Good to see Cox being allowed to wrestle in the ruck and Nic Nat come over the top in ruck duels. Only Hickey and McEvoy aren't allowed it seems.

This is your problem Curly. You see every incident as the same but they arent. The one you are talking about now is nothing like the one yesterday. I suppose that makes it hard to discuss things with you because it isnt black and white but you think it is.

its is a very effective ruck tactic, and completely legal under the rules

Of course it is legal that's the point. Hickey was penalized for it yesterday.

Nothing like yesterday and thats my point. You try and compare things that arent the same.

It was 140 possessions to 50 at quarter time. Pretty hard to get many frees if you haven't had the ball.

what's your excuse for the maggots for their pathetic efforts in the 2 and 3rd quarters then???....15 frees to 8 and we were breaking even
It's not about an excuse. It's about taking off the point the finger/blame glasses and sucking it up that sometimes umpires get it wrong but in the long run it comes out roughly even. And that there's a correlation between losing and being down the bottom of the ladder and the number of frees you win. Being second to the ball, having less possessions, laying less tackles, winning less contested possession - you're going to get fewer free kicks.

Come on Stinger - you must at least see beyond the kind of kneejerk blind one-eyed-ness that is Curly's fave thing. Or have you been taking the same pills as him? Joke :)

Some people just get so habituated into bagging the umpires that they can't watch the footy any other way. It doesn't have to be that way.

There was nothing different at all. Two rucks jostled the other over the top. No difference.

Completely different. Hickey stood in the other ruckmans way and didnt even attempt to go for the ball. tonight the other ruckman was third man up. Curly you have to get treatment. the rule book would be a good start.

Watch again. Im sure you will. You probably have a library of umpire errors in your opinion.

Umpires can never be wrong as you have proved they just choose when their right and to whom.

Umpires make mistakes every week. The problem is some of the ones you point out arent mistakes.
