It’s still the FD call. They would have to tick it off.

soft free.

I really like Chandlers game. He is exactly what we need in the HF next year. Love his chase, pace and work ethic. Not the best decision maker - granted - but we need to play him more to rest others throughout the season.

The fact we are chasing Gunston is probably a result of this. Incredibly poor decision making from the football dept. Reeks of desperation.

I think it’s a culmination of things. Injuries, being hunted, game plan were all contributing factors. There is also the belly full element. Our pressure has been off all year - just had to watch the Swans to see the desperation that it takes. Im not holding my breath for next year either. Not saying we will drop away but I think Goody will try to persevere with the current plan. The Cats stuck to their finals flunking game plan for 10 years before Scott finally did something about it. If Goodwin is all about learning I hope he learns that lesson real quick.

Minimal impact on joints so it’ll be fine.

Free kick goals are the worst by a mile. They should get the ARC to review them in F50 from now on to make sure it’s right. Anything outside 50, fair enough I’ll accept the decision as little impact. Think about the 2 BS 50s we got against the Swans in the EF before you reply back and think about how that changed the result. It drives fans nuts especially when it’s proven wrong on the replay.

Yep I’m with you on this. I’ll default to following a Victorian based team but will feel dirty getting behind Geelong.

Oh the irony.

Henney is Sydney’s Trac when it comes to goalkicking

And that’s how you ruin a final. Well done umps.

The difference is that both teams move the ball like lightening and through the corridor. So you can setup for the rebound. When we come in from the wing, kicking it to the fat side will almost certainly result in an opposition score if it’s turned over. We also don’t have the kickers that can deliver it accurately.

Umpiring this Q has been woeful.

Yep they are very well balanced. Their pressure game is best in the comp. The list is very young. Don’t want to say the D word yet but we are entering a Federer, Nadal and Joker like era of footy.

Glad Reid is having a good game against a team other than the Dees.

Crisp is such a gun.

Franklin would have got about 10 frees against MFC.

Didn’t happen to the Cats. They’ll be fine. Won’t do much without a major uplift in preseason. Will get the best pick In the comp , which doesn’t hurt.

The only thing that can top this off is a hammy to Duckwood.

My highlight tonight was getting off the plane with Ricky Ponting. Great fella!

The fact that we lost to this mob makes this game unenjoyable. We should be here tonight.

At face value, I think Buckley would be the worst choice. He is probably too defensively orientated which would reinforce our slow ball movement issues.

Serious? Where did this happen?

Is it that they are still in hunt for a flag? Otherwise why all the secrecy - it’s open season is it not?

100%. Our 2nd half was quite brutal in comparison and even so when the draw is looked at in its totality. What's a bet the eventual winner this year will not be subject to the same draw as we were.
