Just caught up on the highlights from last night's game & my goodness Collingwood were fumbles galore & Moore is just out of sorts

Moore’s knees do take a regular battering. 😡

Essendon have had 12 Thurs/Fri/Sat night games this year which is an interesting decision by the AFL considering they are rubbish and have done sweet F-all for 2 decades.

TWELVE

And I am proud to say I have watched none of them. Thanks AFL.

It’s deplorable but so the AFL way. TV ratings would be interesting to see for this year.

Could and probably should have been a lot worse for Essendon.

Geelong are still a chip chip team in a corridor world

Headline on AFL.com is a spirited bombers challenge and they lost by 44 points.

That’s how bad they are

The people that have suffered the most from this are bombers supporters so it’s not all bad

Mr Smug (otherwise known as “Fly”),is quoted as saying. “No-one’s bigger than the individual”. !!!!!! Certainly no-one’s bigger than kicker Mason Cox. Is that what he meant? I wonder if he mixes up another metaphor and says….” there’s no “I” in “side”. !!!!!!!!

Thank god it’s not just me that finds McRae smug

I think it's my duty to warn the AFL that the longer they refuse to penalise more severe pushing incidents then there will unfortunately be consequences that could end up being worse than head high contact.

You'll be reassured to learn that an anagram of Gryan is "angry".

When he was born, Mr Miers wanted to call him Brian. The Mrs wanted him to be Graham. So they compromised on “ Gryan”.

But I was hoping for 187.

Great win by The Saints.

They do just enough each year to deny themselves draft access to the high level midfield talent they so desperately need. Brilliant strategy 🤷‍♂️

On the plus side for us, we now move down to the bottom 6 on the ladder so should benefit by getting a better weighted draw next season.

Does any other team get ahead of itself more than what St Kilda do?

Mmmm let me think……..

Bucks is calling the Brisbane game, and is really overdoing the tactical analysis.

We get it mate, you’re available.

all he keeps saying is if you get in your best players hands you’re a higher chance to create a score

no [censored] bucks

The Lions list is ridiculous

and they have the best young players in the country

At least 2 more flags coming to them i reckon

lions in trouble here. swans playing really well

bears' system looked like it had completely broken down

still 20 points down, but another couple of goals to finish this third quarter and it's game on

Come on Brisbane, you have to win to jump Collingwood

If Swans beat the Cats at home next week they’ll finish on 13 wins

assume no chance of finals still but

Levi Ashcroft is 18 yo

unbelievable talent

What a woeful last quarter. Shank central

Gee with Sydney winning it will ups the pressure on every top 8 team. We could really cause some havoc if we had it in us.

Junk time Bailey to the rescue.

Stupid Brisbane. You could have set yourself up beautifully getting 2nd spot & jumping the pies, but you stuffed it
