The Port Adelaide board is completely feral, like the worst aspects of humanity kind of bad all in one place - its awesome

The city of churches

So a forward chops the arms of a defender trying to touch a goal bound ball, isn’t that a free to the defender?

Minor rules 101, but surely the rules should be fair both ways

 

[peetoo]

It is some form of karma. The AFL allowed a blatant rort with the Bowes deal, to help their pet Cats. Then they immediately say they that sort of trade deal should not happen in future. Now the player Geelong drafted is struggling to live up to the hype. Delicious irony.

Can go in the the happy album with the two spuds they got with the junior Ablett compo

There's good reason why amongst fans of the other SANFL clubs that they are hated so much besides being a traditionally successful club. I think you now know why.

Real drop off in Melbourne crowd it seems. They should be the ones moved out to marvel

 

[grumbleguts]

Imagine Gawn and Naicos in the same team, the number of bullshit free kicks would be off the charts.

Norf reverting to type it feels so far this match. They have been bog average so far.

AFLs should have merged these two teams when they were both hot for it in 1996

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

When you head to the dome they don’t let anyone sit on the top level of the broadcast side so that it looks like the crowd is bigger, but I’ve never seen them do this at the MCG like they have tonight.

Not a single soul to be seen on the 4th level of the G. Looks empty.

 

[Cleavy]

and these rubbish teams get a Saturday night game, and we can't...

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

I posted after our loss to Port that they should be more worried than us. Reckon this is the year some real talent could be squeezed out.

Edit: We do love a good Port player too.

Burton will be on offer again.

Jason Bennett is such a breath of fresh air.

goal was just exactly what it needed to be.

North huff and puff a lot, but they have no system whatsoever...

Melbourne looking like a bottom 4 side too.

They look VFL standard.

They do it all the time for Melbourne home games. The other games they can't close because the teams have reserved seats taking up the lower bays (Melbourne dont)

 

[I got the outside word]

Burton will be on offer again.

Burton and a first round for Chad.

 

[barbster]

Melbourne looking like a bottom 4 side too.

And yet we were smashed by them

 

[KermitJagger]

If Wardlaw's hamstrings can hold together he's gonna be some sort of player. That said, North have gaps everywhere and Melbourne are playing like a side that have given up on the season. Clayton Oliver

is a shadow of a shadow.

In round 2 you misery guts. Sydney were beaten by Richmond more recently than that.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Both sides completely different to now.

 

[peetoo]

Both sides completely different to now.

I’d back us now. Petracca and Lewis out seems about even

Sydney lost to Richmond by 55 points?? I must have missed that one

 

[barbster]

Both sides completely different to now.

True, but they do have the wood over us. Can’t remember when we last beat them.
