Rance is such a [censored] flop

Unfortunately don't like the chances of it being graded severely enough

Yeah just saw the replay looks like he only hit shoulder 

Let's hope buddy get rubbed out for 2 for that bump;)

Can't decide who I want to lose more... Sydney if they lose pretty much zero chance of making the 8 which gets rid of one of our competitors... but if Richmond lose then opens up that 4th spot in the top 4.... plus I HATE Richmond 

I dont want to get shot down here but what about both Gawn and Spencer come in for Omac (I know he probably had a career best game on Monday but the doggies forward line isn't huge) and ANB. 

We tried two ruck men for most if not all of the JLT and it seemed to work. Could allow both bigmen to work into match fitness during their rucking duties whilst the other rests forward. This would give us a clear advantage in the hit outs and minimises risk to our AA ruck. All whilst stretching the doggies defence too.

Go dees!

Also Joel Smith will be huge! Get him back later. Can't remember a more impressive first game. Saints were dominating early and he looked very comfortable. 

 

Let's not get ahead of our self with not seeing a more impressive first game. He literally played 15 minutes and had a few touches..

If i was told at the start of year that Gawn and Hogan will miss more games than they play in the opening 10 rounds and we sat 5-5 I would take that for sure!!

Lots of improvement for us in the back half of the year and can make a real good run at it. Hogan and Gawn are arguably our two most important players.

Am I allowed to make my judgment now?

Judge away. That was a shocking quarter.

Do we practise goal kicking ever? 

[censored]

Can see a 10 goal quarter coming up.... not sure what all the posters are complaining about. Pretty hard to get a lead kicking into that tough of a breeze. Reserve your judgements until we switch ends 

Looks like a 4-5 goal breeze going GCs way.

I played a few games with Zak in the under 18s at Mount Eliza (I was a year older but he was playing up a grade or two)

And his attack on the ball at that age was ferocious... to the point where me 6 foot 2 and 100 kgs didn't want to get in his path and I was on the same team!

Made of the right stuff and would slot straight in. Would deffiantly be worth our first round this year... approx pick 10... which ironically is what Nathan was drafted at wasn't it?

Also noticed Weed is an emergency and Watts is listed as on the bench... could we see a late change? Jack seemed a bit off last week might be carrying something? 

Really worried about Lynch and or Wright today. No doubt the suns will target Oscar's match up and exploit that as much as possible. Hoping our mids can be applying relentless pressure on their mid's so the delivery inside 50 can be shocking and get the ball to hit the ground and effectivly take their talls out of the game.

Ah great we are clear favourites...

4 goal loss.

Does anyone have footage of the Hibberd deliberate call? 

Just noticed we get to play them again this year... with all things going well SHOULD have a full strength side and God I hope we demolish those pretenders.

It's funny... usually I calm down after a loss by this point in the week. But I just get more and more mad with the [censored] that was dished up by the umpires on the weekend. Two trips cost us goals by Scott [censored] Thompson and Zack Ziebel.

So many terrible calls against and absurd non calls for us. 

I'm not saying the umpires lost us the game. We should have come out firing and put them away early. 

But [censored] me we were pretty well doomed to lose as soon as Norf had a lead because they could pretty do anything they liked to stop us outside of the rules.

Time left.

Doesn't matter the maggots will make sure norf hold on. Worst umpired game ever and there needs to be some serious explanations for countless [censored] calls

How the actual [censored] was that not 50.... serious please explain AFL this is [censored] criminal 

How does a team dish up this [censored] after fighting so hard to get back in it

BT is also a [censored]... really don't like the channel 7 commentary, although Bartel and Riewoldt are pretty good.

Clean Clearances

Melbourne .... 9 (3 centre)

North Melb ... 7 (5 centre)

They are beating us badly with their pressure & their own much better ball movement.

I feel their spread from the clearance is killing us, so there clearances are much more effective whereas is seems ours is a quick kick forward
