Autopsy Roast & Toast vs Essendon & Changes for R11 vs Sydney

[Groupie_]

That was a tough watch.
Can’t see myself making the trek for our next two homes games on a Thursday night.
I said just before half time to the guys I went with that I wouldn’t complain of we all went home.
footy is almost dead.
70,000 is a clear indication that people are voting with their feet. That fixture should get 80,000 without even trying.
loved:
tarrant on Wright. Smashed him.
baker - just makes things happen
D. Rioli- I was wrong
prestia - the most underrated midfielder in the competition
The pregame - more entertaining the onfield action
Bolton - is there a better indigenous player in the comp right now?
riewoldt - moving so much better the last month
nank - the most underrated ruckman in the comp
Ross - still don’t think very highly of him, but credit where it is due. He was good.
heavy beer in glass while watching behind glass

hated:
umpiring
our inability to put vastly inferior opposition away for three weeks in a row now
every ******* year the only games there is trouble in the crowd is against Essendon. What is it with them?
trains and buses on the geelong line. Disgrace.
The game in general. I have never had so little interest in the game as a whole.
umpiring

what happened with the druggies fans

Fights everywhere on level one in the second half

they looked to be sitting in rfc membership areas

 

[tugga]

tarrant in our best 6 tonight......... dare i say it a very "dave astbury" performance
perfect mix of stop a giant, intercept marking, nice distribution, organise defence and a bit of dash when required.

At the game you could see his organisation of the backline. Just another general there to go with grimes and Vlastuin.

 

[tugga]

Yep, that was the problem.

 

[Groupie_]

Yep, that was the problem.

think dreamtime has different arrangement for reserved seating

the areas we usually have as the home team are mixed

yet the home team for anzac day gets huge allocation

Comparing our seasons how has Sydney even stayed in the 8 all year and been considered a Top 4 side? got a bit of flattrack bully about them if you ask me.

In the presser Hardwick said he will look to VFL for a key forward, but I can't see Ryan being selected.

Does Graham immediatley replace Ross or does he hold his spot?

 

[peterand]

My eyes aren't the greatest and find the white on yellow sash so hard to read sometimes. I keep confusing short 15 and Aarts 16 lol.

How can u confuse these two
One Short gets the ball the other Aarts hardly ever touches the ball falls over or is chasing his opponent cause he’s too slow

 

[STRUGGLETOWN EST1885]

Would love to see Pickett line up against Parker next week. Both as hard as a cats head and would no doubt respect one another. And I must say, how durable has Chaos King been for us. Can hardly recall a game George has missed to injury. Say what you like but theres a reason Dimma picks him.

 

[Siberian Taiga]

A week ago The Squiggle had the club at 8th. This update from them below seems far more likely, unless the umpires are set on 9th.

 

[Tigerbob68]

If the technology can't block out a 70k crowd it's only going to be reliable when minnows are playing.

Imagine if it was Bachar's goal in the '17 GF that they had to check!!

Basically the same as us lol both only punching downwards. Should be a good game.

No I think right now going off season form we're where we should be and beaten everyone around us, Sydney on the other hand have been highly overrated.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

how come no campaigner can tackle maurice junior ?

Was a great debut.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

need to play lambo 3 times and then a week off, sneaky feelin he is back straight after the bye.

Week by week proposition I think.
Anymore games from lambo will be a bonus I feel.

 

[Roksman]

If you think these brawls aren't linked with fan disillusionment / confusion about the rules, then you're kidding yourself.

**Not condoning violence - but it never took much to get fans feral - this is the perfect storm.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Breaking: They’ve turned Hobbs life support off. Vale.

Grimes is a monster

Brought the excavator too extract Hobbs out of the turf.

 

[joelsyt]

Anyone know why the replay isn’t on fox footy yet? Or are even they offended by the umpiring last night that they’re too embarrassed to put up the replay?

 

[Vassp]

IF THE AFL WANT TO CLEAN UP THE GAME HOW ABOUT THEY START WITH THR RULES !

 

[CASEYS9420]

Anyone in the media mention that Bummers only scored 1 more point better than last week?

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

imagine what the umps would do to us if we made a granny again

If?

Drugs cheat fans are fairly warped regardless of the rules

 

[This Is Anfield]

Was a great debut.

His debut next week will be even better

Yep.Daughter said there were a few.
