Umm, maybe it had some good goals because the conditions allowed it. Serious wet weather footy last night kinda makes it difficult to be clean with the ball. But the tackling pressure and ferocity was far better last night, like when Darling got nailed in a tackle, and obviously the furore after the Vickery hit. At least it looked like two teams that wanted to win out there. The general play in the Brisbane game was shocking - as an Eagles supporter, it may have been more heartening for you because they won the game, but it was seriously bad.
**was typing at the same time you second posted - agree with that post by all means..
Dimma's contracted to the Tigers until 2016, and I think we're back on track in regards to our game plan and injuries to key players.Talking of Hardwick - is the general feeling now that Hardwick won't get the boot any time soon? Sure, this season went a lot worse than 2013, but the last month or so has seen a massive improvement in performance and there are some real quality finds like Miles and Thomas in that team.
But this year saw Bulldogs, Port, Essendon, North, Adelaide, Gold Coast, GWS, Sydney and Melbourne all improve from last year. In a season like this season, if you are off your game, you will drop badly. We were off our game at the beginning of the year and look where we ended up.Not really, the ones that are worth noting are, from 2010 to 2011 Essendon from 14th to 8th, 2011 to 2012 Freo from 11th to 7th and 2012 to 2013 Port from 14th to 7th, naturally GC as players mature and a few other sides who were already in the 8 but improved a bit more.. Everyone makes it sound it's so easy to improve when in actual fact its not. You only have to look at your own club to see how hard it is, they haven't really improved in 3 decades..
Are you serious?.. Bulldogs, Port, Essendon, North, Adelaide, Melbourne are about the same as last year, as i said Gold Coast along with GWS are going to keep improving with every game because they are such a young side, Richmond were 5th last year and no way known will you improve on that, so what are you on about?...But this year saw Bulldogs, Port, Essendon, North, Adelaide, Gold Coast, GWS, Sydney and Melbourne all improve from last year.

That sucks. Channel 7, puff piece on Natanui. Switch too Channel 10, puff piece on James Magnusson. Why can't these people just show the sport??
Which is exactly what I was saying, I was saying that it happens with all teams and all grounds. So you've abused me for what exactly?.Oh sorry
Collingwood fans.....hmm .....excuse me...?
That bloke gave Vickory a spray didn't go over the top .....he didn't jump the fence ...
I have sat in the he outer at the MCG when Collingwood plays ......your mob are far worse ...
Perspective please
Thought so, lol, sarcasm meter was off.it was just a lame joke by me
My bad mateWhich is exactly what I was saying, I was saying that it happens with all teams and all grounds. So you've abused me for what exactly?.
You can go around abusing other anonymous strangers if you can't handle losing, but leave me out of it, thanks.
I'll let you know in 89 yearsSorry which team in 2103 lost finals match to team that finished 9th on the table .....

The Cox elbow happens all the time mate, take your Tiges goggles off here. You can't argue that it's an eye for an eye, it just isn't.
Lol what? This happens in every game of football. What Vickery did was cowardly dog act.
Take your eagles goggles off and look at what Cox did as nothing more than a cheap shot, something he has extensive history at doing. It is still a strike. You cant give people little punches to the sternum, elbows should not be tolerated.
No they are not?Are you serious?.. Bulldogs, Port, Essendon, North, Adelaide, Melbourne are about the same as last year, as i said Gold Coast along with GWS are going to keep improving with every game because they are such a young side, Richmond were 5th last year and no way known will you improve on that, so what are you on about?...
What a load of s**t.
What about deliberate elbowing, what are your thoughts?My bad mate
What that supporter did was excellent.........in totally just
Now a few have said that isn't on for kids seeing it
Umm so kids seeing Vickory whack cox with cheap shot from behind ....what message
I was watching with my kids at home and my 7'year old did ask why the fan was going crazy
I just said he was yelling because seeing a player punched in the face from behind is wrong mate ........
Done......he understood .....
What about deliberate elbowing, what are your thoughts?
No doubt Vickery should go for up to 4 weeks but the elbow that instigated the retaliation is worthy of a couple of weeks itself
Could happen again if infractions are served ...
No other team has lost a finals match to a team who finished 9th
Exactly what should have happened I've seen softer hits to the solar plexus this year that have been given suspension, a free for the initiating act would have stopped Vickery's retaliation.If they started paying frees for cheap, soft shots like that, Cox'd have to retire.

Don't get me wrong Vickery was stupid and deserves everything he gets but that doesn't mean the elbow should be ignored.
you don't make sense, just off the top of my head Bulldogs beat Port last year and port had a comfortable win over the Bulldogs this year vice versa to what you pointed out.. for a team to improve it needs to go up the ladder a few rungs.. by beating a few teams one year and loosing the next can be a lot of different factors.. Demons, Bulldogs and Tigers haven't really improved all that much on ladder positions and that's what really counts.No they are not?
How are Melbourne and GWS the same as last year when they used to get belted week in and week out, and how are Port the same as last year if they were first on the ladder for a good few weeks? Never did I say that Richmond were going to improve on 5th. All I said was that Richmond were off their game at the beginning of the year by a little bit and were bulldozed. We were beaten by Bulldogs and Melbourne this year whom we had comfortable wins against last year
