There is a rule specifically prohibiting staging for a free kick.  Surely the MRP have the authority to review that decision and suspend him for that?  It was quite literally a dive. 

Yyaaaa like that will happen, even though the commentators all called it as a dive... I hark back to G a few a years ago, the Viney tackle on him the G fwd pocket.. Viney smashed him, he staged for a free, didn't get one then peaked out from under his hands the ball spill in his direction and miracle of miracles up he pops to kick one of the goals of the year.

At least two of his goals have been from weak free kicks in front of goal. 

Ok then ET

To be honest, I never even notice the umpiring.  It's so f/ed up that it's not worth worrying about.  In an odd way, it kinda evens itself out. 

It used to do my head in and now I don't care.

I hope that one day I can let go and not care about the umpiring.

It comes with age.

Or it doesn't.

Adelaide and Sydney grinding themselves down is far better than having Adelaide blow Geelong away, for a Richmond fan imo.

No....  he is not that detailed in his thought process.

Sydney you could argue were red hot favourites coming into finals.

They are currently getting flogged by Geelong

Richmond flogged Geelong last week

Therefore....

Cant believe how politically correct football has become.Punching a ball into the crowd and you give away 50metres.Afl is  overgoverned by [censored] umpires.

Blame the lefties, someone, somewhere may have been offended by the punch.

Wow 7 goals.  Who would have seen this coming especially a week ago. 

Just a shame they didn't do it a week ago and beat Richmond. 

Because tonights lousy Geelong MCG picnic atmosphere has been something you'd want in a prelim against GWS/WCE ?

How is Rohan on an AFL list let alone getting a game? Ginger on fire.

Currently has a 1.4 goal avg this year,  perhaps that? doesnt seem to do much else though. Goes missing a lot. Has a random game every now and then where he runs rampant.

4 goals to 3/4 time.....unbelievable really, and cats down a backman.....I cant figure out Geelong...but i REALLY cant figure out Sydney!

Much like us, if you put enough pressure on the midfielders they fall apart.  You'd almost think we have the same game plan or something.

It's not about political correctness, its about wasting time. If there was 10 seconds to go in a game, you'd probably want the ball in your players hand to deliver it inside 50 rather than having to wait for fans to dig it out from under their seats.

I gave the cats a chance tonight but never ever thought they would get out to this margin. 

Thankgod the swans played badly tonight and not last week. 

But I do admire the way geelong have responded. They were humiliated last week and they have come out tongiht to prove  apoint. 

Next week Danger going back to the adelaide in a prelim against his old team for a spot in the big one. That should add something to it.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
