I thought Buddy was one of their better players GF16. In team sport can you blame one player for a loss?

41 insides 50s to 59 for Footscray says a lot.

Those inside 50's for the WBD were umpired and AFL influenced apparently Ti Em...well so BH and the SS fans are telling me....Buddy had about 10 min of brillance in that game....that's about 1 million dollars per minute!.....he was recruited to win them flags ..not to win Colemans and AA jumpers surely?.......

Anyway come end of the day Richmond deserved their flag.....even more so in their own backyard.....BH out of interest, SD getting into the finals this year from last place in 16 ....was that down to other sides like Perth, Cl, EP, EF and WP going backwards or them just not ready for finals footy yet?.....

Jeez, its pretty common knowledge the 2016 umpiring was a joke, even the AFL admitted.

Bazza considering the AFL umpiring is a joke most games, what is new?...surely it affects both sides and who is to say SS were gifted som decisions to win games during the H&A to get them into top spot and the finals in the first place...swings in roundabouts.....everyone just remembers the GF decisions of the umps...as though it was the only game all year affected by joke umpiring....move on.

....SS fans are just salty because their team of fat walleted champions got done over on the day by a team of nobodies.....seeing Hanneberry get taken out by Wood was great to see....no different to Cotchin and Shiels or Paddy and Sloane...hard tough footy....then the sealer was Buddy getting pinged with ball, then Tom Boyd scooping up the loose ball to kick a 60m six pointer.....Boyd was recruited to deliver a flag...did so ...way before expected.....but hey don't give a toss if he does fark all ever again.....obviously SS are still waiting for Buddy to do the same thing....
