Mmmm, not sure about that. It wasn't just wayward kicking that's bringing this season undone

We are the best bombing in side in the competition. Why aren't we winning? Why can't JVR hold his marks against 3 opponents? I give up for this season

Channel 7 would be freaking out at this low scoring mess

The ruling makes no sense. 1. Should have kept eyes on the ball 2. Should have realised the opponent was coming in at speed head first. (without taking his eyes off the ball?)

Totally. I also think Hunter played a pretty decent game last week. Definitely better than Langdon and we need to get into a groove and start finding form. To just give up another player this weekend because the AFL wants to make another example of one of our players with their screwed up logic is unacceptable. It's expensive for us both on and off the field. We can't let them walk over us even just for a week's suspension. Scumbags

It's very consistent with the standard of umpiring. Two peas in a pod 🫛

There's at least 6 paragraphs of stupidity in the rationale for suspension that gives good ground for appeal I would have thought. Considering the amount of outs we're likely to have this week, I'll be really disappointed if we don't appeal.

We have to appeal

Yeah, there's a lot of players starting to pull this stunt more often. Beginning to look a lot like men's soccer which is just what the AFL want

Naaah, it's Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets. He's a blues supporter

That's the crazy thing for me, he was stationary - point 3. How can his action be reckless or careless when he's stopped and the AFL are arguing he should have jumped out of the way? That's like being charged for being on a pedestrian crossing and doing damage to someone's car who is recklessley speeding into you.

Wow, he's on some serious crack tonight

Maybe they are going to become umpires 😋

There was little use in trying to pull a free kick in that game if you had red and blue on.

Probably both I'd say

Hang on, who are we playing next week? No way was that a dangerous bump. Light that pipe baby

It's called a fabric softener suspension https://youtu.be/UvHl31q7naM

Was it 3 free kicks against Clarry for throwing last night? This whole thing of the umpires are cracking down on X y or z this week is complete BS. How about a focus on the umpires performances. The coach should have pointed it out.

Both Viney and Gawn were physically smashed last night. Jack copped so many high hits with no free kicks. Yeah, I can't understand why the coaches just tried to ignore Butters. I guess they did them same against Gold Coast. Rozas kicked 4 and Anderson had about 37 possies. Goody seems to just be about, "we'll back our brand" and that's it. Seems a bit stubborn / lazy and or dumb. We seem to be more flexible with the changes and rotations through the middle than in the past which is great. Footy really is a game of ebb and flow. We seem to be still very slow on countering the opposition when they start to take control. I dunno, we're not exactly playing consistent, convincing footy in the last 12 months.

The warning signs were there when Hawthorn were clobbering us in clearances last week

Yep. I thought the heavy rain in the third brought us back into it. Before then they were cutting us to shreds off half back. The rain slowed the game down which suited us. As some have said, that whole pre-season dash through the corridor is nowhere to be seen On a dry track, Collingwood will kill us just like the cats did through the centre last year.

They are booing Hunters goal

Please no deetime

This could be a season defining win

I hope we beat you boooing fence posts by a point. What a kick by Rivers. Just sublime
