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.

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,370]

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

They care about winning as much as I care about bin night 

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

[Nascent 8,645]

Not sure there's anything to take out of this game. Still not convinced by St Kilda.

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.

Saw a chap in a Dees jumper.

[Nascent 8,645]

Canberra's broadcasting technology still more impressive than GWS.

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

GWS have no game plan

Someone pulled out the audio cable

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?”

Yes they do. Get the ball and kick it.

Remember when Tim Taranto was going to be the next big thing?

I’m finding this game rather boring. 
 

Meat and potatoes type stuff.

But their coach will still say they can make finals 

 

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

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,117]

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.....

Someone needs to end this orange farce 

[dees189227 12,146]

It would be better for us if the giants won just to keep the saints off our tail. 

[monoccular 17,321]

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