It's not a good way to tune up for the finals, that's for sure.  I think I heard one of the commentators calls it, "bruise-free footy".

Tigers are trying to slow the game down most of the time and running out of options to move the ball forward.  I saw Pettard make three leads in a row that were ignored, then he turned his back on the play and just walked back into the 50, while the Bombers got the ball and ran it into their attacking half.  I hope the coach saw that one!

Haha pre malthouse definitely, but in all fairness they close it down now

 If  we can see it, the crowd can see it, the commentators can see it then it is probable that the opposition can see it when you hold the ball above your head as a signal to slow the play down.

Yeah true, can understand them not being 'on' for this game, just hope we have an injury free evening and blow out the cobwebs before next week. Better be ready for a massive increase in tempo.

Unfortunately its exactly this type of half arsed football which leads to injury, would not be surprised to see someone go down in the second half as a result.

Weird game to watch. No accountability/bruise free footy.
