NON-MFC: Round 16, 2022

[dees189227 12,373]

Ugh aside from our win, today has been a horrific day with both Essendon & Collingwood winning

[Fritta and Turner 4,345]

I would have Rowell anyday

Darcy Moore might have done his knee here. Looks bad for him

Moore done for the season I reckon. There goes Collingwood's chances.

 

David Noble has to get sacked this week. Feel for the guy but Norf are truly a miserable proposition. 

I doubt it.... looked like a bruised knee (hyperextension) rather than something serious

[dees189227 12,373]

I'm watching Wimbledon. But flicking in between.

Will be interesting to see how these older Geelong players get up in 5 days time

Finally the Pies are shown to be the average outfit they are

I think you might be underselling how good the Pies are. 

[John Crow Batty 8,862]

Suns robbed of  a couple of holding the ball frees at the death within scoring range. 

[The heart beats true 18,110]

Collingwood have had so many tight games go their way. To put it into perspective they are 6th on the ladder - but 11th for percentage.

 

[BDA 22,735]

Pies 6th on 10 wins and a percentage of 106. Winning a lot of tight games. Can't continue you'd think.

Dew not happy with the umps. Fair enough I’d say as well shocking non decisions.

How about Took with only eyes for the ball, getting his legs smashed out from under him in that last 4 minutes.... "play on" ....hilarious.

What a joke the umps have turned this game into through their ineptitude.  And the AFL keeps backing them in with their constant "nothing to see here!"

It looks like they have just had the bye renamed Norf

[Fritta and Turner 4,345]

Is Noble worse than Neeld?

Suns stuffed that up completely. Umps didn't help their cause

Seems like you can now take 3 opponents on and get wrapped up in a tackle, make no attempt to get rid of it but as long as you don’t let the ball spill, it’s ball up. Then with 3 minutes to go a Suns bloke barely takes possession and gets stripped of the ball in heavy traffic and it’s incorrect disposal. Glad I am not an umpire.

I’d say Noble will be lucky to be coach by the end of next week.

No coach can survive a series of hidings this bad.

[Tom Dyson 1,633]

as was the case with our game, the interpretation of holding the ball only applied to one team. 

The adjudication of prior opportunity and incorrect disposal has been bafflingly inconsistent today. 

[Jibroni 4,987]

Gees North Melbourne are in a mess, hard to see any light.

No. I feel (for different reasons) that he's the fall guy for an inept club much the same as the late Dean Bailey. Hiding to nothing stuff. For starters, their recruiting has been atrocious

[dl4e 5,851]

Okay Melbourne won but apart from that all I have seen today is disgraceful umpiring. Suns got robbed blind in the last quarter.

[640MD 3,362]

Any win over England has to be applauded even if it is the kiss me hug me !

[640MD 3,362]

Make the umpires professional. Pay then top dollar for a top result

They play North, Adelaide and Essendon for their next three. I hope they don’t but it looks like they keep winning, I think you’re right though, it won’t continue being tight!

Gee ours wasn't too flash...

[BDA 22,735]

Mason Cox has a weird accent going on

Nightmares of a Pies v Cats GF

It's not unlikely

They don’t deserve top dollar with those efforts. First they need to be made accountable for their performances, then comes the pay rise if they deserve them (by the looks of it, they seem to have already pocketed some extra cash from the filth and SA filth on tonight’s performances)

[layzie 33,753]

It makes me sick that Collingwood could actually make top 4.
