Round 1 Discussion

Re: Round 1 Discussion

I am getting so sick of how GWS get looked after by the AFL and the umpires. Bugg has just king hit Riewoldt from behind and somehow it's a 50 metre penalty and a free kick to GWS. If the AFL want to completely destroy the integrity of the competition to look after their *!*!*!*!ing lovechild then that's their lookout, but enough already.

GWS are nothing more than whiney bitches and the AFL are making a farce of the competition in order to justify the stupid amounts of money they have spent on them.

They're nothing more than a pack of cheap shot artists. I loved how Bruce squared it up on Bug. Sadly Bruce will getbthe only punishment, nothing will happen to Bug at all.

It looked a cheap shot live, and they really are a bunch of upstarts .

Re: Round 1 Discussion

Leigh Matthews just said Higgins was "not good at defending" and shouldn't ve been played back because of that.

Just reporting the news.

Crows very impressive. Will be a hard side to beat, particularly at home.

But they must notice the bloke laying on the ground.

Riewoldt spends more time lying down than standing up. Any body contact and he acts like he's been in a car accident

Re: Round 1 Discussion

Bugg is fast becoming a recidivist when it comes to cheap shots, both physical and verbal.

Ironically he was moved to defence because of his lack of defence in the forward line. I saw he's still pointing and yelling, that'll be popular for about 10 minutes, but hey at least he's showing leadership

Don't go there Grey. I see Norf have once again embraced the Shinboner narrative .
Could they make up their minds ? Pretty awful effort from a much hyped premiership hopeful

I suppose "do as I say, not as I do" is a 'form' of leadership... They've got 4 years to get used to it.

He is the MJP-Jong debate. His skills are there, but aptitude for doing the hard yards isn't.

Re: Round 1 Discussion

Did I read that Griffen had 15 possessions and Tom Boyd had 11 possessions and a goal?...

Off to a MUCH faster start than I'd anticipated...!

His skills are overrated in my opinion. It might be because he chooses to purely get the easy touch, but his damage by hand and foot is average. If it was pound for pound his skill vs Jong's hardness it'd be line ball, but Jong's biggest asset is elite foot speed, something Higgins seriously lacks.

Griffen got sat on by Weller and apparently Weller did a good job. Weller kept him on a tight leash.

Griff tended to struggle against a solid tag.

Fair point.
