A complete disgrace all round.. and that hands in the back rule is making a mockery of an elite professional sport.. Kangas must have had 6 or 7 goals from soft free kicks

As bad as I've seen this year.......some soft frees were paid at both ends......and the interpretation changed from one 1/4 to the next as to what was a push in the back and what was ok.

Meanwhile, some players were allowed to take on the tackle, and it was a ball-up ; while others got pinged after a nano-second of 'prior opportunity'.

Sandy Roberts used this term during the tennis.

It was stupid.

Just checked the stats in the paper.

Goals from free kicks, Roos 4, Carlton 6.

Yes, we got 6 or 7, all from soft frees. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Don't let facts get in the way of a good story. Next Collingwood fans will be telling us they are their real teeth:p
