Did Byrne-Jones end up coming back on? Last I heard they strapped him up and he was doing tests on the boundary

Yeah he came back on

Wasn't always pretty tonight but I'll take it!

Wooh. Good news for him because it apparently looked ugly.

Just showed Gaffy in the rooms walking around

:)

Watched the game delayed, without knowing what had happened. My thoughts:
- pretty physical game. Lots of players going off with niggles and hits
- Port suck
- Jonas can piss off. Gaff is one of my favourite players :'(
- Gray is gone for a week.
- Trengove is a better ruckman than Lobbe. Follow up work is superb.
- we will be better off without Jonas I reckon, won't win next week though with a heap of stars out
- honourable losses will cost us finals again (assuming we even get that close)
- congrats Eagles hope Gaffy is okay :)

That is flowered, I'm so angry right now, he needs an American History X head stomp for that cowardly bullshower! >:(

Apologies for my extreme moment of violence, I literally saw red and was storming around the house so angry! If we had lost that game because of being a man down, it would've absolutely blown. Something needs to be done about this sort of shower to even things up. If a player renders a player on the opposing team useless for the rest of the game on purpose, that team needs some sort of in game punishment. I guarantee if a player was sent off for "x" amount of time with no replacement on field, these instances would almost completely stop as players would feel the wrath from coaching staff if they let their team down in his way.

Yeah Jonas can get flowered, what a spud.

Good to see Gaffy was okay. Agree on the red-card call. Some hack just KO's our best player and it showed. We missed his outside run so bad when he went off. Definitely something the AFL will look into I think.

On the result, good to see us win away from home even if it was ugly. The form of Lycett and JJK is insane! Would be nice if some others rocked up. Still yet to see Lecca play a good game away from home and there's a number of others who were passengers yesterday I felt. Masten still looks a yard or two slow.

Onward and upward, might be worth giving a few of the sore boys a rest next week as we should get it done aganst Gold Coast at home. Obviously Gaffy is one candidate for a rest and then maybe Shuey/McGovern who often miss training through soreness. Then I'd like to see a few of the young kids get a run - would like a few more weeks of Jetta in the WAFL.

On Gaffy, that gane ruins his run at the record game for most games over 25 disposals I'm pretty sure! :'(

Also means we will miss our BnF leader at the Magic next week. :-\

I think Yeo played his best away game this year, but it might be a case of he just sucks when playing the top teams rather than away teams.

Lycett and Jkk as you've said have been dominating, I've been saying it all along, Lycett is way better than Sinclair!

Gaff should def get a rest next week I think, so will Jonas, and Gray for that matter! :P
