    Umpiring

    How's that tackle on Baker that slipped high, then went higher...no whistle. A few minutes later, May gets a glancing blow to the shoulder and throws his head back...umps fall for it and there's the late whistle.

    Game Day Round 2 v Port MCG Sunday 24th March 4pm

    Name an Band!

    Can't believe I had to read through 12 pages of this thread to see Cap'n Jazz mentioned. If I had to name an band, they'd be one of the first two I'd think of.

    Portland Trail Blazers Thread

    Scoot Simons xxxxxx Grant Ayton Bench led by Sharpe with Thybulle, Walker, Murray, Rupert... If we flip Jrue for a starting SF we could actually be in the play off mix pretty quickly.

    I'm still fuming that there was no 1924 grand final

    After the H&A season, Essendon finished on top with the Swans, Lions and Tigers rounding out the final four. The teams were all separated by just 6 premiership points. That year, the finals were played as a round robin and if the round robin winner and minor premier were different teams, they...

    Umpiring

    Nice little sequence there with Bolton getting the free aganist after being obviously blocked from the contest, then given the dissent 50m for pointing out that obvious fact, then another 50m against Rioli for being in the way as the umpire straightened Port up from the original near boundary...

    Umpiring

    It's interesting but it really only tells us what the results might be if all teams were not only unaffected by umpiring bias, but also had equal amounts of discipline and ability to execute good tackles and spoils. Obviously, in the real world some teams are more disciplined and/or more...

    Universal Love Oh captain, my captain: Cotchin retires. There will never be another.

    We all owe that man a lot of happiness. Thanks, Trent. I'm not changing my sig or profile pic ever.

    Player Watch #38 Noah Cumberland

    I think his problems are purely mental. Made a couple of mistakes early and it got in his head. Tried his heart out but was panicking a bit I think. Send him to that mindfulness lady that turned Dusty into a machine.

    Player Watch #38 Noah Cumberland

    This game from Cumberland is like how it would go if I had a dream about playing AFL. Like just having no control over my body every time I need to kick or catch.

    Umpiring

    There were at least 3 occasions where I screamed at the TV about a missed free and at the next stoppage, the tiger in question could be seen clearly questioning the umpire about it. They were such obvious calls.
