Two weeks in a row the Suns have helped us.

Dogs are weak as [censored] like usual

Agree!

it is pretty impressive how the umpiring has gotten worse with an extra ump

My biggest gripe is that you have an umpire standing 1m from a contest calling play on, and then some jerk from 150m away interjects and calls for a free. 
Where did you come from sir and why do you have laser beams for eyes?

I always said they were an important part of the competition and I have no desire to shut them down and steal all their best players

Watched the last quarter of GC and Crows and the umpiring was out of this world.

That good hey? 😂

The standard of umpiring is declining at the same rate as the cost of living is increasing.

That was a really good comeback and win by the gold coast

Speaking of umpiring, I fear they've gone too far with the ducking interpretation. Some players are having their heads nearly taken off without dropping their heads and it's being largely ignored.

And you have to admit the pies are doing it very, very well right now. Don’t necessarily like the club but really admire that team they have playing right now.

I was actually at the game, Pies were great in first qrt ..Eagles were one man on bench from first qrt & then inevitably were run over in the last ..they were done. Pies looked very average in a good half of a game so I just wonder if they’re feeling the pinch a bit. But don’t get too carried away by that last qrt.

Not sure Geelong winning is a good result.

Geelong is still 2 games and percentage behind us. Better than two teams a game behind us, one with a great run home.

Yes very fair call, I probably went to early on that first quarter but essentially they are still a very good team.

The big loser of tonight’s two games is Collingwood.

They know that Geelong is their roadblock to their premiership.

Nothing surer than Geelong going on a stupid 10-1 run into finals.

A certain small forward of ours xomes to mind the

Only interest today is the loser of gws v rich  can pack up and go play golf for the 2nd half of the season. Caroline Wilson said on ch9 preseason that Richmond would make the 8 and give the flag a shake.  yeah Caro. Even the winner cant really make it with freo and suns improving every round.

Norff could be worth a tickle against Essendone.  If umpires favoured Gawn like they do with Draper dees wouldnt lose a game.

[BDA 22,755]

I’ll be shouting hard for north today. 

[Diamond_Jim 12,588]

A Richmond win over the Giants does us no harm

PS: May have gone early

Good job Gold Coast, coming of age. 

[ElDiablo14 4,999]

How can you not push Bolton out of bounds with 5 seconds to go?

Talk about footy smarts.

[Demonstone 22,522]

Regardless of who wins out of GWS and Richmond today, Carlton will finish the round in 14th place.

If that's not the cellar, it's knocking on the cellar door.

Umpires helping Richmond out in the last quarter.

That OOB on the full looked a shocker

[Clintosaurus 7,846]

Little Beddy been good today.

Set him up nicely to kick that last one @DubDee

[Ollie fan 3,408]

It says heaps for the depth that we had last year – and I think, probably still do – the Bedford, Baker, Weideman , Hunt are all doing extremely well at other clubs.
