Outer is packed. Grandstand is 10% full yet when I tried to get tix there on day 1 they were sold out.
Nice work AFL. :evil:

It’s looks really good on the idiot box, plenty of atmosphere.

Awesome atmosphere, it reminds me of games here in the 80s but less nasty stuff.

I love going to the Parade and it looks great with Coopers Hill and the outer full BUT all that press on the new LED fencing upgrades and they arent working

I’m on the road and listening to MMM in Victoria, Howie has mentioned 87,000 times already how close they are as commentators to the action and how it feels like the best of country footy. He obviously never went to suburban VFL games back in the 80’S.

The mids of the early 2010's would be furious they had to put up with taggers like Ling Crawley Baker etc.

Pfff, forwards have been putting up with tagging and the tactics that go with it for 100 years.

Seriously how bad are Gold Coast.

In the last 10 mins I’ve watched:
1. Half fwds/mids flying against team mates rather than being front and square- Freo stay down 45 kick to corridor goal
2. Wing stoppage Ruck hits to advantage all their mids defensive side Freo take away goal
3. Players chasing ball getting sucked in to the contest, free Freo runner gets it f50 entry
4. Absolute lack of an ability to kick to their forwards advantage just bomb it in on their heads repeatedly.
5 let’s play from behind.

The poster child of 23 individuals playing for themselves

Seriously wind them up, send them Tasmania,

They are F***ed

@Vamos was right PNU v TTG would’ve been better.

Personally, I hate the fact it is as the Sub though, clubs should be banned from doing this :shock:

Not giving him much chance starting as sub. I'll stick to my view that he reached his ceiling in the SANFL and will likely get cut at seasons end. Has had plenty of chances to debut with various injuries over the years.
