Umpires not having their best night. Looking to pay free kicks and getting as many wrong as they get right.

They've lost the plot. Nothing new there I guess.

Just turned on the last 10 minutes Q2

Are the maggots under instruction to get GW$ into the Prelim?

Certainly looked like it.

Yes that was my thought toward the end of that second quarter. Let’s see how we go in the next half but come what may I think the umpires have had a shocker so far. Paying some very marginal frees but missing the obvious.

Umpires telling players how to play. THAT IS NOT YOUR JOB

If a player goes over the limit then pay a free, Charlie Cameron has a bad arm, but it was his decision to come back on.

Would love to have Hipwood playing for us.  Weid is in a similar playing role and similar stage in his career but seems to be so far off impacting on a regular basis like this young up and comer.  Reads the ball so well and great overhead.  Works hard to get front position and to get separation on his opponent for the hit up.

First line correct - but they do it all the time.  Second line: why he is on the field is irrelevant. AFL must be the only code where the players, officials and commentators have never bothered to read the rules.     The commentators' discussion about what's acceptable is a laugh.  Here's a simple way to avoid it.  Any contact which is deliberate and does not involve trying to get the ball, tackling, shepherding etc should be prohibited contact whether players are injured or not. Would cut out stupid niggling which has nothing to do with footy skills.

Nothing wrong with testing out your opponent. Always been a part of the game

Worst thing about it is the dribble we'll hear from the commentators about it now.

"I've seen the (Hawkins) incident, what I will say is what I think in recent weeks in the AFL is moving away from suspensions.

"I agree with the AFL's approach, you want the best players out there playing so I'd hope there's consistency in that."

Maybe, but these constant elbows to the ribs and the kidneys are unnecessary.

The holding the ball in the middle.  Complete show pony.  Always wanting to be the center of attention.  [censored]

Clearly two very different versions of holding the ball. 

Who is 35 GW$?   Just throwing elbows to the larynx then kneed same guy in the head when on the ground. Dirty dog.
