Tears of joy over Tex's performance.Why is Petrenko crying?
Umpiring was awful both ways, I've said it before and I'll repeat it, the holding the ball rule needs to be sorted. It's a disgrace how the person who wants the ball can be penalised so regularly.
Stand by it.The holding the ball/incorrect disposal situation in the AFL at the moment is an absolute farce.
How did it work out for NRL when they used the system years ago? Now 50 of the last 52 preliminary finalists in the AFL have finished in the top 4.Traditionalists advocating an old style top four finals system for each of the major codes currently feeling vindicated.
I sense the Melbourne-based AFL media are going to be pretty nauseating this week.How did it work out for NRL when they used the system years ago? Now 50 of the last 52 preliminary finalists in the AFL have finished in the top 4.
Again, think the rest will be massive, two tough games to take the legs out of their opposition. Even though Adelaide have an 8 day break, the difference in class will tell, and the Pies have had to work very hard tonight to get the points. Only their good record against the Swans - and their group has proven to be very resilient in the past, under a different coach - makes me think that they could get up. Still tipping the Swans though.
