Does anyone on this thread know how many of our players are ill?

By the way Oliver's tag wouldn't have happened with Harmes in the side. I also think there were a couple of other flow on effects in that game against Freo which we had the "inside info on" but didn't use it.

AMAZING DIFFERENCE WHEN A RUCKMAN IS ALLOWED TO GET NEAR A MARKING CONTEST..

Thanks Mick

In my opinion the Umpiring "Fraternity" need to have a look at the way they are being viewed. If money has no limit when it comes to other things AFL, Fix the game up from cheating or just have a free for all..

Petty I think was tripped by Lobb

Anyone else notice opp teams now not getting called for 15mtr short short passing and any other sort of minor interference.Also in loose ball play no frees paid to us but as soon as possession by opp they get the free kick or magically outside possession.

Be very interested in hearing Angus's opinions on the way that loss came about.

You cannot take a mark, if you are not allowed to get near the ball.One maggot One Free kick to Max and none to Brownie. Manufactured win by the maggots in my OP.

Tex to Pies then

Carlton or Brisbane with an outside chance of North

Yep, I'm the same , Melky plays 200.He would probably like to play it with Hibbo. Hope he kicks four and we have good celebratory win. I'm pretty sure he will finish this year with a young family and help us with our new contracts to be done.

I'm not taking too many teams seriously only after Rd 10, except us and maybe Tiges

Good post There would be no pressure coming from anywhere that counts for him to go. He's really articulate, smart and well travelled. His health is really important to himself family and all of us, me thinks..

That first incident involving Langers looked a bit premeditated to me..

Carlton are biggest threat as far as tripping and pushing (Silvagni and their FB goes) and greasing to gullible Umpires (Cripps Silvagni and both forwards goes). The rest are just peripherals.

Weideman in. Brownie to have a rest. Brayshaw maybe out sore too.

They played bloody hard for their coach yesterday. We copped a bit of backwash from this topic in my OP..

Rabbits all threeHuddo Moonand dunny

They like to hate.

Lovely to see all those Carlton supporters still alive and hear the best booers in the comp.Thirty odd extra free kicks and they're still at it. Why can't we get umpires like that.Is it patented brown paper bags or just the way they address the Umpires."please sir, can I have some more"

Personally I don't think that we should be in any way led down this path, because this is a no return if we let the media push this button to suit themselves.I see us as a team that is having an exceptional run of wins and that's all.We haven't done anything other than win regularly. No doubt discuss but everything should be objective.

Yes it is called loyalty, and I think it's "the way"

I don't care about most umpires but I care a bloody sight less about the way the game we love is being manipulated by quite a few officials who seem intent on not having status quo for all clubs at all times Things like Hird heading for a traineeship under a previous confidant without as much as a murmer. Another bloke who has done a terrible job in a Tribunal position of great responsibility without any public accountability and tenure time. Just one other bug bear about who decides Friday night games prime time..

I am only thinking of specific animosity in regard to two clubs Brisbane and Carlton and as such I reckon that % and wins are how we drive them into exhaustion for the rest of the season.Build up our % to such an extent that for them to make up the ladder position further they have to win by more at the business end and they will be stuffed.Right where we want them.
