The Doggies game was our 4th game in 20 days and the 2nd & 3rd game of that 4 game run were interstate with one day less to prepare than the Dogs whose previous game was at Marvel.

Fairly certain we were dead on our feet

Gawn got 1 free today and got mauled all day in the ruck contest

Maybe the umpires have been told to ignore holding infringements

I blame Max King

bulls*** ... AFL said the umpire saw Andrew with arms around King and paid the free kick So is that holding or not holding? Arms around? Yeah I reckon thats holding ... when is that ever not holding? McBurney contradicted himself Umpires pay holding off the ball many times without comment but in thi...

It's clear we need 1 or 2 more developing rucks

I would be surprised if we didn't draft one with a late pick

How feral are the Filth crowd

Have a closer look at that pic

Andrew stepping towards King to engage him

After this King turns to run back to the goal square .... possibly with a chance to lead out to the open pocket alas ... Andrew wraps him up

James Bartel just agreed Worst game of the year RL has now coached the 5 lowest scoring games at Marvel 2008, 2010, 2023, 2023, 2024 Did the opposition sides in those games not have coaches? Ross is indisputably a great structural coach whatever talent or lack thereof he has to work with. P. Roos m...

So keeping a side to 48pts isn't playing well?

King will be lucky to get another free all year .... whereas Curnow just his got weekly wink and nod free 15m out from goal

Can't be bashing the flavor of the month Hawks and poor old North

Saints is where the bashing is at ... get with the program!!

For mine this is pretty straight forward… The free is either technically there or it’s not. From the footage I saw, there was wrestling and grabbing each way = free kick was TECHNICALLY there one way or the other. So now it becomes a question of if it was too soft or not. Possibly was but that’s th...

A good win is one where you kick over 80pts for a game

A bad win is when you kick under 70pts

Yep those are the rules apparently

Seriously FFS

Yes it's all King's fault that we won the match

I'm kind of sick of people making excuses for King- he got flogged last night and only looked slightly better when he went up the field. He is one of our luckiest players in that regards being the constant and readily available supply of excuses. He just doesn’t use his tools to work hard enough to...

Yep was being impeded/held ... even the picture they have put up on news websites shows Andrew's arm is across and around King

A jumper pull isn't the only way you can hold someone off the ball

Sharman couldn't do any worse than Membrey

He might even take a mark

King clearly held

You are a dingbat Dud alongside those dingbat commentators

Well we won but it was unwatchable at times Kept the Suns to 13 shots at goal and really we should have won by 5 goals but some of our decision making and general skills you just want to rip your eyeballs out As for the free kick to King well he gets held constantly and the free kick was clearly the...

This is unwatchable at times

Take the shot Higgins

Fk u umpire .... misses the high contact and hands them a goal

Gresh went from a club playing Finals to lower mid level club who got whacked by 126pts and 70pts in the last 2 games of the season

FA next year

We definitely should be looking at another young ruck ... either through draft or trade Also mids and a small forward Personally I think this particular draft year is ordinary (compared to last few) but there are always some players who will make it LDU next year as an FA but we risk North actually ...

On average he has kicked more goals than Caminiti this year with more goal assists and more marks and takes the best back every week

And has been playing under an injury cloud

But hey Caminiti is the answer
