Did the umpire just ask if Douglas wanted to take the point or have the the shot again?

Yep, even if conditions are slippery they were just blatant drops.

White and Cox tried to fend off their opponent and then just dropped it.

Corona Man wrote:Varcoe...is there a bigger spud in the game?

Yes, they are all playing tonight.
Cloke,White,Pearce,Dawson,

I'm almost certain Freo have taken 2 years off Pavlich's career the way the kick into their forward line.

Motlop from 5m out cost Cats the game.
Hawks v Sydney, just stop wasting time.

Dangerfield play for Hawthorn now does he?
Go and sook about him in a more appropriate thread where sooking is the norm, Geelong or Adelaide ones would be a good place to start

Wow how many lemons did you suck ?

No lemons sucked here, did you know we've been premiers for 1001 days now, nearly 20 years since your cheating franchise had any success, toodle off back to your own thread with all the other footballing nuffies in your number 19 guernseys

What a dick comment, pull your head in

I actually like it.
It has the flavour of standard Hawks Arrogance, mixed with a little bit banter, with a splash of truth.
Just because it's not to your taste buds, doesn't mean the chef was wrong.

Once again, struggle to settle and fall to sleep. Alarm goes off for work, instantly drop off to sleep.

Not a night for big forwards.

Unlucky to play a whole career where conditions don't suit.

Mildura Race 6
Escape the Rain, going to be ridden more forward today finally. As long as the rain holds off they expect her to go very close.
Weir has put her over the logs to switch her on as he thinks she has pulled up too well after her last few races and might not have been putting in.
I'm in Mildura to watch her, I'll be the knob on the finish line jumping around if she wins.

Yuk. Stay in Mildura you cat.

NSW premier seems to care more about Dogs then people in general. Happy to campaign for Greyhounds welfare, but is happy to drain the water source of 10,000s of people at an unknown affect to the health of these people and communities so he can get the kick backs from the Rich Cotton growers in rural NSW.

If that is going to be payed then backmen have no chance at all ever again.
Geelong give it to Dangerfield, no matter what.

#freekickdangerfield

If Swans had a Participation award tonight, it would go to Ted Richards.

It's been refreshing that the umpires this week are cracking down on illegal disposal. The rule has barely existed the last few years, but it happens a lot and should be cracked down on.
Hopefully not just rule of the week.

I agree, but they're still missing far too many, so the inconsistency of calls is frustrating as

They are but I'd rather they call them and miss a few than none at all.

Yep, with his record too, I thought a week.

John Platten?

For duck's sake, I can handle Bruce McAvaney going on about Rioli, but when he starts having wet dreams about that mummy's boy Jack Gunston it makes me want to spew.
Commentators absolutely pitiful again tonight. The constant cock sucking over Cyril is just sickening. Luke Darcy saying no one else would of attempted that mark Rioli took just capped it

Gary Rohan kicks goal, Bruce mentions Cyril.
Cyril has had 9 touches at 66%. If you were only listening, you would have thought he's had 45 at 120% efficiency.
Luke Darcy is the only person who answers Bruce's questions.

No its getting within 10m of the mark, such a stupid rule and a way to harsh a penalty.

Great rule to bring back the 25m penalty for.

How come When Sydney lose close matches there is no mention of 'Bloods Spirit'?

Stayed up and watched it. Great last day.
Riaz warned twice about running on pitch, switched to around the wicket and had the Poms in all sorts, bowling Reverse swing outswingers, it was great to watch.

Been on for 20mins. Already a couple of them that piss me off.
"Footy is a metaphor for hard work and dedication in life"
C'mon mate, you're 21.

Is it a see thru fence???

I would be looking for a hiding spot near where this dickhead is and surprising him with something

Correct. Tomorrow.

So, not the greatest day to sit out the front, eating Jerky, drinking cans dressed as a hillbilly for a no result. My guess is the weather would have ruined his man bun so he decided to stay in. Will try again next weekend.
Could have been worse, could have watched Essendon v Brisbane.

That's never stopped Sydney before.

Freo within 3 goals with 6 mins to go and Ross Lyon has Weller,Mzungu and Walters in the middle.
Genuine tank

Since that, All momentum with GWS

Been a few weak efforts by Port which is why GWS have kicked the first 2 goals of the last quarter

Cats by 6 goals.
Bruce to ask how much they miss their injured players x6

I had Geelong more then 24.5 points.

They most definitely would go to those lengths and have done similar in the previous season.

Starc with 10 for the match.
Only Aussie winner for the match so far.

Make that 11. What a gun.

On ya Starcy! Gets a wicket next ball to make it 11 for the match.

Best figures from any Aussie bowler against Sri Lanka.

It will ease Collingwoods fans pain of having to sit through Cloke as long as they have had to.

I'm getting sick of track bias. Basically have to wait until race 3-4 to understand what's happening on the day.

Unlikely to see a weaker effort then that.

Geez Crows have been lucky.
Will face WC without Nic Nat

If we earn it, surely we can play on our home ground.

"The AFL is contracted to playing finals at ANZ Sadium in 2016, nothing has changed".
Pretty simple Wubbsy...
It's a deal the AFL setup... Not the swans. We were supposed to play there this year but we got out of that so hopefully we can get out of it again!

Sh*t venue

One bad deal out of countless good ones the AFL has "set up" for you.

He came out like a "Bull in a Chinese Restuarant" . I'm pretty certain that isn't a saying.

Worth it tho..

Worth every cent. Loved every second, feeding off the tears at the game.
That's why I rate it. Best hangover of the year so far.

Possible finals draw.
WC v WB @ Domain, Thursday night
Geelong v Hawthorn @ MCG, Friday Night
Swans v GWS @ ANZ, Saturday
Crows v Roos @ AO, Sat Night

Doubt they'll have a Thursday night final, esp when it doesn't involve a top 2 side
Definately will be one. The AFL are trying to get rid of Sunday finals.
Either the Crows or Eagles will host the Thursday night game

Dont think it will be elimination finals as then the winner gets the advantage over the loser of the qualifying finals the next week. It can only be the Sydney final on the thursday night i reckon if they a5re going to persist with it.
If they do run with an elim on thurs it will have to be the eagles one as they play the loser of cats hawks game which is a certainty for friday night

It can't be Thursday. I have to work Friday and I'll be drunk.

Crushed twice in one weekend.

Starc hits stumps again with a gem.
