Please stop Geelong. Percentage is meaningless

still a joke how Mannagh won 'the best young player' award last year

Who else despises "country road" now??

The part I don't like is the (what appears to be) fake crowd singing they play at the end over the speakers

Murphy Reid clears him by the length of the Flemington.

exactly!

 

[Minz]

Lol, I was watching this wondering why Geelong was wearing a clash jumper.

I think I need to get more sleep

 

[FreoRicci]

Mannagh not getting drafted until 26-27 years old is crazy.

 

[freodog]

At the time I was in the camp for drafting a kid, and I like Coop Simpsons potential. But in hindsight we should have just grabbed Mannagh. Would be very handy for us right now.

Would have won the first game instead of kicking 3 goals against us

 

[Purpletown]

Brisbane players expend a lot of energy appealing to the umps for free kicks. Flopper Morris constantly playing for frees.

 

[Alfonz]

You just know Brisbane won't put in a stinker against us.

And hats off to the AFL fixturing department ... Brisbane and Geelong play again in 7 weeks at GMHBA.

Think two of those goals had some very questionable umpiring assistance, umpiring assistance that never once came back our way.

He was very overrated in that game.

Would be as lethal on Fremantle wing as Geelong too. Needed a winger and Mannagh was perfect

Er, having been in many Gabba crowds I can assure you that isn't fake, the crowd literally keeps singing it once the song cuts off

See swanny1234 this is why people make sarcastic posts whenever teams don't "put away" weaker teams.

I am in Brissy for the weekend.

Staying near the Gabba.

I just did a walk around the ground Its amazing the stadium is bigger then the land its on.

Stanley street side has half the structure hovering over the road.

Your point is?

Geelong got a huge win plus valuable percentage last night, why is that a bad thing.

I’d like to think we put Essendon away this Sunday.

My point is, belabouring that point every time a team has s good win is why some respond with sarcasm when a team should have a big win and doesn't.

Pointless tit for tat both ways.

I tagged you in because I thought it was you who you asked the question. If not, then play on

Yet still below us on the ladder.

Mannagh was coached by Michael Barlow. Mick said he was a perfect fit.

 

[David Bubb]

One to watch before our game v Saints next week

 

[DQ 4EVER]

Waiting for a commentator to call Sydney's drive through the middle of the ground, the "Sydney Sling" or "Sydney Swathe", but I don't see the second one getting a run (pardon the pun)

Close.

Swans Surge on fox.

 

[Cesoir]

Very nice welcome to country ceremony.

 

[mattis117]

Pies look up for this. I've thought Sydney have been one dimensional all season, will be really interesting if pies can take away their forward handball, what else have they got.

 

[Heave Ho Bro]

Handy result for us if the Pies can pull it off
