    They seemed to get involved in one way traffic when GWS has a circa 20pt lead

    Umpiring balanced and Dogs are losing badly. Fabulous fightback by the umps and the Dogs are within sight.
    Must be nice to wake up on game day morning as a Dogs player and know you'll get the umpiring benefit.

    And the commentators remain silent. There were some shockers with the one against Davis taking the cake.

    Some mystery decisions that's for sure.

    I thought that Greene was a bit stiff, to get kicked in the nuts and to give away a free.
    And in the modern terminology, is Greene now off the ground with 'groin awareness'?

    Umps have been ok for the Dogs up till 3/4T but will need to really dig deep in the last.

    How on earth do the Dogs get such favouritism from the umpires? They're allowed to mark 10m kicks, they constantly throw the ball, an opponent touches their them above the shoulders and it's an instant free.

    Loving seeing the dogs get thrashed. Even with the umpires help. So satisfying

    Giants are home, the Fairypups fairytale is at an end, thank goodness. Good try umps, the pups just too outclassed.

    I know the Giants have been erratic recently but there's a truckload of seriously talented footballers squeezing under their salary cap.

    One small advantage for us from the Giants winning, is with next year's draw. Since we finished in the bottom six, we only have to play one top six side twice. That will now be the Giants: who we always play twice, anyway.
