    Is it time for Michael Christian to go

    Nah, doesn't matter if it's a little bit blunt. There's no spine to cut through.

    It's Miller Time on Dayne's Nuts

    Yes, that's the issue

    MRP / Trib. Rampe Gets Two Match Suspension For Off The Ball Bump

    Did they take into account Rampe's remorse?

    Umpire's pets, Most goals from free kicks

    Still on the raw end of the differential though - umpires showing no mercy. Frankly if you can't mark the ball against our midget backline with no pressure on the kick coming in you should be penalised and the Eagles given a free kick.
  5. Truckosaurus

    MRP / Trib. Taylor Walker BRUTALISES defenseless umpire after kicking a goal.

    The AFL missed their chance to stop this by letting Cameron off and now key forwards everywhere are ruthlessly targeting field umpires for elimination. How long before they come for the boundary umpires?

    Is it time for Michael Christian to go

    Welcome to the AFL administration. Please leave your competence with the doorman. No school tie, no entry. Your membership is valid for life.

    Umpiring The Umpiring Dissent Rule - Discuss Here

    Of course the AFL didn't say the umpire got it wrong. He'd have paid a free kick against them if they did.
  8. Truckosaurus

    MRP / Trib. Kossie Pickett hit on Bailey Smith

    Launched himself like a salmon leaping upstream.

    2021 AFL Finals Umpiring

    It's the rules themselves. They're written to be so vague, subjective and/or complex that any decision can be retrospectively justified. Every time the AFL 'tweaks' a rule (so on multiple occasions throughout the year) they add another layer to it. Chuck out the current rulebook. Re-write it...

    Nick Holman - 2 weeks- overturned, free to play

    Waiting for Christian to come out and call it the easiest decision he ever made and incorrectly state that both arms were pinned. Who has he got photos of, do you think?
  11. Truckosaurus

    Hayden Kennedy quits.

    Propaganda.
  12. Truckosaurus

    Ending congestion

    All new players have to spend at least their first two years playing only in the regions, to better utilise that part of the ground. That will solve congestion.

    AFL CONSIDERS CRICKET CHALLENGE SYSTEM

    Honestly I think it's to divert conversation from "the system sucks" to "oooo, that wasted review could cost them! Why did Captain X call for that?". The AFL would rather have their players criticised and publically dissected than themselves.

    AFL CONSIDERS CRICKET CHALLENGE SYSTEM

    So are they admitting they don't review every goal or are we supposed to think that if the captains call for the review that the AFL/ARC/ALF won't make the wrong decision like they have previously? Oh wait, it's so that if they miss one, it's the captain who gets blamed on Monday.

    Bontempelli's hit on Haynes

    No delayed concussion though.
  16. Truckosaurus

    Viney concusses himself - media question Eagles Barrass?

    A better question would be why the Melbourne docs let Viney play out the quarter before doing a concussion test.
  17. Truckosaurus

    15 m rule

    Probably the same reason you can't tackle them when they're running up.
  18. Truckosaurus

    Ablett this time a punch gotta get a suspension for that

    Nah, just a very, very, very, very late spoil. You can see what he was trying to do, he was just a bit clumsy and so slow that the play had come to a complete stop and Miles didn't have the ball anywhere near him.
  19. Truckosaurus

    Missed free kick after siren: changes result of tonight’s game

    "It wasn't against the rules and you won't be punished, but you'd better tell us what on Earth you were trying to do, young man!" Shades of the Melbourne "no evidence of tanking* but fined regardless" debacle. *Because we decided not to accept all of the evidence that there was

    Hogan fined

    Gil's very business-minded and in business, KPIs are usually based around revenue. He's just applied that logic to the MRO. Christian will get his bonus this year at this rate.
  21. Truckosaurus

    Dusty Hit

    Was doing his best to get Martin off without charge, for sure. Not sure how it's physically possible for an elbow swing to slip up from the back to the head?
  22. Truckosaurus

    Leigh Fisher umpiring Saint Kilda/Fremantle Games

    He can remain impartial because he's a professional (albeit a part-time one) and because his performance will be reviewed frame by frame during and after the game and it'd be the end of his career if he decided to use this game to get revenge on Ross Lyon.
  23. Truckosaurus

    Mason cox suspension - farcical

    Christian has found his 'Naitanui tackle' for the new season, I see. Wait for him to come out on Thursday morning and call it the easiest decision he's ever made.
  24. Truckosaurus

    McGovern hit on Viney

    You can take the boys out of Albany but you can't take the Albany out of the boys.
  25. Truckosaurus

    Protected Area nonsense

    Umpires should just enforce the protected area by booting the infringing player with their studs out.
  26. Truckosaurus

    Andrew Gaff hit on Brayshaw

    I would have had Gaff tied with Hurn for Eagle Least Likely To before this. Guy doesn't even get involved in niggle.
  27. Truckosaurus

    Howe many?

    1-2, medical depending. But that's in a world where we have a competent MRO, in the real world he'll get either a fine or 4.
  28. Truckosaurus

    If you could get rid of one rule what would it be and why?

    It was briefly revived in Round 1 to deny Mark LeCras a goal at an important part of the match.
  29. Truckosaurus

    Jeremy Cameron elbow on Harris Andrews

    Minimum 6, I wouldn't raise my eyebrows at 7 or 8 either given the hospitalisation. At any rate we won't know until tomorrow because there's no way this doesn't go straight to the tribunal. Hopefully Andrews recovers quickly.

    Shaun Burgoyne reported for Rough Conduct on Polec

    Nothing in it, so 1 week.
