Both Oz and indo are a bit rough but I did not know you could tackle a payer around the waist and throw them to the ground 

Oz 1.  A penalty given after review 

 

Martin Boyle is a great Scottish Australian but 

I don’t thing he has ever lived here

2 nil

Blues have done well to wrest back momentum after Hawks looked like pulling away

Has anyone else noticed that the Advantage rule has changed interpretation?

it seems that simply all the players stopping and requesting clarity on the free is no longer a problem. As long as one of the team wants to take the advantage.

5–10 Seconds later, “Play on”, No problem. 

But, it seems, not all the time.

Which is one of the lovely reasons why we love this game????

 

The TV commentary is totally embarrassing. Barracking for Carlton. Hawthorn missed two set shots. Now Carlton are the heroes. And so good”.

4 of Blues 5 goals from frees and if Acres kicked accurately would be 5 free goals from 6.

It’s the worst ‘rule’ in the game. As there is zero consistency. 

Walsh took the advantage for the Blues,  scored and it was brought back.

Other times everyone stops and the ump yells play on. Can we create an actual rule around this aside from the ump does whatever?

Umpires all of a sudden paying throwing the ball against Cripps.

They’re paying every 5th throw, 3rd trip, and 4th high tackle.

It is making it hard to keep up.

After a strong start by the Storm Penrith coming back 14-10

Indonesia's new very expensive coach may not last long.

The Indonesian league was known for some vicious fighting between fans but things seem to have cooled down a little in recent years

Redleg, you're kidding if you think the Blues have had the rub of the green.

I was trying to work out how Carlton was ahead. I thought there might be something that we could employ against the Hawks.

But if we are relying on free kicks in front of goals, well then, we’re [censored]-ed.

You’re right. So I think that means that we will just play it like it is for the next 10 years

It seems to be that you have to stop, in order for the ump to say, “play on”.

I have a real problem, I as can’t stand either of them, but Carlton will always be my most disliked. Can’t stand the club.

For me it's Hawthorn, Essendon and Geelong

There you go! Just happened again with Newcombe but he was called back.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
