The half time margin would not have been anywhere near five goals had the umpires not been in the tank for geelong. would have been a different game

I think Adelaide will be ok in a hypothetical MCG final, where there's a lot more space to run and carry. Small/narrow grounds like KP and SCG clearly do not support their game style - they need space to run and don't use the ball well in close quarters. I can't remember seeing as many smothers in a game as I saw from Geelong tonight.

Despicable umpiring aside, Adelaide have a culture of failure and have failed nearly every major test like this in the last 20 years

I couldn't believe the numbers Geelong were able to get around the ball. Felt like we were half a step behind all night.

The AFL is serious in its stand against punching. Don't you dare think otherwise or I'll punch you in the throat!* *a jumper may, or may not, be involved.

Also I just checked the match states - Selwood got 3 frees tonight, and two of them were for being whacked in the head running back with the flight. I assumed from the match thread he ducked his way into about 8 frees but it turns out it was nothing more than hysterics! Shocking!

The one where he got hit in the head running back with the flight was not even remotely a free kick, he ran into a guy making a legitimate marking contest and got a free for being courageous Joel Selwood, instead of giving one away to the man he infringed.

I would like to put a coda on last night by stating that every game that my team loses is due to external factors, such as umpiring and biased commentary. It is never due to having a brittle and easily counterable game plan and a pigheaded coaching staff who refuse to develop or implement a plan b.

They often attempt to influence the MRP before sanctions are handed out on Monday and it is pretty annoying. I don't know why they are allowed to do it, nobody else seems to.
