I really don't know how to fit that much into a small icon

I love this superior fitness myth that has suddenly appeared this week so that commentators can justify Richmond having a chance.

Crows are the better second half team.

Hope you enjoyed the game you arrogant dickhead

I'll call on you when I need my toilet cleaned.

How did you know im a plumber

Crows by 48

Wrong way round mate!

 

[Kingfish73]

You and Ken? I'm petrified.

119.

Good day today mate? Hahaha

 

[Kingfish73]

Haha! Do you even want to start talking about getting belted in grand finals?

Good luck next year mate. In Ken we trust!

Seeing your posts...you are a big sook. Give your mum a cuddle

See, when you have no ******* idea about what's unfolding in front of you there's no option but to resort to narratives and conspiracy theories. Accepting that the best side in the competition, who comprehensively beat the sides that finished 1st, 2nd and 4th, in the finals series and never looked like being beaten, are just that is too difficult for those with jaundiced views and weak minds.

So here's a narrative for you and Plugger35 and your little gaggle of "umpire-day thread" commentators... Richmond are premiers. Every game you gave us no chance in we won, and easily. Happy to oblige. So the big question is - are you guys all fapping together in the same latex covered bedroom when you develop your conspiracy theories and post your relentless umpire critiques, or do you skype each other to share in the pleasure?

Bulldogs supporters were in denial about the armchair ride they got from the umpires in last year's GF too but unlike last year I don't think the umpiring decided the result as Richmond outplayed Adelaide after half time and won comfortably, last year the game was still in the balance well into the last quarter.

GF umpiring used to be a much higher standard than the rest of the year but the last 2 years it has been as bad as the umpiring we get in the H&A season.

I don't know why people get so upset with people complaining about the umpiring, if no one complains about it the AFL won't be forced to improve it.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Worst premiership side ever.

Comfortably.

Football is in a sorry state.

Best.

Because whinging is boring and it's all you do. One match-relevant observation from the first 20 posts that came up in search. You cheered on a Tex goal. Any chance you might at any point acknowledge the match that's unfolding?

Imagine the pathetic quality of the wooden spooner if that is the case.

How did the superior fitness myth in the GF workout?

Not really. The talent spread is just not that great in 2017.

The distance between the Hawthorn, Sydneys & Geelongs of recent years, in comparisonto the bottom sides, was much greater. The gap has definitely narrowed and this can be seen by a side finishing 13th last year winning the flag this year.

Maybe if the umpiring was less noticeable like it used to be in Grand Finals I wouldn't comment on it as much but it's hard to ignore it.

It wasn't like the match itself was anything to write home about, very few memorable moments although I doubt Richmond supporters would care.

It was putrid when the game was in the balance.

Anyone who thinks other wise has their eyes painted on.

Very similar to last week v GWS, then again the AFL did appoint 2 of those umpires for yesterdays game, so why should things be different?

If I watch any game in future with Stevic & Meredith umpiring, then I know they will impact the result with shithouse calls.

 

[Brown Bottle]

You're a lowlife too Brown Bottle, ruddy c÷nt

A lowlife? Did I drink your beer or something mate?

There was plenty of good Footy played if you were prepared to see it.

Forget about Martin, I'm struggling to come to terms with this:

Toby Nankervis - Premiership player
Kane Lambert - Premiership player
Jack Graham - Premiership player
Shane Edwards - Premiership player
Jacob Townsend - Premiership player
Dan Butler - Premiership player
Nathan Castagna - Premiership player
Nathan Broad - Premiership player
Kamdyn McIntosh - Premiership player
Dylan Grimes - Premiership player

If you want proof that football is in an all time rut, there it is.

Any team can win next years premiership.

Every single one of these players would get a game for your club. Grimes would be your best defender by the length of Ben Brown's run up.

 

[Bounceback]

Very true. See what happens next year? Hopefully we get Gibbs and make a couple more improvements. The Gov will come back in, smith will hopefully be back late next year too.

Personally I hope they Crows do not make it to the GF next year as I doubt they have the mental side to win one and the way the capitulated and we're weak and feeble means another boring game to watch

 

[Johnny_Dogg4]

thats why i prefer to be the team to win a close prelim and its good lead up to the GF, your switched on

if you have easy finals games, it could be a bad thing

 

[Denza]

And the irony is there has never been a more clear cut favourite, Crows will win in a canter.

Hahahaha
