Besides whenever Ben Brown goes near the ball and they collectively rub one out

Cant compare commentary of a forward against actively getting one player off while trying to get the other suspended.
 
You say chose to bump like there was another option. There wasn't a loose ball he could go for and he couldn't tackle. The options are bump or let your teammate get tackled.
Can bump but don't allow a head clash when bumping
 

its free real estate

it's free real estate

My god there were three legitimate frees there (holding the ball against Geelong, holding on Dangerfield, throw against North) None paid and we get a ruck contest.

That there is what is wrong with the game

Seriously? Even in the periods you’ve been getting belted they’ve been pushing the ‘north are playing well they’ve just had no luck’ barrow when it’s been blatantly obvious that there is a skill gulf the size of the Tasman between the sides that was obviously leading to the margin.

Always happens in games when its likely the underdog has no chance of winning.

How ****** has this game become? The commentators defend someone who hits a guy in the head with a raised elbow and then think another player will get rubbed out for head to head contact? Don’t even bother looking at the act. The end result, the jumper colour and number is all that matters.

Yeah it’s a great point. It’s why the guy in the navy hoops and the number 26 - our most vital player for more than half a decade - always dodged those half-arsed charges for jumper punches and wrestling...... oh wait.....

Commentators always get excited for power forwards don't think that's barraking.

Meanwhile same commentators defend Ablett while crucifing Durdin.
