3 recent flags but the Cats are nearly as broke as Brisbane. Why?

Geelong are shit, go all right when they are allowed to play their front running game but put under pressure by the 12th ranked side and they cracked up like Humpty Dumpty.

Without Lonergan their back line can't even handle a Yank, Henderson towelled up by a kid and Taylor as per usual showing that if he aint playing the Dusting Fletcher, 'I play on the worst forward' role he aint got much stopping power.

Hawks are easily the superior team over the period.

4 flags, 3 in a row easily makes the Hawks the best performed side. How many sides in history have 3 peated? Its extremely rare, Geelong could not even manage back to back.
You have some very valid points there.

Geelong wins: "We're steaming towards the Premiership! I'm so excited!"
Geelong loses: "The game's corrupt anyway, this'll be my last year following footy."
Lol, I've been saying the game's corrupt long before Saturday... It helps when you know people.

PS: Nice to see some ring in Pies supporters up and about. Reminds me of all the times Hawthorn were good. ;)

It's not corrupt ... The reason the umpiring has lost the plot is Wayne Campbell has been told to direct umpire decision making on keeping the game moving.

That means that they no longer adjudicate to a consistent set of rules.

So you can drop it, throw it, duck and dive but no tackles will be paid if that means stopping the game.

It's why the Dogs are benefiting the most because that's how they play anyway.
Campbell is working with GWS now. He left about 6-7 weeks ago. Luke Ball is the one there now ******* everything up.

It's utter insanity ... Thanks for the kind update. The umpiring has never been worse. It's at the point where the AFL need to bring in independent contractors to review and provide a new strategy.

This cannot continue ...
