Don't see a lot of the Cats these days, but this Walker bloke spuds it up everytime I see him. Reckon the Dogs can overrun them in the 2nd half here, hard to see who's going to kick goals for each team, but perhaps moreso the Cats

Clear touched in the West Coast game. Show the replay, touched, then the replay becomes ultra blurry for some reason.

all class. Seems to know where the goals are, and you can just tell that he will push up and play more midfield time as his career progresses.

Will end up a Stevie J type I think

havent watched 100% of any of todays games, but they all seemed decent from what i saw. Didnt see much of the Geelong Dogs game though.

Having said that I seem to be watching more of the two "Cities" go at it rather than the Coll WC game

4 games this week so far and not one side has got to 100, too many games of 70-60 or the likes. Just find the game quite boring with ball up after ball up and every player in a 5m radius. Definately better athletes now but skills are worse and kicking for goal is amateurish

yeah team zone defence seems to have taken over these days. It does go in cycles, a few years ago the attacking game was probably dominating over the defensive game but it has flipped again.

I wouldnt be in favour of having silly zones etc on the ground though.

If they want a drastic rule change changing it to 15 a side would be a better way to go imo.

As a neutral umpires just seemed bad in general. Especially that goal umpire
