Thread: AFL Round 2 general discussion

    Smile AFL Round 2 general discussion

    Jack Higgins now joins the Wayne Harmes MCG boundary line club. All new members welcomed except Collingwood! He marked that on platform 1 at Richmond station. The Collingwood cardboard cut outs behind the goals would've felt they were stiffed with that decision.

    One them was seen wearing a gold jacket at 1/4 time as they had kept Richmond goalless for 3 months up till then! It's good to have footy back

    I assume they had to use the GPS on the bus to find the ground ...

    They didn't seem to enjoy their first outing at the ground in a decade and a half, it was delicious viewing :-) A great pity none of their arrogant supporters were there to suffer it.

    Sadly, Hawks may never play there again.

    Burgoyne should be suspended for the sling tackle that hit Dangerfield's big head into the ground, but let's see if the MRO manages to get him off on some kind of "elderly good guy" clause

    A couple of close matches today so far. Carlton had a really slow start and that cost them.

    Shows how much the AFL care about the long term affect of head trauma. Clearly a sling tackle regardless that Dangerfield played on. Can't wait for the next one to see the penalty.

    Is the limited crowd at AO extremely vocal or is it a combination of the artificial crowd noise plus the spectators I wonder ? Either way it sounds much better / genuine than previous games I’ve watched this round with just the canned crowd noise.

    Man, Matt Rowell is impressive. Bloody superstar very soon. I think this cohort is going to stick for the Suns.

    Yes, on tonight's performance, he might soon be odds on for the rising star. His in close work is very impressive. Especially how he can ride the tackles from premiership midfielders and still get an effective disposal away.
    Enjoying the upset brewing. Hopefully the Suns will hang on.
