[Coaster2012]

Liked: Geelong and Collingwood losing.
Learnt: I know nothing. We all know nothing.
Hated: I'm not one to bag on umpires because there are others that do it enough for all of us, but that Westhoff 50m penalty was horrendous.

 

[mike123]

Learnt: taller players have an advantage against smaller players in marking contests.

 

[Le Grille]

Liked - Nothing
Hated - Everything
Learned - Zorko could dive for Australia

 

[dean33]

Liked - the jack Tom combo is going to be quite the handful for opposition defences, especially when you throw dusty down there.

Learnt - Unlike 2018 we might just be timing our run to perfection.

Hated- the end to the north lions game.

 

[Stopher]

Liked- Conor's solo. Such a unique player and would be fast becoming a headache for opposition to work out.

Learnt- West Coast and Richmond looking ominous. Getting the bulk of their best teams together at the right time of year.

Hated- So much said about the free at the end of the Bris v North game, but the Westhoff 50 was every bit as atrocious. 'Razor' Ray has had to assume a number of different things to justify that decision, despite on face value the player performing a perfectly acceptable act.

 

[Bastyy]

Liked: Andrew Brayshaw, GWS, Saints under Ratten, Reilly O'Brien carrying my Fantasy side

Learnt: Richmond and WC should be premiership favourites, injuries the only thing stopping eagles from going B2B, Dockers still have some chance of making finals, Hawthorn will be top 4 next year

Hated: SA Teams, Umpiring

 

[M Malice]

Loved- The Big O and Leigh Fisher.

Learnt- This years flag is wide open.

Hated- Whining about umpires.

 

[freddy mercury]

Learnt that Collingwood are incredibly slow. Richmond are coming

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

I wish the Eagles were getting their best team together Just last week we lost Nic Nat and Cripps, the week before Duggan, dunno when Hutchings is back and who knows if Gov and Hurn will play this week Kennedy is in poor form too. We played something like 8 or 9 players with less than 50 games experience vs Melbourne.

Richmond are looking ominous I'll grant you that!

 

[mike123]

Learnt that Collingwood are incredibly slow. Richmond are coming

You only learnt that now?

 

[Do the Dew]

Liked: Geelong and Collingwood losing.
Learnt: I know nothing. We all know nothing.
Hated: I'm not one to bag on umpires because there are others that do it enough for all of us, but that Westhoff 50m penalty was horrendous.

Agreed, it was. But's let conveniently leave out the Gawn htb decision that helped ice the game your way huh

Absolutely appalling decision.

 

[Coaster2012]

How did I conveniently leave it out? It's not something I learnt, liked, or hated so why on Earth would I include it you numpty?

 

[DontArgue4]

Liked: Tigers showing some great signs, Lynch is finally training twice a week and his recent form is showing that. Jack started looking more dangerous also this week.

Learnt: The lions are legit, dons depth is better than advertised

Hated: Ridiculous call against Thompson at the end of the North v Lions game, shocker. Jarman Impeys injury, looked nasty.

 

[MCG-Unit]

Liked: Lyons, O'Brien, Marshall

GWS Giants, Brisbane Lions & WC Eagles wins. Loved Saints over WB media darlings ->

Learnt: There are Giants in the land

Disliked: Umpiring in general Losing the free kick count by about 10 & inconsistency

 

[00Stinger]

Hated- Whining about umpires.

No suprise that your team was the one who won a game off the back of poor, no make that horrendous umpiring

 

[pazza]

Liked: Carlton under Teague. Sign him up now. Has them going well.

Learned: Richmond's tall forwards may just be the best in the comp when they combine.

Hated: Impey's knee.

 

[M Malice]

No suprise that your team was the one who won a game off the back of poor, no make that horrendous umpiring

Yep, that was the only umpiring mistake in that game according to most apparently. Result should have been overturned and the Kangas awarded the points as they obviously would have gone on to win it, the fix was in, time for a royal commission.

 

[Chinacats]

Liked: some nice hangers this week.
Learned: cats are squibs
Hated: cats are squibs

 

[Asapartyhat]

Liked - Trager Park AFL in the Northern Territory.Not just because we won(we being the Eagles) but the whole vibe the feel of the place Melbourne have done a good service to the AFL being a national league thing with that.
Learned - not a lot changed this week
Hated -North Melbourne being dudded.They will be hard to beat next game.

 

[00Stinger]

that free kick didn't have an impact on the result?

 

[M Malice]

that free kick didn't have an impact on the result?

Off course it did as did numerous other free kicks during that game and in every game that has ever been played. As I've said before IMO the free kick was a mistake... and nobody has any idea how it would have impacted the result, IMO we would have still went on the win, in others opinion the Kangas would have.

What would you like the Lions to do, knock back the 4 points and forfeit the game?

Well not spit, pinch and dive would be a good start

 

[M Malice]

Well not spit, pinch and dive would be a good start

Or punch and snipe like Cunners, or take cheap shots like Sympkin, or dive like sidshow Bob.

Sorry I didn't realize that the Kangas were the Mother Teresa's of the afl.
