Hard not to feel gravely ill watching Team Plastic acquit themselves like this.

I've just see the worst interpretation of holding the ball ever paid against Rampe. That's the most specific and excellent example of why the game is fundamentally screwed.

Of course this has become normal. If the ball is caught underneath a player he will be pinged, regardless of how it got there.

Cameron had some quarter. He was in everything.

You can be ridden into the ground like a rodeo bull, only for the ball to end up underneath you with your jockey holding it to you and get penalised.

Makes sense, and importantly, makes the game a lot better.

Stevie Johnson two or three weeks? With his bad record, Kennedy off with concussion after being sniped.

He'll get 1 week - cannot possibly get off but won't get multiple weeks and potentially miss a GF. They will win this so 1 week will do the job nicely.

I've found the recent hype around Sydney confounding. One of the commentators said they've clearly been the best side in it this year, even though they won the same amount of H&A games as two other opponents, and only two more games than an injury riddled seventh placed side.

Today they've shown a reasonably soft underbelly. Keep Franklin away from goals and hit their midfield hard, and there's not a lot that's fantastic about them.

There's basically little difference between about seven teams .
GWS have matched them in the contest and flogged them on the outside .
Sydney's lack of run is very noticeable, and this arena suits GWS perfectly

Giants looked good. Play similar to us, but have a more reliable forward in Cameron.

Sydney were exposed for outside run.

If the AFL hold it there then the whole integrity of the game is shot to pieces.

I doubt there will be any empty seats - pretty easy for Bulldog or Hawk fans to get to Sydney and fill the joint with REAL AFL fans. It'll be like an away game for the AFL's love child. And it wont be Thursday night!!!!!
