AFL Game Day R2 - 2024

I think Papley was right to be honest.
Sydney didn’t get sucked in and won the game.
Just a question what will happen to Cloke ?
Runners are supposed to run out give instruction and run off , should be nowhere near the play.
A fine ? A few weeks off ?

That was bizarre and something that should not be encouraged, he should not have been anywhere near that.

Thoroughly fascinating to hear Scott defend Wright as a pure 'ball player' against a backdrop of him goading his charges to play with more of an 'Essendon edge'.

Papley said there was ?no love lost? between the Swans and Bombers and described Essendon coach Brad Scott?s mantra of playing on the edge as a ?facade?.
?They really gave it to us. Brad Scott came out and said they want to have that Essendon edge and Peter Wright took it a bit too far,? Papley told 3AW.
?They were still getting into us. You can be tough and do all that stuff, but you?ve still got to be able to play four quarters.
?They were hitting us behind the play and things like that. They?re trying to do that stuff and I don?t know if it?s them or not.
?Brad Scott came out and said it?s the Essendon way, but ? anyway I won?t go into it.
?You can pretend to be tough, but you?ve still got to win the ball and win the game.
?It?s all a facade I think, but anyway.?

Yeah Sydney players never hit players behind play...just like they always seem to be screwed by the umpires in Grand Finals.

Hypocrites!!!

Dunkley definitely didn't give Hird a black eye in the prelim in 96, that's for sure.

7000+ days of Essendon edge, and counting

Tigers are a bit of suprise that they taking it up to Port. I thought they would get smashed.

Fair effort by Travis Boak to get to 350 games. Such a shame it has been overshadowed by Nick Daicos and his amazing milestone in the same round.

Ha.

The boy from Torquay is a gem. Would have loved him our team.

I wonder if there's anyone in the league or following that doesn't like Boak?

Honestly a pretty shocking look for Nick Hind here, missed with the attempted elbow but that should have been months off for legitimately throwing an elbow strike if he had hit.
