If the umpire didn't hear so be it he only gives decisions on what they see or hear or do we now just say that if a player says he touched it it must be so. Stop blaming umpires for everything it's a damm hard job, players make more mistakes than umpires during the game yet all supporters can say it's the umpires fault we lost the game.
No game with officiating officials is not perfect.
i can't think of another 'professional' league where the 'officiating officials' are part-timers
how do you accordingly hold them to account? in the afl, they don't

he's looking the goods as a tall defender

if i was in charge of the peptides, i'd let McGrath go as a free agent at the end of the year if you got a band 1 compo pick for him
pros:
- he is clearly a leader around the club
- he speaks will in the mediacons:
- if he's a leader, what does it say about their leadership?
- he can't play midfield (cos he's too slow)
- he's not the #1 rebound defender (that's martin)
- he's arguably not their #2 rebound defender (that's laverde)
- he's not 'smart' enough to play on the #1 small forward (rioli tore him to shreds in the first half, which was all i saw)so is he really worth keeping given he's probably going to want to be paid like a #1 pick expects to be?

Robbos just an average bloke with alcoholic dementia,doing an average job,for an average paper and an average radio station and tv show with a below average IQ and hygeine regimen.I actually tip my hat to the poor c.nt.He's the highest achieving slob we've had in Australia since Sir Les Patterson and he isn't even a parody.

Wigg before ANB was a bald selection
it's a bit disingenuous tho - forgarty and wigg were both 'local products'

I don’t think so Demonstrrative I think that only applied to JJ because he was drafted and then put on the Rookie List, once he was elevated back to senior list ha became UFA at the end of his contract.
and the most annoying thing is that basically doesn't apply any more
we got stuffed by an arbitrary rule change that has since changed, again

Salem will not play midfield all year does not have the tank for that he would blow out just like Kossie, Salem is only good for short bursts he foes not get involved enough for midfield.
he was set for midfield for the season prior to bowey being broken

Why pidgen hole players if we take your thinking Neita and McDonald would never have played forward, Flower played HB and there is more of them, I would sooner a class finisher in the midfield because we have a lack of class there.
ANB, Sparrow and Rivers lack football awareness and tend to panic when they try to think things through they did it again last night, they are good when they take the first option and that's their strength.
but why change it when he's 30 games in and settled and a key part of our most important area?
it's not just about his excellent ball use for me; it's about how good he is defensively

Just have a gut feel that Alastair Clarkson's coaching stint at Norf won't end well.
there's a lot of pagan at the baggers about it

Simple, he has ball skills, awareness, foot skills and is a thinking footballer exactly what we need in the midfield to have a bit of polish to finish of the work.
true, but he's settled, playing great footy, and we set up to rebound defensively - which is why he's quickly become such a key player for us
i don't understand the fascination of taking a key player in one part of the ground and moving him into another

4. McVee is developing into our very own Corey Enright. Cat like reflexes, doesn't ever go to ground, sublime foot skills and as clean as a whistle.
great call on the enright comparison

Should be now, but could be when Bowey comes back.
why?
it'd be pretty easy to argue that there's not a better small defender currently playing in the afl
his commitment to whole team defence and ability to use the ball so efficiently out of d50 makes him an absolute weapon
we've got ourselves a beauty

Anderson is not a lovely chap. He was responsible for initiating the tanking investigation. He is no friend of the MFC.
facetious post didn't work when written down, perhaps...

anb over rankine on the half-forward flank and spaz over anyone on the bench

the only way he gets a week is if it comes down as medium contact, and i remain confident we'll try and get it downgraded to low, and a fine
just don't hire adrian anderson as our representative; he's a lovely chap, but i can't recall the last time he had a win at the tribunal

can't see sideshow bob being dropped
he's in form, the side is playing well, and he has a bye coming up after the bears match-up

either no change or pup brown in for pickett
laurie, kolt, and sestan all lack pace / smarts at ground level i50 or are being developed as mids
amw is building as a half-back and showed minimal forward craft at ground level
billings won't be dropped - played in starvation corner and was a key part of our dominance in the third quarter
his field kicking is nice, his goal kicking disastrous

i don't see how it can be graded as 'medium'
the crom player didn't go off to be assessed - shirley it has to be graded as 'low'

he'll cop a week and we'll go to the tribunal to get it downgraded to a fine

Mystery of the night for me.
Who is the chick who was in one of the world’s most iconic girl groups but nobody recognizes her?
My problem is that I don’t recognize her.
