I take your word for it. I was at the Sydney v Geelong granny and it was a diff story.

don't make it sound as if I have the opinion of those people. of course the noise of affirmation exists when an interstate team plays a Victorian team at the mcg. So not sure why you're making it sound like I said that there isn't. there is. yes everytime the Eagles play at the mcg it's a...

I don't agree. Yes, they may be victorian but they sure as hell didn't go for the team that's playing. I went to Syd v Geelong GF and Sydney had just as much crowd support as Geelong. (they just had nothing to cheer about). but why are we talking about 1 game a year that most of us never get to...

Lol, of course we were. It's embarassing if you can't watch the game with a neutral eye to admit that they didn't screw the dees over. I literally showed 6 examples that resulted in a 6 goal differential with basic missed calls/calls. So even without Petracca and the most 22 and Unders in the...

When is the last time West Coast made a grand final and was disadvantaged by playing at the mcg? The grand final has neutral supporters anyway so it's less of a disadvantage. The dees won our 2021 granny during the covid year and we didn't get to play once at the mcg. So I don't think it's too...

huh? Rayner literally ran away from the ball the entire night. it was the equivalent of Mason Cox trash talking. total cringe when it's a fringe player talking trash for marking over a rookie and then having 7 touches over the next 2 hours. Rayner will be out of the competition in a few years.

there's a reason why Berry is still a tagger and never the one being tagged.

On the couch:Regarding Cam Rayner "don't act like a tough guy. You take a mark, all good well done, but then act like a tough guy but only to be unsighted for the rest of the night, not a good look". He had 8 touches. lol. Showing a highlight shows that you really have lost the plot. The guy is...

melbourne has had 1 good father/son in 30 years which is significantly less than the majority of clubs. Regarding Mac Andrew, he was in our academy, but the afl changed the rules after they gifted the dogs Ugle-hagan. Yes, you don't travel as much but every home game you get you get a massive...

I already did. keep up:)

my team is trash. I still have Reville and Dowling on field. Do I go Reville up to W.Ashcroft/Durham and have only Dowling on field. OR Sexton to anyone I want like Dunkley/Walsh/Whitfield and keep Reville and Dowling on field.

Mac Andrew would've been great next to May and Lever. Damn the afl is so far from an even playing field it ain't funny.

I think Daicos has improved but he still squibs contests and we saw many instances of that earlier on in the year that went viral in the footy world. He's an absolute gun don't get me wrong. It's just a rare weakness in his game and that's fine.

Cool. so basically you only think that it's a sore loser when it doesn't apply to Brisbane. You may hate how I share my opinion but we share exactly the same opinion.

Do you really expect fans not to be 'sore losers' after poor umpiring? Like, what world do you live in? Tell that to Essendon fans, tell that to Adelaide when they disallowed a clear goal which kicked them out of the finals. It's totally reasonable to blame the umpires. They have a massive...

can't believe we lost to this basket case of a club. But as soon as we did, I knew the season was over. good teams don't lose to west coast

Both are guns. But I'm taking Harley Reid over Daicos. I want a guy that puts his head over the footy. And don't spit me 'contested possession' numbers. That isn't a hard ball.

well maybe, like Rayner, you can give me 7 years of trash umpiring and still think I'm good because I umpire well once a season. And I'll make sure I umpire the worst on grand final day, just like Rayner.

Umpiring is the biggest issue with today's game. And I've said this for years. They are a 6-8 goal factor in most games. I've been consistent on this for 5 years on this board. Even when we won the flag versus the dogs I knew that half the battle was going to be the umpires not getting sucked...

10 time Brownlow medallist? Can you show me where I've ever said that. I'll await your reply.

I need to see it on video. A still shot doesn't show anything. I showed a video of Lohman throwing it. Happy to call Oliver's a throw once I see it.

I know holding the ball when I see it though. And I wouldn't get sucked into the noise of affirmation. So already I'm better than Stevic.

what's the difference between that and players yelling at other players on the field? ... Yes umpiring is hard but I can do a better job myself.

it's fine. Especially knowing that it will likely swing future decisions. That's how bad the umpires are. They get swung so easily by the crowd etc. They say an umpire will never change their decision. Well that's true, but it can affect future decisions. Unfortunately that's the standard of...

wasn't 2015 when Carlton won the wooden spoon?

lol. and still runs faster than plodder Cripps. your inability to look at their total career is nothing short of embarassing. And that's why you yourself said you preferred Oliver. You said that. You were fed up with Cripps being bad. You were fed up with his plodding and inability at impacting...

why not? you asked me. I told you which years. Why are you focussing on this year and not the total careers. Oliver has reached the pinnacle. if Cripps is good enough, he'll win the coaches award twice. He still has time. But it's unlikely.

2015, 2017, 2020, 2021, 2023 and to be honest his 2022 year was actually damn average despite the Brownlow (excellent at the start, then poor for 8-10 weeks)

lol Brownlow. He has been better this year than his Brownlow year. But honestly, anyone who values the midfielders medal is a pretty basic person. So flawed. You just have to look at the previous winners. Neale, Prides, Wines etc.

lol. a guy that never gets tagged :) Cripps has had about 5 seasons equivalent to Olivers current season. 5. Many years of plodding with multiple excuses offered such as sore back and having to ruck 3 ruck contests a game. Oliver comfortably. We all remember the Cripps game against...
