Gives off a "we've been waiting 18 months to start hating on this guy again" vibe.

I think a lot of pent up frustration from the mighty Catters fans, yes. We opened the door for them to win the 2024 flag going down 7 goals in the PF but they couldn’t walk through it.

Bartel said it was fine because there was, even though minor, actual contact.
Staging is essentially grossly exaggerated behavior with the intention of acting for a free kick. Contact or no contact is irrelevant

You obviously need to stamp that out in the game for obvious reasons we saw last night.

Imagine an entire field of cam rayners flopping all game.

Not the best spectacle

Bartel and Selwood abusing the rules for hundreds of games and suddenly Geelong supporters have an issue...
 
am I crazy for thinking it would be much less of an issue and circumstances like this would be tolerable if the free kick was where the ball lies? So instead of a goal square freebie, Stengle would have just had to hand the ball over to the oppo in the backline?

It would depend on who's got the footy at the time, obviously. Turning the ball over to the man on the mark would have made sense there, since the free was against Stengle's teammate. But suppose it'd been a free against Cam Rayner. Are you going to take the ball off Stengle 45m out and give it to O'Connor in the defensive goalsquare? That would be stupid.

So cheating is fine if the ball is close enough. Thats certainly an opinion
I certainly distinguish between charging out for a mark and putting some sauce on contact and just flopping like a fish standing 150m away up the other end when someone nudges you, yes.

huge context difference.

Seems the difference is what colours they wear
 
I gave the context of difference, you can use your brain and work it out

It just contradicts this quote "Staging is essentially grossly exaggerated behavior with the intention of acting for a free kick. Contact or no contact is irrelevant" because it's a guy you like

I don’t really think charging out for a mark and putting some sauce on it is very exaggerated, it doesn’t take much added force for those ones. To stand there stationary and let a small nudge on the goal square flop you to the ground like a fish.. it can only be described as a cam Rayner.

Just going to drive my Ford Ranger Wildtrak to my fully paid farm and drop the kids off at the Cotton-On child care centre before I comment on this one.
Make sure you refuse to vaccinate, protest immigration and post on facebook while you're at it

Of course it's relevant, Rayner can just argue he was off balance when pushed and the afl won't be able to charge him with anything
