  1. Agree. GC at Marvel tomorrow. Bring WC here. We play next 3 here and last at kitty litter oval.
  2. Hopefully the game if that happens can’t affect our position and we play all our reserves and Suns players are in holiday mode.

    Jamarra, yes he was gifted to the Bulldogs, together with countless dodgy umpiring decisions over the last 5 or so years.

    MFCSS to the fore. If there was a club in the AFL this would happen of course it's us. Put 5 years into a kid who could be whisked away. At the same time, this rule doesn't apply to a 2020 Preliminary final team. Yes all is fair in the AFL.

    No doubt about that. Demetriou wanted it buried. She kept digging and shovelling.

    Looks that way and he has picked up full pay from Hawks for next year plus probably a $1.5m gig with the blues. Guessing he can buy another property off the back of somewhere north of say $2.5m for 2022.
  7. Then he will fit in magnificently. I would play him ahead of ANB this week. Create some more pace and a point of difference.
  8. Called it a day already?
  9. Someone posted that if we halved the difference between missed shots in the games we lost and drew, a few points converted to goals, we would have won all of them comfortably. That without playing any better. Interesting!
  10. If we win the next 3 the Cats game might not matter too much.
  11. First thing we need to do is win the next 3 to finish top 4. Lions could win all 4 and also Swans.
  12. Our game the last few weeks has become : See ball, Get ball: Miss goals: Turnover ball.
  13. Hard to disagree with any of that. Think you were generous with the umpiring. I would bring in Bedford for ANB. I said Weid for Jackson as he needed a rest. Don’t think he has taken a mark in weeks. I think Hibberd is done.
  14. Our skills are not great and when you play a side that are highly skilled it shows. Missing easy goals every week is becoming very costly. Sh-t umpiring doesn’t help.
  15. No they didn’t, but in close games getting a ride like this lifts the team and deflates the victim. Dogs certainly handling the ball better. Our kicking for goal has cost us again. Dominated most of that quarter for no reward.
  16. 14-4 for a game like this is not favouring it is gifting a game.
  17. I was wrong I said umpires would favour Dogs, didn’t know they would give them the game. 14-4 and a wrong free kick goal. What a bloody joke.

    And in 20 seconds into the last the GC Captain kicks it to a Lion in their goal square. Unbelievable. Really inspiring.

    No, we will be pinged relentlessly in a millisecond, while the Digs will throw the ball and hold it while tackled with impugnity. Why should anything change. The GC have been slaughtered in the 3rd quarter by the umpires and their pathetic disposal. It is beyond belief how bad it has been this quarter. They need one quarter like their first 2 and they can still win.

    Media saying we can’t play them next week because of COVID quarantine issues. They could get stronger with the return of Holman and Ellis later in the year. Anyway we have to beat them whenever we play, if we want to end up top 2.

    I really thought they would chase Clarko hard, but he has said so many times that he is not leaving, that I now wonder if it is Ross Lyon.

    Are they tanking to get a bottom pick for Cerra? Petrevski Seton wanted by Dockers and together with a high pick and something else, might get a deal done. PS: I know players don’t tank.

    Just saw 2 players run within a couple of metres of the player with the mark and then a player swung 360 with the ball and then hold it, while he booked an uber and guess what, play on, nothing to see here. I think back to Gawn’s 50 penalty last week, which cost a goal, when he was about 30 metres from the player with the mark and was following his man and the Tracc holding the ball, after a 1 second tackle on him. I have loved the consistency of umpiring this season.
  24. Take our opportunities will be a good start.
