We got one with Grundy’s front on contract. (Pies)

I want them directly in front of goal like I’m every neutral match I watch. 

[Devil In Disguise 2,258]

Before Kosi kicked that goal he was blatantly held in front of the umpire. Maybe we need 5 of them out there.

Reckon the around the ground umpiring has been reasonable so far, but they have no clue when it comes to ruck contests. Grundy getting scragged hard in every contest, gets donuts, so does similar back and the whistle goes!

Yes Grundy being manhandled in the ball ups, before the ball is even bounced and for once decides to put an arm out to keep some distance to contest the ball and gets pinged for a “straight arm”  by the umpire. What are you supposed to do when you get no protection from the umps? And add in Petracca who is being obviously held at stoppages by his tagger, often in front of the umpire but gets nothing. Tracc is getting frustrated for obvious reasons. 

[Brownie 5,921]

The scragging of our players at stoppages is incredible.

ANBs kick into the f50 with a minute to go sums up our forward entries.

We may win this because their defenders are dropping a lot of those bombs into our forwards. I can't get over why we don't lower our eyes. This has been going on for years now.

Anyways, it's going to be a knock it forward at all costs game now and I hope we get up. We should take control but geez I'd like to see some forward connection

Its the same old story we dominated them that quarter for [censored] all result

[Gawndy the Great 9,010]

 Tom Stewart. Stand up guy. What a [censored]. 

[dees189227 12,294]

At least fox footy called out Stewart and what he did

Will Rowan get three weeks for careless high contact on Cameron?

I know this is tongue-in-cheek but what is the difference? Both were contesting the ball. It just goes to show how stupid that rule is.

Fancy having to play here in these conditions and then in The Alice next week in mid 20 temps.

what on earth are you talking about...at quarter time, we were behind; at half time, we're in front

in these conditions, you take it

[Maldonboy38 6,387]

We are now very much on top. The wet ground and the poor excuse for an AFL standard oval kept Geeling in it.

Stop the 3-4 small in close handballs.

We don't crumb packs well at all. Bruhn, Close and Miers are a cut above our crumbing players.

Salem, Hibberd, Grundy, Smith and Rivers playing well.

Please stop kicking it straight to Stewart and Guthrie. 

[Rossmillan 585]

How good is Salem, just finds an option when there isn’t any.

Held? he got full on tackled without the ball

[Big Col 1,328]

Rohan should be looking at weeks for that hit on Cameron. Careless / High /  Severe Impact  = 3 matches.

[Redleg 40,362]

Tom Stewart dog act and Ralphy trying to talk it down to a fine.

Dunstall  more honest said he saw Viney injured, moved over and pushed him over onto the sore shoulder side.

Is that not foreseeable to cause injury.

Watch the media argue against a suspension.

Fox Footy going with a story from the first 15 minutes. Might wanna tell em the score 

2g 7b we kicked to 1g 3b and fox is all Geelong Geelong Geelong

 

They are idiots

[At the break of Gawn 4,450]

Grundy comfortably playing much better than Gawn. You’d almost consider subbing him off if he does nothing in the 3rd and put Spargo on.

Don't forget Grundy was getting hit in the head while the free kick was paid against him too. Yay

[CHF 2,696]

We improved that quarter and upped the pressure. I expect us to step up a bit more this next quarter. 

We will have to if we are to overcome the rubbish umpire's decisions.

This quarter is ours.

True but they dominated us first quarter for little result. It's a cold, wet night at a [censored] of a ground. It's a scrappy game, there will be little highlights tonight just a game to get the job done hopefully.

I hate the scragging, you want to free the game up stop the scragging all over the ground. Trac was well within his rights to have a fit.

what did they say dees189227? That was a real dog act.

[Demonland 70,466]

 

[FarNorthernD 5,861]

With the wet weather having a fresh Spargo to come in could be a big advantage

[The heart beats true 17,907]

Grundy and Smith have both been fantastic.
