That was like the Melbourne pre-season win in 2016. After three dead quarters, the crowd (and teams) got real keen all of a sudden.

Was it a joke?
Too many Pbomber et al posts slagging everything to spot satire amongst them.

71 frees in a single game. WHAT DA FUQ
I wish he got more of a go, but I guess doesnāt feature in our round 1 plans.
No worries. Always a risk of Poeās Law in a match day thread.
Panic dollar peaked and near parity during the 3rd, and settled on about 70 cents USD. Analysts said it was just a correction to some panic selling earlier on
I just had a quick look at the stats. We had 45 freeās against??
Was it poor discipline or bad umpiring or both?
Mostly crap umpiring

Both. They were paying some (many) soft ones, but also I donāt think weāve learned how to hold the man off the ball without being obvious about it.

Beat in almost every stat but the 1 that mattered, that has to be good yes?
Three players didnāt lay a tackle this time.
T-Bell, Gleeson and Hurley.
Thatās better than nine players.
Zerrett 9, Zaka and Tippa 8, Myers 6.
I am more pleased with this effort.

Even the commentators couldnāt believe how many frees were paid
How we still won that game when it was so badly lopsided was a miracle
Pannell can fark right off

Love to see the breakdown of frees for Panelbeaterā¦ world class ā ā ā ā ā ā whose bias gets worse and worse each season.
Screws us each and every game. Iād be getting 20K ready and sending out a player to say somethingā¦ guy is a joke.
Some were there and no doubt our technique was lacking at timesā¦ but far out it was a horror show.

Zerrett was excellent all round today.

Thatās disappointing from Bellchambers in particular. Shouldnāt be hard for a ruckman to get a tackle.
I generally give ruckmen a pass.
It can be tough for them to lay an effective tackle, and you donāt want to be giving away a free kick from the centre clearance.
