It should be. Maybe all the whinging from Crows last week influenced the AFL in that concession. :shock:

What whinging did the club do?


Unfortunately the spuds in the media that support the crows, in particular KG, Rowey and even Roo influence so many of their supporters views and perhaps even their players as evident in their performance against Geelong. All I heard last week was the shit about Nth Melbourne from fans at work, No respect whatsoever was shown to Geelong or Brisbane.

Will they get 60k?

If they get 60 it's only 7k that miss out at Etihad.

Surely 65-70 is too many for a Bulldogs crows final?



Jarman reckons 70+ :roll:

F**kwit.

I'd suggest low to mid 50's

He also says the Bulldogs should stop sooking. F**king Hypocrite last week last week he squealed like a virgin being broken in by John Holmes about the kangeroos resting blokes so the crows wouldn't get a final.



55-60 I would think. If they get 70 then Andy Newton is batting about 1 from 624 for outlandish dumb sh&it statements. Did Clarko end up coaching the Crows this year :roll:

Th WB V AC game has been transferred to the MCG to maximise crowd attendance ?

This being the case the question must be asked
If AC were playing CO this weekend at Adelaide Oval, would they transfer it to the MCG were perhaps 75000+ would attend ?

Western Bulldogs have been disadvantaged

No but if we had a bigger stadium in this state they'd move it there.
Geelong have been more disadvantaged most years for a hundred years, boohoo Bulldogs.

Actually its the media making the noise as the Bulldogs haven't said much. I don't think they'll be askig the AFL for an interpretation of the rules for this one.

Also agree with you Wedgie, Geelong have got a raw deal for a while in not really having home finals. I only recall a few finals at most at skilled.

I heard Jarman say last night that Bride Smith missing out this week is bigger than Isaac Smith and Kieren Jack's omissions, it made me laugh until I stopped laughing.

No excuse. I'd just rather play them in reasonable conditions so both teams can showcase their talents.

Brodie and jack are both all Australians. And Brodie will be a bigger out to the crows than Isaac to the Hawks.

Don't agree with jack though, swans need him given Parker is already out
