I reckon I watched 10 minutes of the match last night. Don't remember the last time I stayed home on a Friday night and didn't watch the footy. Had people round for dinner so we had it on record. Went to bed at 3QT. Two drab clubs playing drab footy.

such a similar sight to drop off a quarter and let the other team in. I know the pain, but i also laugh because it's richmond and not us

Richmond are a finals contender in first halfs, then play wooden spoon footy in second halfs

Because it smashed Menadue and put him on the ground. Big bloke runs over small bloke and hurts him in the initial. I get the report, but it'll get thrown out.
The umpire has clearly guessed. Match day reports should be a thing of the past. They should just make a note of it to themselves if it's off the ball

I can't remember a shitter top four team than Port, and yet they've belted Fremantle and Hawthorn who both beat us by less than a goal. What a huge ******* pain. Their wins are against 18th twice, 17th, 16th, 14th, 12th (Sydney when they were shit), and 11th (Fremantle when they were even shitter), which again is more of an insult to us given we've lost to 17th, 15th (North), and 11th, and would already be sitting top 3 if we'd won just two of those games. Goodwin should be questioning how Hinkley is getting Port to not only turn up to those games but consistently belt the bottom teams (even if they can't do the same against the better teams).

When did Port play north?
Think he's confusing Norf with GC
Kind of - thought they'd played each of the bottom five teams, realised halfway through my post that they'd just played Brisbane twice, and forgot to edit what I'd already written. My point still stands though :p

Shaping up like one of the those down years where a team can sneak a premiership.
Was thinking that... with Gawn and Hogan back there's no real reason we couldn't sneak one this year, not because I think we're a premiership calibre team, but I'm not totally convinced on any side this year.

Carlton are bloody good defensively but the hardest thing to do in footy is to teach a team how to attack properly. Be interesting to see how we go against them, if we can get an early 4-5 goal break we 'should' be able to extend it as they'll have to stop their ultra defensive structure.
