Very informative thread you have here.

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

he wouldn't have been able to hear the whistle

free always come back

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

Definitely this. Can't have the rule for one situation and not in another. Umpire didn't have the balls to call it advantage.

This thread is deep.

Bigger issue is the deliberate and blatant trip. Very dangerous.

1. He had a shot for goal after a free kick. Advantage has been taken (read Jeff Gieschen on those "informative" SEN ads)

2. Him whinging about how far the Crows defenders were back should have seen the 30 seconds done and dusted and been called for play on (read Denis Banks 1990 Qualifying Final Replay)

3. His second shot for goal was taken before the umpire had restarted the clock. Retake the kick thanks.

So much wrong with that bit of play....that's not even counting the fact that McKernan will probably get off the charge at the MRP!

Tell that to Pendlebury. I always maintain that the Magpies are the only undefeated team this year - so do you agree?

Oh by the way to geelong supporters i'm not having a go at geelong or johnson! i like you guys, this is a go at the umpiring sorry if its on the wrong board. I just want to see if other people agree!

It's been paid off an on all year. Some umpires have decided common sense should prevail, others have strictly enforced the terrible new interpretation.

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

Worst rule in the AFL.

Good to see common sense prevail.

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

Brad Johnson said that the umpire brought it back b/c he thought the umpire gave the benefit of the doubt to Steve Johnson. If that is the way the umpires are thinking than the rule is a disgrace.

The rule is a disgrace regardless.

hope this guy doesnt get away with starting a topic in this way.. pathetic!

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

Interpretation was wrong, should have been advantage paid, point kicked. The rule is terrible and has to go. Johnson played on before the whistle blew, I think, so he thought it was play on.

 

[Patronus]

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

Seeing how Johnson had already kicked the ball before the umpire blew the whistle for a free I don't know how he could have chosen to take advantage for a free that had not even been paid yet.

Sorry was just in rush writing it. If you look through my posts you'll see it was a 1 time thing.

Re: Pathetic. Steve Johnson played on. Thats advantage.

Look at the Collingwood fans converge.
Quite sad there Magpies, or is that seagulls?

Genuine fear of Geelong there.

Care to suggest where I am wrong with my post rather than just make a massive generalisation?

The bigger issue is the deliberate trip, McKernan booted the shit out of Johnson's shin. How many weeks?

As per all the rules unfortunately. And, yeah, you'd reckon McKernan is in a bit of strife. Didn't look good.

Good point
BTW you're a Bomber supporter so you do know you're suppose to mention Dustin Fletcher is the only one that gets pinged for tripping,don't you ?

I'd expect (hope) 1 game down to a reprimand.
