Round 23 Geelong v Brisbane Lions

[Harris Specter]

You can only laugh. Genuine throws get ignored and that triggers a whistle.

Geelong have always been the umpires' pets.

 

[Silvagnis]

Shame Josh Walker looks a little like Kent Kingsley.

 

[SuperSub17]

Why do the commentators not actually listen to what's going on?

 

[blue harvest]

lol, maybe they should check the camera angle from the moon

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Imagine the whinging in this thread if these calls were going against Brisbane.

 

[alfy!]

Umpires against Geelong as usual, that's two reviews that have gone against us.

Hey, you don't have to tell me.

Google Earth?

 

[CrowAboutIt]

UMP: I think it was touched.

Richo: He called it a goal

Please walk onto a Jetty and continue walking. Take your mates with you

* me. Once again, how can the AFL have a review system in place without
1. HD cameras capable of crystal clear slow motion
2. THE SAME CAMERAS AND ANGLES AVAILABLE AT ALL STADIUMS.

they're ******* stupid.

 

[E92_]

Goal post cameras at every ground for the finals, only took them the ENTIRE ******* YEAR TO DO IT.

+1

No point having the review unless you have the technology to back it up and it's consistent across every stadium.

 

[Sleutheren]

just heard BT say they'll have goal line technology available for the finals. Oh, so you're saying it isn't appropriate in it's current state? Then why the * is it implemented?

 

[blue harvest]

Dive.

The go pro on the umps hat has proved to be the most effective to judge a lot of them. AFL is so cheap not to make that mandatory.

They thought Sunday night games were a good idea, shows you how smart these people are.

 

[alfy!]

About time we got a free, being killed.

Nice duck into the Brisbane defender's arm by Bartel to draw a freekick and goal. Well coached.

How do you pick up the ball without ducking down?

 

[Toffee Lion]

Only a Geelong player could poke someone in the eye, then go on to receive a free kick.

Umpires almost as biased as these shitty commentators.

Lol. Main board gameday threads are so funny. The bitterness always comes out.

How's your team doing, champ?

Fair point but he did angle his head towards the tackler, that should be play on IMO

So you're going to accuse people of bitterness and "typical" replies, and then attack the team of someone.

Nice job.

Yep, it was a great angle by the cameraman - you could see the intent.

 

[alfy!]

Sadly Brisbane can't give us a decent contest, would have been nice to be challenged before the finals.
