Jordan gets where the ball is. He is excellent with handball in pressure situations. He gets good distance by foot and he is reasonably quick. I haven't seen a BAD game from him at AFL level. If you have, name it! -

Hahahaha... watch the 8 minute mark of the third qtr... then check the stats!

Deebauched has Dee-botched "GWS beat Geelong at the cattery for the third time. WTF do they know about that ground that Goodwin obviously doesnt." Melbourne defeated Geelong at Kardinia in 2021

I haven't been an apologist for Mark Neeld, but he only coached for 33 games in 2012 - 2013. I don't think he was the only factor in the team's demise in those days. I can only count 10 players from that era who would be considered for selection with our current list (and I'm being generous!).

The top 8 is an elastic band at this stage of the season. Adelaide would take Fremantle's spot if they won today. If that happens there would still be three of the top 8 that we haven't played (four if you count us!). Your point would be stronger if you talked about the other top four beating us!

I went yesterday. Things I liked... Kozzie's miracle Salem showing strong signs that he is back Fritta, not only maintaining brilliance with snap shots, but the one forward who spotted up loose teammates with bullet passes Max treating Darcy and Jackson with disdain in the first Sparrow kicking another clutch set shot Langdon's ball carry & run in second half Petracca 600+ metres gained Brayshaw 500 metres gained (yes, more than his brother) Grundy 320 metres gained (yes, more than Jackson)

Money up, please!
Unfortunately, the Umps are so sensitive to the head/concussion issue that they are being manipulated by players to blow the whistle when they see a head 'jerk'! Its the new 'slip the tackle up to the neck by raising the arm', but, hey, there are four Umps now so everything will be alright!
Free kick Bulldogs!
😄 I Think, apart from being our first premiership coach in over 50 years, he was a bees' penis away from holding the longest consecutive run in the top four.
Time to sack the coach... Drop the Captain... Tank... Remove the forward coach... Burn your membership!
Correct!
Hopelessly negative! I only read it to see how far you are from reality. This one takes the cake! Those that think BBB is a certainty may not have watched Casey. JVR may miss due to collision, not poor form! He makes contests and hits the pack hard.
I was at Metricon for GC's win over Geelong earlier this year. I also was there for our previous game against the Suns. This game panned out as I expected; a four quarter slog! DL's who thought it would be a cakewalk were not reading the room. I was also livid at how Rivers coughed up their last goal, but he fought tooth and nail to make up for it by the final siren. We got away with some borderline decisions in those final minutes, but after an evening of non-decision in GC's favour, I take that as overdue! Congratulations to Viney, Max, Petracca and Olie for showing the way when we were staring down the barrel.
I was ferocious about several umpiring decisions at the ground on Anzac Eve. After watching the replay, I have to concede that the blocking for Fritta's high mark was there. The free against May for rough contact on the members wing was there. However, the non 50 to ANB for being bear-hugged to the ground seconds after marking was an umpiring screamer, as was the non-free for a push-out in a marking contest to Grundy at the Punt Road end. I could go on to mention at least three blatant incorrect Richmond disposals that the umps turned a blind eye to etc. etc. The lesson for me is that my own red & blue glasses cause some irrationality where umpiring is concerned, however, we are correct to suggest the standard of umpiring in our game sucked!
