To be fair, the bathwater back then was likely rife with Tuberculosis and other nasties. 

In 1901 you can add in bubonic plague which first appeared in (I know you guessed it) the suburb of Collingwood.

Wow.... you can now place kick the ball while being tackled and not be pinged!?????

And not one commentator remarked on it. A clear free to the Saints that resulted in a crucial Geelong goal. Just dreadful umpiring.

Saints have lost their last 12 matches at Geelong’s home ground.

Glad we finally got passed over to play down there this year.

Did the filth?

Probably not .

as if the filth would go down there

edit: last three times the puddy tatts hosted the filth was in 1999, then 95, and before that 91

richmond are furious that they've been scheduled down there this year for the first time in seven years

before that they'd not been there for half a decade before that

it's only the minnow melbourne clubs - us, footscray, aints, north - who get shunted down the highway on a regular basis

Yep. In reality it's really another interstate game.

I still can’t believe we had to play them down there last year after they won the 22 premiership and we’d won the 21 premiership. A potential blockbuster game player at a stadium under construction. Tells you everything you need to know about those who run the AFL

and to not have to go there this year we had to accept a pretty crummy fixture of short breaks between games

the worst thing that happened to our club was being perennially poor on field during the dawn of the tv era

Edited March 17, 20241 yr by whatwhat say what
fixture, not draw

The 'draw' and the Geelong factor both are corruptions of our game.  The AFL doesn't provide a fair competition, just one to maximise $ (except in the bewildering case mentioned by Kickit to P).  You might think the betting companies would want a fair competition, but you'd be fooling yourself, since they can make money any old way.

Come on it's Collingwood surely. Even if it wasn't Collingwood before last year it has to be them now.

We've also been cruelled by our home ground being the game's major stadium. Little coincidence that the MCG becoming home to powerful tenant clubs from Richmond in '65ish coincided with our protracted drought. This means we have no home base, and the most negligible home ground advantage in the league.

Danger officially joined the thugs club yesterday. The two other players who are in the club are Cox and Maynard.

We can thank Kate for not going down there this year.

No, you don't have to.   You're making a decision to do so.

ucanchoose not to listen.  Try the mute button.

Huge experience and size difference between West Coast and Port, but West Coast having a red hot crack. They are going to get badly beaten but not by lack of effort or method. 

Does anyone give Freo a chance tonight?

they’re the last leg of my multi and not sure whether to cash out or not. Lions missing Neale and a couple others

Port with 28 inside 50s and 19 scoring shots. 

WC defence doing super

Port should be up by 60pts

Why haven't we seen the footage of the ball hitting the camera from the camera's perspective?

Dogga Time!!!

dumb footy Freo. you can't be gifting goals to the Lions like that.

o mac solid down back for flagmantle

Freo look quite underwhelming.

my cousin is convinced there’s a minimum quota of score reviews to satisfy the sponsors

i think he might be onto something

Zac Bailey has played 120 games? Feels like he’s only been around a few years
