Opinion Non-Crows AFL 8 - Daddy Donuts Delivers Dream Drubbing

[Mr_Moogle]

You play the entire season under one set of rules, then in the last minute of a prelim the obligation to attempt to dispose when tackled no longer counts.

Four consecutive stoppages where Collingwood players dived and lay on it.

Apparently it's okay to leg people too.

Brilliant game. Thought although umpires missed a lot that last quarter they did let a lot for both sides go. Bad luck Giants. All aboard the Lions train now.

All this fussing over crowd noise every year.

Footy fans are noisy. Get over it.

So many missed frees

 

[Scorpus]

Brisbane are going to cop an almighty rogering from the umps tomorrow to make the 2012 prelim look fair.

I don't think we will have seen anything like it before

What?

 

[adelaidecrows]

that last few minutes were some of the worst umpiring from the year. refused to pay free kicks that were their for gws, refused to pay high tackles and clear holding the balls on collingwood players diving on it to hold it in. Why the afl thinks not paying clear free kicks in the last quarter of big games makes for good football says everything about how amateur the afl is.

For the record, we dont need to be told every few minutes on how loud it is. Clearly the MCG is probably throwing crowd noise over the mic to amp it up. Every ground does it as its a proven practise.

Felt like a Crows game.

Dominated for a large portion of the game, couldn't put it on the scoreboard and then fall short at the end for a "brave loss"

 

[Bearded Clam]

Great game of footy..

pies deserve to play in the GF.. been the best team for the majority of the year.

Giants have been great the last month or so though.. they’ll take this sting and use it to motivate them next year.

And put people in headlocks!

Daicos v Greene just Like Buddy v Rutten

Only sport in the world where the rules change depending when in the season or what the margin is.

They were going to cop it from the umps either way.

Collingwood win and it’s the Collingwood vs Carlton GF “Fairytale”.

GWS win and there has to be a Vic team in it.

 

[jello_bello]

Disgustingly biased commentary and umpiring in the last quarter .
If that was anyone but the Collingwood fairytale, GWS would have won by a fair margin.

 

[1990crow]

Umpiring legit had a massive impact.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

Only professional sporting league in the world where the umpires don’t apply the rules in the last 5-10 minutes of the game. What a pissweak excuse of a professional sporting league.

yeah its mental, last few minutes of a close game everything just flies out the window.

 

[Owen_AFC97]

How many high tackles on GWS players were missed towards the end?

Giants got dudded. High tackling now legal apparently

 

[GameofSloanes]

Apparently it's okay to leg people too.

And tackle them around the neck

Made stupid turn overs and for some reason forgot the aliir game plan of not kicking blindly down the line and kept kicking it blindly for Moore. GWS were the better team, just made stupid decisions. Not helped by the umpires in the final minutes.

Missed 7 clear free kicks for GWS

 

[fuic08]

Nothing like a Vic vs non Vic prelim to corrupt the umpires

 

[Slippery Pete]

Collingwood-supporter-in-chief Drugs Are Bad Mackay? will be very happy

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

If there is a God Maynard will be KO'd in the first minute of the GF
