Beer was cold. Before and after the game.And in important news - how was the pub?
Wife already offered to send me up. I don't think I can justify it - I'd much rather watch one of the teams flog a third party.How you gonna go next week mate ? Win win ? Haha
I know the feeling haha. It's actually quite tough especially finals being a dual supporter

Yes, I was a little bit harsh. I was just sick of the disrespect so many Dogs supporters show towards our club.
Review from my favourite AFL media https://themongrelpunt.com/afl/2019/09/08/eliminationgwsdogs.
I love writing about this bloke, simply because no one else does! Jacob Hopper is the best young contested ball player in the league that you never hear about. I hate saying dumb things like this, as I reckon it devalues the Giants somewhat, but if he were playing for Carlton or Collingwood, commentators would be falling all over themselves to heap praise on him. Maybe it’s time they started paying attention to the kid in orange and charcoal in the same way they do to Tim Kelly or Sam Walsh. His 26.7 touches per game has them both covered for disposals, and his 14.1 contested touches does the same in that category. Teaming with Tim Taranto, they could the best one-two midfield punch under 23 years old in the league. Love the game of Tim Taranto. Often overlooked (just like Hopper… there seems to be something about GWS mids), he is such a complete package. He had 28 touches at 82% efficiency, ten score involvements, seven clearances, 11 inside 50s and five tackles… and the five tackles would be considered pretty low for him.
This is not ideal. But unfortunately very true. I have said it multiple times throughout the year

I see one reference to "plastics"? I guess that's "some", but there were more people calling out a user calling GWS last week than total uses of "plastic".I'm a little surprised to see some Brisbane supporters on their board running with the "plastics" and "no supporters" cards.
Thought a team from a non traditional AFL state may be a bit more understanding
Obviously not
Let's smash these Lionesses
Sorry Dlanod

Yaaaaaaaasaasssssssssssssss!!!!
Yeah it was there... giants chants were played over the pa. Personally I thought it was a bit lame but I think we need it to encourage our often quiet observer crowds to get loudWhere did this s#*t about crowd noise over the PA cone from? I read it in the main board game day thread when I got home. I know I’m getting old and slightly hard of hearing but there was no crowd noise through the PA that I heard. The “make some nnoooiiissseee” videos on the scoreboard got a bit annoying but we were loud without the help of the PA.
But hey, Truth vs Narrative. We’re not winning that one I suppose
BTW, I am enjoying the saltiness of (most) Doggies' supporters comments across various threads on BF. Their tears, excuses and s**t-throwing is a joy to behold. Ferals. (Apologies to the small percentage of Doggies' supporters who have shown class in their balanced comments - you deserve respect.)
I was on the sunny side wing for the game and there were two different chants that came over the speaker system.Where did this s#*t about crowd noise over the PA cone from?

If you need a lift anytime, go have a peek at the Doggies board. It’ll lift your spirits. Hey, honest question... did ‘The Bont’ play yesterday?
They are not even showing the Incident. There doesn't seem to be media video.Toby going to the tribunal.
I’m sure he’ll get the same consideration as Bont.
