Brownie

He did late in the game, a great blind tap to a team mate at the centre bounce

Some nice taps in the ruck. Really solid mark and goal by Jeffo. He's had a great game

He's had a great last quarter as has the team. Really cool game of footy

End to end Goal to the bombers, maybe not iced! 17.50 down on the clock 17 pts

Come on Kalani. Ice it for us

Mitch Hardie mark and goal from 45m. 17up Keep pushing fellas

Make it 4. But then Cross Rove's and snaps off the pack to snag one. Go Dees. We're working hard right now 11 up

Geez, 3 very good chances for a goal all blown Damm

Should have had a certain goal then right on 3 QTR time. Kalani White really burnt his team mate then who was by himself with a paddock in front of goal. First game though, so he'll get better I'm sure. Kynan Brown must be real close to a call up Langford and Lindsay both look ready for a breather. Hope he gets a run soon. He has some great speed and is pretty bloody good through traffic. Not confident we'll nail this one unless we really get back to our first quarter form.

goal for bombers after a stupid insufficient intent call against us. It has to be the biggest dumpster fire rule in footy.

Great mark and goal from 50 out by Jack Henderson

Go Dees. Back in front!

Did they break out the bucket bong in the sheds at half time? We've gone to sleep. And.... Nice goal by Harry Sharp from the boundary

Gotta think this will be a close one. Really disappointed with our hacking kicks out of defence last quarter. I reckon we're kicking to the scoring end this quarter and we need to be 3 goals up at 3 QTR time to hold this. Is there a a bit of a breeze to that end?

Geez that was a free kick to north right in their goal square. Disgraceful non call

I gotta say, in general the commentary on the VFL coverage is so much better and relaxing to listen to than the [censored] in the AFL. Give me the likes of Jason Bennett and Ben Brown any day. I've just flicked over the the Norf and Flogmantle game and have had to drop the volume by 50 percent. They don't need to yell at us all the time

Yep. 2 weeks I reckon

Definitely. Pretty close game. We're still working and pressuring hard but our general disposal around the ground has become really sloppy. Lots of turnovers starting to cost us. Jeffo is looking pretty sore after a big hit.

Great snap goal from the boundary by Laurie

Yep, I reckon having that bloke running into space would just lift you as a player. The last few weeks I've been rewinding and watching his impeccable timing at running to forward contests as the ball spills to the ground. He just hits the space with so much pace and snavels that ball up so cleanly. Fritsch just thumped his handball over his shoulder into clear space late in the game on Monday and Kozzy just swooped and delivered. Looking forward to many more rewinds.

I think we blew it earlier when Fritsch didn't handball over the top 20m out to Sparrow (I think) running into an empty goal square. That would have sealed it for us. That cost us the game well before our captain had it on the pies goal line and inexplicably told by the ump to play on.

I guess we need to take a close look at our sponsors and try and find a attractive businesses that can give start players under the table or cheap deals. Real estate companies? Home builders? Financial institutions?

Yep, I think someone mentioned earlier in the thread how Bailey Smith is paid by Cotton On as one of their best paid "ambassadors" It is just outrageous they they have room to recruit the likes of Harley Reid or Butters. This comp is so far from a level playing field. Cheats working in a rigged system

That roving running goal late in the game was much more difficult than it looked. Sprinting hard at the boundary about 35m out, and he's just snapped it across his body. He's just incredible to watch

Media - ABC breakfast this morning, Max shoving May. That's about it. If umpiring standards never gets talked about in the media, it will never get fixed. Totally should be a professional career path. I was disgusted by the display yesterday but honestly, the preview of the next grade down with the Casey vs Pies game on Saturday was incredibly biased and incompetent. Anyone else see the game? It's frightening to see the lack of quality at the next level down Unless this becomes a problem talked about constantly by the media, the AFL will never fix it. So what action can we take?
