The Blues are coming

They were never as bad as results suggested.

 

[Northernsoul74]

Pretty impressive win from GWS.

Adelaide at home has been as dominant as anyone except probably Collingwood this year.

Didn’t give them much chance, especially when Tom Green went out. They’ve got a lot of heart, had quite a few upset wins this year.

Amazing what a change of coach can do especially when it’s an old school coach who has been there too long.

Apart from Geelong, the fight for the bottom half of the 8 is genuinely a Bradbury type situation, a 'which rubbish team can be the least rubbish'.

 

[Next Waiting]

If the stadium was finished and we ended up in an away final against Geelong I'm sure there would be a massive push to play it at GMHBA.

Meanwhile if we were 5th and Geelong 8th I'm almost certain we'd be forced to play it at the MCG and be told to just shut up and accept it.

Don't get the problem with playing at the G. I want us to play there a lot more than we do.

to be honest I would rather play the cats in a final at the MCG then marvel

Wingard is an absolute disgrace. Dodged a massive bullet there. Even when he can be arsed playing he butchers the ball half the time, including two terrible misses today.

He has been a such a disappointing recruit for the Hawks. Just seems happy picking up a paycheck.

Fair to say that our list management team know a hell of a lot more than those who were suggesting we throw the sink at him to give the appearance we are serious people/make a statement to whothefcukever.

Don’t know about that. We were certainly interested in him. I think we tried hard to get him but he picked the Hawks.

I don't mind playing at the MCG. In fact, as an MCC member, I love it. I just hate that we are given no more than 2 games per year there and then forced to play finals at the venue. It's never a home venue during the H&A season so why should it be during finals time?

Meanwhile, Geelong make that argument that they should play home finals in Geelong, at the same time as playing multiple home games during the regular season.

It's the inconsistency that annoys me.

 

[doggies ftw]

I don’t necessarily disagree with Rampe getting off, if McNeils concussed from the incident I have no doubt he probably did get him high and deserves the suspension, but luckily for him there’s just not good enough footage to really drill him for it.

But **** me, “unavoidable & accidental contact” you’ve got to be flipping kidding me, it’s 50m off the ball and clear that he v lines straight at him. There was nothing unavoidable or accidental about that collision.

He lined him up and he was blindsided. Absolute bollocks.

I don’t really get the reasoning either.

We’ve got situations like Mansell getting three weeks when he was sprinting for the ball and Aish reaches it 0.1 seconds before him and it was supposedly avoidable and he should’ve accounted for it but this one nowhere near the play was unavoidable.

**** that is absolute bullshit

 

[Nat Fyfe]

Brayshaw is probably the only one I think didn’t deserve any penalty, so can’t argue there. This Rampe one is disgraceful

 

[Next Waiting]

(L) Jones' assassin got away with too, didn't he?

Are we a sub category of participant?

 

[Next Waiting]

It seems like an extraordinary decision (Rampe/McNeil). I may be mistaken, but weren't both Rampe's feet off the ground when he hit/bumped McNeil in the head (resulting in concussion) and the ball was not even remotely in the vicinity. Surely there is an appeal.

 

[dogwatch]

He lined him up and he was blindsided. Absolute bollocks.

What a farce the AFL's judicial system has become. Needs a complete overhaul.

And that's before we start looking at the breathtaking inconsistency in its supposed concern for head injuries.

 

[weltschmerz]

Plus Pickett only getting two weeks for that bump on Baz.

 

[Libbaaaa]

Plus Pickett only getting two weeks for that bump on Baz.

The worst of the lot.

 

[Fossie 32]

How did it work out he was cleared to play if it said he was given a 2 week penalty, did they appeal?

Been a big week for Entitlement.

Free kicks 22 - 13 Swans way.

Rampe gets off.

What next - the return of COLA?

Yes

Just quietly Jake, I don't think you have an alternative option…..

has gained plenty of perspective since he joined the Bombers from the Bulldogs, and the livewire says its part of the reason he wants to be a Bomber forever.
