I watched the third quarter. Got bored. Went to bed.
I dont know if I'm the outlier or the norm, but unless a Sydney team is involved, I dont have much interest in other games anymore.
I watched it on delay. My recording ran out halfway through the last qtr and I didn't even bother to look up the final result. It was all just a bit dull.
That’s interesting, I thought I would be the only person with that view.
I really, really don’t like the statue rule. In my view it makes elite athletes look lazy and stupid.
Some of the expressions on their faces while they played statues were quite comical. I reckon if the bloke with the ball is not looking they should be allowed to creep forward until eye contact is renewed like the weeping angels in Dr Who. That would be much more fun.
I held that thought for a moment or two until Fraudenberg appeared on the screen wearing a Carlton scarf sitting next to Slomo from Marketing who looked thoroughly confused. It would be an unpleasant world if Carlton ever moved out of the bottom 10.
However, from a purely neutral perspective (often a difficult place to locate) it was a pretty good game. I like having the footy back.
It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.

Or, turn it into a game of Marco Polo where the guy on the mark has to shut his eyes but move and can demand a vocal clapback from the guy wanting to kick.Some of the expressions on their faces while they played statues were quite comical.

'Delicious' is a fun word to say
Have the player watch the umpire's eyes and if the umpire looks away, leap forward half a metre, into a new statue pose.Some of the expressions on their faces while they played statues were quite comical.

It's quite obvious to me that the AFL should replace the rules committee with RWO. We'd sort the game out in no time!
I love the fact some rules never change. Like every year there is an exception to the need to handball and the Bulldogs can just spill or drop or throw it. Great consistency that allows them to cheat year after year after year. I applaud the AFL for standing firm in favour of tradition.
Thou shalt never be forgiven for thou fairytale of 2016, unless thou have earnest revenge taken against thou by those vanquished in error by thou awful scummy maggots.

At least it'd be entertaining to watch more often. None of this move towards zones and crazy talk to open the game up, we'd be much more creative!
