    Credit to the Saints, they're going at things really hard.

    Agree with you regarding the running direction of Port mids Sedat.

    'stache I was thinking of your post on my way in when I heard of Boyd's treatment in the first few minutes of the game. It's amazing how poorly he is treated by the umpires. It's almost time for some comments to be made publicly by the coach and for him to write a "please explain" letter.

    I'd have been really happy with Wines. I'm happy with Jack, but I'd have been happy with Wines.

    They did . They'd be concerned by the amount of goals stkilda kicked over the back .

    It was like they were playing an offside trap. Wrong sport unfortunately.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    Re: Round 1 2016 Discussion

    Commentators shit me to tears. Dangerfield was two inches off shoving his finger into the chest of the umpire and an abusive and demonstrative fashion and Luke Darcy doesn't like a free kick 'in a tight game'. WTF has a close game got to do with it, and since when is the whole zero tolerance of aggressive behaviour out the window for good players.

    He should be suspended, Dangerfield was lucky the umpire stopped his momentum or he would have shoved his index finger into the umpires chest. I don't care who the player is or what time of the game it is of how close the scoreboard is.

    Has Darcy had a lobotomy? Because he sounding worse and worse every time I hear him.

    Had that happened on a rugby field he would have had hell to pay.

    Say what you want about Rugby Union as a sport but any sort of misbehavior towards a referee is absolutely is dealt with swiftly.

    Darcy has become excruciating to listen to. Really truly unbearable.

    Absolutely. I still can't believe Darcy was saying it wasn't a free kick. Let alone 50m, let alone reportable. If the AFL do nothing because he's a name player then local umpires will have hell to pay for it.

    Hodge has apparently broken his arm today and likely to miss 4 weeks.

    Good win to the Cats. They looked to have topped up nicely, not sure they have a good enough squad though for a flag push

    Geez, suddenly we get Hawthorn minus both Roughead and Hodge in round 3... I'm hopeful we can set up our season by the end of May.

    Re: Round 1 2016 Discussion

    Went along this afternoon, was a good contest and Dangerfield, along with Zac Smith were very impressive for the Cats.

    The Hawks looked very likely at 3/4 time but Geelong managed to control the game and lock it in their forward half really well in the last - it actually reminded me a bit of what we did yesterday.
