If this is the best team in the AFL I'll go he... These guys are s*** and without a full run from the umps would be losing this game.

3 frees should have gone to us in our goal square but of course they pick the one against us

Why are the Eagles 100% immune from holding the ball? Serious question... Been about 10 obvious ones so far

Great endeavour, pretty hard to score through all those numbers down there at the moment though.

9-4 their way.
F*cking joke playing the Eagles. They are + 400 on frees in the last 5 years.

One way rules again. Nic Nat and a number of others free to throw it out, no penalties.

I gotta agree.

I'm sick of this umpire rubbish.

Pay it how you see it, not what you hear moron.

Wow that was the worst decision I have seen this year...

The guy that Dunstan should get 2-3 weeks suspension, but instead gets a free :idea:

Our forward line movement is terrible....

Our kicking into forward 50 is also terrible.

Last 6 quarters our conversion of goals from 50 entries has been very very poor......

effort ok but we still need to improve so many areas.

Umpiring dodgy, but we're giving it a red hot crack. Pity we'll never really know how it might have played out on an even keel.
