Gaff got 8

And I reckon Touhey instigated this a bit

It's two weeks. 6 or 8? Give me a spell.

Yes but half the time it’s not clear whether the ump is saying get outside 5 or you are outside 5   Please explain

If a player doesn't stand the mark immediately (the time to do so appears to be uniquely umpire dependent lol) and is a step or two away then he will be instructed to move back at least 5 meters from the mark (as to how any player knows exactly where that is i have no idea) with the umpire telling him "outside 5".

Sometimes of course this is the player's doing in that he is deliberately stepping away from the mark anyway (because he wants to)  and the ump is still telling him outside 5.   In other words that player can now no longer go forward and stand the mark, he must stay "Outside 5".

The Doggies mostly (but not always) prefer to play outside 5.  And at times they sometimes choose to stand the mark or they get caught on the mark and can't go outside 5 after the ump calls 'Stand'.

The short answer is it can be both but each call for outside 5 relates to one of the above scenarios.

Geelong mostly prefer to get up in the opponents face and 'Stand' the mark.

Hope that helps Sue

I think the push in the back of a player shoving them into a pack is one of the most potentially dangerous actions in our game.

Seems to go unnoticed by the tribunal.

Hope Geelong choke

Reckon there was a bit of that with May last week

Why the [censored] does BT have to comment on what’s clearly going to the tribunal? Insinuating that Toohey was acting. He’s such a blow hard. The game is better off without these boring dinosaurs who editorialise the game instead of simply commentating.

I shouldn't say this . . . but I wish that gas cylinder . . . .

Sick of watching the man on mark drop back 5m

Stupid stand rule...

Really sick of hearing both.  Heaps of the outside 5 watching the Doggies as they mostly play it that way.

Easiest solution ....Channel 7 dont mic the umps!

But yeh need to lose this rule

It's been surgically removed

How long have you worked in the teaching profession Brownie?

It's pretty much a Doggy thing.  They prefer to step back from the mark and not 'Stand' the mark but instead go back and protect an area.  If they dont stand the mark then that area has to be outside 5 meters from the mark.

A great idea for defenders in an OOTF situation as they can protect against the inside kick, a play on inside for a long raking kick over the back and/ or the switch a little better instead of standing the mark on the line and watching as the player runs off into field to do one of the above.

Thanks mate. They yell outside 5 even when there is no one with 25m of the mark

if it’s a rule, why do they have to coach the players?

or just turn off the mics

Cameron is playing like its his jubilee 

Been the difference tonight.  Such an accurate kick and works super hard to get separation on opponent.

Yeah, I just watched a replay and I think you're right. Just a forearm into the back and pushed May off balance and into a high speed collision.

Cats seem to be experts at it

They have to yell it each time as if the player does the opposite after being told he is going to be free kicked.

The coaching i can't stand is when the umps tell a player running near or.alomgside the mark, even when right behind an opponent, to 'Move out/Away'.

As you say they are well aware of the rules.  Stop coaching them FCS.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
