Rod Grinter Riot Squad

Wow, hasn't felt that way

Every time I see Norf play, they seem to get an amazingly good run with the maggots. one reason I hate them

The AFL is as corrupt as they come.

Let him whinge. he is an expert at that

Seriously, who the hell is purple to criticise anyone for being arrogant. At least has something to back the arrogance up with.

He hasn't been able to sleep, God has been shaming him for his cowards punch, he wants to apologise and ask all our forgiveness. he will never do it again. Well, not until he gets a chance when an opponent isn't looking at least.

Viney used an open hand, never anything in it. didnt see Bugg incident, but have read about it and a fine seems fair enough IMO

I feel a bit dirty, but couldn't help but find myself smiling for Mason Cox after kicking a goal with his first kick in AFL and what a stage to do it, first kick of the game. cloke must have loved it ......

Honestly think it should be double this, like Conca before, this was just a cowardly assault from behind. Any penalty for hitting a player from behind, like in these two instances, should see an automatic doubling of any penalty.

Like many, I reckon Gus is NQR right now. i love the kid and consider him a walk up start in our best 22 when he is fully fit. I suspect though that he is not fully fit, or at least he is not fully match fit. He is a second year player who has missed a decent chunk in both of his preseasons and IMO needs to go back to Casey and play in the middle for 3 or 4 weeks until he is fully match fit.

So after 7's new low with cutting to ads in the last post they show they have learnt their lesson and are a lot more respectful. They open the coverage with the commentators trying to make it all about themselves, introducing us to their family members who fought.

The team must wear an older Brisbane Bears style uniform, saw that and wondered what that was doing out there, now I know.

I don't buy it either, there is a reason I have intensely disliked Rance for a long time. look at the quarter time blue, the sod gives Bugg a very forceful shove when Bugg wasn't looking and goes to walk off, like it wasn't him - weak. That said, he is like his team, look at them all tough and trying to bully Slalem when it was 4 or 5 versus one, but they back-pedalled big time when the likes of Viney, Dunn and Pedo got in their faces. As a team they are a classic case of being the school bully who empties their stomach whenever anyone stands up to them. They are a toothless mob of cowards these Tiges, only tough when they have the numerical advantage, they probably would be better off (as Bugg suggested) by selecting Cotchin's wife as she shows more fight than these weak cowards.

Bought up in the match day thread

No, which is why I suspect it was a goal.

While I have always disliked him and now quite hate him, he is not yet at the level of Vickery

Still can't believe anyone would think Viney might be in trouble. watch it again, he put Rance to the ground twice and yet the two tigers who came to support Rance, were not remonstrating but just pushing Viney away. They knew Viney had done next to nothing and that Rance deserved a lot more than what he got

Bit rough on Hogan. Competed well in the air and bought the ball to ground that led to a number of goals

No

Viney broke the clubs contested possession record

Shouldn't even get a fine (for the reaction to the coward). May have to open his wallet for some wrestling, but not that.

Would like to do what Rance did to Andrew Wu

That [censored] Carey, defending Rance and the frustration, "he gets double teamed and triple teamed every week" Since when does a defender get triple teamed? You back on the powder Wayne?

I asked this in the game day thread. are you suggesting Viney gets a week for his initial reaction or something else?

Absolutely pumped. Great effort. Every time they came at us, we stood up and answered. So un-Melbourne like. Loved the way we didn't back down. Rance is a cowardly [censored] and Viney should be congratulated for his restrained response. and Hardwick, enjoy your week.
