Gonna be tough when cases near 100 tomorrow

Just a ridiculous game. Don't give your opponents a 44 point head start next time. What a win.

It's not going to affect the result but these umpires are [censored] cooked.

No-one

I don't think someone drafted mid-year as a rookie is going to get a call up at this stage of the season. Just saying.

Do we lose from here? Feels like it.

Pray for no injuries.

Current result stands at time of stoppage if after half time They don't wind it back

Why is Weid in an improvised sling?

Wouldn't it be chartered? They'd hold the plane surely.

Watch us get stitched up by Zeus himself

Sure, that happened. Then he was a part of it and stuck the point of his elbow into someone's neck for 5 seconds. Come off the 'he started it' argument.

Oxygen flows through blood. Trachea has nothing to do with it. People go unconscious in headlocks due to a lack of blood supply. Same issue that people are arguing here. Personally I think 5 seconds, not a huge issue. But still not a great look. If it was 1-2 seconds I doubt it'd even be looked at. I'd expect a week for the optics and to serve as a warning for the rest of the comp.

Port haven't beaten a side in the 8 and they sure looked like it tonight. Challenged us once to get within 10 points but we responded appropriately after that. After the last month that's a very handy win away from home.

SIren. 1 point loss, first defeat for Casey this year. Not a good weekend for the Demons.

Thinking he only played 1/2 a game considering this

https://www.afl.com.au/matches/3645#player-stats Not really

I don't think Jones would replace Spargo in his overall role however I do think he's quite good with ball in hand inside 50. Either hitting targets or scoring.

This is probably the go if Lingers is out Nibs the only one who can match his coverage of the ground

I agree there's not much in it, but at the same time you don't need to put your knee into someone's chest after you throw them off your teammate. It just incites more niggle.

Genuinely baffled McKay didn't get a week or at least fine for that. It was the definition of a sling tackle, Hunt was lucky to avoid injury. The difference in optics between the McKay tackle and the Lycett tackle last week is not that great... So when I saw it at the ground I thought McKay had driven his head into the ground. Replay shows absolutely nothing in it. https://streamable.com/gwnmsp

Was sticking up for Kossie at the time but it was silly. Clip here, hard to see due to the terrible transition timing. https://streamable.com/gm0cmb

Did Bowey get injured yesterday? On crutches.

I'm assuming there's still a bye round(s) at some point this year?

Petty looked nervous early but never stopped competing. I expect with a good run of games he'll settle in well. Harmes also showed why he belongs in the middle. Did a mountain of work, he breaks tackles with ease.
