What bloody advantage. Call it back you dill.

100% - set shot on offer.....utter bs

That’s no advantage 

Why does Trac have quiet first quarters?

Once again a late call by the ump means we play on and take the “advantage” which turns out to be the opposite of to advantage. FFS I hate that rule

First qtr thoughts. 
Trac looks off.

Fritta doesn’t look like he has missed. 
we have been sloppy but got better as the qtr went on.

Going by 1st qtr no idea still why Turner replaced Thommo.

Melksham and Kozzie look lively. 

I want to see how many minutes Trac has spent on ball this quarter. My guess is less than 5

Anyone notice we are starting to run in waves again?

They look in great nick.

Sparrow, tracc and riv all look in the best shape I've seen them.

This has the stench of the AFL doing everything they can to get a final played in Sydney.

Yep, there's already a load of smoke beaming up from AFL House.

I have a huge amount of respect for Jake Melksham.

Petracca continuing on his poor form from last week.

He's checked out since Oliver is back, very worrying 

Bowza has lost form

Home or away they’re completely incapable of understanding either HTB or prior opportunity

Brownlow talk has gotten to his head.

Oliver's been good.

Why not call it back when it’s obvious there was no advantage. Should be in the rule book

Boweys form not great heading into finals 

Surely Hibberd comes in for Bowey & Hunter’s possessions are ineffective & his tackles are like powder puffs

It's a joke. Such an infuriating rule. E

Often either turns out not to he an advantage, or in the event every just stops, an unfair disadvantage to the team the free has been paid against.

I wonder when a side will man up after a point against sides, shut it down instead of letting it out.  If you look down the ground after a swans point every player is up around the midfield area, pull players back have less congestion and allow players to run onto it or over the back.

Our centre clearance game has been down the last few months. Need to sharpen it up in not let it out so easy
