Under what rule did the umpire pay that a throw? (Around the goal post)

Surely passing the ball hand to hand is not the same as throwing?

 

Surely it's no different than Higgins 2018?

Ask any bulldog player, you must pretend to handpass it.

But yep you're right. It wasn't a throw

Carey said he threw it to himself so it’s a throw. 

Yeah good on Carey.

But since when has swapping hands been called a throw in the AFL?

Is it the action (ie "throwing it up"?). If so, the same thing should apply to Higgins 2018, and other instances of throwing it up then kicking it.

He wasn't disposing it, and it's not like he threw it up meters in the air and recaught it to avoid another player, he did the minimum he could to transfer the ball between hands.

Surely that is not the intent of the rule?

What an absolute BS deliberate OOB .... no option was playing the ball in front of him.

Except it was the absolute definition of insufficient intent to keep the ball in, or not to run it out. A free kick every day of the week.

I agree with you. I quoted Carey but forgot to add the I’m an [censored] emoji. Not that there is one but you know what I mean. 😊

Ugh. I’ll spew if I’ve hung in there watching this snooze-fest just to see Port win. 😠

I think this game has basically been the bye before the finals.

3 point game and it's trash
