Re: Finals discussion thread
What is the point of having a goal review system?
Just instantly award the decision in favour of the home team and stop wasting time.

The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

Yes, by a point, with two seconds to go.

Re: Finals discussion thread
The hometown decisions are outrageous. That deliberate was a shocker.
Mind you, Eagles have had their chances in normal time. Typical of that downhill skier LeCras to not have the guts to pick up the ball, or at least hit it with conviction , rather than his anaemic effort. I once heard someone say that there are certain items that should not get on planes, like scissors, explosives and Mark LeCras.

OMG! Fitting. Absolutely cannot believe I was barracking for West Coast against shite hometown umpiring advantage.
Oh, the irony of it.
Looking forward to watching the Never Tear Us Aparts tear each other apart.

Well, that is good to see. A dodgy free to arm-lifting Luke Shuey silences the Power.

It's amazing what a difference good set shot kicking makes when the pressure is on.

Re: Finals discussion thread
How can a side with players like Travis Boak, Sam Gray, Chad Wingard, Ollie Wines, Charlie Dixon, Paddy Ryder and a really good youngster like Powell-Pepper lose a home final to the Eagles?

Same here. Probably Hutchings and Cripps playing for the Eagles had something to do with it in my case.SemperFidelis wrote:OMG! Fitting. Absolutely cannot believe I was barracking for West Coast against shite hometown umpiring advantage.

Port are s***.
And we are a poor man's Port.
Port play a s*** game style that results in lots of points and AR copies that s*** game style
They are a joke.
And we are a derivative of a joke.
A Xerox of a s*** team.
