Hey, I'm not sure on the rules with this one either. How or why can the umpire just halt a game because Barass got a sore shoulder? I understand if a player is out flat on the ground groggy or knocked out but why did the game get stopped while Barass jogged off with just a sore shoulder? Anyone know the exact rule around injured players?

It drives me insane when players scoop the ball back into the player on the ground and just lay on them to earn a free. That's exactly what happened to Petty.

I've been doing those line bets for weeks. Normally get about 1.90 on the opposition with a line of around 30 or 40. We can't beat anyone by five goals. Easy money

That's about three games where we've selected players expecting a wet weather slog which never happened. Same scenario with non selection of Ben Brown. Strange

How about Fritschs set shot with under five minutes to go. He chose to chip it to the top of the goal square for a ten man contest ffs. A point would have made all the difference. So dumb, so lazy. The whole team.

Hawks have turned this into a scrappy Auskick game and it's working

Umps got so money on at half time?

Invest in Sparrow. Geez were walking now

Hawthorn

Bowey is our best but probably not big enough.

Nice softie in front of goal for him to finish off.

Yep, we want them still in the hunt for the eight for the cats game next week. They can gagf after that

Umpire 22 weaving his magic in front of goal again.

Yeah, watched the vfl game on Kayo. Didn't think AVB was outstanding but was pretty physical as usual. Maybe the wet weather swung it his way. Feel for Sparrow. Bowey is getting better every game and Bedford will be a great player for us too at some point. Jones didn't play, so maybe that's why he's not coming in.

Yes, Spargo

NSW will take anyone. Meet halfway. There'll be a Bunnings open somewhere in Sydney. We can play in the car park

He's a kick it down the line specialist

It's like a Geelong aerobics class every time the ball goes out of bounds

In the back of my MFCSS mind, it's lurking as a very MFC outcome

Totally agree with the above. We've got some wonderful depth and young talent coming through. But they're not ready for AFL level of speed and pressure yet. Especially coming into the finals.

I would love that. Half time would confuse the **** out of BT. His fat head would explode

With the lower scores again this year, the AFL are due to do something stupid with the rules again. Maybe shorter quarters and longer breaks to squeeze more ads in? Knee Jerk time is near.

I'd at least hit the mute button to stay Dwayne free

Good to see the umps are consistent and are giving the cats are free ride both home and away. Gee I hope we play them first week of the finals. They just aren't that good Surely one of the top four teams below us has to stumble soon. I was hoping it would be Geelong today.

Brayshaw's yelling even when speaking a normal sentence drives me nuts. I'd love to have a mute commentators function for Foxtel
