I was listening to Joe Rogans podcast today and they were talking about the NBA ref that is in jail for fixing games. He says it's rife in the NBA. With some of the absolute garbage we see in AFL you have to wonder. No mention of the shot clock there at all.

I will reserve my judgement on the crows till we play them in 16 days. I think they are incredibly getable but i just don't rate them maybe to my own detriment.
Hopefully it goes according to past scripts. They win big this week against a side that just did not turn up, media pumps them up. They win bigger next week against a nobody, the media pumps them bump to bursting point. Following week they are talked about as best ever, they go BANG.

The mark was paid by Razor Ray with EXACTLY 40 seconds to go on the clock - yet he is allowed to kick it after the siren! WTF??
Well at least we know now who the person responsible for the shot clock at AO barracks for. Remember the Dixon one that started when the ball was still in the crowd?

I was gonna say, the cards are falling for you guys to snag 2nd especially if GWS lose to Richmond in Melbourne which is a chance.
We've still got to win this week first. We've choked everytime a 3rd win in a row has been possible, against several top 8 sides, and whenever a chance all year has opened up for us to put ourselves in a good spot on the ladder.

We're far from a certain thing tomorrow. In fact I'd have Melbourne as favourites.

I keep hearing yelling from the living room and then it occurred to me, the crows are very frightened of a geelong/Dangerfield comeback. You could tell from the first quarter that crows would win but that has warmed the cockles of my heart they can't enjoy it during the game. I am a little bit evil.
