thought we might have had a bye or something...no such luck, with Heeney out for the season I cant see us improving, annoyingly we'll be relying on papley even more than we have too which could piss him off even more and so i expect another tranfer request

Pissing rain though.
It does seem that the only time you ever find space is on the counter. If you can't move the ball quickly and efficiently in that 10-20 second period then it becomes exponentially harder to progress.
I'm not sure what the solution is though, other than some sort of netball-esque 'zones' system.
it's coaching as well.
sending everyone up the Ground to stop the other team scoring at all costs, and minimising any risk is just killing teh spectacle.
True. I think the easiest potential solution is to limit interchange rotations. You'd hope more tired legs in the second half means less flooding and more space to exploit.

I think the shorter quarters as well are contributing to the game not opening up due to lack of fatigue ,
Coaches are setting up defensive structures they are able to maintain throughout
It’s a weird season , really lacking the usual passion here in Melbourne

lad got some big boots to fill

Wow. Just watched the last 2 minutes of Port v Blues. Great finish.
Port down by 4 points with just over a minute and Grey misses an easy snap metres from goal. Blues kick in and then port get ball back and Grey marks in the pocket with 15 seconds to go. Siren goes, tight angle. Nails it. Redemption and game over.
Gray's match-winner breaks Blue hearts after the siren
Robbie Gray boots a goal after the final siren to give Port Adelaide a three-point win over Carlton

And if we don’t win tomorrow night against the Crows the season will be officially over and I will not watch another game.

Richmond lost about 7 premiership players , played a bunch of kids ( mind you fairly good ones, they are VFL premiers ) and funnily enough ,through their enthusiasm to impress , its improved them for now

Gold Coast v Dogs in awful conditions is a low scorer but it's bloody good. Ball is up and down the field.

I think we’ll see if the umpires are influenced by crowd noise tonight in this Saints v Port clash 😉

What a win. Two Adelaide teams in 6 days in Adelaide. Least the night wasn’t completely ruined!

that was big. Saints are going well, and Carlton sacking Ratten all those years back looks worse and worse all the time.
A big multi was ruined by the Hawks being suddenly appallingly bad, how do you lose to Sydney?
Lions were lucky yesterday to beat @shark 's boys. We just stopped playing in the 4th, and that's dangerous.
Great news as Cairns looks like getting an AFL hub. Two clubs based here, and 3 games played.
