  1. it's never been off a stationary hand that i can remember must be clearly moved off by clenched fist (not open palm) off the holding hand *** *** except during short period flick pass was allowed again it's umpire interpretation that has changed plus more players with super fast handballs now umps previously didn't give benefit of doubt if it looked "dodgy" now they do unless they clearly see a throw (which can be quite problematic) of course players take full advantage of the ump's reluctance and game it. i've always called for some expert slow motion video examination to study and determine how much real throwing is going on but i don't think the afl could give a rat's rz
  2. your first mistake was trying to explain afl rules to a non-follower
  3. played with no system the whole game gaping holes and bad decision making everywhere, not to mention horrible disposal just hope it's a one-off
  4. i've only watched the last half of the 2nd quarter and casey seem to be playing with no energy at all so slow, lazy and sloppy. doesn't look like a casey team, more like a team of cardboard cut-outs better pull out the finger in the 2nd half
  5. joke, joyce knew it would trigger mr stone
  6. my expert instant eye analyser says 6'6" or in woke terms 198cm (4" shorter than max)
  7. i find it funny and somewhat gratifying to see what so many of us here forecast would happen so accurately, if dogga defected. he certainly leapt into the fire and made a rod for himself, but that is now his problem. karma, que sera and all that lot. and despite many 'landers woe-betiding we had been paid unders it looks like we have profited handsomely.
  8. well donny played for wa rep side and stuart played for tassy including a win over the vfl. not too shoddy. and btw the thread intro says nothing about vfl only/ they look like high profile exports to me.
  9. depending how far back you want to go.......donny williams, stuart spencer
  10. good job, but you left out 2 brownlow medallists
  11. he could have anything from a 24 hour sniffle to covid we just don't know will be a nervous wait
  12. please don't trigger redleg by mentioning hwfua
  13. so sorry, wcw, to see you've only been given a year to live. my condolences.
  14. and do you remember if it was "shazza" referred to?
  15. i think because 1. his feet stayed on the mark i.e. he wasn't over the mark 2. umpire thought sydney player went to play on a split second before clarrie reacted players have also been warned to not try and trick player on the mark to deliberately draw a 50m penalty. in this case though i thought the swans player was trying to play on. umpires are much quicker now to call play on either to slight movements off the line or deceptive play on actions.
  16. lol i was actually referring to a well known satirical piece (bigfooty iirc) about a day with the grog squad where shazza (iirc) was the fearsome head honcho. very politically incorrect some other poster might remember a link?
