Oh god it would be amazing if the Tiggies dropped the game against the Saints.

What is giving you the idea that they could?

What is giving you the idea that they could?

The fact there was like an 8 pt difference 10 minutes ago.

Saints not totally out of it. Yet.

Is it possible to play the Tigs first week of finals. I'd rather them than *.

100% impossible and improbable. NM vs * is locked in. Tight.

It's more improbable. Rich would have to win by a decent margin today, and then would have to beat Syd next week, and * would have to lose to Carlton next week for it to be a chance.

It's Melbourne-breaking-the-streak improbable.

Jinx ...

 

[Flawed Genius]

Tiges are home.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Yup, Saints went from competitive to laying down and copping it in the space of 2 minutes.

Touch wood....

Touch wood....

I try to avoid using that phrase, obviously.

Cross my fingers.

Heheheehe he said wood

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Huhuhuhuh.

Puopolo is even better at raising the arm when tackled to draw a high contact free than Selwood,

If thats true, Puopolo should get around 200 head high frees in the next 5-6 years.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

It's nice having the epl back.

 

[Benno_900]

Yes, I missed flipping my s**t at 3.30am every Sunday morning.

Its worse being a hammer's supporter.

I hardly sleep during the EPL off season and sleep even less for the 9 months it's up and running.

Oh, and Daniel Ricciardo is a bloody gun! What a win tonight, his 3rd for the season. Giddy the f*** up Danny Bhoy!

A nailbiter of a race too.

Dont tell me he didn't know where he is forcing his forearm elbow on Roughys neck. He did it twice not just once

1st time




Gap before forcing his arm on throat



2nd time he puts the forearm on his throat.

 

[giantroo]

And then you have Roughy grab the back of Selwood's neck and forces it down because he is in distress

Comparing this to Boomer, there is not much difference, if Selwood doesnt go for this and at least get two weeks (bye bye Brownlow) I'll loose it.

Even if it was for the second or so, he knew where he was 'placing/forcing' his forearm/elbow.

 

[giantroo]

Question to everyone is why did he go back for the neck??

 

[Event Horizon]

Given they play in a final, it will be interesting to see how hawthorn handle the medical report.

 

[Only Forwards]

It'll be below the required force.

 

[spongebucket]

On second look and after watching the video, there is not a lot in it, I only say that because of the time selwood had his arm in Roughy's neck, but it should be looked at by the MRP if its not the system is rigged.

Even if it was for the second or so, he knew where he was 'placing/forcing' his forearm/elbow.

This is spot on, which is why he should get at least a week or two depending on carryover points etc.

Given they play in a final, it will be interesting to see his hawthorn handle the medical report.

Good point!
