[SidVicious 130]

Could someone please remind me as to which club was originally drawn to play against the Swans this weekend?

[Clintosaurus 7,848]

Matt Rowell just did his shoulder

Feel for Rowell. Shoulders can be a frustrating heal sometimes. I don't feel for GC though. The AFL's baby. F em.

Appears to be a new rule. 
Players taking a kick outside the boundary line, aren’t being made to bring the ball in over the mark, but rather are being allowed to continue on outside the line . Should be thrown in, as soon as they play on or kick it outside the line.

Move sideways off the line and its play on.  If the ball is fully over the boundary line, it must be out of bounds.?  

And as you say,  should then be the umpires ball to throw in.

Hope GC spoil the cats party.

Gold Coast doing a better job at the moment at countering Geelong’s movement of the football than we did last week. 

[DemonOX 8,791]

Can we get GC’s King in our forward line please. Next season will do ?

[Nelo 813]

Gee I wish we had Ben King.

That wouldn’t be hard Whisp. Most teams can counter it except us.

Even the coach said we didn’t know how to get the ball back. That says a lot.

Be interesting to see how we get outcoached this week. So many options.

If you’re taking a kick outside the boundary line, you can play on, or switch the kick. You don’t have to kick the ball directly over the mark. Is that what you mean?

But if you do play on outside the boundary line and Then hesitate while being outside the boundary line, then it should be thrown in. If you play and commit to it, without hesitation then it’s play on.

Mate if we all had the benefit of hindsight we would all be millionaires. 

[dazzledavey36 54,944]

We had King right in front of our door step.

Questions need to be asked who the [censored] ticked off in trading it away for May.

This is the job of the recruiting staff and list management team. Messed it up, there's no way around it.

[whatwhat say what 22,757]

we lost a forward; we should have been drafting a forward

hindsight is 20/20 but goddamn....

[Brownie 5,981]

Geez I hate those ridiculous 50m frees. gifted goal to the cats

[Gunna’s 2,104]

Umpires must have a sneaky punt on cats. They call things differently depending on the colours of the jumper.

A part of me wants to be at ease that Luke Jackson can be our Ben King..

GC skills dropped off half way through 3 quarter.

What, you can run outside the boundary line, past the mark and keep running there, out of play  until you kick it in and that is ok. I don’t think so.

To be fair, after the 2018 finals we probably thought Weideman was the next King brother.

There’s not much fairness hereabouts.  But I see the GC who have passed us according to the doomsayers don’t seem to be losing to Cats by just a few points.
