  1. The MRO and the tribunal, in fact the entire AFL are a farce - some may even consider corrupt.
  2. 😮😮😮. Did he assassinate the umpire??
  3. Is data available re which umpire awards how many frees for and against which team? One tonight stood out - won’t say which one for fears of accusations of sexism.
  4. I missed the incident where May is said to be at risk. Anything in it? Ambivalent re Jefferson - showed endeavour and kicked a beautiful set shot. But if Kentfield has a blinder tomorrow he may replace Jeffo.
  5. One or two may be put down to incompetence; tonight all went one way and together with our ineptitude made the difference. At least 4 goals that they got were from incorrect decisions.
  6. Tunnelling by Carlton - fee to them, goal. Bloody hell - one could imagine that umpires have some ulterior motive? Some talk about punting during the week - how widespread is it?
  7. Was it that, or one umpire saying the man on the mark as ok and the faraway one thought no? Absolutely horribly adjudicated rule.
  8. The rules say there must be DEFINITE evidence to overrule the goal umpire’s call. Maybe just when it “suits the agenda”! No wonder people suggest that the AFL might be corrupt, incompetent, or both.
  9. Stringer #2???
  10. I was thinking the same thing be Harry Petty. Maybe just giving him half a game?? Clearly they do I guess they see more of them, and how they fulfil their roles.
  11. 👻 - you haven’t included finals 🤔😮
  12. MFCSS is an incurable condition, even though (such as in 2021) there can be remissions. Relapses sadly are inevitable, though some sufferers are more adversely affected than others.
  13. Mods - we need the 🤔thinking embark BT?? Please. And Derwayyne
  14. Indeed. “Past it”, “Goody’s mate”, too old, too slow etc. I may even be guilty of being part of the baying mob, for which I humbly and deeply apologise.
  15. Dee-vina Simms it up beautifully. What actually is “selection integrity” and does it (whatever it is) change as the season consolidates or unravels, as the case may be?? At this stage I suspect it should be planning ahead, thus for example Billings’ good performances at Casey may not be rewarded in the same way as a younger player. I would also think that the likes of Woewoden, Brown and Laurie should get some senior games, in continuity, unless their cards are marked already as I suspect some have been.
