Dunno why they persist with it Bayman.
Brisbane won 3 flags playing exciting attacking footy and so did Geelong.
I guess its a personel issue and not every team can do it, but that super flood crap that has been employed by some teams is rubbish.
The positive is that the more crap the afl is, the more might go to watch SANFL.

exactly & what i get amazed at is some of these clubs have highly paid & high profile forwards & the coaches through tactics wont give them a chance to show their talent

eg barry hall

36 for Port is GONE next week.
He'll get sited for that

Mrs_dog_ger stop sing'n the Roosters song......

[bayman]

hey smithy, do you think port will slow it down in the last couple of minutes like they did in the first 3 quarters if they are still behind ?

back to 16 point margin with 8.55 left

[Footy Chick]

Very ugly now, nothing in the Bassett incident, that was a legal tackle, think the Brogan one will have to be looked at and for what occurred with the Crows trainer, who knows, from what I saw on the telly very inconclusive love to see it in super slo mo

accidental boot hit the trainer

Poor Vinnie...OUCH!. player on the ground for quite a while before trainers got there. Play should have ceased well before this incident, for the safety of the injured player and the officials.

[smithy]

not sure crows will let them bayman.
they got a short bench and are running the game out well.

then again, is it in ports nature to attack? not sure they would know what to do.

2 to 3 deliberate charge

where would port be without Shaun Burgoyne, this guy is 10 times better than his brother and has well and truly kept them in this match with a chance to snatch it

[smithy]

Play did stop FC.
It was the melee that cause him to get hit.

[hearts on fire]

If Thomas gets suspended, the whole systems stuffed.

It was clearly an accident and he shouldn't get suspended.

[smithy]

Should of been a 50 as well locky as its a reported charge (should've been reported) and would';ve been a shot at goal.

It was clearly an accident and he shouldn't get suspended.

The system is stuffed, but I agree with you he shouldn't get any games for that.
Just unfortunate he hit his head.
