Heard an umpire say that Ra Richmond player wasn't holding the ball because he was already on the ground. Where was that rule for Gawn a few weeks ago?

The inconsistency in umpiring is a disgrace, and the AFL only have themselves to blame.

It wasn’t the player, it was the ball the umpire was referring to. Implying he didn’t drag it in as it was already under. 

Very subjective but that is how they continue to get the tick of approval

What have we done in the last 30-50 years ... he’s played against & saw the rabble we have been & apart from 2 gf which we lost to him by 96points we continue to unravel & can’t sustain success. You need to earn respect by winning something not pretending! 

True, but it annoys the [censored] out of me. I know respect must be earned but everyone taking pot shots wears a bit thin sometimes.... I get what you're saying tho.

It's all very clear to me now.

We need cows grazing on the G through the week, and extra dung beetles brought in to boost numbers.

That will reduce the fly population, and, ergo, fewer maggots.

?????????

The original “maggot infestation” comment by america de Cali had me in stitches, and then this post just pushed me over the edge. Best 1-2 comment punch in recent memory!

Hunt continuing a good season. Looks like he’s blanketing Rioli and doing a very good job. I wish they used him more when he runs by teammates to create an option.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,305]

Imagine we had a forward line!

[sisso 2,580]

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

Maggots crucifying us frees 4 to 12

which is what is actually encouraging for the future

we've played like garbage all year but been really competitive, particularly since the bye (and we got the backline back and the forwardline got rebuilt due to injury)

nice to see angus tackling again! remember his first season - consistently up around 10 a game from memory..

Its not the free count that is the issue. It’s that there are rules that are only enforced when it benefits one side tonight  

Free kick stats should be lopsided. They should be based on actual infringements which would be coincidental if it were the same. 

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

More depressing news in The Hun today. Suns chasing pick 2 as compo

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

We are so bad at keeping the ball in front of us when it’s on the ground.

[david_neitz_is_my_dad 4,084]

We ain’t gonna win in the wet 

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,778]

Look at the Tiges precision in the wet

We're too sloppy to compete in these conditions 

[Satan 2,881]

A touch of frost

[Little Goffy 14,645]

If anyone happens to be looking over the stats at half time and notices that our 'clangers' count is the only stat where we are well off the Tigers, please remember that free kicks against count as clangers...
