Came on to make the same comment thinking it might have been buried in an earlier page...but yes 77000 v our exact same time sam opponent 95000. Whole bays empty at their end and gaps everywhere. Think we can say we have gone past them.
 
Colonwood fans were all out on the town doing burgs n deals while people were distracted, trying to scrape together enough shekels for their Grand Final tickets.

So the AFL say the goal was touched, but the ARC still called it correctly........

"The AFL acknowledges that upon review the ball looks to have been touched by GWS Giants player Lachie Keeffe," the statement read.
"In determining a decision, the reviewer must be clearly satisfied that there is sufficient evidence beyond reasonable doubt to overturn a decision.
"On this occasion, the reviewer at this time was not convinced the ball was touched beyond reasonable doubt to intervene the match and overturn the decision of the umpire.
“This is (in) line with the correct process for a silent review."


This is beyond a joke

*smile* joke. Who is in charge of the goal review?
Balls up from the start.

What a laugh.
 
Pity that result in the Prelim, as Collingwood miss the opportunity to extend their lead in the Most Grand Final Losses Stakes!

Very, very long time before that becomes an issue.

The leaderboard:

Collingwood: 27
Essendon: 14
Carlton: 13

How long do you think it will take Essendon or Carlton to even reach enough Grand Finals, let alone lose them all.
Amazing to think Collingwood have as many as the next two combined.

I did say “extend their lead”!

Collingwood have absolute supremacy at Choking, they know no peer.
