Discussion Round 10: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Herbie66]

Yeah yeah, probably a different discussion if the Papley free won Sydney the game hey.. 🤔👌

Not quite sure what that has to do with Ward's free kick , I am positive that the free was for high contact , but you don't agree , so just asked the question what it was paid for ?

 

[BomberArmy]

It's getting hot in here

Dont mind me, just ropable mostly at my own team, but the umps didnt help.. the beers also don't help.. 😂

love the banter, but to cheekily change the subject, how good was Draper after quarter time, definitely replacing Daniher next year when he limps to Sydney. 😜

Replacing Daniher? Draper is a ruck, replacED TBC already more like it!

Haha, mate I am with you all the way. Tough night. Next week we'll see if we can win the epic 22 v 25 battle

If he didn’t keep giving mummy frees he could have gone 100 i reckon lol

Glad to see someone celebrated International Beer Day in style.

Fair enough



And the 50 against McKenna ?

.

If they'd paid the blatant 50 to McKenna earlier in that passage of play??? Nah, just let Shaw drag him down and stop him participating in the play. Play on.

Good to see a genuine talent working through the ranks. He goes alright.

Would be nice if Big Joey D could at least give us supporters a few farewell games before the seasons out... 😢

Chin up mate , 1853 here

you should have joined me and @Ironhawk head-to-head game a few weeks ago

as frustrating as it it (and believe me I know) just have a bit of fun with your side for the final 8 weeks , try a few different players.

I have learnt not to compare my score to all the guns on here , and just try and improve a little each week

I'm happy for you to join our fun H-H comp too @Grundogging. If you are interested, let myself or Herbie know and we will sort it out. It has been good competition so far, we all scored within 50 points of each other this round.

Lads......the umpiring this year has been the worst that I can remember.

I could mention a certain umpire that has awarded 48 frees against and 5 frees for in the last 4 games that he has officiated in against the Tigers ( not to mention the amount of 50m penalties ) but I wont.

They have a bugger of a job which is not helped by the constant greying of the rules, so best we learn to deal with it.

Aynyway I'm off to the Rnd 11 trades thread.

Ridley rib concerns outlined by Abbey Holmes just before on Channel 7.
No more info other than just saying it looks like their could be some rib concerns.

Dipper would have stayed on the ground.

 

[BomberArmy]

How the **** did Z.Williams get 105 SC points? Remember seeing him twice... 🤔

 

[KLo30]

Interesting picture. Umpire may have got it correct.

I'll take Draper's 35 points less than Gawn and keep the $645,000 from the trade thankyou very much!

I posted when he was on 95 that I hadn’t seen him once. Admittedly I wasn’t watching every minute (have to check Fanfooty scores and the posts on here!) but that one snuck up on me.

If you pay this you have to pay a free against Heath Shaw for concussing Townsend. McKernan was doing nothing except trying to get the ball which is all Heath Shaw was trying to do.
I've posted before that I think the umpires are over coached and the AFL are very reactionary and the players are all over it. If the AFL was serious about protecting the head they would penalise the player causing the head contact and in this case it's Ward because he deliberately leads with the head knowing he might get a free kick. Everyone's talking about the way he fell but the way he went into the contest was the problem. Throws his head at McKernan, gets a free kick, wins the game! Why wouldn't he keep hitting his head against the opponent?


Anything else while on my soapbox?
