Ross will still put everyone behind the ball even though they're 3 goals behind.

Having gone to it this year I’m happy if it sticks in Adelaide for a few years. But I’m in my early 30s, don’t have kids and have the financial resources to make a long weekend of it with mates, so appreciate that people would have liked it spread around.
There was a genuinely great vibe to the whole thing and had lots of good chats with complete random footy fans at the pub who’d all flown in for the weekend. Mt Barker was a surprisingly decent venue and they probably got as many as they would if norf hosted us in Tassie.
Would say as well that all that was good about it was achieved more by accident than design as the AFL will always prioritise the $
Or if (hypothetically) they were 6 goals up
Browny’s constant use of “Saint” Kilda is infuriating.

They've had a fortunate draw in rounds 1 - 4, the only in form team they've beaten this year is Essendon. Bulldogs, Freo & Gold Coast have all been dissapointing and regressed so far this season.
I can not remember who it was but one of our players did a classic tap on against the Kangaroos and was penalised for a throw... I reckon I have seen half a dozen other tap ons let go over the weekend, as they should have been BTW.

God that was a boring and low skill game.
Yeah i get that but some of the teams they have really smashed. Just was not impressive at all
As I commented in the game day thread, those dinky tap ons. are a dime a dozen
Collingwood and Richmond do it regularly and I can't remember the last time they have been pinged for it.
.....and don't even talk to me about the Throwdogs

what kind of puns will Kellie be able to tastefully scatter through her commentary then!?
Isn't Nerang noted for that?

Moonshine is a cultural delicacy and I’d appreciate people not mocking the suburb for something they don’t understand.
BRABETTE is a cyber bully. Avoid
The AFL is so reactionary.
They haven't paid a throw for about 5 years but after that little vid of 3 Essendon throws in 2 seconds went a bit viral last week everything that looked like a throw got paid . They still missed all the ones that get flipped straight out of the centre stoppage but in general play if your hand was free and the ball came out it got paid. The one in our game where it was palmed like a hit out was ridiculous.
Can't say I blame the umps. They get given all these secret policy changes that no one else knows about , how would anyone who's been an umpire of recent years have any idea what was a throw and what wasn't ?

Yep. I've appreciated his work for some time. He plays well at both ends of the field, a definite asset to any team. I'd love to have him at Brisbane.

Based on how its officiated I have always thought our players don't do it enough.
