Oops - I hadn't realised the point was paid as a free

i really don't rate saad at all

for someone who gets fawned over for his kicking, he turns it over far, far too much

I can only ever cheer Carlton on if they're playing Collingwood. Barely. 

Yep. They have that certain untoward feeling about them. Hard to describe but you just know you have to hope they lose up until the one you mentioned. In my lifetime there's been no real rivalry with us except a small window of close wins courtesy of Kozzie and some Carlton sod. But the disdain is certainly strong. With Cwood there is a long history of hatred and harm.

1994 and 2000 finals comes to mind

Hawks are playing very well. 
young and confident 

I'm not barracking for a blues win. It's more a case I really do not want to see the hawks go 3-0. Their supporters arrogance is next level. I don't want to see them up and about.

Carlscum are having a crack, but i still think they will get thrashed by the end…

New season and Curnow still can't be touched.

Never seen a forward gets so much protection from the umpires

Gunna watch the soccer.   Hope both of these sides lose

Commentary on fox is atrocious, it’s like a few drunks at a bar that won’t shutup and know nothing out the game

I am sort of interested in tonight's result, but both teams are so unappealing I reckon I will just glance at the scores from time to time. And as for listening to commentators gush over Curnow, Cripps, Ginnivan, the Temu-wizard etc.... no thanks.

Has anyone else noticed that the Advantage rule has changed interpretation?

it seems that simply all the players stopping and requesting clarity on the free is no longer a problem. As long as one of the team wants to take the advantage.

5–10 Seconds later, “Play on”, No problem.

Yea forgot about those. Well actually I had hypnosis performed to erase the 200 season permanently.

Blues were unlucky in both those seasons.

Not because we beat them but because 94 I think they were one of the better teams and went out in straight sets.

In 2000 urgghhhh, they were probably the only side close to beating Essendon.

Neither channel is appealing. The radio is not much better.
I accidentally hit the mute switch on the remote – and I’ve never been happier!!

Soft free

Hawks are more than capable of playing the contested inside game, like a scrum where they then release out wide and just run.

Better to watch than our style unfortunately.

Big night with Socceroos about to kick off in a must win game against Indonesia and Storm playing Penrith in a GF rematch

“Hollywood Hawks” is one of the cringiest things I’ve heard in a while. An “Mosquito Fleet” is equally as gross. 

Hawks execution by foot is elite

Hawks have some clever players I’ll give em that

Umps will end up awarding both teams 40 frees each

Listening to Matt Hill commentating makes me feel like I’m watching footy from the 70’s and 80’s, bloody fantastic. 

Australia lucky.   Penalty hit the post
