We did perhaps get a bit lucky but we’ve also been on the ass-end of some horrific late umpiring decisions. It’s all swings and roundabouts. Speaking of swings and round abouts the umpires missed an even more egregious 50 with 7:25 left in the third. It would have been an easy Bobby hill goal...

I can’t believe I’m cheering for you guys :sweatsmile: let’s goooo

I’m no fan of Port but I’m logging in to Bigfooty for the first time in 5 months to chime in here and say wtf is this umpiring. In the last 2 minutes: -Oliver throws ball, not called. Then Butters gets called for the same thing 2 seconds later. Ball goes down to fwd line and goal. -that...

Is not so much a meltdown as it is an observation of a silly comment. Imagine thinking you are better than the premier when you haven’t won a final in over two years. No wonder you haven’t.

As much as I’d like Schultz I don’t want to cave to Freo’s demands. The price is starting to seem too high IMO.

I know nothing about MCC but on my way to open training this morning I saw about 10 people in line with swags and stuff already.

Would anyone with 1 x standing room ticket be interested in swapping + paying the difference for 1 x seat? DM me if you are.

I was at a Collingwood panel show a few months ago and Steele was asked who he thought an underrated player was that could contribute more than expected.. His answer was Frampton because he has that mongrel in him. Let’s hope he is right!!

For anyone in the secondary ticket market please be careful. I have spotted 3 obvious scams already - some a little more sophisticated than others. Don’t be afraid to ask questions about the tickets, if they are legit they shouldn’t mind. Be critical and pay attention to all the details if they...

:tearsofjoy: Poor wording…I’m running on empty this morning, didn’t get wink of sleep with the neighbours dog barking all night.

I hope everyone gets the tickets they wanted and this legends business is sorted out! I am in the market for 2 x tickets and will be trawling threads all week trying to surprise my dad. Absolutely a long shot but if anyone comes across any I’d be happy to meet wherever to sort out an exchange.

I am yeah been there many a time in my late teens. I legit didn't want to start something I just wouldn't call it down to earth, makes it sound like a harmless country pub which it certainly isn't after the dinner tables are put away. I'm resigned to the fact Beams is leaving and at this stage...

I honestly don't care what happens with Beams from here, but I had to interject. You either have absolutely no idea and are just guessing because it helps your argument or you are a bogan of the tallest order. The Harp is a hole. It's a pub for either local school students until they're 21 and...

I've said it before on here and I'll say it again. Carlton are an exciting team to watch when they're on. I love watching attractive footy get rewarded and thoroughly enjoyed watching you pick apart a negative North Melbourne team last night. They had every chance and just didn't take it on...

Gibbs is probably the best value player going around. If the 500k a year contract rings true it's baffling he stayed when Thomas came out of nowhere demanding 750k. I'd be pissed off it were me. Gibbs is worth twice as much as Dale Thomas. Very good re-signing for the Blues. Probably Carltons...

It's way too early. As of now they have recouped none. It's simple, if Sydney win at least one flag out of this deal then it's 100% worth it. If they don't it's a total failure no matter how close they get. The sheer size of the deal allows no middle ground for me and the fact they've bound...

I don't normally start threads, and I brought this up in another one but feel it deserved it's own thread. At the start of the last term we had our best ball winners, including Ball, Swan and Pendlebury, in the forward line while we left youngsters Adams and JT in the centre along with a...

Ball was great yesterday. Crap thread.

Would love to know why Pendles, Ball and Swan sat in the forward line while we put Adams, Caf and JT in the centre for the first 10-15 minutes of the last quarter. After a goal was scored we persisted with it for some unknown reason and it cost us the game. Awful.

West Coast would be better off if Selwood got his own ball. Hate watching him tag it's a waste of inside talent.

It's quite embarrassing watching the Eagles supporters whinging big time about the umpiring. Let it go, move on. Your team had every chance to put it away and yet again failed to do so.

413 from 4 including Tippett so I'm pretty happy with that start! New recruit Selwood (never owned him before) did OK thanks to junk time touches as mentioned above. Was is disarray at half time but brought it back. I had a shocking bye round week 1 but these last two have been a cakewalk...

This isn't a 'bump' issue and it's NOT a head clash issue so I think comparing it to Murphy and Hodge is wrong. This is the classic front on head contact that can paralyse people, like the incident that ended Carracellas (spelling?) career. Hanners is in trouble. 2 weeks IMO.

Mitch Duncan would be up there IMO. Very impressed with him. Not sure he's underrated just shadowed by heaps of team mates.

Malthouse. More to play with. Leppitch is currently dealing with a mass youth exodus at the end of last year which drastically reduces room for improvement. Brisbane have been gutted. They've got some guns but there's not a lot coming through. Throw in injuries and suspensions and he doesn't...

We had the exact same thread last year. He's allowed a slow start after wrist surgery, picking up the ball is quite obviously a struggle at the moment for him. His mannerisms make him look like he doesn't care but he clearly loves the club and probably moreso loves playing footy and winning. I...

Don't care what Daisy is feeling, no less than what any other Carlton player is feeling. Dale helped us win a premiership and he'll always be a champ to me. It's a shame to see him in his current state but he'll come good. I just hope Carlton do not.

Cloke opens White right up. As long as either of them kicks a few I don't care. All the focus for now is on Cloke, but now that White is on a bit of a roll the roles may reverse. The definition of a functioning forward line is kicking goals when your main man can't. Elliot and White getting...

The problem isn't the holding the ball rule, it's the dropping the ball rule. It doesn't exist anymore. Umpires are umpiring the game as if it's one and the same but it isn't. Holding the ball is always paid, throwing the ball is sometimes paid but when did dropping the ball get taken out of the...
