Hahahaha what an absolute dick head Allen is.

 

[The 747]

Second half or do the ironing?

hmmmm

I might go do some weeding in the dark

 

[bzparkes]

What an odd thing to be proud of and bring attention to

Not all of us can afford to go up to the snow every year and watch our team from the comfort of a ski chalet.

 

[NonPhixion]

terrible game. Hocking with the hit and run job

 

[kane249]

Second half or do the ironing?

hmmmm

Ironing, you might not see another goal in this game going off the first half

 

[Freoforever86]

If north don’t fix their structure theyll Struggle. Need to hold a few numbers back for the release kicks. Force it out of bounds rather than easy eagle rebounds. Need to be man on man in this weather

 

[trentjac]

Monday night and pissing down would affect the crowd I imagine.

Nah too many supporters in their room typing their ass off on big footy while mum and dad are watching the news.

 

[masai]

Lol, why's Sheed complaining after that godawful kick to Petch just before?

By the by, players need to stop complaining ( flapping gums & arms at umps + their teammates ). Concentrate on winning the next ball.

Bad by both sides.

 

[beetz]

Enjoying North standing up to the take tough guy crap being dished up by WC.

 

[Outtatym]

The Eagles are playing the best faux tough guy game I've seen for a while.

So, so tough.

2 weeks of beltings and can't kick clear of the bottom side- frustration is showing

 

[Call Me Cake]

Eagles do not even deserve finals.

 

[Scotland]

Well at least no one will be accusing us of flat tracking this one.

 

[Chaisa]

Conditions hasn't helped but man is this game a bludger.

 

[Scotland]

Enjoying North standing up to the take tough guy crap being dished up by WC.

Yes. Not like North are instigating anything at all.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Well at least no one will be accusing us of flat tracking this one.

Teams are flat tracking you.

 

[Cotchins Hair Piece]

What did Thomas do to WC? Most unassuming bloke to go after

Exactly.

 

[Brunswick Trap King]

Conditions hasn't helped but man is this game a bludger.

Doesn't help with North players trying to act hard after fair bumps.

Are you saying Dean Margetts didn’t get banned from umpiring Eagles games over there (being the only umpire in afl history to ever had that ban applied to them) and his ongoing bias is all just an interstate conspiracy?

As I recall all WA umps were banned from umpiring our games, but I could be wrong.
If enough unhinged ppl think there is a conspiracy because Margetts performed the circumcision at Ben Cousin's son's bris or whatever nutty theory gets spouted next I am 100% for him not umpiring our games, would rather it.
I'm probably more passionate that supporters, board members, ex-players etc shouldnt be commentating on their own team and helping control MRP narratives etc but really it all belongs on the same pile of AFL incompetence.

Eagles and their fans are the Virat Kohli’s of the football world: expect every decision to go their way and incredulous when they don’t

Yeah like they're not there to support their own team and become the 23rd player. You should wish your own supporters would provide just as hostile an environment.
If you want to talk about one-eyed I suggest you steer clear of soccer, NFL and rugby and stick to tennis where you can applaud a good rally between both players even if your own player loses the point.

 

[Liam Boy]

the umpiring has been pretty fair in this one, you can tell because the eagles' crowd boo every decision or situation where there could conceivably be a decision and it doesn't go their way

 

[DanWA]

After seeing the replay again, double the fine for Thomas

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

terrible game. Hocking with the hit and run job

Yep Hocking made it rain. My god people are dumb.

There has been some shockers both ways

Kennedys one at the start was a joke

The umpires falling for the North flopping is annoying though, especially the Ziebel ones

it's not flopping if you're taken high dude

 

[Mesc]

Wow Look at West Coast get around each other Wooohoooo Theyre beating a rebuilding team by a massive 8 points at half time !!! Cmon North !

 

[DanWA]

Flopping to be taking high should not be rewarded with a free

It is also highly dangerous to the player flopping for the free
