Last night and today probably couldn't be much further from each other in terms of game quality.

Collingwood have been really impressive, and looked like they were about to blow the game open until those last couple of goals.

Love pies fans and their short memories. All my pies fans friends going on how disrespectful the Essendon fans where by booing post game awards, seem to forget the time they booed the hell out of Nick Riewoldt when he took the stage at the GF parade in 2010

I'm watching the game on replay

Matthews- "you know what they say about missed tackles, if you miss a tackle it only takes 1 for a class player to use it"

Aye?
Legit I hate most special comments guys, they are rubbish ex-footballers who can't put two words together. The ones I actually listen to are King (Even though he is a huge flog), Lloyd and Bartel.

I could care less about their personalities. David Kings ability to use stats and compile vision is miles above any one else in the AFL world.

Heppell elbows Maynard. Maynards a rough bastard so nothing happens. Plenty o other blokes fall over click their heels and the commentators talk about how violent it is
In an era where everyone is flopping, Maynard is a beacon of light.

Seriously, isn't there a rule where the ump can award a free against someone for taking a dive? Or is it just a fine from the match review committee? I reckon Oliver and Gawn might have to have a "diving fund" handy if the rule was actually enforced.

Yeah Maynard did want I thought any normal man should do and wanted retribution. Way too many soft campaigners now

In the NHL they fine people for even a hint of a dive. If you get done 3 times it's a fine and a ban for the coach aswell. Called embellishment. You ******* rarely see diving in hockey but the AFL doesn't give a **** about it.
