Right. And maybe can we can add passion to the intent and outcome debate. Let’s see how Christian handles that one!

Maybe the insufficient attempt (OOB) rule should be judged by boundary umpires? They are always on the boundary side of play so may have a better view. As well as less to think about. Or if not, maybe they should be consulted by field umpires before the decision is made? Something has to improve. (btw, my auto correct changed by mistyped “umpires” to “impures”. Says it all, really.)

Forget Bedford. He’s not up to it and IMO, never will be. Remember, not every recruit is going to make it.

According to The Âge: Former Collingwood cheer squad figurehead Jeffrey “Joffa” Corfe has been charged with two counts of historical sexual offending against a Melbourne teenager more than a decade ago.

That was never a rule.

this is the rule now, isn’t it?

Great to read the analysis. Makes a very welcome change from the Melksham can’t tackle, Brayshaw can’t kick, Goodwin can’t coach, umpires can’t umpire posts we suffer through.

Oresome!

But did you walk alone?

You’re too kind ?

This was the gist of my lost post. But at the same time, I admire his sportsmanship.

6. Salem 5. Oliver 4. McDonald 3. Lever 2. Langdon 1. Neal-Bullen

I replied to this before the threads were merged, but it doesn’t appear here.

Who’d have thought one would be censored for calling BT an id i0t? It’s his middle name!

I’m not sure BT even knows the rules. There have been lots of examples over the weeks of this. Today, I think it was Lever who was tackled and just got his foot to the ball. BT insisted it should have been HTB. “Huh? He kicked it, you [censored].” (Sorry, re-living it.) And then there is just his ignorance... Earlier this round he needed Hodge to explain an intercept mark.

Good work Joeboy. Can I add one? Brown : Hopes Jackson unfit

We’re getting a lot of mentions of “dribble”. Unless it’s about a trickle or basketball, the word is drivel. Ie, nonsense. There, I’ve said it!

Forgive me, but I find this strange.

Hey... me too. But 73kg. The same weight since I was 21. This is probably my greatest achievement in life. ? I just turned 70. My last game was 37 years ago for Murrumbeena.

Good thing you didn’t.

It’s not a ridiculous suggestion and no doubt one day it will happen. PS. Sounds like your wife is smarter than the umpires.

Don’t forget natural growth and experience. With players, 100 games is often cited as the number it takes before we start to see their best. Maybe the same is true of coaches.

Yes. Put me down for a drumstick.

You may find that more difficult than you think. I believe you must first achieve a certain number of posts before changing your name. I suggest you appeal to the Administrators if you are initially turned down. Cheers
