Non-Richmond games 2010

Two in a row travelling won't be easy for the bluebaggers

The Pies got done too today with Beams choking with his kick for goal . It'd be hilarious if they had peaked too early and they crash out in the finals. Now that'd be Collingwood tradition Eddie lol.

Hope so MT. The Skunks so desperately wanted to beat the Cats in Round 19 searching for that respect they feel is their right they may have forgotten that the Premiership is ultimately won in September.

Take into account the Saints are just travelling after their loss today and the Dogs are flu ridden injured and without any bones to chew on it seems at this stage its all falling into place for the Cats once again.

A real challenge may come from Hawthorn or Sydney? Both sides could easily make Prelims.

The doggies shocking run with injuries continues. Griffen looks like he done some sort of knee injury. You'd hope it's not a ACL for his sake.

You're right Tucky, there's a door now open for one of the non-top 4 to score a PF berth.

Was at the game, was shocked the stuffing umpires turned thier back on the shunks to let the Dawks back into the game.
How a player going for the mark in front of goals gets his head split open badly & fails to get the free kick is just pure bad umpiring.
l enjoyed the blood anyway  but this year has to be the worst l ever seen umpiring mistakes like they are betting on games.
Bad umpiring was what beat the Skunks. 2 very bad decision late in the game will surely have Eddie at AFL HQ this week

Reckon things are starting to fall into line... re Colliwobbles

Collingwood will smash Dogs, then play the winner of Hawthorn/Saints, which will be a very tough game.

Geelong should beat the saints and then have the survivor of Sydney/Carlton/Dogs which should be a relatively easy prelim on their way to another flag.

The skunks got beat fair and square, they had their chances and blew it.  I enjoyed it very much, the seeds of doubt have been sown for their annual epic fail.

Listening to North fans ringing in calling themselves the best of the rest and that their list is superior to ours and Melbourne's . As we know finishing ninth means stuff all come the following year and all it means now is North end up with crap picks despite no finals.

Jolly copped incidental contact as Jolly's snozz smacked into the arm of the Hawthorn player coming through going for ball. Correct call umpire .

[Tigermonk]

a broken nose & 2 huge black eyes is not incidental contact. That is a free kick all the time.
Any high contact to the head is a free kick.

[Chuck17]

And as Cotch found out sometimes even when you don't make high contact the MRP still deems it to be high contact

thats exactly right, These umpires are surely betting & controlling games.
Betting should be banned on all high profile sports

The bold bit is only if your name is Joel Selwood  . Cotch last week against the Saints and Jack this week both copped clear high contact and both didn't get a free  . In the Jolly incident, he and the Hawthorn player were both going for the ball as the ran in opposite directions towards each other. The Hawk player got there slightly ahead of Jolly and already had his outstretched arms up going for the ball when one arm went between Jolly's outstretched arms and collided with Jolly's face. It was incidental contact in a marking contact. The contact wasn't instigated by the Hawthorn player. The ump made the right call. Just because a player cops an injury doesn't automatically mean it's a free kick.

[Tigermonk]

only seen it Live & no replay yet, still got the horrors from looking at some of thier supporters  
Jake King's hand hit high & they never got a free kick Port    

[mightytiges]

Saints could pay for all those missed set shots. They were all over the Cats in the last 15 minutes of that first quarter. Geelong haven't been able to get it through the St Kilda forward press from the kick-ins.

[mightytiges]

Btw the top deck of the Southern Stand at the Richmond end looks near empty on the tellie  ???. The AFL needs Richmond in the finals if these other clubs can't pull a big crowd to a final.

once again an umpire has thought of his self to be bigger than the game and has robbed geelong of a great win.
