Shuey can kick 60m and a 55m set shot is within his range/ability.
Can’t remember who kicked it in, but he munted it. Panic kick.

Once again it’s up to umpire interpretation like most rules so it will vary, but there needs to be some common sense applied by the umpires to acknowledge a player is wasting time or a legitimate attempt at goal. I believe that if the shuey kick was at any other time of the game other than at the death, he would have been told to move it on

Sounds like the poor bugger had a tough last 2 minutes.Maynard. Went for the barrel but didn't hit it right, it had a real wobble on it.

Surely the rule change that needs to be implemented on this one is if a player indicates they want the 30 seconds, their team can't take a mark off that kick?
What if a player miskicks it?

Maynard. Went for the barrel but didn't hit it right, it had a real wobble on it.
It’s a master stroke if he gets onto a torp and gets out the back. Fine line with 40 seconds left innit.

100% agree and 100% disagree.Blaming the umpires is the most pathetic s**t in the AFL, and Pies fans are amongst the worst for it. No offence to the level-headed ones who understand it wasn't the umpires fault they lost but there are so many who look for any excuse after a loss.
Also Maynard got Rioli high before the ball came in so I don't see the issue, the right result was a shot on goal for WCE.
Never mind any of that, where is the questioning of Ryan's shirtfront on Maynard? Sure we all got caught up in the moment and thought "what a beauty", but it was clearly illegal.
How was it illegal? Any particular law of the game you can cite? Or is it just a vibe thing?
Nope you are wrong. Shirtfronts have never been banned and there is no rule about side on vs front on contact (marking contests excluded).Pretty sure you can only bump side on, shirtfront has been banned for some time now.
Oddly enough if the ball were kicked, not handpassed, then it would have been paid a free for "front on contact", even if he barely touched him.

Yes if he was attempting a mark then for sure, but it wasn't a marking contest, it was a ball in dispute, he was within 5 meters and he didn't contact him high or in the back so it is 100% legal.
He also used Pythagoras to determine the height:weight ratio as well - because that’s now important as well
Great mark by Ryan followed by a clear block by Rioli and clear play-on by Sheed. I know it'll be easy to shut me down as a sore loser, but is there any way Sheed shouldn't have been called for play-on? Ridiculous and cowardly umpiring.

It was a clear block, the umpire in question is a Collingwood supporter and went out of his way all day to appear non bias.
It's a stupid argument. If true it doesn't matter if a GF or home and away game. People search for any excuse.if true, then why was he umpiring the GF? Shouldn't be in that position where he is concerned over his bias one way or the other
I don’t know if that’s why he didn’t pay it, but he is a Collingwood supporter. Most umpires would have been passionate about a team growing up and it must effect some umpires in 50/50 decisions. After all, it’s only human nature.if true, then why was he umpiring the GF? Shouldn't be in that position where he is concerned over his bias one way or the other
