AFLW 2024 - Round 8 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
You saw a different game than me. Some terrible calls for both teams, which I'll assume was the rain getting in the eyes of the umpires.
And watch the replay with Milne - falling over before you take a solitary step should never constitute play on (unless you are Stephen Milne).
Selwood (who ducks his head way too much to be truly respected by opposition fans)
Yet again, Jones does a number on Gablett. Whenever he's playing us, he's going to be a bit like Belloch from Raiders of the Lost Ark, "Agh, Jones..."
You have little idea. When you are constantly harped on about as a complete and utter joke, when you field numerous calls to gtfo of "our comp" as if you aren't a foundation member, where you can't even celebrate a goddamn win because someone else always has to pipe up about how it means nothing, there's another DVD in the works and similar because a club milestone shouldn't be celebrated by supporters? And then to lose the GF after the season we had by a goddamn toe poke. By those little instances that would otherwise be so very inconsequential and to have further insult to injury by having that one bloke tied on points with Chappy for the Norm but disallowed on count back because majority < the number 3.
You have no clue how much it did and still does.
The man stands up in finals, he may cause you have your heart in your mouth and close your eyes when he gets it, but he was playing decent footy, he was stringing together games that we knew he was capable of, and much like early Kosi, or his brother X his body just capitulated with yet another injury. On his best he is best 22 on the interchange. The man effectively won us a prelim final.
No no, my point was in response to karma who effectively stated that the game was done and dusted against us because of the umpiring, which I found cheapened the game itself since both sides had to put up with shit umps as all sides have effectively had to do this year. For every incorrect disposal against us (cats players simply dropping the ball) there were us with a jumper tug.
Good to see Big Mick repaying the faith.
If we do make the GF - I have no doubt Mick will lift and be reported for striking fear into the opposition.
What are your thoughts on Peake?
James Gwilt is the master and the best undercover brother in the league.
Gwilt > Kobe
Agree about Gwilt, he has become the Michael Jordan of the AFL. Taking the game to a new level that no mere mortal can compete with.
Thirty two disposals, seven clearances, three tackles and two goals, if we meet again in the GF I hope he "does a number" similar to that again, I'd take that output from Gaz every day of the week.
Its amazing that StKilda has beaten every team in the top 6. Thats 6 wins against the other 5 sides in the top 6, but still noone rates us a chance at all, and its always the oppositions fault for losing the game.
Did you really think Gazza had an influence on the game especially 2nd half regardless of his stats?Congratulations on the victory, not much you can say except far to good on the night.
If someone said before the game that any team, under any conditions, could restrict the cats to three behinds in a half of footy you'd look to have them committed; best defensive effort I've probably ever witnessed.
Can't leave without putting my hand up for a couple of the lads though ...
Gotta say that anyone who can't truly respect this bloke can't really truly respect footy.
Thirty two disposals, seven clearances, three tackles and two goals, if we meet again in the GF I hope he "does a number" similar to that again, I'd take that output from Gaz every day of the week.
I started a thread elsewhere about Jay Clark who wrote most of the stuff in the Sunday Herald Sun. He is ex Geelong Addy, does feature articles for the club and this morning was playing out his role as the spin doctor, have a look at his article about cameron Ling and how he used it to question umpiring decisions.Pretty pathetic the Hun today was, if baker "deserved it" according to those blokes than since Stevie J reciprocated the jumepr punches and grappling so does he since they're really both as guilty as each other. Yet the only Saints player I saw a quote from was Spider and he was pretty much of the same opinion while the rest were all about protection and provocation clauses.
A bit precious that read was.
