    I could live with our players doing that. I'm not watching the game, but that sounds very impressive.

    Watched the last 5 minutes, GAJ was good with the holding the ball free leading to the goal, and again in hitting up Wright.

    Great result for us. Push WCE down, and hopefully finish ahead of North to give us a tiny better upgrade.

    GCS won that by accident. All of their efforts seemed to be focused on losing that game. Their skill level is deplorable, some of the errors by hand and foot were just insane.

    WCE look impotent without Kennedy.

    Ablett leads the league in i50s per game this season, gets 12 contested possessions a game, 5.5 tackles and a goal assist every game. He is still going AOK.

    Best bit about the game was that Josh Hill had no problem kicking 2 goals from the back of the square in the last, but couldn't make the distance from 40m to win it.

    Eagles fans must be disgusted in themselves turning up every week and having to "support" the likes of Hill, Le Cras and Darling. Pitiful downhill skiers the lot of them.

    It's win-win. Either Richmond gets cruelled again or spud head Scott loses another close one.

    It's like the Kangaroos had a couple of cheeky dry martinis at half time. Their decision making is impaired.

    Finey just had a go at Josh Hill. Mentioned how he kicked 2 Joe the goose goals over the top but when he had the chance to finish the game, he couldn't.
    Said he was surprised West Coast are still playing him.
    For those who were always the underdogs and wore it as a badge of honour.

    We should send Finey a link to the eker thread.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
