How wasn't that deliberate?

I came here to say the same thing.
I hate the rule, what because he looked tired it wasn't deliberate? It wasn't going any where else.
It's like the "making an attempt" rule where players punch the air a few times to represent an attempt at a handball.
It is or it isn't.

Wood getting injured stuffed them. Rohan was close to the most influential player on the ground after that.

Tim English is a spud ruckman 10 HO, pantsed yet again by Mark Blicavs 26 HO and Rhys Stanley 19 HO...Geelong 49 HO Dogs 13 HO...even with probably the best midfield group in the AFL when is Beveridge going to wake up they need a competitive Ruckman.
Geelong who had to really earn their last 2 games can win it all this year I think (especially if they finish 2nd or 3rd on the ladder). They know it is probably their last chance with this current team. Despite the underachieving since their last flag, they have never fallen into a heap, they keep trying year after year. 10 preliminary finals since 2004 and 3 premierships as during that time. No guarantee they can win it but they will be up there with Richmond, Brisbane, etc.
I think the only team winning the whole thing this year is Richmond. They are constantly defended and sheltered by the club and AFL in everything they do, and seem to be currently shoe-horned towards a premiership.
The latest joke is Vlaustin clearly mimicking an injection into his arm during the song...
The incredible response from the club is that he is mimicking opening a bottle of wine and its an inside joke.....lol
Now I don't drink much wine but the last time I opened a bottle I'm pretty sure I didn't pull the cork through my forearm
Media response: ok sounds reasonable
AFL response: crickets

Given this happened after the West Coast game, is this a reference to the West Coast era in the mid 2000’s? With Cousins etc.
So a Saturday morning question...of the sides left that can realistically win the premiership - to my mind Richmond, Brisbane, Geelong and West Coast - which is the most palatable result?
My personal view:
Richmond - least palatable . They have become this ridiculously arrogant club that is unbelievably favored by the AFL (whether it be in terms of the fixture, game day umpiring, the tribunal (Cotchin still should not have played the 17 GF for me). Living in Victoria, their supporters are insufferable (honestly amazed at how many have come out the woodwork since 2017).
Brisbane - most palatable. Ok, they have two ex-Crows, but they have re-built from a club that was totally on its knees three years ago, with players exiting left right and centre, to this exciting team. Also, I dont know any Brisbane supporters, so wont have to hear about it (although I do live near their old home ground so assuming the plague ends might actually be enjoyable to see if the suburb comes alive for it)
Geelong - 50:50. Whilst the concept of "Hen-Pecked" Danger winning a flag is repulsive (I really dont know how he walks through doors with a head that large), let alone Man-Baby Hawkins and the Bleeder Selwood, you have to admire their record over the years, the fact they havent had to rebuild and their ability to attract and retain talent.
West Coast - 50:50. While I think we should be trying to emulate this club in pretty much every regard, their supporters are perhaps equal to Richmond in arrogance (never copped more abuse as a supporter than at games at Subi...the only exception the Phil Walsh game).
Port of course goes without saying...the Saints (well it would be fine, but again cant imagine them going deep in October), Bulldogs dont have the defence now with Wood gone, and the Pies have too many injuries...

West Coast most palatable. Very likeable club, likeable players, football style is great to watch, high level of adversity so adds to excitement of victory
Brisbane next. Lyons getting a premiership would be awesome, especially after we tossed him aside.
Then Richmond. Proven quality team, unlikeable and bad style of football but they find a way.
Geelong last. Insufferable club with many unlikeable players. Despite having many privileges, constantly complain it's not enough. Not winning this year would just about see off their playing group given the list profile and that would be a perfect result

I don't get how one person can be referred to as a "wife and girlfriend"
Should be wife or girlfriends, or wife or partners.
Surely those options would make better acronyms.
... or not.

GAME DAY
A freo win today would be huge. They could possibly pass GWS on percentage.
GWS then travel to Adelaide on a 5 day break, we don't travel and have a 7 day break.
Massive two games for this pick.

GWS are playing an extra game than us.
We play this Tuesday here against Hawthorn, then play the following Tuesday here against GWS.
GWS play today against Freo in Perth, then against Carlton at Metricon on Thursday, then they play us the following Tuesday.
