Seriously? Scores level. Final. Minute to go. Dodgey ruck free, which are a raffle. Basicly decided the game.

Its not a dodgy ruck free. Its paid every time that 1 ruck stops the other from jumping and then doesn't touch the ball.

Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean its dodgy. THEY ARE THE BLOODY RULES.

Great game of finals footy with both sides taking their turns in control.
The Doggies will be physically and emotionally stuffed next week but hope they can provide a decent contest for TV viewers anyway.

Really? You're telling me the rules now?
Minute to go, scores level, Dodgey ruck free, which is what my pop and dad call any ruck free, whether we get it or not. Game sense? Occation? Fair dinkum posh, it doesn't get paid in that situation.

Don’t know why so many supporting the dogs. Can’t stand them since Libba’s old man scratched Knighter’s face to bits. Get the best run with the umpires in the AFL.
I’ll be supporting Port next week. Feral fans but they play a Richmond brand of footy imo
Brisbane very unlucky tonight, this site would be lighting up if we copped what they did.
No fan of the dogs but the real dogs are in SA. No way I’m ever supporting those ferals.

Fearing a Port v Geecheat GF.
Melb will smack Geelong.
The other prelim is 50-50 and whoever wins it will have a big show, cause the Dees could crumble under their own pressure. It’s a big monkey on the back and they’ve had a lot of time to think about it. That’s why it worked for the Doggies and us in 16 & 17...it came in a whirlwind very late.

Seems a bit elephant in the room. No replay. Commentators haven't spoken of it
Hard to feel sorry for them. Remember how they worked us over off the ball when they beat us this year, and we got pinged for reciprocating? I'm assuming there was a bit going on that the main camera didn't capture.

You mean like they also don't pay ridiculous OOTF in the last few minutes, oh hang on, they did, they paid that one against Daniel.

You realise the last 2 scores for Brisbane were both rubbish too. The OOTF from Daniel, then Bailey picks the ball up 45m out and kicks from 20m out without bouncing it.

But but theatre.

This is the problem, with AFL, people want to complain about frees, and then when they actually pay them you say, but but theatre.

I know you've complained about umpiring this year and yet you are now happy to ignore the rules when a clear free is paid (it wasn't dodgy, it was a clear block) just because of you know.....theatre.

Which one is it? Do you want the umps to pay the frees when they are there or not?

So you're saying the umps don't need game sense? First 10 minutes of round 1, last 5 minutes of a gf with a kick in it, same?

I was there. One of my worst times at the footy ever.
