low flying Robbo

I think it was clear enough that Weid was Clearly going to get the loose ball and have the advantage. The umps took a long time to think about it and eventually paid it. Surprising, normally we would get screwed by this

Loving this thread guys. Well done for engaging in this thorough review of the game plan. Having never really played the game passed Under 12s I haven't ever looked into it that deeply. One thing I just completely don't understand is what happened in the doggies game. We managed to shut down the Saints from their backline so well on the weekend, but against the Dogs they had half the ground free to waltz it down. It was like they had spare players on the field. What was going on?

lol jinx

Close. Drop the E. I too love the dish. Best time I've had it was a random restaurant in Tokyo where we didn't speak any Japanese and they didn't speak any English but we just pointed and nodded. I've now been back to Japan almost a dozen times including living on the north island for a few snow seasons, and bullet-training our way across Honshu for our Honeymoon. Would easily move there if I could.

Cornes would be the worst person to be in a Jury with... Everyone could agree on a verdict and he would go the opposite way just to bring attention to himself...

I had forgotten about the first one and had a serious case of Dejavu later in the game...

What is this strange feeling I have towards the umpires tonight? It’s like the opposite of anger..... got very well looked after by them tonight. Makes up for the last few weeks

I'd challenge it just for the sake of it. Stick it up them

I think I recall a couple where they completely ignored the defender running passed the player with a mark way too close.... The worst was Trac with a free kick on the boundary line later in the game and the Crows player just blatantly dropped the ball right in front of the umpire instead of handing it over....

Lets hope they play the first 2 finals from 2018 on repeat....

I'm so angry at losing that game.... it was there for us to win, but also there has to be a please explain about that umpiring! 10m kicks getting paid for Brisbane, holding the ball calls when there was absolutely zero opportunity.... AARRRRGGGGGGHHHHH Oh and Gerard Healy should never commentate Melbourne games again. He hates us so much. His worst was when Nev was taken high with a bump to the head, he had a go at Nev and failed to mention the Brisbane guy tucking his elbow in and going for the bump

I thought that too. Was pretty solid in defence. Seems the "Frost-ball" has been beaten out of him. Where's the fun in that?

I said it at the time he won the Brownlow. He’s devalued the award now. Cheap stats

I preferred Maxy giving him the dont argue and getting away from him. I need to go find that footage.

That is up there as one of my best football moments at the G... Watching the crowd rise as they realised what was about to happen was awesome

The Melbourne A-League teams missed the border closure. They were all on a plane last night but got cancelled due to fog in Canberra... Clock hits midnight and now its oh well too bad ?

I would love to hear what the midfield/forward coaches have to say when reviewing our entries into 50.... It hasn't work so far to bomb it to a contest so why oh why do we not change the plan? The tigers took sooooo many easy marks in defence...

I saw a lot of strange umpiring decisions, but was surprised to see the count almost even at half time...

At the same time

He can do that while Danger is still firmly embedded into the grass

I'd rather see Vanders crush him into the turf

So what are your thoughts on 17,500 people dying in New York City alone? The reason we are nowhere near that is due to the actions that have been taken

Tuned in to 360 last night and Robbo was really flying the Essendon flag. Gerard was saying how all the clubs were warned before the restart about groups of 8 possibly being unavailable if someone tests positive, and the coaches need to group them accordingly. They were well warned. Then Robbo was saying nah it's unfair.... After a while my wife goes "Who's this guy on the right? He sounds drunk!" ?

It's not often we get a POSTGAME thread before the GAMEDAY thread...

Given what we paid for him, I reckon it's a great pickup for us, even if it's just seeing how the rest of the team is getting around him. We are building a culture!
