On the roar and fox footy. I don't understand Chris Scott is a very capable advertising executive.

This is Just a complete farce. The AFL is so far from an even playing field. Has the integrity of FIFA They're really taking it seriously hey.

He's a Melbourne player. Lucky he didn't get 4 weeks. Wasn't much in it and yep I'm sure he'll come back firing.

I agree with the Max observation. He's showing a bit of ego trying to land those 50m plus goals. He's just a terrible shot for goal in general Dish it off and let Windsor or Salem deliver it inside 50

Some great signs today of the beginning of the transformation we need. Caleb Windsor is becoming one of my favourites. He's such a small frame but just breaks tackles with ease and delivers the ball so well. He reminds me of Robbie Flower so much.

And Sharp. Our finishing / conversion is a bloody disgrace. I'm really really happy with our start. It's been fantastic, but over the last couple of years, how many games have we blown through poor conversion.

Jack Viney lifting the team again

Nice kick Jack Viney

How was that a mark to Taylor against Gawn. Gawn clearly had first hands on it

Tmacs punch not deliberate. Insane rules of the game

Nice mark Fritta. We're pushing the ball forward and moving it fast.

What a great start for both Tracc and Jeffo!

I'm looking at the same thing wtf?

Hope we do him proud today. An incredible human

I was thinking that watching the start of the swans lions game. Lions were as rusty AF early on. I'm preparing to be quite horrified early on in this game before we try and claw a GWS lead back in the 3rd. I agree it's a huge advantage to those teams who played last week.

C'mon swannies

We're Melbourne supporters, so that duality of state (happy/sad = sappy?) is a perpetual experience for us all for years.

Just checking, did the Lions go to Vegas again this year?

Yep, the AFL will have already made sure there's nothing of substance to find. #supportouraussiefarmers

Has anyone got feedback on the extra coin for 4khd? Is it actually worthwhile? I'm using Starlink and download speed is around 123MBPS TIA

Of all the rule changes in the past decade, this is the one that really frustrates me. I always thought that getting front position was the key objective of a marking contest. Now, a lot of players just play behind and give their opponent a nudge forward with hands in the back at the last moment to mark the ball from an inferior position in the pack. My understandning for the rule was that it allowed (mainly forwards) to not have players backing into their space to spoil so they could hold their ground. But as mentioned above, that should just be good body work to hold your ground. Pushing people in the back has always been a foundation free kick in our game. To allow certain circumstances where you can do it is confusing for umpires, fans and players. It's typical AFL to make these changes without thinking how "hands in the back" get's exploited over time. Above all, it is incredibly dangerous! I don't think the incident on the weekend was a good example. However, I'm really surprised that this "allowance" hasn't led to someone having their neck broken. Every week you see players now jettisoned from a front position completely off balance as bodies come in from all angles. It's an incredibly stupid and dangerous rule change that should be reversed

Just walked in and no replay shown. What exactly happened?

My typing fingers are in disbelief but.... onya Toby Green

You're an absolute gem and a credit to our club GW. Such a lovely story. Have they come down from Alice? And are they from Arrente country up there? It's so important our club looks after these young kids and creates an atmosphere and culture that has them thriving and hopefully wanting to stick fat with us.

A simple game for simple blokes as Roy and HG would say
