You think Wingard is a replacement for Betts?

That’s both unassailably ignorant on a footy basis, and probably racist as well

Seriously uncool

what are you on about racist

Wingard is an AA and quality

if you think down those lines its you who are ignorant

Doedee left training injured this morning.

How serious?

No, apparently he left the track, had a chat with the medical staff then went into the rooms, wasn't limping or anything like that.

Well I suppose thats encouraging, wasn't an impact injury and wouldn't likely be a structural injury.

I'm guessing a muscle twinge of some sort, and went off to ensure it doesn't get worse.

 

[Cromulent]

Phew..

Re Doedee
"A club spokesman said Doedee had reported quad soreness and he would
have scans on Friday to determine the extent of the damage.
But the Crows do not believe the injury is serious."

So a 10-12 week injury then.

Reported as Soreness so could be a week, I would wait for the scans

Alex Rance is AA and quality, doesn't make him an Eddie Betts replacement.

HINT: It relates to where they play on the ground

If a player takes mark before the siren, does the disposal after the siren count even if they are not having a shot for goal?

If a player takes mark before the siren, does the disposal after the siren count even if they are not having a shot for goal?

I've always wondered that. Like when they take a mark in them middle of the ground and then the siren goes. The player often kicks it to the umpire, so does that count as a kick? And is it effective or ineffective considering it hits the target...

 

[Vader]

It probably should count, but it's still subject to the other rules affecting marks. For example, if the player moves off their line, then they're deemed to have played on. If a player plays on after the siren, then the kick doesn't count.

I'm 99% sure that counts as a stat. And as its a free stat the player nearly always kicks it.

The one that has always slightly irked me is when a guy is over the boundary line but behind the mark for too long so the umpire calls play on. Logic tells you that from the moment the call is play on then the ball should then be out of bounds (even if its in the players hands). I mean technically that player can be tackled at that point (although i've never seen it), so it doesn't make sense that he can stand way over the boundary line with the ball in his hands after play on is called.

I never really pressed it because its universally done so I assume there is a loophole or grace period somewhere in the rules, but it doesn't stop me from being just that little bit irritated by it every time!

One of my many weird quirks I suppose!

There would have to be a definite ruling about a kick taken from a mark after the siren. Especially with bets taken for disposals.

Absolutely. Unless they are having a genuine shot, there is no possession awarded.
