Just take a bite
100% the dirty campaigner should have gotten weeks for kicking at players essentially.
Roast IF it isn't biased or ncompetent..... THEN it must be inciteful media coverage part II

And Josh and Jack getting mauled in every marking contest. Just show them clips of any random game and they will see it happening.
Called out the massive armchair ride Richmond get by playing 7 games in a row at their home ground.

Don’t have a view on this one way or the other, but what is the difference between using a forearm and a hand? One’s a free kick and the other isn’t, so why not apply the same concept to legs. You can fly for a mark without using a straight leg, studs up, to hold the space in front of you.
There really is no reason to fly studs up. The only time you gain advantage from it is when it is combined with a kicking action and that will still be deemed dangerous.
There is a reason they yellow or more often red card players going studs first in soccer - because it could be dangerous (and having a split second to decide if it is or not is impossible for players).
But afl will afl and make the rules up as they go.

Just wait until we've got the bunker thing with live umpire coaching, the AFL would have changed the rules on the fly between the two Reiwoldt incidences.
Bunch of fools on the rules Committee. Studs up/0ut in any form should be a no-no. Not it's okay in some circumstances because of tradition. Get rid of it.

Caro doesn't like the Eagles at all
Reiwoldt going for a mark this weekend
More like this, but in the back:
Is this seriously allowed now with the new rule change? Good luck if you're a defender .

"No kicks to the head, unless going for a mark."Bugger that, this is allowed now
The Karate Kid example is probably more like the Toby Greene one which is still banned from my understanding. But the same exact same action would now be legal if it's in the opponent's back though. At least that's how I heard it.
On another note, just realised that Johnny Lawrence from the same movie kind of looks like Oscar Allen.

Same umpire both times I'm thinking. Seemed to forget its not who comes down with it. Its touched!

Is this one OK?
Well the positive is, it's now open-season, for all backs to target Hissy-fit Jack, studs out, in the back, in the legs, in the side, all day long - they can hurt him, injure him, give him a real good dose of his own medicine!

Finally caught up with OTC last night and actually Roo's brought up an interesting one.
Not sure if already brought up and posted but not on this page so here,
Earlier in the year Howe got paid a free against him for the :studs up" rule and that was that. Paid a free against and the AFL signed off on it saying correct decision that's what the rule is there for.
Jack does it, twice (really 3 times), on the weekend and now it is a wrong decision and they are going to change the "interpretation" of the rule.
WTF!
Roosy was not happy and baffled by the AFL.

I still have a 20cm scar on my leg when some campaigner snap kicked me in a marking contest. Raised studs in a deliberate attempt to fend off should not be allowed. I rekcon Darling and JK should use it as a deliberate fend off considering they get scragged off the ball all the time. * the AFL and the whiny Richmond w***ers.
