They should start at the G at the very least, that's where the most important game of the whole season is played (GF).

Can't believe the AFL won't pay 100 grand to have some Phantom cameras! (1,000 fps at 4K).

Just because they are humans doesn't mean that the industry as a whole shouldn't expect some degree of professionalism and performance. If they are not good enough to adjudicate the game fairly and consistently then they shouldn't be awarded games. The AFL should develop full time umpires.

Gents Are we back to 4 weeks ago when we first said it was best to finish 4th? Obviously we need to beat Hawthorn to secure top 4. Then the Sydney game may be inconsequential for us. Would you use the Sydney game to rest players and maybe experiment with some new game day strategies? Viney, Trac, Max, May could benefit from some rest before finals.

[censored] Bulldogs getting Hawthorn confidence even higher before our match. We should still win this rather easily with our much better list.

Why is Richmond tanking? Don't they know the pick doesn't belong to them?

I think the ARC made their decision based on potential contact with the right arm or the leg, not the left hand. In any case that ball wasn't touched.

Sorry for your loss WCW. I hope for the sake of the DA our boys win the flag at the G.

You don't want a similar situation to happen in a PF or GF, if we keep quiet nothing will change.

Yes he was abismal tonight, same as Langdon and Melksham MIA.

Langdon may need a spell and Milkshake regresed today

But what happens to Grundy then?

He's been kicking at 70% efficiency, not a major issue for me if he misses a couple.

Very impressed with JVR, he's taking Weitering to the cleaners

Langdon too immobile and just looking at the ball

Even if they make it, it will be an away EF against Carlton most likely. They will just make the numbers.

10 - zip as well.

@binman what are your thoughts about the cats and pies? Cats generation over? Hope for 5 or 6 years of mediocrity Collingwood not good enough to win the flag?

Jeelong pampered by the AFL, State Gov and the umpires. 🤢🤢

Illegal disposal though.

Bye bye Geelong Smith retired Hawkins next Dangerfield to focus on his off the field duties

Geelong - Pies, can't make up my mind. Pies losing keeps the door open for top spot (albeit a slim chance), but that keeps Geelong's season alive. I think I prefer Geelong out of finals. Adelaide to upset the lions. Ditto GWS at AO. And we beat Carlton locking in the top 4.

Maybe they should have a points system based on the market value. There is already a points system for draft picks, shouldn't be hard to crate an equivalency based on contract money value.

It would be interesting to know what are the needs of the team for the near future. Backline - May's replacement (draft or recruit?) Midfield - JV replacement (is he 29 next year?), Max replacement (Grundy has 4 years only left) Forward line - Is JVR our future KPF? Do we still need to recruit a veteran player to support him at least 3 or 4 seasons?

Could North want to trade 2nd for our 4th and potentially 5th (trade with GC)? If McKay leaves and they get the 3rd pick (unlikely), this would yield North 3rd, 4th and 5th picks. North already has a stacked midfield, they may want to have multiple picks to choose multiple players to strengthen their backline and forward.
