NON-MFC: Rd 05 2023

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,248]

Carnage 

[Lucifers Hero 39,826]

Dangerfield pushing his thumb into Gibney's eye was as blatant and as deliberate as it gets.  Dog act on a kid who has played 4 games.

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,842]

Geelong paying $1.72 to win by 104 + points.

Is 186 under threat?

It's over 

[YearOfTheDees 3,266]

To West Coasts credit it was only the one really bad quarter that killed them.

Given WC flew a WAFL team into Adelaide I’m flabbergasted they got within 10 goals.

Geelong are clearly saving their best footy for the second half of the season, per last year.

Three more years of Gather Round in Adelaide confirmed.

[Redleg 40,926]

Who allowed the Hawks and Giants jumpers for the same game?

Power and Crows will hate that.

Were other states even considered?

Opportunity to promote the game in non football states lost.

i reckon radelayed makes sense... perth is too far away, sydney doesn't give a flying fig, and brisbane is a combo of both

move it to victoria, ya cowards

Interesting to know who made this call, the outgoing CEO Gill?

[layzie 33,814]

Never a dull moment

seeing as he's never gonna leave, it would seem so...

[layzie 33,814]

Wow, what the hell is the AFL doing? Pretty obviously nothing.

Growing the game in other states? AFL says meh 

[Nascent 9,215]

GWS wanting in on that Harley Reid action.

[Macca 16,972]

Didn't watch the game but noticed the following stats

Hit-outs Cats 61 - 31 Eagles

Clearances Cats 51 -31 Eagles

Marks inside 50 Cats 24 - 13 Eagles

Frees  Eagles 22 - 14 Cats

So the Cats dominated the stoppages and had a dominant forward line but the Eagles were favoured by the umpires?

#FreeKickEagles?

Adelaide and Port should be made to play each other from now on in order to nullify the home ground advantage. 

Essentially both sides are getting one more home game than the rest.

Enrichment 

[pitmaster 3,561]

If contemporary ground staff can handle six games on a wet weekend why can't we train on the MCG?

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,842]

Collingwood look off tonight and are missing their ruckman, De Goey and McStay might be out for the game.

The scary thing about St Kilda is that they’re not even close to full strength.

[dee-tox 4,835]

Saints look good. Bit like us in 2021. Guys taking contested marks. Manic attack on the ball. Working hard to support each other.

[layzie 33,814]

This game stinks 

[layzie 33,814]

I thought the idea of Gather round was not to have games at the same time and stand on their own. 

[DubDee 25,886]

what is it about Hoges, never takes a game apart. should have 5 and they’d be home
