Re: Was Darcy Wilson ripped off

Watching the sprint live at the game, it looked like Wilson hit the tape first, and his reaction straight after suggested that he thought he did too. What did the tv show and was the replay definitive? It appeared that McReery was declared the winner almost immediately. Very confusing at the ground...

Re: Junction Oval in funding crisis.

Dave, I have no idea where you get your figures for your cut and paste document that you regurgitate in your posts about this, but saying that St Kilda festival gets 700,000 people is some Donald Trump level exaggeration of crowd numbers, as the festival themselves say they had up to 375,000 people ...

Re: Junction Oval in funding crisis.

The govt' $$$ poured into Linton Street shouldn't affect any move our club might one day make SW. As per with our previous ground at Outer Seaford (aka 'Halfway to Canberra' Oval :( ), the facilities funded at Moorabbin can be used by the community, and by community teams/groups. And no reason (at ...

Re: Tarryn Thomas

According to Morris on channel 9, a number of players were adamant that he should not be pursued, the main one being Mason Wood who said he wouldn’t want him there going back to his time as a teammate of his.

Nick Dal and Hannah Priest also made it clear they didn’t want him around apparently.

Re: Sandringham

Really, I find him a very reliable short kick. He goes short with probably half of his kicks, and pinpoints them well My observation was more from watching him live yesterday, when he got the ball in the backline a few times he just seemed to change his mind at the last second and spray it 30-40 me...

Re: Sandringham

Would love to see Ari come back in and a great game also from Hugo Garcia today - what a little terrier he is, an amazing 14 tackles today! Ari worked reasonably hard to get free and provide run from behind and obviously it was a team instruction to get it to him so he can use his kicking as much a...

Re: Sandringham

At the game, conditions haven’t been too bad since midway through the first quarter. Bloody cold but wind isn’t too bad. Poor skills all around though, Garcia looks the cleanest, Keeler been torched a couple of times going forward by bad decision making of others and Allison has spilled a few opport...

Finlayson got 3, which was manifestly excessive. In law, no court in the damned world would give a harsher penalty to a crim fo...

Here's the thing though. The umpiring didn't decide the match. It hardly ever does Only guys like CURLY try and turn every loss into an excuse to blame umpires. There's no point wallowing in self pity and whinging over every incorrect decision. We didn't need the umpires to win the game. We needed ...

All this talk about matching if its a end of first round compo, he is unrestricted so no matching is available. If he decides he wants to go to the hawks, thats what happens and we get what we are given.

Re: Match Thread Brisbane V St Kilda

Terrible miss by Bonner, though, if it was 50 metre penalty why wasn't it Owen's kick? Actually thought that Bonner would have been better suited if the kick was 40-45 metres out. It’s either downfield to where the free was given or a 50 from where the ball was being kicked, whatever the bigger adv...
