Great comparison @bobo and yep, the corruption is ruining the game. The AFL is a disgrace

Kate Roffey has some media skills and profile and should be out there being more vocal. That's what the powerful clubs do. I like her, I really do. She has a lot of time for the fans and members. It's very strange to see her go to ground like this.

Yep we're better with Petty back and Tmac forward

Sure am. Free tix from a good mate who's a lions member. Would love to hear the Gabba go quiet in the last qtr. Fingers crossed. R U up there too?

Have a weisenstaphner pilsner and a pork knuckle for me. Probably my favourite beer ever. Oh and have some schnapps too!

Yep I agree chook, I still think we'd be better running him as sub for a while and give some youngsters a crack first. Having him come on midway through the third as an impact player might be a better way to manage his fitness levels for the moment. Might be a better way to reduce his frustration with the heavy tags flright from the start of games too. Can't See it happening though. Can't see him being dropped either with Tracc out now. He is one of the best midfielders I've ever seen. God I hope he gets back to his best somehow and he's still wearing our jumper. A wicked problem for everyone at the club right now

Then why play Clarry? Run him as sub and start brown on the field. Make Clarry earn a full game.

JVR 68 percent time on ground tonight. Weird

Me too, 3 hour drive up. Feeling quite nauseous about it. Will be in the lions members section.

Yep. I've seen this movie before. Trying to ice it with 6 mins to go

Leaving Oliver on. Are we tanking? Poor kid 10 minutes of game time. That's just cruel and stupid

Love it. I reckon it was "make it look like I passed out in my undies at a 21st and my drunken mates have got stuck into me with a couple of Nikko pens"

Man he's cooked. I don't think he has the speed or endurance

All season

I agree. He would have been better as our sub and Brown should be out there.

We'd have to miss finals for it to be considered I'd say.

Geez Norf supporters would be vomiting at that 50 to Carlton

That's the tricky bit. It's all about leveraging exposure for their partners Totally agree we shouldn't watch it. However, we want to support our club and attend or watch games where we can. Maybe it's less Kayo and attending more local footy matches. It's still a wonderful game to watch, it's just becoming a complete dog's brekkie at the highest level.

Just woeful standards. Nothing to see here. https://www.theroar.com.au/afl/video/thats-a-clanger-jimmy-bartel-raises-several-costly-umpiring-blunders-in-pies-huge-comeback-1359910/

In the last few minutes, there was a North player leading in an open chase for the ball heading towards their half forward line. The chasing pies player just blatantly pushed him in the back sending him sprawling. Two pies player's just scooped the ball up and took it forward. Pushing in the back is rapidly disappearing as a free kick as well.

I swear he blew the whistle and started to pay it and then just called play on.

There were two htbs right in the Roos goals not paid and then the 50m paid or not paid? The ump should have called it back and set the mark with the 50m paid I thought. 14 frees to the pies to 3 to the Roos in the second half. Heartbreaking for their fans.

Love to know what the second half count is. The umps are doing everything they can at the moment

Oh yuck

I'd be really enjoying this if I could just obliterate last week's memory
