I guess hes ok for a fanta pants. Will be a big part of future success.

Did anyone count the number of frees Nicholls gave eagles compared to us. Hes a shocker. Id guestimate it was about 14 to seven. He was a shocker in the cats v swans game i watched this year as well. And i agreed with a review of his work of that game that stated...Forward Jeremy Cameron wasnt paid a mark close to goal as umpire Nicholls adjudged the kick had not travelled the required distance, which it did as the AFL accepted the next day. In another piece of play, James Rowbottom should have been penalised for holding the ball from a tackle by Geelong skipper Joel Selwood. Nicholls was again the officiating umpire but he ruled thesiren had saved the Swans. I think he showed constant poor judgement again last night and gave eagles way too many softies close to goal. Obviously hes a lot closer😁 but aside from the sheer number of dubious ones paid it was the lack of holding the man calls he made. Watching the replay, a lot of our players were held off the ball and a couple of the insufficuent intents on a wet night were not in the spirit of the rule or hes adept in mind reading. Time to put him out to pasture.

Absolutely. Even when he wasnt clunking them he got the ball to a comp. Does more than the stats show. So thrilled we got him and hes getting back to his old self.

Agreed. Which is why I thought doggas and bb marks were fantastic.

I noticed with the camera in the rooms we seemed to spend a lot of time during tge lightening break excercising while eagles sat still for most of theirs. I was wondering if we wore ourselves out. At the end of the day eagles had the momentum of ours rubbed out by the break. They stormed home with manic play, bad umpiring, the wind at their backs, nothing to lose and some bad misses and a little panic by us but no cigar. Poor eagles fans. All wet and no points.

Great to see some players return to great form. The only ones struggling are spags and fritta but thats ok ...theyll pick up. Anb, Harmes , Rivers, bb and Jackson are back playing their best and just in time. And we bought in Bowey just before finals.

Hes touted as one of the best ruckman about but we all know that is Maxy as demonstrated last night. Max may be a shocker at set shots although has gotten a little better ie his banana against gc, his crumbing, marking and tap outs are par excellence and he shows a huge ammount of leadership.

Talk about entitled. I do believe their booing does impact the umpiring and is the reason they do it. Its the booing of opposition kicking set shots that does my head in.

Well done Joeboy.

I get why but Bb dropped after three games earlier this was in hindsight a big mistake. H2o under the bridge and im glad hes had time to run into form. As Richardson said last night, not many blokes who have kicked sixty plus three years in a row. Big game and statement from him coming up v the crows.

Great post. Gawn was superb. He was crumbing like a small rover at times and in slippery conditions. Captains effort.

Back to his best form and the same with Luke Jackson. Thought Rivers and Petty were as well. Gee that Bowey is a keeper. Bb is showing us why we lured him. If Fritta gets back to his best as well, its going to be a potent forward line. Hunt was laughing with the boys after the win. Either its not too bad or it is and the bloke is incredibly positive.

And in the wet. Thought he was finished two weeks ago if im honest. Almost best on ground last night.

Was telling that they gave us a purple patch in the third and didnt it make a difference.

Cant they just give us the cup now after lasts night's effort.

One of our best in bizarro world.

Gee that was a great win. Against the hostile booers, umps and weather.....we did it. Trac, Petty, Bowey and bb well done. Back on top. Whoops forgot Jackson. Back in career best.

Oh eagles was robbed.

Woo hooooooo booers

This is the quarter from hell Why is oliver off

6 frees to zero after reset. Booooooooo

Umps working overtime now.

Why play on for Spargo?

Poor kicking from us as usual.

Cant we continue to smash eagles % cos of fan booing?
