Another prelim loss for Dan Houston

Bringing that key finals experience from Port.

Except for that goal, not a huge night for him.

Guessing the Grand Final will only be on 7?

He's had a very ordinary year, mind you if the story is true he moved back to Melbourne to be with his girlfriend only to end up single mid year it's been a pretty rough 12 months for him.

Zorko cited for misconduct re the Mason Cox incident with the glasses.

Can accept a $3125 fine

wouldnt have occurred if Cox hadn't charged at him

I just watched the Geelong v Hawthorn game

WTF is happening with the umpires?
Could the umpiring in the Preliminary Finals be worse than the minor round? You betcha

1st measure: Immediately sack Dillon. Time for Harley to rescue football
2nd measure: go back to 3 field so 9 of those useless c***s lose their jobs

[Bum Crack]

Thought the Tom Stewart injury changed the game, up until that point Geelong were effectively playing one short. Hawthorn played very smart footy and took him out of the game, using Moore at every opportunity. His injury forced the cats to play without the loose defender.

Hopefully that was Worpels last game, not sure Geelong would be as keen on him after that performance and his performances through the finals. He's a rabbit in headlights, slow decision maker, poor decision maker and if ever he does make a decision his kicking skills are atrocious. Good riddance

Jiath not up to it, Carlton bound apparently.

Desperately need Day to have a good run at it, but history says guys with his injury are lucky to even make it back.

Im not overly enthused by Merret or Petracca but would choose Merret if i had to pick one and comes about 6-700kpa cheaper. But would only go down this path if Butters is 100% out the picture either this year or next.

And it would be remiss of me not to mention the fn maggots last night, absolutely got a royal rogering from all of them, even the boundary umpire getting in on it.
And while im having a whinge can the AFL ban the headbands. At least there will be one less next week with Stewart missing out. We dont need a bye before the GF, bad luck, no different to doing a hammy. As Mitch said, "i dont give a shit".
As for a tip, i hope they all lose, especially Geelong.

Both losing coaches were exceptional in their interviews
Some gems in there

Just another dog act from Zorko. Scraping at a blokes face, telling someone he hopes his Mum dies etc etc. Dog.

Is that alleged or confirmed?

[Booney]

Widely reported.

Zorko would be one of the first picks in any side for mine, he adds so much to the Lions. Hang shit on him as much as you want, even better when it’s 3rd hand hearsay, but he’s a vital cog.

A completely different player to Danger or Pendles, but how good that 35+ year olds are still at the top of their game.

I thought he meant he had said it again

Just the latest tale of woe involving Zorko

[Trader]

I'm a huge hater of Zorko, but I agree that it's Cox who ran at him first. Cox gets what he deserves (thanks Kenny).
