No - we are the AFL's example puppet

There was only ever going to be one outcome We are an easy target ... just a small kid in the neighbourhood and the perfect punchbag for the AFL to establish precedence or to warn other smaller clubs One rule for some ..... another rule for others We are marked and have been for a long time How to ...

Never been suspended or fined. It seems the good bloke clause is out the window. Oh yeah, he plays for St Kilda. What a joke and farce. Club will say nothing “We accept blah blah blah” Cop the fine , come out and say this is incompetent, totally inconsistent and clearly rules for some …not all” Jus...

Sure - by one from Tim Membrey - but also our most points

Bombers Pies Blues Tigers ….get off this …
It’s just utter garbage

Particularly with the amount of bad publicity it has received during talk back ……. As in end of the tackle etc

We should not only be used to it by now, we should be enjoying it.

Most of us know to bring our own Vaseline

We argued to get it thrown out, but if not they're arguing exceptional circumstances to reduce. The issue is you only get one chance to put out an argument. You can't come back after being rejected to having it thrown out to try and reduce it. You go hard to throw it out on the grounds there isn’t ...

2 Wanganeen-Milera
1 Hill

Aliir 196cm powerfully built Higgins 177cm small forward To assume Aliir didn’t contribute by doing the mid air kick would be laughable. And that is the crux of it - it was a MID AIR kick - as in the ball fell loose from his shoulder so he took a wild swing at it - in an upwards projecting arc - ie...

Maybe MC needs the hessian bag (sack)

Free kick counts are meaningless. You need to look at individual decisions. With the game on the line at the start of the last quarter the umpires gave three soft frees to Port which resulted in shots at goal. The first two missed: NWM holding the ball without any prior opportunity, Battle punching...

Lets call it what it is - not cheating - but incompetence by overpaid non-professional un-professionals

Well, we must have a chance because David King said on First Crack that he believes he should get off. If Higgins does not get off the penalty should be down graded due to Alir's contributing negligence trying to kick the ball and then failing to make any effort to protect himself. It was not even ...

I reckon this thread would have been 6 pages long by now if the AFL hadn't hacked Saintsational last night Did anyone else suspect a DDoS attack? This site was out of action for over an hour or two https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/ddos/what-is-a-ddos-attack/ Absolutely - I knew it the moment I t...

Apparently they are appealing based on Aliir Aliir contributing to the impact On another note the following comments should all be printed and given in defense. https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=977942914335210&set=a.450574547072052 Apart from a few they all seem to wonder WTF the AFL is going.

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...

We’re -2 for free kicks across the whole season. So what does that say? That they cheated tonight. I understand, so they’ve now balanced out the games they cheated for us this year with the games they cheated against us. Sounds fair, swings and roundabouts 👍 Hey Dud - explain this one for me: https...

I am up for $50 contribution to costs - lol - who else is on board for a Class Action???

I know it is rhetorical - but No

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...

Why are we still talking about Billings?

Fractured ankles are the worst!!!

In whispered tones some liken him to a combination of Dean Cox, Chris Judd and Garry Ablett Snr. with Dunstall and Lockett like traits.
