I’m sure the all did enough year 8 English to understand rhetorical questions …… didn’t they?

That would very much depend on tone of voice.   So unless said sarcastically it would be said with respect. And you might point at the ground in a noisy environment to ensure your question was heard.  I think this is a serious problem for the rule as it is and can’t be swept under the rug.

    How bad GWS

    Shocking.  I dont see much team game, just relying on each individuals talent.

    St Kilda have the offensive weapons and defensive traits to win this years flag.

    I understand they play Sydney, Brisbane and Geelong twice this year but I’m getting the sense that they’ve got the team buy in that we had last year, and could be on the road to something special this year.

    And they will have chosen a good year to break their drought, post lockdowns.

    Was it Richo who slandered Daisy when she called out the Saints ruck for being in trouble? Seconds later he was back on the bench on the bike

    She got very unfairly slandered and seconds later was proven correct

    Surely less than that.  It is a retirees highlight of the week.

    Jack Hayes has torn his ACL. So unfortunate, I feel for the poor bloke. Hopefully he recovers well and continues his AFL career.

    At 26 he finally cracks it into the big time achieving his dream and this happens. Really feel for him because he is only on a 1 year deal.

    If I had to pick someone to kick a goal to save Jack Higgins' life I'd nominate Max King.

    To be fair, forget to put your bins out and you’re pretty much [censored] for a fortnight.

    Whereas if you don’t win all 3 of your supporters just go home and ask “what is this AFL game?”

    I’m finding this game rather boring.

    But their coach will still say they can make finals 

     

    What an appalling decision that free goal to GW$ Himmelberg - no prior at all.

    If GWS had played as well as they did last week when we hammered them they'd probably be in front tonight. Very frustrating.

    They seem ok, BUT.....

    King - 1 goal 7 behinds.  Could be a decent player if he kicked straight.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
