[Wosh]

Liked - Some really interesting games and upsets
Learnt - The MRO is still as big a mess as ever
Hated - The pain and anger caused by racist words and actions. Simply no excuses.​

Post yours...

 

[WilloTree]

Liked: Suns finding a way to win after the belting last week. Good response.
Learned: The MRO cherry-pick what they see. Berry very lucky.
Hated: There is no plan to help the umpires improve. Everyone seems to have just accepted that this is the level we've got and will have in the future.

 

[Leeda]

Hated essenshit being lauded for a seven goal reap…they pay people to keep them in the news…

[Madas]

Liked : Gold Coast looking decent and Melbourne with a genuine crack after 57 years
Learned : The MRO system is a complete joke
Hated : Selwood being cleared for a head high strike . Disgusted.

 

[wcegls]

Learnt: Melbourne are the worst first placed team in over a decade

Your salty tears make me happy

 

[JackFlash]

Liked: Nothing

Learnt: Nobody wants to win it this year? Geelong are not good enough and collapse is imminent, wouldn't surprise me if they lost the last two games and finished 5th!

Hated: Another week with no crowds, the pathetic display by the egomaniacs down at the Cattery and Adelaide getting pipped by the team with no name.

 

[HairyO]

Liked - putting Collingwood in their place after last week they thought they were on the improve
Learnt - the AFL literally doesnt give a shit at all about consistency with the MRO. We know its always been terrible, but this weekend the decisions were just plain disgusting
Hated - only 2 more games with Clarko at the helm

Lol no salt, just waiting to see you fail in finals again

 

[pazza]

Liked - The upset wins and great efforts in losing matches too of North Melbourne and Adelaide. Fantastic to see.

Learned - Just how confusing the lightning rule is. Last night was almost farcical.

Hated - Josh Bruce

[rado]

Liked - the race for teams making the finals is keeping up interest during LD6
Learnt - the MRO is totally useless and needs a complete revamp.
Hated - the continued one sided home state umpiring bias, the WC v Melb umpiring bias was next level.

Oh, totally agree. And I think West Coast is the worst 7th placed team in maybe 27 years. Perhaps 28.

And I’m sure everyone remembers the 07th placed team this time of year for the last 27 or 28 years

I learnt that there’s a nationwide salt shortage due to excessive hoarding by Western Australia. I also learnt that Selwood is yet again a sooky faux thug who should have been suspended.

He's actually a real thug, who is 'scrutinized' by a faux Match Review Officer.

So how come basically everyone in Australia thinks he’s guilty other than the MRO ?
Did I hear correctly today that he has been charged 14 times and only ever served a one week suspension?

not sure if you heard correctly, but that’s not right. He’s been suspended for at least 6 weeks that I can think of, over three separate incidents including a 4 week suspension.

But either way, he deserved weeks for what he did to Taylor.
