Idiot? Tough guy behind a computer. Both games we where destroyed by poor umpiring.

Great win which just makes me madder thinking about the Port and Freo games. Both games taken away by blatant bias and incorrect umpiring decisions. We should be 6-1 going into a Perth trip ( thanks AFL fir the short week) So umpires you can get stuffed.

Why is it ridulous Curly - can you name what opponents Brendan has beaten this year?

Whos beaten him is the only question that we need to worry about. Goddards role is to set up play.

Another ridiculous post. Goddard is only one man.

Interesting thread this. Good for debating. The whole umpiring debate could be quashed by publishing the missed & unwarranted free kicks each week. Afterall, there is a lot of money bet on footy these days, and the AFL take a cut out of the gambling dollar. *This idea may not be helpful at juni...

Your trolling yeah? We gave to frees for to high on Saturday night one was an incorrect call by the ump the other was unavoidable. As for the fifties we have been reamed this year with the ticky toch ones while receiving non in return for far worse BJs v Freo one that springs to mind.

Jack kicked the ball off the ground under preasure. He would have been unaware of the free. the whistle was about half a second before he kicked it - plenty of time for him to react. he just thought he could kick the goal so he gave it a go. Half a second gee!!! A blokes got an opponent up his tail...

That advantage call was just wrong. No excuses just a wrong decision cost us a goal. Mind you from the kick in they goaled. The fifty to Rioli was WRONG then to make it worse Polo marks gets tackled gets nothing. Then Stanley marks ump calls play on. How the f*** do they get AFL gigs with such simp...

Farout, I thought it looked accidental… Plenty have been asking for him to be dropped will be pleased no doubt. Well if it is accidental they will challenge as he cant get anymore weeks. And if it accidental and we have smart people in charge he will get off. If he doesnt we either have dumb people...

f***** double standard cheating dogs. I just spat out my tea when I heard Joey 2 weeks. I seriously was waiting to see a incident I'd missed during the game. This takes the cake FFS don't try and justify this as anything but a disgrace. What it does do is further prove the double standards of the AFL.

Ross a long way off. His intensity was seriously lacking today. If it's like that normally (only Sandy game I've seen him play) then there would be serious doubts in him making it moving forward. I disagree. Ross has to come in as soon as possible. His hands are so clean and decision making is spot...

When Dal got pinned it was just blatant Im going to stamp my authority on the game. So you sit back and say so thats how its going to be tonight. Not once did they pay a holding free. When Jones tackled the Freo play in our goalsquare the play got swung put the ball in one arm and placed it on the g...

Seriously, what did he say?

First off our skills where poor no doubt. But if anyone tells me our forwards shouldnt have been rewarded another 6 frees I will spew up. Constantly blocked knocked over held hit high nothing. Then when Roo gets one from 6 when McPharlin wraps his arm around him and punches him in the head with the ...

lets hope not.

Please dont ever mention Dawes again the bloke a donkey.

I saw where the ball went and where he got it. Jones did a pretty good job.

Watched the replay today and Ablett was no way near as good as Goddard. Very good game by Jones in limiting Abletts disposal efficiency.

Id like to see Ross come in hes a true midfielder not just a bloke that can push through there. Ledger I thinks a must also. Peake- Sub

Polo and Ray --out

X Clarke was doing what Yarran is doing now back then. Never massive numbers like Yarran but had a leap and burst of speed that was first rate.

Can't believe blokes taking shots at Roo. The bloke is slaughtered by our disposal and now it seems that defenders are allowed to charge under him and take him out of the contest. Roo maybe has to go to Full forward short leads one out straight lines.

The panel of Dermie, Parkin,Shaw and Pickering all agreed that StKilda looked like a horse well short of a gallop in the WC game. They all agreed that being a week at this time of year is like an eternity. The Filth got hammered by Adelaide last week and looked nothing like the side that played yest...

I think my 3 letters was more thoughtful than your 20 or so words. Just summed you up in those 3 letters. I think you wanted to remind everyone you're still an idiot without a clue... mission accomplished...not that we needed this thread for that...we have your whole posting history to go on... Yep...

Not being critical of peoples reports as there much appreciated but of course skills are going to be down and players will be rusty.

You tell me
