#AFL Finals Week Two discussion thread.

Just noticed on the AFL website, the picture that they're using above the preview of tonight's game. It has Toby Greene's head photoshopped on to someone in karate gear, performing a flying kick. It also has the headline, "Enter The Greene Dragon".

Just had a look - plus the words ‘Bring your black belt, Pies’.

Disgraceful promotion.

Or the reaction if he doesn't.

I'm actually hoping he repeats the Nic Newman one tonight, just to enjoy the response (and see whether the umpires now understand that this is not permissible). I don't want any Collingwood player to get injured as a result, but am curious to see their response.

Yes, each side kicking each other in the marking contests: what could possibly go wrong?

If Greene tries any karate kicks I will be joining in the booing 😊.

I'm surprised at the number of GWS supporters here. More than turn up to the SCG 😜.

My first time seeing GWS live. Lol their song sounds like something from Russia! Sounds different than hearing it through the tv.

Now it's worming through my ear. I think it's a catchy tune; the tone is befitting a team a giants.

If a defender was able to grab Greene's foot, to protect himself from a karate kick, and dumps Greene on his head, I wonder how the AFL would view that action. Does a player have the right to protect himself from getting studs in his face?

Geez we made GWS look very very good last week didn’t we?

Yes, I was musing the same thing earlier in the week. Hopefully, we get to find out later.

[Sandridge]

At quarter time, Pies have been great and Giants woeful. But, the umpiring so far has been hugely pro-Pies.

Yes, but I seem to remember that GWS could hit a target last week. Don't know why they can't this week? Did they join our players on Mad Monday celebrations?
