Another pleasing aspect was Matt Flynn's tap work at centre bounces.

ROB was pretty terrible I thought but also left pretty impressed with Flynn's work as well, going forward and kicking a goal is important too. Liked his game.

I was really underwhelmed in the first half, but it improved a lot more in the second (one of many).

Yet another snarky article about our crowd on Sunday. I thought the crowd was ok given the very hot weather and we were playing an interstate team. There are 10 Victorian teams in the AFL heartland, and when they play each other, their attendances are considerably boosted by the opposition fans. We are in a non AFL heartland and GWS is a multi generational project.

GWS make bizarre boast about shocking home crowd at AFL season opener

The GWS Giants have been mocked on social media following a bizarre 'flex' surrounding the official crowd number for their AFL season opener on Sunday against the Adelaide Crows.

I genuniely was disgusted with the way he carried on afterwards with the crowd, the trainers and the player. Grub

What did he do?

 

[Danny88]

What did he do?

Held his ear up to the crowd to encourage the boos. As wehr was helped from the ground he winked and had some comments to say. Clearly they were poor taste cos our trainer had a go at him and the umpire has to tell the trainer to pull his head in. So cogs stepped in and kept having a go at him

Honestly the worst kind of human.

Patrick Cripps …. A poor man’s Tom Green

Just by the way ...

I was hoping the AFL would appeal and ask for 6

“And rightly so”…
Modern ‘journalism’

“And rightly so”…
Modern ‘journalism’

It's unprofessionalism, not journalism.

 

[Giant Gutsache]

It's unprofessionalism, not journalism.

AFL can’t control idiot journalists, despite their best efforts. They can control the MRO and Tribunal, both of which have been an unprofessional farce for years.
Three weeks is right for McAdam, but his act was no worse than Pickett who got only two weeks.
The frustration is understandable as the AFL has once again looked after the big name stars. This time it’s Pickett and Franklin.

More to come shortly.

Good- but should have got more for his disgusting hit. If it was Toby who did that, no way would there be just a 3 week suspension

 

[GWS Goose]

We don't want that sort of thing getting into the game so I'm glad it was upheld.

 

[Adam Giant]

Deserved five weeks.
