Round 16: the other games.

Giants lucky to be only 14 points behind at quarter time. Getting smashed in the clearances and inside 50s, and at the same time, they're also being out tackled by the Crows.

Nicks would have a fair bit of Giants IP.
What has happen to the Orange this year?

Biggest trend I've noticed in footy in 2020 is that there is no harder challenge for a team than trying to retain their spot in the eight.

Carlton, Melbourne, GWS, Bulldogs and Essendon all lost crucial games they needed to win in recent weeks. Going to be plenty of teams ruing their chances.

Crows up by 16 at 3/4 time. Can they bring this home for two wins in a row?

I would like to think so. The Crows have seemed just that little bit more enthusiastic, throughout the game. Bobby Hill has been looking dangerous, though.

Just re-signed Cameron to a two year extension at a time the players look to have stopped playing for him.

Bring it home, Crows.

I enjoyed that. The way that the Crows hung on in the final quarter, was sort of reminiscent of the early Roos era.

Nicksy on a roll !

Heart beats talent!

He looks happy doesn't he? I'm just as pleased that the "hopeless" Crows got another win as I am that a team filled with "1st round" picks lost.

Good win by the crows. You could see they gained confidence by the win last week.

The Giants have been very disappointing this year. You would think after last year that they would be more hungry this season.

GWS are such plastic trash.

Orange, manufactured, ridiculous, plastic trash.

All those first round draft picks, all those concessions - I’ve seen paper clips that have delivered more value.

Fold them now.

Hub life is exposing their lack of club culture and pride. The Swans they ain't....

I see Connor McKenna has retired as of now.....and has given the Melbourne footy media a well deserved serve.

"Conor McKenna has called for the AFL to consider penalties for Melbourne media that report in an inaccurate or unethical way after his time in the spotlight after a positive coronavirus test in June.

McKenna said there should be "repercussions" and labelled the behaviour of some sections of the football media "disgraceful".

The Irishman, who played 79 matches for Essendon, is retiring with immediate effect and returning home after battling homesickness for much of this year.

"No matter what job you have in life there are always repercussions, but the way the media works in Melbourne there doesn't seem to be," McKenna said.

"There's just a free-for-all to say whatever they want.

"If there are no repercussions, why would they change? I think it's something the AFL should look at."
