They are. Consistently called against Melbourne.

Great mark Brown. Sticky hands.

Lever jeesus let's not get rubbed out.

Apparently you're not allowed to drop a mark near the boundary now. Horsesh!t.

So not the reqd distance

"Melbourne have been genuinely pathetic any time the heat has been put on them and thats exactly whats going to happen come finals, isn't really a side to fear provided we play our best footy." This goose has no f-ing idea.

If we're playing the cats they'd almost be better off catching a ferry across and driving up the peninsula.

My gears are being ground savagely by the use of "quarterback" by some commentators in recent years.

According to the AFL site, a week's rest will be incorporated during the finals prior to the preliminary final. I'm a bit worried about this - for the top 4 sides that win in week 1, the preliminary final would be their next game, in 3 weeks' time with the bye! Potential for rustiness or degraded match fitness through the roof. Also helps aged or less fit sides such as the Govtfunded Cats.

Interesting the vagaries of the draw there. We've played top 8 teams 9 times. Other top 4 candidates Cats, Dogs, Lions only 8 times, and Port only 7!

Particularly in 2nd half when they were closing the gap. He took several crucial marks, spoils, and kicked reliably.

All of that post-hoc world salad could equally be used to describe a sling tackle the likes of which would see an ANB or similar being handed a 4 week holiday. Hawkins laid his tackle from behind, driving the player forwards with his hands pinned to his sides so he could not protect impact of his head with the ground. Hawkins made ZERO attempt to lessen the impact. As is his modus operandi, he showed f-all duty of care to the opposition player.

Would have called for a straighjacket if you'd suggested at quarter time that Fritsch would snag 7.

45 goals for 2021. Nice 😀

Aaah Frittata!

43 goals this year for Fritsch I believe. Fantastic season.

Pretty concerning body language. Hope he's OK.

Essendon nailing the Tigers season 2021 coffin lid pretty tight here.

Shut up Gerard.

Nice kick Fritsch.

Oliver really needs to lift. His AFLCA aspirations are taking a battering here.

Subconsciously keeping a bit in reserve. Not surprising given the turmoil of the last couple of weeks, and the big games to come.

Ffs clarry! Terrible kicking

Nice work by nibbler there

Assuming May back, who goes out?
