Genius

 

[Werewolf]

Can recommend a read through the Geelong board gameday thread of that 3rd quarter shellacking.

I presume the Collingwood board gameday thread is even more entertaining!!

Selwood has lost his awareness. Looks cooked. Tough as old boots still.

And the media will go on and on and on

This is a much improved round three performance by Norf compared to last year.

Lucky tip of Adelaide negated by the Pies losing

David King talking about Cripps hitting the scoreboard as a midfielder…

…these types of player”

I honestly don’t get how Stringer still has a scrap of reputation left. One fabulous season 7 years ago. How the hell do you mention him as someone Patrick Cripps

David King though...

#Freekick Carltank

I'm nowhere near ready for Carlton being a good team again.

 

[CarnTheScray]

I'm nowhere near ready for Carlton being a good team again.

They were gonna come good sooner or later. No club gets 15 years of top draft picks and remains shit (except maybe Gold Coast).

 

[maddog37]

Not sure they can sustain the intensity for a season.

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

Another great game of footy this.

 

[Chicago1]

Richmond first two goals. Crap.

 

[Sentinel]

Jiath is great to watch

 

[NBates]

This post will get lost in this tight game on now, but afterwards can anyone tell me how the AFL can justify having GWS in the league? (GC too for that matter). Attendance is less than AFLW. Would TV rights/adverts etc actually make up for this tarnish on the look of the game?

 

[Doggy]

Carltank are lucky... again

It has been a good round, hasn't it, mate? A lot of really good, close games of footy.

Most of those at the Plastics game yesterday would've been Easter show worker setting up for the show next week who they'd let in for free during their breaks to make it look like people were interested in the game.

Who's calling the game with BT and Lingy today?

Whoever it is, he has exactly the same cadence of somebody calling race 5 at Randwick.

Its just weird.

I thought exactly the same! It’s kind of nice to hear a new voice…but he sounds like he belongs somewhere else.

To be honest. Im not sure how I feel about it other than it really jarring to my ear.

The thing about it is the complete absence of idiotic histrionics and tonal shifts that we we are typically subjected to.

This guy calls with exactly the same mid-tempo, even tone that one expects from a race caller accustomed to commentating one out for extended periods.
