Discussion 2021 Round 2: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Peter56]

The worse thing about the umpiring is that there are no repercussions from their bad decisions. They roll up the next week and keep making bad decisions.

 

[Beijing_Sting]

So what happens now beyond the rhetoric? Covid will steal the headlines...

 

[mike89]

Didn't see much of the game but the bit I did see (part of the third) had two very hometown decisions in it (I think it was Guthrie throwing it to Selwood in the Geelong goal square). To then have the game be decided by that non HTB... I think we owe an apology to West Coast fans, that's worse than anything I've ever seen at Optus.

Stewart 83, Daniher 73, Clark 67 for me tonight. And Sharp 20 on the bench but as somebody else in the thread mentioned, I think I've found my donut now...

There is no legitimate explanation for something like this.

I’m sure all of us non Neale owners would’ve taken two 70 scores in the first two rounds and ran. He’s going to lose 100+k pretty fast. Hoping he drops below 600k by round 6 and he’s the perfect upgrade target

 

[Dazza]

The amount of SC points a player loses giving a fifty penalty away is a joke, Brockman kicked 2 goals last week and ended up with 20 SC pts because he got ping for a 50 because thought the player played on and lost about 15 pts

Still disappointing that he scored 30 points in the last 5 minutes.

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

Absolute rigged this game. Zorko was on 88 5 or 6 mins before the end, he copped a dubious free against in the square and ten a 50, he lost 24 pts from that & Neale was on around 45 at the time and gets 30+ pts for 2 or 3 possessions, it's properly rigged.

Neale's HB were basically worth 10 points each, kinda iffy when you think about it

 

[Baglimit]

Neale to Selwood and pocket close to $300,000.

Or if yo

Was it the same one who gave the 50m to Cats a few minutes prior to that?
I can’t get over how **** that last few minutes of umpiring was... completely changed the result of that game ... PATHETIC 😡😡

Don't forget they have their own Brownlow, they each got 3 votes tonight

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Even when he gets blanketed in a loss CD still found a way to give Neale a free 30 odd points at the end.

Farcical end to a farcical game. Yuck.

Stewart went missing for massive chunks of the game.

Daniher on the end of some generous scaling.

Sharp turning himself into a loophole for the rest of the season.

3/291

 

[chewy]

Not gonna lie, generous would be an understatement regarding Neale’s scoring.

That 75 means I’ll probably keep him and cop the dip in price.

 

[Creeker]

Solid enough scores from my 3 tonight. Was hoping for 250.
100 from Stewart, 80 from Atkins, and 70 from Clark.
Got there in a weird way for 257.

currently 5 / 514. From 3 prems and 2 mid pricers.
Grundy, Crisp, Stewart, Atkins and Clark.

 

[Gruffles]

Jono Brown not happy about that holding ball not being paid

I wouldn't be either, was clear as day that Blitz was caught in a fair tackle, Brisbane robbed on that decision.

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

Zorko 11 points behind Neale at FT.
Very very harsh if you ask me.
Watching the whole game, I know who played better and had more of an impact.

 

[Gruffles]

I am more worried now about more tags coming his way this year, he goes to water and did in the finals last year under a tag too.

 

[Leroy]

2/150 Stewart and Clark.

A bit meh really.

 

[Jim's Dim Sims]

Which of Neale and Cripps would you trade out if only one had to go?

 

[BomberSam]

4/396

Grundy, Walsh, Stewart, Daniher

 

[Ironhawk]

4/539 (Grundy)

Bailey lifted to a decent score after a slower start. Would have preferred a bit more from Clark, but he won't lose cash with that score. Could be worse, I almost started Neale.

 

[Studz]

Just finished watching the game after an extended half-time.

Did the umpire really think ‘play on‘ was the right call.....or did he just not have the nerve to call it at the Cattery...

Cats escaped with their last life by the skin of their teeth....ripping tackle it was and should’ve been paid ‘holding the ball’.
