Interesting to see how the China game sides come back after the trip away and some time off
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

OMG how the *!*!*!*! does Selwood still get those high free kicks where he lifts the elbow and drops the knees? It's a disgrace. Every time he goes near the ball the umpire finds a free kick for him somehow.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

Watching as a neutral, the favouritism to the cats at home is blindingly obvious. An unbelievably soft free to Danger.

There's been no more obvious BS than the stone cutters paying Homer Simpson the Royal Sampler. If you watch that episode, turn up the volume on it and you can hear Cameron Ling saying '100% there, he's just so tough and brave, he does things that other just can't do. That's a Royal Sampler every time'.

Awfully generous of us to give Harry Taylor a nice send-off last week before he returned to his putrid best tonight

I couldn't get my head around Selwood being tackled for about 5 minutes and the ump calling play on .
Harry Taylor FFS ! Can't get near it this week .

Re: AFL Round 10, 2017 Discussion
I actually think it will take vigilante justice to pull Selwood and every sychophant who indulges him into line.
Whilst I don't usually condone violence, some people really stepping over the line when he's awarded a free kick that no other player would receive, for a good six week to two month stretch is what's required.
You know, everyone on the opposing team goes completely mental and physically attacks him in a sustained way when he gets away with his crap and the situation turns into a farce until things finally turn around.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

We are well and truly overdue for a Selwood free kick aren't we?

Or just some blatant free kicks not called for the opposition.

No Geelong player can EVER be pinged for holding the ball apparently

Re: AFL Round 10, 2017 Discussion
Geelong throw it more than all teams combined and don't get pinged for it. The sook Scott's public angst about it has worked really well for them.

Re: AFL Round 10, 2017 Discussion
These umpires are just cheating now. Hawkins threw it straight up in the air and what do you know play on.

It's a form of cheating. There line ball calls, but week after week they get dodgy ones, don't get done for throwing or HTB. Get the too highes dropping knees etc. It's hard to conclude its anything other than cheating.
