That's what Roos thinks.

Yes we can, it was wrong. You are allowed to play on if you are behind your mark, in some cases even if you are in front of it, even if the angle is not what some over officious umpire wants you to be on. Ling described it as bizarre and there was unanimous agreement from the other commentators, most of whom are ex players. Our coach described it as bewildering and was furious. It was a momentum killer and in a close game where we were given 5 free kicks for the whole afternoon.

Unfortunately for the game, you are right.

You gotta love the holding the ball rule, when the opposition are actually in possession under a pack, or the ball is loose and yet you get pinged. Absolutely ridiculous. The umpires just guess and usually go with the stronger club.

Let me say this unequivocally, the umpires didn't cost us the game, but boy are they bad. I am sick of the big clubs getting all the soft ones.

I think we have another record. The lowest free kick count ever in a game, 5.

Should be a big crowd as weather looks ok.

I smell too much hype for us this week and following a NT game last week, would not be surprised to see a poor performance. On the other hand!!!!!!!!!!

Great game by Steph Martin. Will probably carry the Lions rucks for the rest of the year, if he can stay fit.

A Trip to Italy, a film to avoid.

MM master whinger.

If it is Stef it has taken nearly all talls to be out before he was considered. Beamer also struggling. Both will be delisted at year's end.

Something to take Home with you on a cold and lonely night

What the coach says (Roger Hayden): Josh is going well. He had a few issues with injury but got back at the start of pre-season and worked his way into it and started getting some good miles in the leg. He’s just starting to get into some footy now, so looking forward to the year ahead. AFL Fantasy: Given the depth of Freo’s squad, it’s not advisable to pick Simpson at this stage of the season. Season 20132013 Season by Season Season by SeasonIt was a development year for the club’s top pick from the 2012 draft. Simpson made his AFL debut in round 23 and showed flashes of the ability that made him a sought after recruit. Happy to keep the education and knowledge content up on the thread.

Make sure it is not from a footballer.

Now don't go turning this highbrow educational thread into something silly.

Who is Josh Simpson?

Just noticed Gary Rohan in for the Swans. Not sure if he has been injured or just out of the side. He could be a player we could target.

Yuk. Too much info.

Too bright.

A banana diet can add years to your life.

Ah the sweet aroma of banana flowers first thing in the morning.

The versatility of this fruit.

How in hell does the best thread on Demonland, this one of course, get off the front page of the board? Outrageous. That is as bad as not taking a date to the Gat yearly ball.

Zoe looks like Brynne Edelsten's grandfather in drag. She and WJ make a lovely couple. They would be the King and Queen of the annual Gat Ball.
