Much like Brayshaw changing direction into Maynard's flying bump/attempt to smother ... if he doesn't change direction Maynard may only just clip him Great argument, except that you're wrong about there ever being any possibility of Maynard missing Brayshaw. Watchthe front on replay (1 min 14 into ...

If that were the case wouldn't the poor decisions be the same but be equally split between teams so free kick counts would not be so ridiculously one sided?

Yep. 100%

What do we know about the current senior umpiring group? Most seem athletic enough, not many spew at 3/4 time or cramp up. We know they are largely respectful of each other's decisions, not demurring even when they know a mistake has been made. Nice tight and supportive. We know they have collectiv...

typo mate, just a typo.

That's a very interesting analysis cwrcyn, well done! With a 2-5 record after 7 games St Kilda have certainly not followed up on their good form last year when they also started the season with a long injury list. The big difference this year is that unlike in 2023 in most games St Kilda have not p...

In a few weeks we get a lot of players back! Hopefully not too many more get injured in the meantime?! Clark - 1 week King - 1 week Henry - 2 weeks Webster - 1 week Wood - 1 week Paton - 2 weeks Crouch - 2 weeks Hayes - playing VFL Dow - playing VFL That’s 9 players in the next 1-3 weeks returning ...

So there you go

He was always going to re-sign.

This thread makes you wanna cry..very sad reading

Arie not far away./

3 weeks for Higgins is an AFL effing sick joke, but who is really surprised

Campbell deserves a game if Marshall is out.

One kick-in took too long, Port had covered all exits,
Nas kicked to Hill, Hill kicked short to Nas, it was turned over, and S*x Pest-Pepper snapped a goal.
Stuff like that which has us shaking our heads

Yep.

4. Marshall

Yeah maybe but Port don't look like world beaters either

Ross Lyon was very clear on where the game was lost When the journalists informed him about the free kick count, he said; "That's not what cost us the game" That is Ross Code for - It cost us the game Later he asked the margin - and when told 10 points he said 'with a 25 to 10 free kick c...

Certainly was bizzare. The Garcia comment was very strange. Had no idea who was 25 and who was 10 apparently in the free kick count..yeah right. Just my opinion and it stands out like a sore thumb of late but something just doesn't add up with him. Yeah it was bulls*** wasn't it. His later comment ...

Cancel Crows games it 4.8 per game more

That significant

Over such a long period- it should be neutral - level

It was both home teams combined, not just Port

B M is correct

Of course they are.

I'm sorry . Saints wont win a game in serial killer city until there is a level playing field and the maggots give both teams the same treatment... 25 free kicks to 9 is not a fair go or a fair reflection of the game. Taylor said that Port had received over 400 more free kicks than opposition sides ...

Full Time ..frees 21 to 8 Eff me.

3/4 time. Frees 16 to 6. Effing joke.

11 free kicks to 3 at half time. Dullboys allowed to throw the ball and tackle saints players over the shoulder with impunity. Effing maggot cheats.

Yeah yeah I know we are effing terrible anyway.

7 free kicks to 2. I thought I counted 9 to 1. two effing goals too.

the only good thing about Canberra is that you don't have to pass through it to get anywhere. Now now Canberra is one of the best cities in the best country in the world, Manuka was sold out last saturday and the locals love the AFL . Well those that originally came nouth not south do. Effing leagu...

Hayes, Howard and Hastie are the emergencies
