just now.

 

[Leon]

I hate Melbourne. I just wish them pain. Over and over and over again. Against everyone. Pain. Lots of it. So punchable.

This. This. Just so much this. I thank you.

 

[out of finals]

It's been said multiple times already but I can't stand Ben Brown

. Something about him is just infuriating

 

[dergert]

Have to hand it to melbourne- the club is literally a cesspit off the field but they keep getting the job done each week.

He was already like that at Norf

 

[Leon]

Geez, another holding the ball against Melbourne missed there.

 

[CarnTheScray]

Loving Port taking a page out of our book. Having LITERALLY NOBODY playing on the key forward.

 

[out of finals]

I'm no fan of his but Fritsch has a beautiful kick, great to watch

 

[Sentinel]

The goal umpire called that a goal, from perfect position. I mean, come on.

 

[Contador]

15.6 lol, while Port spurn chance after chance. How do they do it

 

[Norm De Guerre]

Luke Darcy - "Just 6 seconds on the clock, It'd take a miracle. But you just never know."

The margin was and remained 7 points.

speak, reminds me that he actually seems like a decent bloke. Partially ruins how much I hate watching him play

 

[MYOB]

He wasn't in the perfect position. The perfect position would have been to be standing behind the point post it hit

and Neal Bullen non frees are one of the biggest issues in the game the moment. Brown gathers, takes on the coming players, can’t dispose of the ball and it comes free, yet play on?

 

[dergert]

I still have nightmares of Ben Brown

kicking the sealer when we played Norf a few years back.

Trengove held him all day then he bobbed up and kicked the winner with like a minute left

 

[dogwatch]

The Ben Brown and Neal Bullen non frees are one of the biggest issues in the game the moment. Brown gathers, takes on the coming players, can’t dispose of the ball and it comes free, yet play on?

The problem is the scope for interpretation and the AFL's willingness to move back and forth within that scope. How often do we see laws start with one interpretation but evolve into a very different one? A recent example is umpire dissent (originally if you so much as raised an eyebrow it was a 50m penalty), but there are many instances of big shifts in interpretation. And of course HTB is a timeless classic.

They should lock down every rule with a tighter definition so that there is very little margin at all for intrepretation. And they should try to ensure that the interpretation is the same from week to week and year to year.

All this variability does everyone in the game a disservice, and it makes it harder to sell to outsiders.

I still have nightmares of Ben Brown kicking the sealer when we played Norf a few years back.

Trengove held him all day then he bobbed up and kicked the winner with like a minute left

Wasn't that Ziebell?

 

[X_box_X]

Cats game tomorrow looks like it will be a wet one.

We haven't beaten Geelong in consecutive matches since 2003. Let next week be the first time in 21 years it happens.

Five day break in the wet with no Danger and no home crowd to cheat umpires into giving them the rub of the green...

 

[dergert]

Wasn't that Ziebell?

I remember a ball came in to Norf's 50 and Trengove had to leave his man to support Cordy or someone and the ball fell out and they goaled. Im sure it was Brown?!?

 

[dergert]

Wasn't that Ziebell?

You're right. Brown soccered it to Ziebell.

Brown kicked 5 that game too but I left the ground thinking he was a flopping spud.

 

[X_box_X]

Yes, definitely Ziebell who kicked the stealer.

See what I did there?
