Yep, I think they were. I'm also getting concerned about how many times our captain gets punched in the back of the head due to faux spoils. He was down on all fours after copping another one on Saturday night. It happens every game without the whistle ever being blown. It can't be healthy for him.

I watched three blatant pushes in the back to our players in the last quarter which weren't paid to us. I didn't think the umps were too bad on the whole either. It was great to see the deliberate rule not paid like it has all season as well. #essenflogs

He's been down a bit the last few weeks and I thought he played a cracking game last night. Considering how poorly we'd marked in the forward line all night, I reckon it was the right decision to soak up time and try and ice the game.

I didn't think I'd ever say this, but go Eagles!

Harmed I think

He's having a cracker. Brayshaw seems to be missing. Who shut Merrett down?

I've seen this game before. Our poor entries and goal kicking will lose us this game

The club should put a highlight reel together of Gawn being punched in the back of the head week in week out with no frees paid

I thought we lifted in the 2nd when Oliver started to dominate.

Jones needs a game at Casey

He had a paddock and was their best player last week. Wtf

Gawn is clunking them. Move him forward and put LJ into the ruck.

Maybe heroin?

The old demons would drop this game like a school case The new demons will grind them into the dirt Go new Dee's!

This is truly wonderful. It could turn into the best round of footy all season.

If you couldn't be arsed making the contest, just fall over him.

Exactly! Finish them off Saints. Richmond 9th sounds awesome

Trying to keep the Tigers in it

Stringer seemed to be the stand out last week. Shut him down and we're half way there.

Yep, it would essentially be like having to play an extra final at the cattery in round 23.

The guy can not speak without shouting.

I'm the same, go Lions. We need to beat the bummers and stop relying on other results Masters of our own destiny. We can then sit back and watch the mad scramble below us.

Good article in the Guardian today about the super grubs Sellwood and Greene. Their intention was to injure another player, why weren't they suspended? Comments section is an interesting read as well apart from the [censored] Geelong supporters and the one GWS supporter. (There is only one right?) https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2021/jun/21/joel-selwood-and-toby-greenes-actions-antithetical-to-afl-principles#comments

I expect they'll cramm everyone in to one small section of the G as per the usual safe practice. #respectforthefans

The deliberate out of bounds rule is driving me mad this year too.
