AFL 2019 Round 2: Hawthorn v Bulldogs, 3:20pm AEDT MCG

[Biggy_Boy]

The Dogs having 20 more inside 50's says it all.

Having watched Geelong's game last night, I'd say inside 50 counts don't say much at all.

Hawks fans complaining about umpiring spare me

Say that again

Not sure why everyone is saying the better team won. The Hawks were down two of their most experienced players. More like the undermanned team lost.

Your supposed to have a low IQ big footy view of the outcome, not apply logic.

After watching that 3 times i still have no idea what the free against sicily was for

Can't punch or elbow anymore pretty simple

 

[Arkangel]

If I were a Hawks supporter, I would be livid about a couple of those frees in the last quarter---even if they were there according to the letter of the law, they were just weird.

As a Dogs supporter… that last quarter was a lot of fun.

Unless you’re playing Melbourne you don’t want to be conceding -20

 

[Gavin Excell]

Loss of Burgoyne and that other guy hurt Hawks rotations clearly

 

[SSSSSS]

What frustrates me about those soft frees is that the perpetrator is never penalized but the person who retaliates is.

It boggles the mind.

"Your"? Lol!

 

[Holy Rioli]

Worried about the second half, not gonna lie. Umps will want to even the free kick count up and I hope we haven't spent all our chips early.

Nothing to worry about here, umps kept their form for the entire match.

Probably sums it up. We lost but im not worried we played well and dont have any form issues.

Burgoyne and Shiels could change my tune slightly but with Wingard due to come back we might be abke to replace one of them.

 

[Cemos]

Hawthorn are really just not that good, but well done Doggies.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Nah **** it, good on you Sicily for actually taking it to the umpires because no one else seems to be. They have been horrible so far this season and there is 0 accountability.

Yeah, and with rationale you probably also reckon Nick Kyrgios is justified in the way he treats umpires as well.

 

[Free Agent]

If only Hawthorn where 50 points up at 3 quarter time they might of actually been a chance today.

Bulldogs too good and they were only in 2nd gear. Training run the Hawks are.

U dont watch much footy do u.

 

[Substance]

Libba playing?

He was out there somewhere. Freak in and under mid at his best.

 

[scaryness]

Apparently kicking 9 unanswered goals is entirely the umpires fault

 

[RUNVS]

I didn't see it but what happened to Burgoyne and Shiels?

 

[Upgrayedd]

Can't punch or elbow anymore pretty simple

So why didnt Sicily get a free kick at the start of the exchange?

 

[Upgrayedd]

Loss of Burgoyne and that other guy hurt Hawks rotations clearly

That was the biggest loss, O'Meara was spent and we missed just a pinch of late game Class which is Burgoyne, Shiels is a huge runner for us as well and we went to water

 

[Do the Dew]

The free kick against Sicily when scores were level was one of the worst I've ever seen..and I'm a tigers supporter, we're used to going -10 each game! AFL talks about state of the game and 666 but you have absolute bullshit like that effectively deciding a match. Commiserations Hawks supporters, that was a farce. Hope Clarko rips the shit out of the umps in the presser

 

[Pepperlad]

30 disposals 6 tackles a goal and 23 pressure acts, Our best today

Did you even watch, Troll?

53% disposal efficiency. Never have I seen a player bomb it nowhere from a clearance so frequently.

Yep, that'll be a yikes from me.

 

[Igloo]

I didn't see it but what happened to Burgoyne and Shiels?

BT was saying both looked like hamstrings. Don't think they showed any vision.

 

[slashin_velvet]

So why didnt Sicily get a free kick at the start of the exchange?

He was also clearly held during the exchange. I'm no fan, but if the game is going to turn on these types of decisions, they better be right
