So king is a professional footballer. Full time job is to kick goals. 0.5. [censored] me

Softest 50 of all time

Are the Lions loading???

All we can hope for is Zak Jones knocking someone out. Saints are pathetic

Saints are not bad they just can’t kick goals or win games

Ratten. Top bloke but the luckiest coach in the AFL right now

Cracking hit from Crouch. Gardiner gone for next week. As will crouch be

Cracking game now. Saints are on big big chance

Kevin Rudd was PM when Daniel Rich won the rising star. How is he still playing??

Anyone know when the womens curtain raiser starts? and can you get in with your barcode for the mens game? assume so as it's only a praccy match

Jordy Lewis to give the pre game talk? remember that game a few years back? him and hogan I think got suspended?

Considering how many sore boys we have, the pre-finals bye could work in our favour. whether we finish 2nd/3rd or 6th it will still help us. Although I have lost some confidence in us over the past 2 months, I still feel we can get up for 2-3 weeks and pull something out of the bag. Like an elite 10K olympic runner waiting for the last 2 laps

Disgusting. First he is knocked out and then abused. I need to brace myself for tomorrow night and these feral blues fans. I hope we smash the [censored]!

Absolutely. Saying to players that this elbow to the back of the head is allowed and acceptable is clearly creating an unsafe working environment that will lead to brain damage and other concussion related issues. The AFL will try to distance themselves saying we said it was 2 weeks but then this external tribunal deemed it fair. Irrelevant I say as the system is created and maintained by the AFL with clear overall accountability.

I love lamp

So anytime you see a bloke with his back turned with eyes on the ball waiting for it to drop from a punch or handball, you can now clean them up with your elbow even if you don’t touch the ball and the bloke is concussed good to know!! Ah Chee will be documenting all these tribunals findings when he decided to sue for his possible brain damage

I agree that the outcome should not dictate the suspension but this is what the AFL do and have stated this. If you initiate the contact and the bloke is concussed you are gone. End of story. so the result is clearly incorrect per the AFLs own rules

Is Ah Chee free to play this weekend? oh right, I forgot [censored] joke

I'm tipping 4 weeks serve them right for wasting our time

Siri - give me the definition of an elbow to the head when the player has his back turned Siri - cheap shot, knocked the bloke out case closed

What a farce hopefully the appeals run out by Saturday!

20 premiership players. We did it last year, we can do it again. just need a major change in form and attacking flair changing fringe players won’t make us better

Easy to focus on our average form, but the Lions have been similar. 4-4 in the last 8 games including: losing to the Tigers when 40pts up narrowly beating the Suns losing to the bombers getting smashed by us they are in average form especially in their midfield. play away to saints and then us. Lions could easily be the ones that finish 6th

The two most likely scenarios are: play Sydney either home or away based on % (if we win both games) finish 2nd/3rd Play Tigers finish 6th (if we lose 1 or both games) Good news is Carlton are a real chance to miss finals on percentage if we beat them Outlier - praying for a miracle - The Saints have 2 huge games and are playing for a finals spot. if they win one or both it is massive for us

Did the ladder predictor for this round if the favourites win. Going to be a massive last round for top 4 and top 8. Lion v Dees and Blues/Pies are HUGE games needless to say. Top 2 and top 4 on the line in one match Geelong 17 4 0 137.7 Melbourne 15 6 0 127.7 Sydney 15 6 0 126.6 Brisbane Lions 15 6 0 124.0 Collingwood 15 6 0 105.6
