And then he gets branded soft, and is ridiculed by everyone (including his coach) for not even contesting the ball. I mean really? He should have “LET Aish take the ball?” Is this what AFL has become? Apparently so. The game is cooked.

We play a game in which you can kick and run in ANY direction at high speed, and not only that, the AFL have also gone out of their way the past 20 odd years to make the game even faster. These sort of impacts are ALWAYS going to happen. This is what the AFL (and all the nuffies in this...

Had his eye on the ball the ENTIRE time.

This is the best post I’ve read on BigFooty in a long time. The only thing I‘d offer an alternate view of is what you said regarding Heppell. I mean, I do actually agree with every single word you said about him above. HOWEVER… IF Scott is going to get the broom out, then as he said in his...

Stringer showing what can happen when you actually look to hit up a target going inside 50 as opposed to just turning around, playing on, and bombing it to the top of the square.

How he’s still there is unbelievable. He must have some serious dirt on someone. There can be no other explanation.

100%. And it’s been the big issue the past 5 or 6 weeks, and the reason why our inside 50 conversion has been atrocious. We continually bomb on Wright’s head expecting him to kick 7, but the fact is - he’s not good enough. And if Brad Scott can’t see this, he needs to go ASAP as well to be...

Hahahahaha… this is so Essendon. 🤦‍♂️😂

He didn’t wiggle around on the ground like a moron and punch his opponent’s arm… so it’s not a sufficient attempt apparently.

If it was a last ditch effort to go after Clarkson, then the question is… WHO made that decision? If it was Barham, and Barham alone, then he has to go. Immediately. Because if that’s an indication of how he operates, then the guy’s clearly clueless… on a number of levels. However, if Sheedy...

If we’re just going to keep bombing it inside 50 and expecting Wright to clunk big marks in these conditions, we’ve lost the game already.

😂😂😂 I do like Guelfi though... does the 1%-ers and gives his all.

Rightio champ. Move along.

Mate, I thought he missed it... and he did... and I was laughing as well! But watch it again... the defender actually kicked it into his toe. The last touch was off him. Goal. To be fair though, he probably didn’t deserve it anyway... 😂

At first, I thought he missed the ball... but watching the replay, that clearly came off the toe of his boot... and clearly a goal. WTF? Why bother with reviews if they can’t even get it right in slow motion? This sport is so hilariously amateur now. 😂
