Re: kick-out from goalsquare a disposal?

Even if the umpire calls play on i'm pretty sure the kick doesn't count because they still have to kick the ball to themselves if they want to leave the goal square.

Really? Always thought play on would have counted the kick in..even if they are still in the square. I swear I've seen players just run out the square then kicking it after ump calls play-on without chipping it to themselves first tho? Prob wrong here tho..

No way mate.

Everyone would just wait for the play on call and start running. Still need to do the self chip

Re: kick-out from goalsquare a disposal?

Yeah and because you still have to do the chip to yourself then surely you're not getting 2 kicks for that. Therefore the first kick still wouldn't count.

Re: kick-out from goalsquare a disposal?

Why can't we see the scores of other teams in our leagues during bye weeks? I'm actually interested in seeing how they are going and I don't see what harm it does.

 

[Jolldo87]

I agree. I'm always curious to see what kind of week i'm having.

Is there any way to track the trading history of other teams in your league? I wanna see where my main competition sits in regards to trades in hand........I suspect he is running short and still has a number of upgrades to make. But I wanna be 100% certain!

I don't think you can do it now but for next year you could download FFGenie at the start of the year and track their trades through that.

Does anyone know why Montagna scored so crap in rounds 11 and 13 against Collingwood and Geelong (51 & 45)? Was he coming off injury or has he just been playing rubbish lately?

 

[sheller891]

51 he suffered an injury early then played out the game poorly
45 - sub, probably due to ill effects of round 11 injury...

If you're looking at a league win only..........

What league game would it be in the finals when Geelong have the bye??

For that matter, what is the finals format for league games???

Eg/ is it 1 v 2 or 1 v 4 etc etc........

 

[Jolldo87]

Exact same format as the AFL finals. So 1 v 4, 2 v 3, 5 v 8 and 6 v 7.

Round 21: Qualifying/Elimination Finals
Round 22: Semi Finals
Round 23: Preliminary Finals
Round 24: Grand Final

Finish top 4, win your qualifying final and skip the semi (and Geelongs bye) altogether!

But then the clincher will be the Carlton bye in round 23 during the prelim finals, I reckon that might rock a few boats.

Is there a reason why Brent Harvey is doing average in the past few rounds?

 

[Jolldo87]

There were rumours he has a broken thumb and was going to miss this week. That may account for it.

 

[BiTeGumsux]

Wasnt it confirmed by the kangaroos that he has a broken thumb?

Surprised he is playing this week. May be a late out.

 

[favourites]

He will play this week

 

[BiTeGumsux]

Hmmm

 

[favourites]

Things must've changed in the last 3 weeks, apparently was best on.

Good news! Gotta hope he takes his chance!!

 

[Benno_900]

He's been in North Ballarat's best every week.

The sub will either be him or MacMillan.

What happens in a finals draw?

Simple question I cant find the answer to. I seemed to have had a draw in my qualifying final. What happens? Is it the higher ranked team that goes through?

Re: What happens in a finals draw?

Highest ranked team goes through.
