No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club news

Hmm
Perhaps 4 field umpires, 4 boundary umpires and 2 goal umpires is t enough

 

[grumbleguts]

Dogs supporters would be as frustrated as we were last week with the frees that the umps have both missed for their side and given for the Cats.

Which is strange for them. Since Leigh Montagna's bit on their throws came out, their free kick count has normalised somewhat. The handbaggers however...

The deviation here is so clear.

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

I know I keep going on about Harley Reid but he is a perfect example of how having a strong and thick core is such an advantage as a player. Jai, Dusty, Trac, Bont. Just to be able to stand up in a tackle and be unfazed.

 

[SSSSSS]

Just been. I’m telling you, Geelong will get sliced up by a GWS or Melbourne, easy.

How’s Close diving his head into a WB player for a high free like he did to Scrim last week.

They remind me of our 2018 era Hawks. Very rarely were we ever convincing in any of our wins apart from a few smashings. We were reliant on too few and I think Geelong has a better spread of talent at least but they do not look like a 4-0 team.

I don’t think field play should be reviewed but this miss is embarrassing. Exceeded only by the AFL’s attempt to argue as legit the dissent free goal to determine the match’s result.

The miss touch is forgivable. The dissent call is not. The attempt to justify it by the AFL utterly condemning.

Jed Walter is looking good on debut

How would you know which kids will be elite or not though?

You didn’t even know what kind of player Sam Taylor was yesterday.

The stream of posts from you wanting more kids, but then declaring that none of our current ones are going be elite is just a dog chasing its tail.

Sorry I looked up on the net what type of Player type Taylor was and it said intercepting defender that why I asked the question.

Debuted last week but looks extemely talented

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Battle of the high end draft picks between GWS and GCS.
One can only drool (and sigh a little inwardly), at the talent on show here. Dimma must be licking his lips at the Suns.

 

[grumbleguts]

No the irony is an umpire involved in a Brownlow betting scandal would think Geelong would be glad to see the back of a player abusing umpires. It is literally their entire schtick.

 

[SSSSSS]

Mac Andrew looking dominant out there.

Yes. Insane 24 disposals 16 of them intercepts.

Geez that's petty from the umpire there.
I'm all for standing up for yourself and not putting up with crap - but he's taken the low road with that comment.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

That was a sensational piece of play from GWS

I always say that one should never let a little bigotry get in the way of a good punch line. In a 7-0 decision dismissing the conviction in Pell’s favour, the High Court stated:

…there was… “a significant possibility that an innocent person has been convicted because the evidence did not establish guilt to the requisite standard of proof".

But then how can there be evidence of a kiddie fiddler several years after the fact(s). Of course there's no evidence.

They have been so poor.

This very conversation just took place at our place. They must have the patience of a saint

He's guilty as sin.

I'm not religious, but I hope to any diety that there is a hell that he is burning in for all eternity.

Pls keep this to the footy people. The Pell thing is a rabbit hole and a circular argument for other boards.
And yes, poor st kilda, would hate to be a fan. No flags in my lifetime if I was a saints supporter!
We have been so fortunate us hawks supporters. Let’s not forget that.
