R17 Vs Lions @ CAZALY'S

[Nico]

Absolute shortlist contender for howler of the year that call.

No wonder umpires get a caning when they miss those.

[Ludwig]

Why is football only played in the rain this year? Is the AFL saving Australia from a bush fire season?

The non-call for the push on Mills is the way things have been called lately. The umps haven't been calling many, if not most, of those. It's hard to watch games now that rules have been abandoned.

I get it that people get calls wrong and make mistakes, but at this level they shouldn't be missing blatant ones like that.

Going to be a scrappy old game, and has the feeling that eventually the class of the lions will be too much for us, but I like the endeavour so far in tough conditions.

[longmile]

Taylor out for the game. doubt he'll play next week

[Markwebbos]

Lewis Taylor done for the day

[mcs]

Nice play from Bell then - I like what's he doing. Reid really is struggling with mobility when the ball hits the ground.

Is Cunningham our most reliable defender?

Should be top 5 in our b & f comfortably

I've been trying to get the "Cunningham is the new Smith" bandwagon going for a while now

Absolutely has had a really good year again. I feel pretty comfortable with our depth and options in the back 6 overall - its the rest of the ground where we need to catch up.

[Daisi]

Yes i wonder about Cunningham for b& F this year...played every game, very reliable.

I wish we had a forward line, I'm sorry, I've never thought Reid was up to AFL standard..

[mcs]

Reid showed so much as a youngster, but has just never had enough of a run of it with injuries, and never got over the 'almost moments'. Several of them tonight again on show.

Agree with this. I think we're looking good in the backline and the mids are doing OK, it's the forward line that seems to be a problem.

[mcs]

Great play till that kick from Blakey. What the @@@@ was that - he needs to get that 'cute' crap out of his game.

[Nico]

Blakey does another stupid dinky kick. Kick the bloody goal. He was 30 metres out running in. Not Under 18's mate.

When you have limited opportunities you don't waste them.

[mcs]

Beautiful stuff from McI - he has some real class about him. Reid however If we had a marking forward they would have had 5 or 6 shots by now.

I like Blakey in midfield - when he kicks it properly he has a great boot for clearing congestion and hitting a team mate.

And again Reid.... having a 'mare,
