Unbelievable!! They complain about one incorrect call and it's a big issue. Collingwood received 4 more free kicks. I can remember about 15 non decisions that happened in 2016 GF to the Swans, that were never mentioned by mid stream media. Funny about that!

The 66,000 includes AFL Members (which I am) & MCC Members. So that's more members that can attend for the Victorian based team which increases their advantage. Yesterday there were thousands of Collingwood supporters around me and last year was the same with Richmond playing.
Never takes much for a bit of a whine after a Melbourne team gets when there is even a whiff of a bad call or two (I thought on balance the game was pretty well umpired yesterday) - yet when any swans dare suggest they got bent over and taken for a ride in 2016, its all about 'sore losers' and that's that....
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
Yes, I was referring to the AFL's explanation of the poor umpiring in the 2016 GF which undoubltly cost us the flag. I still get annoyed with radio commentators who chuckle at Swans supporters when they ring & bring this up, like we're a bunch of whingers and need to get over it. But yet people like Matthews, Malthouse & Robbo scream headlines Magpies were robbed of flag on Saturdsy because of one 50/50 (technical) decision, even though they still won the free kick count!
