2021 AFL Finals Series

Re: 2021 AFL Finals Series

They need to send a message and we know you can’t touch an umpire, 6 weeks feels about right

Should hear Riewoldt and Brown slowing down footage saying he hardly touched him and shouldn't be suspended. If he gets off it's a serious black eye on the AFL.

Have to say AFL media is probably the worst I've ever seen in world sport.
Maybe NRL is as bad. But it's a very low bar.

English lost confidence
The mids lost confidence in him
Then they lost confidence in themselves
The Bruce injury completely threw out our fwd structure.

Without Bruce who was our only regular goal kicker we look threadbare in attack with little attempt to consider other options.

Razor is so techical with his frees. He expects every player in every contest to be a robot and be very precise.

And is abusive with his power when speaking (down) to them.

I am very anti what Greene did today and I am also anti how Razor speaks to the players. Need a much thinker line between players and umpires.

Toby Greene can't help but be a dickhead.

He should get a couple of weeks for umpire contact.

The contact itself is only half the problem.

No player shimmy be approaching an umpire like that at the break. Captain or not.

Stevic is standing still. Greene is walking in a straight line and he VERY clearly steps towards him to make the contact.

This is a massive test, for Michael Christian, the Tribunal, the league and the Giants themselves.

So to win the Premiership.

We will need to win a game in consecutive weeks in:

Tasmania
Queensland
South Australia
Western Australia

Including two games against home teams with crowds without our supporters being able to travel to attend. Mission impossible x 100. It makes 2016 look like a cakewalk.

2 of those would be neutral. We beat Port at AO this season. No doubt, very difficult but if we are good enough. Can be a lot of pressure on the home side in a prelim. Sides with true home state advantage are 0-3 over last 3 years.

Again, very hard but my main doubts revolve about how poorly out of form we are, rather than the trips.

I agree. If we click, we can get it done.

Competition much? Seriously that's just an impossible feat.

The good news is:
1) If we get past Essendon, we play two teams we know we can beat. Mcstay out is a big bonus too.
2) Port’s final demons will still be fresh and present. The break is not part of a teams routine and I am not sure sitting around with too much time on their hands is actually the best thing for them. They will also risk two blokes with dodgy knees (Georgiadis and Fantasia) which could backfire spectacularly.
3) There is a bye after the Prelim
4) We are a team that seems more suited to being backs to the wall. Maybe Bevo has better speeches filled with better left-field metaphors when we are the hunter, rather than sitting on top of the table in pole position.

Re: 2021 AFL Finals Series

No doubt it’s gunna be hard…very hard in fact, but while we are still breathing finals, there is at least some chance.
Essendon is the first hurdle. We can worry about the others come 6pm if need be.

Believe we can do it. No more second chances for other teams. Here comes the doggies
