem to be able to get a man - usually 'missy' higgins - out the back on a regular basis, and max king's height + mobility might actually be a tough match-up for may; i wonder whether petty might be a better match-up

They look like we should be able to do our usual thing - strangle them and prevent too many clean I 50s to King in particular

Agreed he has improved.  We'll have to wait until we play them to see how it pans out!

As above - strangle them.

Cold place near Scotland ?

 

 

First-world problems, but are the Giants' official 'orange and charcoal' colours a con-job? They look orange and blue to me.

Say nothing, it's not hard

He said it hit the ground and he was correct. 

So now you can’t even say something which happened?

That sort of decision is only going to decrease respect, not improve it. 
Absolute rubbish.

He could tell the umpire he is short and ugly too.

It's not a defence.

I love BT’s attention to detail:

Mentioned this is the first AFL game in Canberra for 2 years, since before COVID.

Pretty sure GWS played Dogs in Canberra on a Friday night in round 6 last year. A game which  BT himself would’ve commentated,  being a Friday night game.

I'm waiting for the AFL directive to broadcasters not to replay contentious free kicks.

A simple.... Great call umpire.

They also played a game against the Dees in round 3. Kozzie lit up Manuka that night

How was what he did dissent tho? He wasn’t rude. He wasn’t demonstrative. He wasn’t argumentative. He stated a fact and he was correct. 
The rule is now “don’t talk to umpires”? If it is fine, but last week it was don’t put arms out, and I’ve seen 3 already go unpunished. 

The dissent rule is impossible to umpire consistently.

Needs to urgently replaced with abuse.  Disrespect is just so subjective. Is rolling the eyes allowed?

that's cos it's not a 'rule' it's an 'interpretation'

afl yet again seeing a molehill and making a mess of a mountain out of it

Don't complain about umpiring decisions. It doesn't matter how justified you think you are in telling the umpire that he is wrong, just don't do it. 

Simple.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
