Fulltime umpires wouldn’t make any difference…
They aren’t going to be any better decision makers or bounce better by being full time.

That Collins htb was rubbish and he didn’t even have the ball.. especially after the missed Collingwood htbs in the same passage of millers legs being taken out from him.

To be fair they were down to two on the bench about 5 mins into the second quarter..
They were at least competitive for a quarter down there.. ten mins in we are normally sitting on the bus

A Wallaby 2 pt win over the Poms.

North lock away pick 1 and a priority pick.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Umpires really went in raw on GC there.

North will get a priority pick, just hope it’s end of first round. Kicked three goals to none in a five minutes burst Q1. Outside of that, it was 143-13.

Yeah Gold Coast still looks like a disaster pick for Australian sport.

Ginnivan also going to his knees sliding in for the footy, takes out Touk Miller's legs - nothing.

That was a blatant non call . The rule was bought in for that very reason .

Agreed. Juxtaposed against the free which went the Pies way mere seconds later, it didn't look good.

 

[Truckosaurus]

Pick 1's still on the table if the Roos beat Geelong tonight.

No doubt Collingwood fans will find this and make a big song and dance because Ginnivan. This has nothing to do with him being a laughably relentless cheat and everything to do with that being a shocking non call.

For decades, that was brave and ridiculously tough footy. I have no issue with it being adjudicated that way if that’s what we’re doing. You almost have to take Ginnivan’s head off, uh, hat off because it’s excellent commitment to the contest. But how can you bring in a sliding in below the knees rule, based on choosing to go to ground, and then not pay that?

I honestly have no issue if it’s not a free but can we then just scrap the rule as its clearly not working? It was brought in for player safety and that’s a leg breaker waiting to happen, because one player voluntarily went to ground while the other player kept his feet and gained possession of the football.

Worst part is it isn’t remotely the harshest call the Suns copped in the run home.

 

[FKASC]

Wish it could all click for GC. They just kept bombing it long to Moore. A forwardline of King, Rankine, Chol, Jefferies, Ainsworth and Rosas is pretty potent

 

[Truckosaurus]

I assume after years of calling contact below the knees for players running into an opponent on the ground that the umpires have just forgotten what it was actually supposed to be.

 

[Ochre]

Such a Gold Coast game, so many good signs and they could've won, but they didn't.

 

[Quinz]

Hopefully no one threw these out

 

[southcoast]

Could mean they want to move to Tassie.

 

[DanWCE]

Just a couple of blokes admiring the Travis Head deliveries

 

[Truckosaurus]

You don't want to know what's going on behind the sign with this guy.

I can only guess 'North' is the nickname he gave his right hand

Indeed

17th suits me given the current situation.
We aren't even going to threaten finals. I don't want a spoon.
I can't see us getting the three games extra (2 + %) needed to get to 16th, so it's become pretty much a 17th lock.

That gives us pick 4.
Norf pick 1. (Wardlaw?)
Norf priority pick 2 take 1 - Ashcroft to Bne,
Norf pick 2 take 2. (Busslinger?)
WCE pick 4.

North is not getting pick 2 as a priority pick when we have a % in the 50s (so have also had a shocking year). People give Nisbett shit but his connections would prevent that kind of blatant disregard for our situation.

They will probably get an end of first round (which they must trade), priority access to state league players to rookie and some AFL appointed administrators to fix their off-field shambles.

Or, the AFL commission gives them nothing, which signals they plan for them to die off and Tassie to take their place.

 

[CursoryMercenary]

North's record under Noble 5 wins 1 Draw 30 losses.

Interesting to note 2 of those wins came against us

Can we stop with the Tassie fallacy

The state refuses and good on em

Freos intro for the game reminds me of the mighty ducks.
