Why do you say that?

We were keen on him at draft obviously and have stayed in touch. Let’s wait and see what happens over the next few years at the Suns…

Sam Weideman is having a really good game tonight. Best I’ve seen him play I think. 
Good to see him doing well. 
 

(have just realised how handy he might be now, damn)

He’s had a few good games this year. It’s good to see him stepping up as a focal point. He’s been better than our tall forward this year for the most part!

[DubDee 26,117]

just showed the footage of the north interchange infringement. they had one planned last change. then Shiel hobbled off with cramp and some player ran on

surely a sensible organisation would just say you have to pull the bloke back off. not wait a minute it’ll the ball is with 50 and hand the game to Sydney. 

really embarrassing rule

After his first 2 goals he kicked 3 points. Led/marked well though.

A couple of those points weren’t from the easiest of set-shots. But yeah, he wasn’t clunking his marks this well with us.

The problem seems to be when the penalty is called. It can be really badly manipulated, as we saw today.

Today a free to North was then overturned to pay the interchange penalty. Is that in the rules, I would think not.

Waiting until the ball is forward of centre guarantees a goal.

What makes you say that?

some brilliance from cameron

bears keeping gc17 at arm's length

[DubDee 26,117]

serious question 

does anyone else get annoyed that the camera zooms in on play and we lose the wide angle view?

they do it more and more. take that great Cameron goal. zoomed in on him so you lose all perspective. 

i think this might be my personal pet peeve but it would make me feel better if anyone even got what i’m taking about. god knows my wife couldn’t give a [censored]

That handsome Sam Weideman fella from Bombers looks decent. 

Can't kick to save his life.

[DubDee 26,117]

has there ever been a number 1 draft pick that has copped less criticism or interest than McGrath? 

decent player but nothing special. Jack Watts must be scratching his head

It’s a Saturday night. I bet Wattsy has better things to do.

[Ethan Tremblay 30,966]

He sounds like a “Jobe.”

[Fork 'em 6,991]

Dusty Martin is the best kick in the league by a fair margin.

Who’s the commentator that’s been sucking on the helium?

any chance Daniher could pick a new song? Let it go is killing me

DubDee - I am with you 100% on this.  Last night there was so much zoom in that viewers had no idea about what was up the field and where anyone was aiming much of the time.  Appalling.

Is Terry Wallace back on air?

[Gawndy the Great 9,011]

Cannot believe we lost to the Bummers.

[ANG13 2,066]

I could handle a draw.

Saw an ad on social media

Wanted

A nth Melbourne interchange steward that can count to 75

[YearOfTheDees 3,266]

Suffer Tigers.

[dees189227 12,398]

Essendon winning on the siren makes me feel sick.

That Richmond player that kicked it out of bounds on the full beforehand and failed to register a point was shocking

I thought it was Wallace at 1st.
I think it's Burgoyne.

I hate Essendon, but seeing Hardwick suffer in his jocks was pretty enjoyable.

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,274]

I hate Michael Long. I've never forgiven him for his brutal assault on Troy Simmonds in the 2000 GF.

[dees189227 12,398]

Makes the weekend even worse when we lose and those dam bummers win
