Dont agree with that below the knees free against s.selwood (don't disagree with the rule mostly just when its contact like that), so much of footy these days is punishing the ball winner. A guy can sit over the person with the ball and hold it in, instead of trying to get it out and its holding the ball. very annoying to watch.

If it helps you preserve possession, it is an effective defensive tool.
Not when the handballs are useless, ie at your feet, over your head, make you stretch, behind you as you are running forward and all of these when the opposition is putting on great pressure. A handball like those have no effect and causes a turnover.

It is going to be so great when Geelong come back in the final quarter, crushing the spirit of each and every one of those insufferable bandwagoners.

Twelve-year-old Guthrie or one of those shaggy, VFL-grade bogans to kick the winning goal after the siren.
It's always good to watch the Tiggers stuff things up.
