I hope Eddie was watching those final minutes in Paris.

Who was the genius that thinks it's a good idea to have Mr "Justice served" as an anchor for the Olympics?

Is he that well loved outside his filth circles?

    I'm with you. They could still finish too and have a draft hand of three 1st round draft picks which includes Collingwoods one which they gave up for Schultz.

    They're in a really good space with their list build and age demographic.

    Their aim should be a premiership within thr next 3 years imo.

    I hope all their picks become a bust or they are Victorians and leave in 3 years 😜.

    Mason cox had 0 possessions in that final quarter. 

    Honestly it would have made it much sweeter if they did lose last years gf then missed out this year. Oh well unfortunately we can't change the past

    Could end up being pick 6 - 8 for Schultz. Freo are laughing.

    Let's also not forget that Collingwood traded out their 2021 1st round pick the year prior for picks 24, 30 and future 4th in preparation for Nick Daicos. Collingwood slid down the ladder and had they retained their pick they could've had Finn Callaghan as well as Daicos. They've been burned pretty badly so far on future pick trading.

    Long may this continue, they could fall off the cliff in the next couple of years if they can't replenish their list.

    They have one of the worst age profiles in the league.

    Just watched the final 2 minutes. Even if mcstay got that 50 there still would have been time for syd.

    McCrae was getting frustrated in those final moments. Sucked in.

    GWS please

    Just makes it that little bit harder for Geelong to go top 4 and of course if they lose to Freo it's almost a certain lockout of the top 4 by interstate sides.

    Is there a reason the score review shows useless camera angles for over a minute and only after that show the snickometer result?    (I mean a genusine reason, not some AFL crud reason.)

    That buffoon should’ve been banned from Olympics commentary after his deplorable gaffe at the 2010 (or 2014 🤔) Winter Olympics. The Men’s Halfpipe Snowboarding final and American Shaun White absolutely carved up all competition. Immediately afterwards, McGuire had two of our Aussies, one being Scotty James (our best in this event), neither of whom medalled and both of whom were gutted, live at the desk. He said let’s show the footage of the final again. That was bad enough. Then he says to Scotty James, “wanna talk us through Shaun’s incredible gold medal run?” 😳 I was watching it at the time and Scotty’s face said what I and probs everyone in the entire world was thinking, ie. Are you [censored] serious??? Did you just ask a devastated losing Olympic hopeful to describe blow by blow the gold medal winner’s run????” Absolutely inexcusable, and awkward af.

    The good part: after the self-absorbed eejit asked the question Scotty simply said, “No.” Just like that. Legend. 👊🏼

    These score reviews can be so annoying!! When it’s for a possible ‘hit the post’, why don’t they go straight to the snicko thingy, rather than first trying to establish whether or not it touched, using vision that looks like it was taken from the other end of the ground and with pretty much just the one angle!!

    Really? That’s ridiculous. Ok, maybe Matthew Mitcham is unavailable but surely we have a raft of former divers who could commentate.

    He does have a fellow commentator who I think is a former diver, but Tubby tends to hog the commentary 😁

    I finally heard all of what McCrae said about the umpiring.  Wow he just sounded like not only a sore loser, but a spoiled brat. 

    Didn't he tell his team a couple of years ago not to act like lovers.

    Anyway on another note Brisbane are off to a flyer & should be further ahead.

    Brisbane are like the Sri Lankan cricket team, they appeal for everything. Heads being thrown back, flopping, arms being thrown in the air.

    Not surprised to hear this story.

    He's insufferable, it's hard enough to wake up in the early hours of the morning to watch the swimming competition; on top of that I have to listen to that clown.

    Brisbane will get a free hit for coverage in September because the titans aren't playing finals & for the first time in awhile the broncos won't feature. So both nrl teams are out.

    I mean Townsville could make it but they're a bit out of Brisbane

    For a sane insight into Olympics commentary check out Rampaging Roy and HG Nelson's daily show on ABC RN called  People, Medals and Cheese. Very funny and ripped into McGuire a couple of days back, having lifted an eyebrow about Tubby's efforts in the diving earlier.

    why, in the kangas vs meth coke game, are the maggots wearing a light blue colour shirt?

    i reckon at least twice north players have tried to kick it to the umpire cos they've looked up and seen someone in a similar colour to their blue stripes

    who on earth is in charge of this stuff? surely just put them in a colour NOT USED BY EITHER TEAM

    good grief the afl is just a clusterfart of incompetence

    This lions giants game is like when we played the giants.

    We dominated the 1st quarter , but missed easy shots & should have been further in front at 1/4 time.

    Kingsley bakes them & they respond.

    The same thing has happened in this game. The lions should have been 8 goals up

    I love HG & Roy! The Dream (show) that they had during the Sydney Olympics was brilliant (I have the DVDs of it)!

    Their commentary of the men's gymnastics was hilarious. Couldn't get away with it today unfortunately.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
