This pat on the chin will have to suffice.

Deflection eh

Both Green and Oliver are certified divers.

Have no problems with Green's fine, as long as the MRP are consistent all through the 2018 season.

Come on the "Boy from Busselton", hit them hard.

I'm convinced that some clubs coaching departments have instructed players to exaggerate pushes, hits, etc. It's why we're seeing more and more of it and why it needs to stop.

There are other examples of this as well where players deliberately let the ball go over the line then beg for a free. It's farcical in fact when you see 5 players from the same team stick their hands up instead of running after the ball. Some of them don't even know who took the last kick and they're still instructed to stick their hands up. I've noticed it most with the dons of late. There once was a time where Lindsay took the cake on diving that but now even players like Daniher are being told off by Lloyd to stop diving.

When you see sudden and grouped changes like this you know it's most likely coming down as a directive.

Interesting take given your club is the only one I've heard of whose head coach actually came out and admitted they train to get head high contact and draw frees.

Childish deflection. Avoided all key points and practically said 'but you do it too'!

My point remains, it's more evident now more than ever and it needs to stop. Especially the hands in the air rubbish.

Merely responding to the assertion that you've 'noticed it most with the dons of late'. Seems a strange thing to say for someone whose club is quite open about training for it. Do you not watch North?

My point remains, it's more evident now more than ever and it needs to stop. Especially the hands in the air rubbish.

Ah so all your 'key points' actually come down to one point which actually has nothing to do with Essendon specifically meaning the rest of your post is just another lot of drivel from another busted arse North supporter. My mistake! Play on!

Needs his partner in crime in Fantasia back.

Essendon are a well known breeding ground for unprecedented divers, it's where Angus Wantsfrees learnt the craft.

 

[Sauras]

The only way the dud will ever become relevant. Certainly won’t be in the news for his footballing ability.

Took too long really.

It's rubbish like this that turns kids off AFL for life.

$1000 is a slap on the wrist. I'm extremely disappointed lengthy suspensions and significant fines/draft sanctions to Essendon were not considered.

This Green character is an absolute pig of a human being.
