IF they are determined to keep it, why don't they just make it a free kick? Surely that is enough of a penalty for what is a very minor infringement. Not sure why there has a be a 50m penalty at all.
Despite playing an average game with a terrible 4th quarter if Simpson had of held onto the ball we probably would have won it. Wish we had of, but losing it may not be the worst thing. We tend to win even when playing poorly, so a loss may make them question the effort they are putting in.

Very disappointing to give a team a 6 goal head start, let alone in a final. However that is how it unraveled and it was always going to be a tough task trying to draw it back. Congratulations to Fremantle, they played a far better game overall.
Re: Are The Media Clowns Right About Our Stats, Or Is Geelong Ahead Of The Curve?
I think the contested possessions can be misleading. During this game for instance it showed that Brisbane had to fight for every single touch of the footy whereas Geelong were able to get more uncontested ball...
I thought Gillies played an ok game. He was playing on a player was a lot faster than he was and there isn't a lot he could do about it. He plays behind he gets left behind for forward leads, plays in front and he is out of position on leads heading towards goal. Plays on 1 side and he is 2nd in...
Disappointing game from the onset honestly the end margin is flattering to us as we didn't do much that was positive all game. A little glad that we lost as i would rather that the boys don't get into the mind set that they can play badly and still win. Expecting a massive step up next week and...
I have to say that double high tackle against Lonergan and then Bartel back to back in the goal square that wasn't paid was by far the most infuriating moment of the game for me.
For years we have been carried by small forwards with no dominant tall forward but now we seem to have 2 and no...
I have to say that i did expect it. If he had of got up and went for the tackle or such he would have been fine but he put his shoulder forward and then moved forward. I'm not saying that his intention was to cause damage but with the rules these days there was no way it was going to be overlooked.
Re: AFL Round 2 - Geelong vs Hawthorn
5. Hawkins
4. Selwood
3. Podsiadly
2. Christensen
1. West - First game that he has rucked the whole game solo? I think i saw Hawkins go up for 1 ruck contest up forward but other than that i don't recall anyone else stepping in.
Harry should have kicked it long and high to give them a chance at a mark instead of handing it off to hunt. Even though Hunt wanted it he was stationary and was never going to get length or height on the kick.
Christensen looks like he is exhausted for some reason. Duncan being the most...
Not too sure what you are trying to say. Are you trying to say that Naitanui should be payed as much for this trip as Folau is payed for the year round promotional activities the AFL are paying him for? Or are you trying to say that Naitanui missing preseason is a bigger issue than Folau missing...
I do have to say i thought James Kelly deserved to be placed better than he was. Not even making the top 50 and just being in the extra 10 players listed.
I thought something similar. Surely some people would have taken it serious.
Was just hilarious when Ling almost fell off the back of the (enclosed) stage when Scarlo said it.
I think the best thing i can say about Chris Scott is that he stuck to his word. He said at the start of the year players wouldn't be playing because of their past success but that the team would be chosen each week on players form.
He stuck to this even if it meant the tough call in...
Re: Dasher to retire
Will still wait for an official announcement but..
Really wish he had of managed to get to his 300th but understandable that he has chosen now to retire. Who will Carlton boo now?
I don't know how coordinated football players can look so unco when dancing.
Rodan on the other hand was showing up some of the professional dancers. Has some talent in that area.
I think when the umpires leave the field and have to recall who played well and deserves votes it is easier for a big house hold name to pop into their head than someone that isn't as well known. Even if that person played a better game.
Despite the fact that Gold Coast got flogged week in week out i thought Gary was a genuine chance for the Brownlow. He was often the biggest standout of both teams even when losing by 10 goals.
The force of the bump was with the shoulder but there was incidental high contact. Selwood was able to see out the game which is a plus. A lenient mrp would be nice.
