Ten thousand spoons? This isn't the St. Kilda thread.

It's like rain on your wedding day

In a game against Carlton at the MCG in 2015, a Port Adelaide player marked the ball inside 50 and a Carlton player pleaded that he had touched it. The umpire overturned the mark decision and called for a ball up.

Yeah I think it’s a very dangerous precedent to set. Half the time I believe players are right when they point to the scoreboard and complain about the replay. But when umpires start letting players run the show, it’s a real step back for the league. It’s a worrying sign, hopefully it’s a one off and not a trend.

I have no idea how the boundary umpire paid it on the full in the first place. From his perspective, he couldn't possible know where it came off since it was at the front of Elliott's body

And there was no real way his leg could've actually kicked the ball from underneath him

I get irony that Buckley winning his last game as he never won a flag as player or coach but I don't get the irony that the new coach loses in their first game - can you explain OP?

That's not irony either.

Irony was when Bucks left the Bears because he wanted to play in a team that could make finals. And then Brisbane started making finals while Collingwood did eff all for years. And then he plays consecutive grannies against them and loses both.

That horse bolted.

 

[yeee_haaaa!!!!!]

Congratulation on the career... No flags Nafan

he will be perfect as the next Carlton coach then. ‘No flags’ appears to be their mantra in the 21st century

“Dead Horses” is the best name for a team ever.

“Who can’t be beaten ?!”

“DEAD HORSES” !!
