Why is a fwd pocket in the backline? cause the rest of the team are useless and he can’t get a touch in his actual position. If you want to attack players look to the midfield. High number of hitouts but [censored] all clearances.

It hasn’t been in the forward line for him to a) kick goals b) defensive pressure

How the [censored] didn’t the goal umpire see that. He was 20cm from it

Bit harsh on Norf there

Soft by McDonald. Step into the player run into you. Front on contact every time

The same that happened to wines was replicated on Oliver. It’s [censored]

Got offered mcc the other day. Do I ask for a refund on my MFC “donation” membership to pay for the $1100 fee? Not sure I’m getting my monies worth currently.

How can a select few of us (too many deniers on here) see it at every stoppage? It is so frustrating when soft calls are paid to the opposition.

Congrats. ?

Ah the ol red and blue jumper rule

And Montreal cognitive assessment

FMD the port player was surprised he got the 50

He is a t-wat

It affects the confidence when you feel like everything is against you. They aren’t impartial

The umpires are [censored] woeful

Why does Goodwin always look clueless? At least if your clueless look busy and write notes or seek advice from others in the box

[censored] [censored] umpiring

Is shepherding still a rule?

Yes they do need to sort their notifications out.....I received two emails as the first code apparently didn’t work.

He would have been fined. AFL people can’t comment in the media on the umpires otherwise they throw the book at them.....but to think Goodwin wouldn’t have any choice comments about the umpiring is......amazing. Agree it was a brain fart by fritta which is disappointing it’s not the first time this year.

I hate when players are pinned htb and they just let go of the ball to the ground then shepherd the tackler from collecting the ball. If it’s htb the rules should say they have to return the ball on the full straight away.

Well then you need competent umpires who can identify a 14m vs a 15m kick. I think it’s well played to Geelong, Brisbane etc who have used the short kick strategy against us as the umpires have adjudicated their kicks going 15m. My suggestion was to make it easier for umpires - not because I like it.

I think the distance should be increased to 25m for this and the distance a player has to run before bouncing the ball. If it’s 20-25 it will more in likely be paid a Mark, but at least it’s not a dink that doesn’t go above head height. Should create more long kicks down the line which I think AFL house wants

I think the shorten quarters have really helped Brisbane. They looked a lot quicker around ground with their spread. Berry Lyons and in particular neale. If the game was the proper 20min qtrs we would have easily won.

ponder this ? Both the kick for a mark and the distance a player can run before bouncing is about 15m.
