[Upgrayedd]

Just doing enough to win. We're playing poorly. Luckily brown hast made too much of an influence yet

 

[Off The Couch]

Interesting call

 

[Off The Couch]

Confidence boost for Omith

 

[Upgrayedd]

Interesting call

Sometimes langford really irks me

Then he does stuff like shoves Thompson over like that and i remember hes alright

 

[HawkMongrel]

lol Thompson, couldn't have happened to a nicer twat.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Mitchell lazy there. Could have laid the tackle on the boundary

There was a whistle from the crowd (not the first time it's happened in tassie). He turned to the ump asking for 50 before he realised it was play on

 

[HawkMongrel]

Hartung is a really ordinary footballer.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

Love a good score review, best part of the game.

 

[HBF]

Surely Burgoyne dropped that.

 

[BluesMan]

Has to be htb

 

[Stax on the mill]

Josh Kelly apparently now refusing to take Brad Scott's phone calls. Wants Nathan Buckley's number.

I have a hero named Leigh Mathews who sometimes needs to be reminded of marks etc, trying to make the grab that Sicily took, that was punched clean out of his hands by a Kangaroo, when Sicily had TOTAL control of the ball!
It was a real mark.
Where as the mark by Brown in the first quarter that Leigh made his comment on about, after Sicily MARKED and BT had bulldusted on about it. Browns was not a mark .
He fell from sky high, only just holding onto it with no control , and it freely bounced out of his hands. That was not a mark Leigh!

Now that lady umpire may just have been saying , "well mate you actually have to catch the thing these days" ! Yes????

Too many dodgy and touched marks being paid and thrown around these days , there is no half measure in control, there is only you've caught the bloody thing, or you've dropped it on the ground, if its that ITS NOT A MARK.

Last night one of Kennedys (WCE) marks was touched by about 2 opponents before it was called a mark, he goaled , what is touched??
I saw it called this week and I haven't seen a touched ball IN PACK MARKING CALLED for ages , only its touched off the boot, called by an umpire. .

Skill going downward folks.

And its time our game started calling what is real and what isn't, and what is too fast too quick to adjudicate
"oh I'll call it a mark" no you won't if , ITS NOT!

Sound pedantic , LOOK AT THE BLOODY RULES THAT COST GAMES AND SCORES NOW!

So congratulations to the lady umpire, plenty of guts to call a dropped ball! So many chickens in the male fraternity of umpiring , the ones who won't call anything inside a teams 50 m arc?

 

[Off The Couch]

Getting smashed in clearances - hopefully a couple of mids are on the shopping list

 

[Tassieboy]

How can you make a genuine attempt when the ball is between your legs?

 

[Page8383]

HTB?!?

Seriously ... That is below standard

 

[Vindicater]

Both teams playing 8 man defense.

Hawthorn try to work around that with kicks.

North just bomb it to wherever the spare Hawthorn man is.

"was leaving an expansion team and 3 premierships to play for collingwood worth it mate. Not sure ill catch you down at the lexus center"

 

[Vindicater]

And as I say that Scott Thompson kicks straight to a two on one.

 

[tony dragun]

Hahahahahahaha, No.

Yes. Umps have been crap for years. Just injecting a greater level of crapness.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

I'm really surprised, I didn't think Hawthorn wanted another goal before 1/2 time.

 

[Off The Couch]

Good boy Teia

 

[HBF]

15 shots to 7.
Pretty one sided game.

****ing horrible umpire

 

[Upgrayedd]

Yes. Umps have been crap for years. Just injecting a greater level of crapness.

Nothing to do with her gender. Yelling her send her to the womans league. You can call her shithouse without that shit. Females are just as capable of being bog average umpires as the male counetrparts
