Maybe the players could do this.

 

[ferball]

I reckon you just laugh at them

Then they'll start giving players 50s for laughing.

Which would be funny as ****.

 

[DuckYeah]

Oh **** off Brad, ask yourself the question? You between the ages of 18-33 be able to stand there and cop a bullshit decision? Ship off campaigner

 

[Lomas]

If the rule is strictly no dissent, then nothing wrong with asking what the decision was for. Or expressing frustration. As long as you don't express a different opinion it's not dissent.
Should be able to train players how to question, query, berate themselves but not dissent.
But.. umps need to own up and be accountable when they make a clear mistake.

Exactly!

Which would be funny as fu**.

And Luke would be stuffed with his resting giggle face.

less people will go to games and those that do go will make up for the reduced onfield umpire abuse tenfold as they make their way off of it.

How ironic that one of the most demonstrative players, is now making rules about dissent. How the tables have turned!

You think we hate BS now……you think he’s not gunna be involved in the PP decision? If we are in need of a PP, portion of blame sits pretty squarely on his shoulders, he won’t cop that.
Just like he graciously chose the “walk away from North when he wasn't the right man anymore” move, provided he got paid for the following year.
Actually can’t stand the clown

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Stop saying PP.

 

[apollo_creed]

Mark me down in the Brad Scott was and still is a ****ing w***er camp as well.

 

[LB2Snake]

Stop saying PP.

Superstitious SDS?

Superstitious SDS?

Of all the people at HQ, he'd be about the only one who would give us a fair hearing over a PP.

 

[see see]

All credit to the AFL for identifying the perfect useful idiot to spruik the no dissent rule. No-one's better at irrationally and doggedly adhering to a demonstrably sh*t strategy than Braddles.

 

[Psicosis]

It’s great that now it’s not only North Melbourne supporters hate Brad Scott.

How the guy who is largely responsible for the leagues current biggest basketcase list, is absolutely damning.

Geez I have quite the opposite view. It’d be like him admitting he got things wrong.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Scott has done more to increase vitriol towards umps than anything else. Does he think fans arent going to react to umps calling 50 for having players hold their arms out?

I get there's a shortage of umps. But he never explained the link between AFL players arguing with umps and these shortages.

I get the paying 50 for obvious abuse.

But adult relationships aren't built on this 'hold out your arms and its 50' stuff.

I remember a story where Carey was giving it to an ump. The ump turns around and tells him to shut the **** up and get a kick. Love it.

They’ve created a solution to a problem that never existed.

Standard.
