You’re going viral Mr Ripper or rather Ch7 are breaching your copyright lol

VFL rocked by ‘serious’ claims of blatant ‘cheating’

Players and fans had the wool pulled over their eyes with an act that could have compromised the result.

So Benny Thomas really had four goals from 13 disposals which is a great return for a small forward.

And Southport confirms once again the regard, or lack thereof, they have in Qld football.

Lost to them in a Reserves GF once. Think that result should be overturned based on today's revelation It's only fair.

I only ever experienced cheating as a teen playing Tallebudgera. Their home ground and lots of dodgy things such as bad calls, umpire throw ins landing short (due to the boundary umpire facing the players during throw ins). Still, we had a 5 point lead with a minute to go. They got a dubious free kick for a head high tackle (not near the head). The player took a shot and shanked it, nearly hit the behind post. The ump signalled a goal.

Us kids were furious, but seeing the parents get angry almost made it worth it

That’s what I thought; chances are they get a lot from BigFooty and some of the references to what people are saying could’ve come straight from various posts. Should’ve credited Mr Ripper.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Aw man

And to top it off; your picture and that shot for goal was the Closing Cook on Footy Classified tonight.

With Reville getting a call up, it should act as good motivation for Henry Smith, Morris & Brain to push for a debut as well.

Morris is named on the extended interchange (presumably won't be playing, but nonetheless indications that he's on the right track)

Would need to verify, but I'm pretty sure he has been for a few weeks now. An even better sign!

Sucks for Smith, but certainly helps our team balance up forward.

Morris will have a field day.
