    That's the most deliberate in the VFL/AFL history, including when it was ok. You know the fix is on when that doesn't get paid and Macrae has his head taken off and nothing again. The outcry on social media and afl journos/industry is working. We are getting screwed, and we are screwing ourselves, we don't need anymore against us.

        Hope that burns in our belly. We were the better team. We beat ourselves & let poor umpiring cost us.

              I am not going to blame the umpires, but the AFL have to rethink the bullshit deliberate business, it is spoiling the game.

                What rubbish from Channel 7, GWS cannot be thought of as a young team. In fact we were younger than them tonight with 74 av to their 89 games and a whole year on average in age.

                  Seriously. That phantom confusing 50m penalty was the difference in the last quarter. The ump blows his whistle and Wood is not looking at him after giving Patton way too much time. Seriously. In a tight game ump has no perspective.

                    I feel sick about that.

                    That's a game we should have never lost.

                      Why hasn't our goal kicking improved?

                      Question needs to be asked. It cost us the game and whilst I'm immensely proud we simply should have won. Very disappointing that we blew it.

                        Wasn't having a shot and held it for an eternity. The umpires use no common sense.

                          If that's the flag favourite, then we're not far off...

                          I'm comfortable with that...!

                            Got to wait for the ump to call. 3 paid against us tonight and very costly.

                              The umpire called Patton to move it on. That was a genuinely stupid thing for Easton to do. You can't move on the ball carrier until you hear the umpire call play on. It is AFL basics and not good enough to mess that up at such a crucial time.
                              TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.
