The old straight arm block - The Gawn rule.
i'd call a block using your body using an arm would come under shepherding, holding, chopping or pushing.....but not a block reading those appallingly worded ruck rules i can only think what a joke the afl just seem totally unable to write the rules of the game adequately

Round 16 Non MFC Games
so true mono. especially the mad sprint forward, inevitably end up with no defense set and an easy kick to an unmarked man usually in the 50arc. net result an extra 2 kicks and a goal for something of no actual consequence. pmo

It's The Preseason Stupid
yes, go figure, but at least the club didn't question the reporting as they say, rjay....there is three truths....yours.....mine.....and the real truth

It's The Preseason Stupid
i'd have thought an official report to the board trumps a bit of media propaganda by the coach, wouldn't you?

It's The Preseason Stupid
bit unfair, bub players were unavailable due to 1) operations 2) shortened pre-season due to finals 3) injuries 4) extensive number and duration in rehab group over preseason whether he could have done better, i'm not in a position to really know but he was certainly up against major constraints in player availability

It's The Preseason Stupid
well that is in direct opposition to what misson told the board. he specifically quoted the deficient preseason loads achieved across the list with actual statistics......the required workloads were just not achieved and were so low it was worth highlighting to the board

It's The Preseason Stupid
the pre-season is certainly part of it, maybe a big part, but as others have said there is a lot of other things contributing. we don't seem to be making much of fist about anything. very disappointing

Round 15 Non MFC Games
yeah it shouldn't irk traditionalists. when i played there was no padding on posts. now with so much padding many goals are denied which does irk me, so this solution would be a good trade-off

Round 15 Non MFC Games
it would certainly make a huge difference, wyl and allow many more accurate decisions but it is still a 2 dimensional video and unless you have multiple cameras on different angles there will still be some incidents that will be hard to pin down. cricket still has problems with low down catches because of the 2 dimensional aspect perhaps multiple technologies (snicko, infrared etc). like in cricket, could be used but expensive, given it could occur in so many different non-fixed positions on the ground (unlike in cricket or around the goal posts).
