[censored] off.

[censored] umpires. Just a joke. That's game over.

Too many slow movers.

Another [censored] weak free.

Umpires every [censored] week.

Surprised Bernie is back to Casey, despite the commentary that both him and Jordie could not be in the same team.

What a terrible article.

I had us ending up third at 15-7. Seventh was also 15-7. Our percentage if it holds up is almost worth an extra win.

So Petty sounds the most like Lever in how he plays, so should have us being most like the weeks where scores against were low? We did only concede 75 last week. Collingwood and Hawthorn are the only real shockers score against wise.

Which is why we are smashing rubbish teams. The ones with the skill to maintain possession can work through the press without turning it over.

It mainly happens when our anchor is not allowed to sit off the back. Collingwood did it pretty well. Our heavy scoring has masked it to an extent.

I think it works pretty well. Other than the Patriots getting the 50/50 calls go their way, the NFL is well officiated. Pass interference and defensive/offensive holding are probably the most subjective decisions, as most of the other fouls are either there or not (e.g. defensive offside, false start). It is like Rugby League in that the movement is not 360 degrees, plus all fouls except Defensive Pass Interference have set penalties, and the yard markers mean a 50 can't be 75 or 35 for example. Surely for 50 metre penalties the umpire awarding the 50 could stand at the place of the infringement and the umpire in the next zone moves to the mark with the help of a laser marker generated from the first umpires' GPS tracker.

Norf get the most unbelievable run from the maggots EVERY week. Ben Brown is the worst diver in the league but no media will ever mention it.

I wonder if the same 3 umpires working together every week, like the officiating crews in the NFL do, would improve consistency and decision making.

Pies have had the best run with the umps all season, and surprise, surprise they are now in the top 4. Same for North and they are in the 8. Watch out for Essendon to get a similar run with the maggots.

Go Blues!!!

Pies and Tigers in top 4 = mega $$$$$$$$ for AFL.

AFL know what they are doing.

Norf are umpires pets. So many soft frees every week.

Yep. I reckon City Hall want us in the finals - just not sure where. Top 4 please Gil.

Essendon start on their AFL endorsed run to the finals.

I see we got Matthew Nicholls umpiring. Guessing he will find a few frees against Maxy. Clown. We have been well backed - in from $2.50 to $2.30.

Would the players who travelled but don't play fly back Friday night or Saturday morning to play for Casey?

I'm very relaxed about Friday's game. I think we have them covered. Only caveat is the umpires. Watch us get Nicholls and Wallace.

Oddly enough, I think Essendon played there in early years of the VFL.
