That's our measuring stick a whole list not only players but coaches, trainers, office staff etc unified as 1.

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
But a serious question, how can that team with all those very high paid players kick one goal in the first half and how could Leon Cameron not do nothing to stop the rot.
Then after half time, how could Leon Cameron not reset things or change things such that the players he had couldn't stop the bleeding and only score 2 goals.
Richmond being very good is part of the answer. But what of their players, their profile/high paid players, their onfield 'leaders' and their he'd coach and coaching box all combining to do effectively very little of impact all day is he'd scratching.

Soulless club. This may make them stronger but I hope it has the opposite effect.

Because their selfish captain made the team and coaching staff play with 1 hand tied behind their back. Keefe could have chopped out in the ruck, which they desperately needed. They even could have played shorter down back, dropped a cooked Mummy and played Keefe in ruck and gone for more midfield depth and running power at the selection table. They couldn't do anything because this clown declared himself fit.

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
We have a new term to add to the sporting vernacular.
If a player kicks 3 goals in a game, they have "kicked a GWS".
To add to 8 goals for a bag, 2 goals in soccer for a brace, 100 runs for a ton etc
And once a team passes 25 points for the rest of history, let's hope EVERY commentator in drops a line about said team passing the effort of the Giants in the 2019 Grand Final.

31 points - Riewoldt (5.1)
25 points - GWS (3.7)
24 points - Martin (4.0)
12 points - Lynch (2.0)
Maybe we are bit harsh on GWS, they're second on the tally board...

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
God I enjoyed watching that Plastic Franchise get completely embarrassed. That's top 3 in my AFL viewing experiences. Bloody fantastic.

Good luck to any bouncers that happen to cross Toby’s path tonight.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
Seriously I don’t think any team would have got near Richmond today, they were on and no one could have stopped it.
Bring back the biff

F**k these germs.
How would he know any better. He mollycoddles domestic violence abusers, adulterers and people who have done much worse to keep his job.
Yep, that's right, Cameron Ling mollycoddles the worst of the worst to keep his job. As does Bruce, and that makes them absolute detestable scumbags.
