Holy crap this score review incident is ridiculous.

Poor stats guys having to wipe 90 seconds worth of stats.

AND it was marked over the line. WTF is going on. Imagine if WCE lose by a kick.

McQualter would be thrilled to be that close. The Eagles are a rabble.
 
People will look at the score at half time and see a 40 point margin and say the ARC call didn’t make any difference…

In the context of the game the Eagles had wrestled back control and were only 15 points behind and building momentum, this completely disrupted the natural flow of the game and destroyed all their momentum

It is embarrassing for the afl but you're drawing a long bow if you think it influenced the outcome. Eagles are a long way off it.

I’m not saying the eagles should be winning by any means but the effect on the momentum of the game cannot be understated

I mean, the Saints just absorbed the Eagles best shot and blew the lead out in the matter of minutes before three quarter time. Let's not make a mountain out of a molehill here.

I wrote a post of an internet forum I’m not down at AFL house with a pitchfork
 
There’s going to be a lot of left nuts piled up at Alberton by seasons end.
Why is it always the left nut? Is the right one more precious? This is worthy of an internet search!

Added -this article suggests a couple of urological reasons, I can't say I am convinced.
 
did I hear Kelli Underwood snort laugh at her own joke when interviewing Jack Higgins? Snappy jacky - hilarious 😅

Fox carrying on like Adelaide are top 8 team this year, they've been sub par all year
The fixture really can skew things. Adelaide finished on top last year because they were junk in 2024 and got an easy fixture as a result. Then they were exposed in finals. But because of finishing high on ladder, they get a hard fixture this year and are losing. Melbourne and North getting the benefits of the easy fixtures this year.

Lions still the team to beat and they're proven. Hawks, Swans and Dockers being the in-form challengers. I expect Cats to time their run and challenge too but i'd be surprised if another outside of these 5 challenges.

The bottom 4 teams being as bad as they currently are (Richmond, Essendon, Carlton and West Coast) really buggers up any ability to make the draw fair.

Any team that gets double up games against these teams is getting a bonus win other teams don't.
 
There's a chance North could jump ahead of us on the ladder this arvo and into 3rd. I would never have thought that to be even a remote possibility at the start of the season.
How? We've only lost one game.

Imagine paying Oscar Allen?

Nope, I didn't leave out "a million dollars a year".

I just can't imagine even paying him.

He looks pretty bloody cooked. Moving like a mid 40s suburban dad playing kick to kick with his kids down the park 😬

With all the talent the Lions have on their list how he is getting paid $1 million a year is a real head scratcher.

Bailey with 29 disposals and 3 goals shows why I am so keen to get him over to the Hawks. He's just such a consistent performer.

They must be playing in one of those fabled 8-point games I’ve heard about
 
You know you've been shit for a significant period of time when the commentators say "well done" for a routine spoil.
