Weid much stronger marking this quarter, great to see 💙❤️

Not sure what you are saying? It’s positive to discriminate against someone with a disability?

Nor can my mate but he’s ruled out from umpiring the mens because of it, but exceptions given for others. Sounds a lot like discrimination to me

Totally agree. Family friend is ex AFL umpire and still umpires AFLW. Excellent umpire and should be doing both mens and womens. He’s not allowed to umpire the mens because he hurt his shoulder and can’t bounce. Can throw it up just fine. Interestingly one of the umpires out there tonight doesn’t have to bounce it and can throw it up at ruck contest. Hmmmmmmmmm 🤔

Some selfish play there tonight by a few of our boys cost a couple of better shots on goals. Watching the game with my father in law who follows the dogs, bloody infuriating as he continually claims more frees should be paid against us and claims none of ours should be paid 😒

Yeah I’m married to a dogs supporter as are her whole family (she’s one of 6), they firmly believe they deserved every single one of those frees over the past month and that the differential is just because they are first to the ball 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣

I also think there is an element of coaching going on whereby they are coached to exploit the rules through appropriate staging etc. If they just spent a little more time on gaol kicking however.......

Just a clarification, Sam went to Whitefriars College with Tracc which isn’t in the APS system, they are in ACC system which is a lower standard than APS. Your second paragraph is pretty accurate though and he played for Vermont Eagles up to around age 16 I think in the Eastern Football League before a handful of games at various levels up to VFL. Not the background that many others have had the luxury of.

Yeah some feel Brown should have to break down the door to get back in over Weid. PS Not me, straight back in for my mind.

The Brown v Weid debate for me comes down to what each player does when they have a scoreless game. Brown creates far more opportunities for those around him to score than Weid. On that basis he’s first pick when fit. Simple.

I’ve never seen a team get 42 free kicks in a game before! Freo 42 versus 16. must be some kind of answer the ultimate question or something…

Well from what I’ve seen in this finals series, either Taylah is injured and we don’t know about it, or she needs to focus on her boxing and leave afl to those with greater desperation to win

Mitho 🤦‍♂️

Think Taylah got a bit of a spray at half time, much more energy this quarter

That infuriated me, why take off one of your best with less than a minute to go??? Right after she’s kicked a goal?

She’s looked that way for a few weeks. Her second efforts remind me of weiderman on Thursday night… non existent

Really needed that goal, give them the belief they can snatch this

Why the duck do we keep bombing it to Harris with 2-4 players on her?

They’re just better than us. Only thing we can do will be to take some risks and hope for the best. Won’t get even close to winning this playing the current way

I think the thing that can get missed is the on field relationship between Koz and Brown. If BBB isn’t taking the mark, he’s knocking it to where Koz is lurking. Weid and TMac rarely do it. Brown makes Koz better.

Just as good as any other option perhaps? They’d have afl wide stats on kick ins I would have through given its a semi closed skill

I can’t figure out the forward structure tonight, all forwards play from behind, then we kick it out in front as if they’re all leading?

Weidermans 2nd efforts are abysmal

Absolute joke that deliberate call

Why are forwards playing from behind and then we’re kicking it out in front as if they’re leading from the front?
