Wouldn't say sombre, more 'distracted' if that makes sense at all?

You're reading too much into it 'Nev'

No, it makes no sense. 

[Mazer Rackham 14,971]

It'll be something like, Zorko said "your sister wears army boots", not knowing that during the week, Petty's sister was indeed found to be wearing army boots.

For "army boots", substitute something far more intensely personal.

Zorko probably didn't know that he'd touched a raw nerve, but when you're playing Mr Tough Guy, things can backfire on you.

Could be distracted by the Petty issue or could be focused on finals because that is all that counts.

Reminiscent of the Selwood/Headland incident.

If anything I just thought they were all trying to avoid Roaming [censored]. 

[Winter Dan 470]

Zorko is such a [censored].

Wouldn't be suprised if he had 4 citations at the tribunal this wk.

Alan Richardson commented on it post game, Goody spoke about it in the presser, May talked about it post-match, so have most players. Clearly it's on their minds.

They're trying to stay professional. They will let the relevant parties sort it out.

Not that 'Nev' your talk about the players reaction in the rooms after the game is what I'm talking about and you know it.

What are you on tonight???

The Petty/Zorko thing is big, we all know that.

They were all asked about it, they didn’t bring it up themselves… it’s funny how you tend to think about something when asked about it. Why the need to dramatise everything?

Goodwin punting to the AFL means he is pretty filthy about it - didn’t diffuse it, just played a straight bat.

The Lions head of footy didn’t contest what was said - only that Zorko apologised and so did the Lions.

The best thing that could happen for the Lions heading into a game with the Tigers is for Zorko to be suspended.

Give them a chance to win…

Zorko is shizen under the finger nails. You can call somebody a [censored] on the field but if you call out some ones family member a [censored] you have crossed a bridge too far.

Right, so it's a big thing, they're all commenting on it, but it's totally not effecting them... ok.

Richardson literally sough out an interview after the game.

Embarrassing how much you follow me around. Stick to the 'make off it what you will' routine.

I've always felt like Dayne Zorko is a [censored]. I suppose this confirms it.

They're copping heat already online for "faux toughness", which is very accurate. Zorko, Mathieson, Robinson, all pretty rubbish fellows.

Zorko got caught stone cold holding the ball by Langdon in the first quarter and reacted by grabbing Langdon's hair and putting him in a headlock. [censored].

I might be unique in this opinion but I’ve got respect for mitch robinson. Has always played hard, lived on the edge and got the best out of himself. Called is bruise free when we were.

Zorko has always been a crap bloke. Look at his run ins with Touk Miller. He is the worst captain in the AFL by a mile. They will never win a premiership with him as captain
