This was our home game, is this a terrible crowd?
Huge game for both teams, yes a school night and apparently trains not working on one line
However surely we could have got this to 35k for a home game
Do the players feel flat when they run out to a vision of empty seats and low noise

Re: Tribunal a new level of randomness
Honestly if you want someone to blame, blame the class action cowards asking for a free handout from the AFL. Almost all of these heavily debated player incidents would not be up for discussion 10 years ago if it wasn’t for the AFL being sued left right and centre. The tribunal and Christian are un...

Hope springs….
FYI
GWS have only won 2 of last 12 games at Manuka
Let’s ensure that it stays at 2
I think we match up well.

Re: Ugly football
I agree that the ground was difficult to play on and evened up the teams. I reckon that we'd have won quite comfortably at either Docklands or the MCG. BTW, I think we should give great credit to RTB and his team for making some adjustments after quarter time which brought us back into the match. (...

Re: Saints once again under appreciated by the media
Is it just me, or did the media heap praise on "The battling, undermanned, Tigers", while conveniently ignoring our lengthy list of unavailable players? This is a hangover from last year, when our amazing performances were rarely, if ever, attributed to the ability of our underrated list....

Re: Max King 1 match suspension rough conduct
Still worth the fight though... Fight the fights that are worth fighting. I seriously doubt that contact had the potential to cause injury and that's what we should be arguing.
