Re: tackilng with no reward

not sure when it became the rule but grabbing possession and then letting go when tackled, either play on or holding the man. since when has this been ok? thought if you grab ball and let go it is either "incorrect disposal" or "dropping the ball" to many things going on in the c...

Re: How can they possibly tell?

I was really disappointed that both were overturned. As far as I’m concerned If all umpires being (Boundary, Field and Goal) are happy it’s a goal and the opposition aren’t trying to call for touched the goal should stand. I thought the point of the review after each goal was to ensure they haven’t ...

Re: Saints v Swans match thread

Embarrassing pathetic and lazy is all you can report for the saints this game at this stage. Disposals.... poor... defensive running..... non existent... forward line failing mccartin def not ready for afl. Even if he kicks 10 last quarter goals. Bruce may not be kicking them but provides a 50-50 co...

If he goes for a one motion tackle after should just drop the tackle and make it touch footy.... had less in it then mummy's last week. Especially seeing as he got the free FFS

Re: POLL: Longer or Hickey vs. GWS?

Had to go longer. Hickey had 4 attempts to show he is off pace this year both around ground and in ruck. Longer should get the same especially against the monster rucks IE Mumford

Re: Votes v Lions round 3

5 - Roo. Big game all round. No matter where he played he exposed the lions 4 - Joey. Did enough early but putting him in the midfield ended up being the difference, a cool experienced head 3- Brown. Cops a massive knock but lets be honest, he is showing us more and more that he is that defender we ...

Re: Joey time wasting in goal square

in Fagan's words The coach had no issue with St Kilda veteran Leigh Montagna's decision to run a few seconds off the clock in the last quarter when he held on to the ball in the goalsquare, instead of kicking it immediately. "Joey's been a humble champion for a long time and I wouldn't have tho...

Re: Joey time wasting in goal square

I thought it was terribly unsportsmanlike. He ought to be ashamed and the club should fine him. Arrogance and disrespect for the opposition should never be tolerated. Without getting too far off track and into very dodgy territory, I think there should be some kind of moral standard and that falls ...

Re: Joey time wasting in goal square

i think it was a really smart move
didnt rub it in. Gave the boys a slight rest, killed brisbanes confidence and killed 10 seconds
if he was waving it around its one thing, making a joke of it taunting them etc. Just the move of a smart experienced footballer

We were not expecting to win this game so not that important. We are honestly going to be on the end a massive hiding simply because west coast is better.

Re: We Need A Bit Of Perspective Please

Only real positives to come out of that game is we can't do much worse and only lost by 30 points. Our forward line didn't fire 2ND game in a row. Midfield blown away. Back line did OK considering the delivery and lack of midfield pressure.. This week I wouldn't make massive changes. Maybe the week ...
