How do you dislike Freo?

I think they brought that rule in for the 2016 season.

I don’t really get it, Carlton have a big following here in SA too. Feel a bit for those fans who hardly get to see their team play.

They don’t get many chances to do it…

Tough result for the umpires, strong performance in a losing side.

Should be an inquest - you blokes are being shafted by the umpires.

Fox Footy running with the approach of “if you barrack for Fremantle and want to tune into this coverage then **** you”. Lol.

Mate it’s been this way for years. I often turn the sound off. I actually really like Carlton as a team (Sturt supporter) and it’s great to see them on the up, but I’m so sick of these commentators barracking for the next Victorian “fairytale” team. They fall over themselves for it and ignore...

You’re playing the latest “Fairytale” Victorian team in Melbourne. You’ll have no love from the commentators or the umpires.

Wtf is this umpiring? Blues have been anointed the next “fairytale” side?

Is that ground even AFL standard? Half the ground isn’t even lit properly and it’s not round.

Do Sportsbet offer a market on which team will win the free kicks? Dogs would have to be under $1.10 weekly surely.

Lol. This league is a joke.

Swings and roundabouts hey?

Freo in a GF wasn’t a fairytale. Crows weren’t a fairytale. Giants first ever GF wasn’t a fairytale. Watch the Port vs Melbourne qualifying final next week and tell me the commentators are neutral.

Now you know how most other teams feel when they play against your mob. The Swans ‘16 GF team would like a word too…

How someone could call this match a fix, but the 2016 Prelim and Grand Final perfectly fine is completely beyond me. Dogs had a chance to put themselves in the top 4 off their own boot but couldn’t do it without umpiring assistance. They wouldn’t have won the flag in 2016 without it either.

Would love to agree with you and say we follow an unbiased league. I’ll go rethink it, but it does get drummed in. - “Home of football” - “Bulldogs fairytale” - “Richmond fairytale” - Free kick Hawthorn - Free kick Bulldogs Anyway whatever, happy to admit tonight’s commentary is more about the...

Spoken like someone on the end of favourable media coverage and commentary, but ok.

The commentators only care so much about it because it’s the prospect of a Victorian team finishing top 4 vs a non-Victorian team.

Seriously odd umpiring tonight.

Dogs don’t know what has hit them with the free kick tally. Absolute unchartered waters for them.

West Coast getting a Bulldogs 2016 Grand Final type run from the umpires here.

More like National Banjthem.

Truly odd.

Why did the players have to line up as if for the National Anthem, only to cop Waltzing Matilda on a banjo?

Given the prime time slots on TV the Tigers have had, I’ve seen plenty of Jack over the journey. Very good player no doubt, but prone to carry on, a lot.

He approaches half of the contests he goes into as if his goal is to win a free kick. The umpires were always going to figure that out eventually.

He does pretty well from the umpires over the journey from what I’ve seen. I’d say he’s been educated over his career that throwing his arms out works, so he keeps doing it. Obviously a good player, but the feigning for frees us a blight on his game.

Can Jack Riewoldt give it a rest for once with the appeals for free kicks? Enough already.
