Re: AFL Game Day R9 2023
Good to see Geelong lose. Don't know anyone would have picked Richmond in the tipping

Re: AFL Game Day R9 2023
Gold Coast looked good against a very depleted West Coast.
They're very athletic and Humphrey was impressive.

Re: AFL Game Day R9 2023
Everyone might have over rated the Geelong victories.
The big wins were over Hawthorn West Coast and a severely depleted Sydney at Pork Barrel Park.
The decent teams were Essendon and Adelaide with Crows giving them a serious challenge even at Pork Barrel Park

So Fremantle bounce back from some sluggish form and beat the Swans, Port stick it to North by 70 points and Melbourne step on on the Hawks in the first quarter.
Between West Coast, Hawthorn and North we have some very noncompetitive teams in the competitive at the moment.

Re: AFL Game Day R9 2023
Look what Melbourne are doing to the Dawks? Wow! The top end of this comp is elite, it'll take an injury or 2 to get over teams like thos come September.
We can't beat teams like that, I reckon we'll have to arm wrestle West Coast to get a win as well.

Re: AFL Game Day R9 2023
Fremantle's form just makes our win over them all the more impressive, given they were starting to challenge us at times but we stifled them and escalated a few times throughout the game. Could turn out to be a season defining result, that one.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Re: AFL Game Day R9 2023
It just shows that no matter how good you are you can be picked apart even by the worst teams.
Melbourne might end up flogging them, but Hawthorn in my view are an easier team to overrun at the MCG vs. Docklands (especially if you haven't had two weeks away, and two of three in the wet) given the extra space to stretch their defence.

FREO was awarded 2 soft 50 m penalties which killed the swans
The frees were soft but the 50 m penatlies were just over umpiring in a technicality
#1. Ball throw back was not staight to the player
#2. Swans player was not standing on the mark correctly . Could not hear any whistle and was gun happy to award 50 m, instantly
. I find it hard now to watch afl games now with such putrid umpiring
Also the swans lost Mils which fas a huge factor

Given I didn’t see a second of this game but I’d expect the swans not only to win this one in Sydney umpiring or not.
