Discussion 2019 AFL Finals Series - Week 3 Discussion (RICH v GEEL, COLL v GWS)

[nitewalker13]

WCE players looks bit tired.

Geelong has come out with Vengeance.

 

[Human Person]

I'm sticking to my prediction like the stubborn jerk that I am. Go WC.

 

[Hayes4PM]

Geeeeez umps lifting for the Weagles now

 

[BrutThough]

I prefer it when Geelong are the ones losing.

 

[Human Person]

Umpires were blind then. 2 holding the balls and a diving into the legs.

 

[Human Person]

Ryan dropped the knees brilliantly there.

 

[Human Person]

Wow, commentators are quick to jump on Rioli's side. I would've thought tampering with a drug test would cop a bit more scrutiny than it has.

 

[Brains Trust66]

Amazing West Coast 17 free kicks to Geelongs 6 early in the third quarter . They must have brought their home umpires with them again.

 

[SaintersUnite]

I don’t care what anyone says, Hickey was one of my fave players here and I’m really happy for him to be playing in a finals side.

 

[Impatient Saint]

F..k WCE get looked after by the umpires - 3rd quarter 20 frees to Geelings 9 when 2 points the difference.

 

[SaintersUnite]

Guthrie has looked really good tonight

 

[Diehard Saint]

Funny to see two of our ex ruckmen playing against each other.
Hope the Eagles can do this.

 

[pebblesofsand]

How gutless are the commentators - Hawkins punches someone in the head and they can barely bring themselves to actually comment on it.

Loved his quote about playing with NicNat.

“We’re like Batman and Robin. No, actually he’s Batman and I’m the damsel in distress.”

 

[BrutThough]

The only positive about this is the joy I will get from watching Richmond smash Geelong next week.

Why waste breath...he’ll get off ( as you do if you’re a big name playing finals)

I don't see how he gets off.
It was clearly high contact, it was low impact because Schofield played the game out and it was clearly intentional. That has to be 1 week by the MRO Guidelines.

Cats would challenge to to try and get it down to reckless which is just a fine, but you don't swing a fist behind play like that without it being intentional.

Easy, he’ll use the Barry Hall defence!

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets off - there's no rule book when the finals roll around, big wigs want to fill their back pockets.

 

[BrutThough]

The MRO actually had the guts to suspend Hawkins.

 

[Hayes4PM]

The MRO actually had the guts to suspend Hawkins.

So they should. Off the ball arm swing to the chops, it’s a weak, ugly look.

 

[Human Person]

Liking this game, commentators are losing their voices

 

[Human Person]

Hahahahahahahahahaha, did Davis just let the F word slip? Who does he think he is, ROMA?

 

[FlyingSledghamer]

Good game. Greene's a sniper but what a gun.

 

[BrutThough]

That was so good to watch.
