Nah I'm just listening to it.

Ok.

So when you comment on stuff, like Kingsley getting an 'undeserved' free etc. it's simply the opinion of the radio commentators?

I can't see or hear the game so just want to clarify.
 
Couple of things-

Matthew Lloyd. Wasn't it funny when he ran the length of the field to chase Scarlett, got the ball somehow and then kicked it straight to Scarlo? Defence is not the place for Lloydy. Sure he fought hard but the back line is uncharted territory and you could tell he was in over his head. He's more comfortable staying inside F50 and doing his bit to destroy what's left of the Telstra Dome grass cover.

Goldspink. Put him in a Bombers guernsey. Fair dinkum. Only two free-kick goals to Kingsley (both blatantly obvious) is giving these umpires the slightest veneer of impartiality.

Brad Ottens. Excellent mark in defense and good ruckwork. Doesn't seem as though the OP is bothering him too much, just a little.

Even Sam?

Sam tends to be anti-Geelong, if anything, when he does special comments.

He'd be the last person to ever be biased in his comments.

I'm looking forward to seeing Kingsleys first free. One person said it wasn't there, another said it was blatant.
 
Rodio, where are you seeing this live that you are able to post as well???

Or are you just looking for simple excuses as to why your finals bound team isn't destroying us.

Finally Lloyd may be better suited to the forward line but I'd rather hin case down to the oppositions forward line than stay back and watch his man get possesions like a lot of other lazy forwards in the league.
 
That was a very courageous mark from Ottens, followed up by a great 60 metre run from Tenace (including 6 bounces).

BTW Going off the tv, so obviously well delayed.

fair enough, I haven't seen it yet either so I guess I can't really comment too much.
to be continued at a later stage...
;)

He does have a good record against Essendon, but at the same time he's having a career year.

49 goals now, including 9 in the last two weeks.

I'm listening to it on the radio. Crook as a dog. I won't weary you with descriptions of the disturbances to my lower strata. I'm still typing OK but.

Huh?

Don't get so touchy. I'm not having a go at Lloyd exactly. He had an honest dip and it turned out bad for him. It was a funny situation, that's all.
