Perth discount. That's shocking.

He got twice as many frees as any other player, so he shouldn't grumble

 

[VineValerian]

How did Rowell not even get a free kick??

Eyes never on the ball for even a split second.
4 match suspension.

28.1k for the crows

Not bad.

Action Vs Outcome. Did Rowell get hurt ?
We know how the AFL works, id be surprised if its more than 1 and wouldn't be surprised at all if its Zero.

 

[edgie]

Fun fact.

Port is the only team this round without more than 1 multiple goal scorer.

Poo.

If we can get each player to get a goal, thats 22 goals, that will win more games than it loses

"Massive" according to 7 News

With the home sides travelling bog, the Adelaide and Perth games were always going to struggle. Only 25k in Sydney is a bit surprising given the last epic played between the local sides.

And it was played at the Olympic stadium rather than Spotless, so they must have been expecting a much bigger attendance. If they were expecting Sydney fans to go out there to possibly see Buddy's 1000th, they were deluding themselves.

Just as well they stacked it to make sure they were large crowds!

Awful stadium!

 

[Papa G]

Optus being 50% didn't help and I doubt they'd have expected to see the Crows crowd that bad.

lol AFL investigating the Danniher deal for being a 5 year deal disguised as 3 at high salary + 2 at lower salary to improve the Bombers free agency compensation.

I thought the AFL had to approve all contacts to stop this type of thing happening.

Yeah, they did, now Brisbane have put forth an extension for Danniher and it must have looked a bit suss so they're going back to find a couple wrists to slap.

Aaaah, well its a stupid ****ing system then.

And Daniher is daft to agree to it now. If I was him I'd demand my value. If there is evidence to a contrary agreement they'd have to dob themselves in.

I dunno, seems to me there's no way to conclusively prove it unless it's Kurt Tippet levels of stupidity and clerical errors.

Yup, that's why Daniher should call their bluff and make himself an extra $500000.

Dude's in peak form and he's been offered less money, would be suss for sure if he accepts.
