Why couldn’t either of these teams kick this poorly against us FFS

That’s really disappointing to hear. I took my 9yo girl and we had front row seats on ground level Olympic stand. She stood up the whole game to see over the fence, waved her flag and accidentally hit people and they were all brilliant about it, just encouraged her to love the team. All were under about 55 so that may explain the difference.

Sensible woman, it’s bloody cold here!

Welcome 31!

Taking my 9yo daughter to her first finals game at the G! Both super pumped. I've shown her some of the goals (Hannan and Melky) from our 2018 finals campaign and given her a sample of the crowd noise, but nothing beats the sound of it live. I'm getting shivers down my spine just recalling it. Reckon she will have a smile from ear to ear when we kick that first goal! Can't wait!

By far the best team across the night! Every time Adelaide has some ascendancy we brought it back on our terms and eventually crushed their spirit. Could easily have been a 5+ plus win, bust couldn’t ask for a better start to the season! Well done Dees!

PAAAXY you beauty!!!

Great effort by the girls tonight all over them now, should be 4-5 goals up but for poor goal kicking.

I went back out of interest to see what the difference is. 2018 he got 48 frees for (22 games, 2.18 per game) 2019 44 (22 games, 2 per game) 2020 6 (9 games, 0.66 per game) 2021 11 (13 games, 0.84 per game) 2022 11 (16 games, 0.68 per game) Quite a different

In days gone by, if a team attempted to physically beat us up like Brisbane tried the other day we would have folded like cream puffs. Instead we returned the favor (legally) and hammered them back into their hole like whack a mole! Loving it!

Reminded me of when you grab someone’s arm and hit them with it and say stop hitting yourself

Jeezus Christ only one team allowed to received holding the ball frees

Jeeez after a great first half of umpiring it’s gone silly all of a sudden

57% inside 50 percentage!

Well that was a thoroughly enjoyable quarter!

So if we win the premiership again, like we did last year with a loading period, would you say we won in spite of loading or because we loaded mid season?

I’ve been banging on about this for months, BBB gets absolutely smashed over and over again and gets doughnuts from the umps. One contest from a few games back I slowmo’d for my wife, BB was simultaneously being arm chopped, pushed in the back and punched in the back of the head, play on said the ump! Naughton would have had the free and a 50 for good measure should the same have occurred to him. I genuinely don’t think BB makes it obvious enough he’s been infringed upon compared to others and as such misses out on several he should get

Great interview with Melky on seven there. Spoke extremely well

Take a bow Melky. Was brilliant tonight!

Melksham should not be dropped again this season

What to kick it out from a behind to a guy standing 10m away on the boundary? Normally we kick it 60m out to the left wing

We are loosing, WHY ARE WE PLAYING DEFENSIVE AND NOT ATTACKING

Love that we had the break up the guts on, so instead we stop and kick it 90degrees to the wing for a turnover. Slow clap demons

Three friggen players out the back, so we kick it to the front. Dead set pack of fools this lot

Well before half time
