Just singled out Lindsay Thomas on talking footy
Just don't pay the free. So now it's a free AGAINST? They will botch that up completely.
Post it notes to the interchange steward?Whether you agree with the new interpretation or not, changing the rules mid-season is ******* amateur.
Would this be a free kick or still a boundary throw in?
True. Miles and now Grimes (on Saturday) are doing it at Richmond. I guess it is a skill but I'd rather not encourage it to become commonplace amongst players. May as well call it ducking and not pay the free but the umpires have a split second to make sure the player has or hasn't dropped their whole body down and lifted their arm up to draw the high tackle. Their job is hard enough as it is. Selwood and Thomas are the grand masters at it but it does take quite a bit of skill to pull it off consistently.Isn't this kind of missing the bigger issue? Blokes leading with their heads is clearly not on, but the majority of head-high frees are from lifting the arm to draw the contact. This still doesn't solve the Selwood/Shuey/etc. issue.
We have 1 player that does it - not sure it's any worse for us than ess or the rest of the comp.Great. Bout time.
Saw a Richmond player do the old lead into tackle lift arm twice on the weekend.
Chappy did it last week too after Christensen tried it a handful of times.
Rule will be a killer for North.
