First three years of the stand rule and the first time the minor premiers have won the flag in three consecutive years. :shh
Pure coincidence methinks.

23-8 last night

Nothing has changed
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do

Nothing has changed

To make it worse breakdown per qtr

1st = 3
2nd = 4
3rd = 1
4th = 0

That's ridiculous

Don't expect it to change against the AFLs love child.

We'll again be royally reamed.

Honestly the club has to act on these numbers and do it publicly so we know we're not taking this anymore

That umpire who paid that against Broad should be sacked

What's going to happen chuck? We will probably get down on all fours and accept whatever they say

Hardly their fault we lost but they stepped in just in time to kill any slight chance we may have had of a miracle comeback... :shh

Only good thing about this is it happened to the Pies.

But seriously, what's the point of having the ARC if it doesn't check things like this. Even in soccer the VAR checks the lead up play to a goal.

They take long enough as is, let’s not get them checking other plays as well.

Just when you think they can't get any worse they manage to find a whole new level to sink to..... :banghead

To me it is just so obvious we are getting shafted severely for the last 5 years, tbh, I am done with it, the media is biased against us as well. They always come up with crap like “ that was a luv my free kick” if we ever do get one.
I thought it was me and I was biased,

I wish some uni nerd would do a phd on it and hopefully prove me wrong/ or right.
