  1. If we're playing the cats they'd almost be better off catching a ferry across and driving up the peninsula.
  2. 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.
  4. 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!
  5. Particularly in 2nd half when they were closing the gap. He took several crucial marks, spoils, and kicked reliably.
  6. 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.
  7. Would have called for a straighjacket if you'd suggested at quarter time that Fritsch would snag 7.
  8. 45 goals for 2021. Nice 😀
  9. Aaah Frittata!
  10. 43 goals this year for Fritsch I believe. Fantastic season.
  11. Pretty concerning body language. Hope he's OK.
  12. Essendon nailing the Tigers season 2021 coffin lid pretty tight here.
  13. Shut up Gerard.
  14. Nice kick Fritsch.
  15. Oliver really needs to lift. His AFLCA aspirations are taking a battering here.
  16. Subconsciously keeping a bit in reserve. Not surprising given the turmoil of the last couple of weeks, and the big games to come.
  17. Ffs clarry! Terrible kicking
  18. Nice work by nibbler there
  19. Assuming May back, who goes out?
  20. Carving them up at the moment
  21. Nice work Dogga!
  22. Bulls hit that was touched. Hand was nowhere near it. If anything was hand on boot. Fycking robbed.
  23. Good work smith
  24. We've really been through the wringer off-field the past couple of weeks. Sightseeing the eastern seaboard by air all day before gold coast, 7 day quarantine before west coast, the shameful online vilification of Kossie, now this. Ugh.
  25. Popped onto the match page on the AFL app. Oddly I didn't see any mention of this incident. If it was ANB they'd already be building the gallows.
