JB and BT are the worst commentators on any TV station! This is an exciting game. They generate zero excitement. It’s so mundane

And add Daisy to the duo and it’s highly painful to listen to. 

Collingwood missing Grundy real bad.

I hope the filth fall in a heap in the 2nd half and get obliterated.

So can someone clarify this for me pls...

Player takes a mark under severe pressure with opponent bearing down.

Opponent runs over the mark in his attempt to spoil and put player off from marking.

Umpire then calls player (who has gone past the mark) to come back a meter or two and stand the mark where he (the umpire) believes the mark was taken.

Player goes back but then does not stand the mark and keeps going back away from the mark.

My understanding was that if he's instructed to come back a meter or two he cant then decide (for himself) that he's now going to run way back behind the mark to an 'outside 5' set up.

In other words the player standing the mark can't have it both ways, especially when instructed by the umpire to go back and stand the mark.

This happened just now in tonight's game... with the umpire doing exactly the above but then allowing player to go back and actually calling him as 'outside 5' after initially calling him back 2 meters (to stand the mark).

Anyone??

Daisy is one of the best special commentators out there! It’s the main commentators jobs to build excitement.

Gee they stuffed up the 6-6-6 structure Collingwood. 

Hopefully Brisbane continue on with this & have a good win

Yes i reckon Daisy should be replaced with our on-the-ground spruiker for the half time Demon Dash.

She's so much easier on the ears  🙉

The implementations of outside 5 and where the mark is are a dog’s breakfast.   Inconsistent

Lions forwards have taken away the aerial dominance of the Pies by often playing them one-on-one. Hipwood is showing what to do with Moore - stand next to him. 

Daniher has shown his best tonight. Get him away from goals and let him influence the play around the ground. 

Around the stoppages, the Lions are doing to the Pies what they did to us. Knowing that the first disposal is usually a small flick handpass, they are chopping it off or denying it completely. A really good tactic in modern footy. Well coached Fagan.

That ruck dominance starting to show

STARTING ???? Pies have been OBLITERATED all night in the Ruck🤣

Wow Lions kicking butt. Glad I paid the tip 

Keep going Brisbane. This is great.

Lovely to watch peeèzweek pies

That was some terrible defence by Collingwood. 

Amazing demo job. Love this. 

Lions remembered how to play football 

Pies getting pantsed here. Sick of hearing how great they are. I hope the Lions put a hundred points on them.

The pies backline is very dysfunctional 

This has 80+ written all over it

So if you give some attention to daicos he hates it.

And we are outright flag favourites as we speak.

I still feel Collingwood aren't out of this. We know how they come back

Not so good from the Golden Boy there

Will be a big ask without a ruckman 

Getting destroyed in the middle
