AlexRRR Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 suck that up Ross you Toss. I guess you will be looking at another team now to coach. you are wahed up Ross and the Dockers window is almost closed At least they've got a window chooka BTW, your boy Zac Dawson had another great game after toweling up Tippett. he would probably be captain at your club now hahahahaha......lets not let you pick the team chooka.

farmerjo Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Well i've sobered up a bit now Was gutted had a storm come thru and lost power for the night. After a bit of ginning around got to listen to last 15 minutes on the radio. As espected,i'm over the moon except for just listening to Brad Scotts interview saying were supremely confident as no other sides left has beaten us this year. Those sort of comments can lead to getting a belting. The other game was great but shows that high pressure intensity can take it out of you and the dockers simply ran out of steam. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt his husband Brad Scott will seek an appeal on the basis that it wasn't Harvey in the contest but a streaker that ran on the field and took out Selwood http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-09-15/mrp-full-statement-semifinals EDIT: To add the link...

Will27 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 With his loading, he was lucky to only get a week I think. Got charged with negligent conduct. <deleted>! I reckon it was reckless not negligent every day of the week. Negligent is just that. Running at a bloke, leaving the ground, collecting him in the head and splitting him open is reckless.

I've got no problems with Harvey getting done as it was nowhere near the ball. But jeez,Zack Dawson gives a good old fashioned roundhouse and its deemed ok. This must send a very clear picture from the mrp for the rest of the finals. Lead with your fists,not your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not think there was anything in the Harvey bump. One week was one week too much. It opens up pretty easily where Selwood got knocked and you get a lot of blood from the spot. I'd rather see the MRP come down heavy on staging. They had their chance this year and failed. It will be worse next year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmerjo Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 As we have a few swans supporters on board(and others interested),would be interested on your take off where it will be won and lost. For me the obvious is Franklin has a habit of kicking big bags against us. In my eyes,its about stopping mcviegh and his mates rolling off the back of packs on the half back line, Weather conditions may play apart.Would like to see man on man football as a loose in defence will only help the swans. 16 goals should be enough to win it.Either way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The type of rule change drawn by a committee of Lawyers and Insurance companies. Both Fyfe and Harvey's contact was accidental, and even after 20 replays you can't see any intention to knock the head. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'I don't think the Swans have been at their peak the last two Games. Against Richmond there was no incentive. They still dint look fully on against Freo. Buddy's two goal s against Freo solidified the momentum in Sydney's favor and It would be good to see him have that role again. It depends also where Tippet, TReid, Goodes start the game. Tippet has been quiet the last two games, but he has been dong ruck work. I'm okay with him dragging a defender away from the goals. Goodes needs to mark the ball and stop the staging. Reid, it seems apparent he is being used in the role LRT was filling. Ruck/forward/defence. makes it easier to have that role when subbing a player, as you can sub a big man and move Reid into the position, r, but fark me! He has to kick some goals! Sydney will not want North to be able to find too much space and run with ball into the 50. The key for me will be Sydney's defence. Malceski is an important player and he will be missed if not fit. Rampe, only his second year is already solid. Bird as a defensive midfielder, Nick Smith, the ever solid Grundy and Shaw. Sydney's defence is also very good at forcing opposing teams to go wide when they enter the 50, reducing their ability to goal from the set shot North have a lot of goal kicking options, but some of North's play can be driven by confidence, so when they are shut down it can be an issue for them. Also, North (even last week) can get a big lead and then in a blink of an eye let it slip away. Anyway, i'll have my Red Rocks and some Cider on ice at hand. Things could get loud here, swearing a given 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've given it a pretty decent run over the last couple of days, whilst it's a head clash, it's the fact that Boomer left his feet to affect the hit. Had Boomer stayed on the ground his head would've knocked Selwood well below the shoulders (probably around his stomach) and probably a more effective bump truth be told. Rubbing Boomer out will free up K Jack (as that would be predicted match up) and gives the Swans some extra push. Hopefully the Tribunal uphold the 1 match and ban him for an additional week for being a <deleted>! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie really loathes Sydney...mainly its success I feel. also distracts from his own lack of success at Collingwood with teams and players who could have deliver a lot more than they did. Either way it is boring hearing him harp on about it. I dont like he or Derm or their opinions. Good they are on that show together so it can be avoided Sydney did get a free pass with Barry Hall. I seem to remember them getting lucky with Tony Lockett also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets cleared judging by the direction the jury have been given by the chairman David Jones. Jones recalls recent Steve Johnson case with Scott Thompson and says "things are not always as they appear". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
