The free kick count in the Geelong v North game is interesting.....32-18 in North's favour. Glad the Cats won......
Whoa, just caught the Gold Coast-GWS game, crowd looks tiny, even the reverse camera angle showing the main grandstand shows a sparse crowd, lowest AFL crowd ever I'd reckon.
Result is a massive worry, GC got a few injuries but not as many first choice players as GWS. Not sure what the AFL can do to help them but Lynch is 100% gone at the end of season, in fact reckon he's emotionally checked out already.
It is a very disturbing situation. Of all the clubs they are the ones that most need a priority pick but I don't know that it would be enough to help them. Maybe they should be moved to Tassie. Of course that won't happen. I wonder how Stuey Dew feels now.
For whatever reason, the GC got their early years wrong on two big counts - recruitment and culture.
Other than Lynch and May, they squandered all their early picks. Swallow is a good player, but not a great one for a no1.
And their culture was clearly problematic - from the suggestion of drugs during the Karmichael Hunt era - to other things more intangible that saw decent talent like O�Meara leave.
I can�t stand GWS, but they did a lot more right to set up potential success.
GC are just putrid.
Just reflecting on the round so far during the half time break in our match tonight and one thought keeps pervading...... I feel really sorry for Stuart Dew. The Suns should be dissolved.......for a team from Tassie.
PS: Oh, I see this has been well discussed already.
