Forecast for Sunday is 4deg going up to 18deg with no rain. Looks perfect for footy

So he has a better record than Petty?

8 weeks If it was Toby Greene

He is the 5th one...

I agree. The midfield let us down in that game.

The umpires definitely talk to each other during games. They call frees, blocks etc. Watch for holding at the stoppage etc Has been going on for a long time What's new here is that someone is sitting in the stands giving feedback. Not necessarily on individual decisions I suspect but holding off the ball, someone like Max being targeted behind play etc

I didn't watch the game last night. What's the verdict?

Fair enough. But the only opinion I am interested in is JT!

So was Mac Andrew

Chad Warner went pick 39 Gulden went pick 32 No one saw any value in them before that Who cares what others think?

They came out firing. Refused to kick long to Lever, May went off early from memory. Dirty ball into our fwd 50 where we struggle to stop it and rebound. Expect no different this time. We need a first qtr as intensive as last game. But with better kicking. Freo have never played this ground so hopefully that gives us an edge.

Or the public Is it any wonder the umpires get abused for not abiding by the rules when the rules are changed without watchers knowing? Why the secrecy? Oh its the AFL...

None of this is news. Ever since they allowed unlimited interchange to 'speed up the game' we have had congestion. It is a fact that if interchanges are reduced players will fatigue sooner and they simply can't run as far (except for the likes of say Langdon) The coaches scream that injuries will increase but I don't buy it for a second. Because the players won't be able to run manically for 4 quarters. Collision impacts will likely reduce because you won't have powerful, fit players cannoning into other players.They will naturally pick and choose when to run and when to tackle etc. Never ever listen to coaches about the state of the game. They couldn't care less how it looks.

Sanctity? Integrity? Two words that should never be in the same sentence as the AFL

Because then it's rugby

Yep And his two last seasons with the Crows he was subbed off 6 times.

Well you know what they say... You Can lead a horse to water…. But a pencil must be led I'll see myself out now.

The word 'Gay' wants its original meaning back

The front on rule is also a joke. As is the Goodes sliding the knees. The way Goodes used to slide in was dangerous. Now we have players theatrically diving over a player on the ground to try and elicit a free (ANB is a culprit) While we are at it the Intentional OOB, the protected area, the stand rule The interpretations of all of these are farcical.

It should be immediate. If you get tackled you have to immediately attempt to dispose of the ball. Simples.

Well know the rule works if Cripps can no longer do 720degree turns while looking to dish off a handball

Jvr got coaches votes Is doing something right He is also being asked to do roles that the other young key fwds aren't being asked to do Is doing well imo

Has anyone told the umpires? Watch the overreaction this weekend Rule of the week will see 30 HTBs every game

Cut and paste style difference

I have but there are reasons he's 28yo with only 50 games. Not writing him off but have very low expectations. Not happy with the way kozzie is trying to look after him at every opportunity when there are better options
