They played with a lot more spirit and structure than we did earlier in the season, so I think that keeps Simmo safe. The list management isn’t wholly his problem

I haven't mentioned Simpson and may not have read previous posts that put him at the centre of the conversation. They would be mad to get rid of him and don't think they will (although they may let him go if someone comes after him). Experienced, proven coaches have high value. He does get better structure for sure.

Much more negatives than positives for the cats this game. Outside of the second quarter, Geelong have actually been pathetic.

88 points and counting against an injury ravaged wce, that's just putrid

Yeah, an 80+ point win, but they are struggling. Fitness and finesse both look a bit off.

is so good to watch as a key defender, just gives absolutely nothing while being so so clean

 

[Retzlaff]

That GWS full forward looks promising. I think he’s a Perth boy?

Wow wtf, Gill just announced in the Saints Pies pre match that Gather Round will be in Adelaide for the next three seasons, wtaf? I thought the point was to share it around!

An extra home game for Port and Crows for the next four seasons. Everything has its price...

Give us an extra home game then Gil. You’d get more money hosting gws or gc here thank you would at their home grounds.

I don't mind it being in SA. A good compromise in travel distance for most teams and fans. And SA needs some love. Not much else going for it.

 

[royale with cheese]

Good to see Collingwood penalised for not following the man on the mark rules. They bend that more than any team

 

[royale with cheese]

Saints looking pretty good

I don't mind it being in SA. I mind that the SA teams now have an extra home game which is a huge advantage for them.

Man if Stocker gets suspended for that tackle than I really don't know what the AFL want.

Looks like Elliot is concussed but I don't actually see anything Stocker did wrong.

 

[dexter_]

Very scrappy game

 

[Jeba]

I think the curtain raisers have been better games than the so called main events.

and go pies

 

[mike91]

Hahaha! Hogan

Oh, Jesse....

[ilikepotatoes]

Himmelberg is a free agent yeah?

He's gonna get paid well by somebody.

 

[Demons09]

Jessie with the game saving mark.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Jessie with the game saving mark.

And if his teammate didn't stand up he'd have the game losing miss.

Would be the perfect free agent for us but no way he comes over here(without offering ludicrous money)

I don't mind it being in SA either. They all seem to be having a jolly good time. What I mind is decisions being made about things, seemingly without consultation. AFL will make the decision and do their deals and just announce it. Same as with the free to air decision.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

McStay doing a finger tendon is bad news for Collingwood.

Tell you what if you were a state league ruck/forward your eyes would be lighting up with their injuries at the moment.
