doesn't matter. they can choose to, or choose not to follow them

Except it does matter

RULE 20.1.2 (b)
Protected Area

No player shall enter and remain in the protected area unless the field umpire calls “Play On” or the player from the opposing team is accompanying or following within 2 metres of their opponent.

————

Umpire did not call play on prior to Port player entering protected area so first condition is not met. Second condition is not met either as a Carlton player was not within 2 metres. Stevic was right to not let play on occur there.

Kenny has the blues right where he wants them.

I wonder what his celebration will be if he wins tonight ?

$20 on him copying Djokovic and eating the playing surface grass after a miraculous victory!!

 

[lizard man]

He's a potato

You think so? Thought he was a crafty small forward? Selwood seems to think he has a bit of talent

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

You can't deny it though?

Purely on viewer numbers and TV ratings, why wouldn't the AFL want that outcome.?

Mate we've been dogshit for 25 years. You really think the AFL give a crap about whether we win or lose?

 

[The 747]

I do like to hate on the Fox team, but Sarah Jones actually does a pretty decent job at hosting.

He's a state leaguer all day long.

 

[Mr Meow]

Feel like both teams have been a bit too defensive. Players look a touch hesitant out there with the new rulings and seem to have lost a bit of their dare through the middle.

The new rulings have nothing to do with it.

Both sides are just playing fairly poorly.

 

[Fadge]

Yes. It’s not that complicated. If the umpire tells you to do something, do it. If they don’t, defer to the rulebook.

You do realise how silly that is, don't you.

You're saying the rules say it's ok to place the ball on the ground when a ball up is called, except if the umpire asks you to give the ball straight back to them, in which case it's a free kick.

And you're happy with that?

 

[Plugger35]

Carlton have this won already.

If your players could kick straight you would be in front.

Looks like Port are using the same goal kicking coach that St Kilda and Freo are using.

 

[Hoops]

Boak loves a behind.

We all do

Yes I am happy with a free kick paid against a player that doesn’t follow the direction of the umpires

I wonder if he would be like my junior footy coach who would buy everyone a can of soft drink from the canteen after a good win. Keep spirits high for the boys.

 

[Fadge]

I can see why Sam Walsh handballs so much. Would have to be the worst kick in football. His kicking is going at around 17%

Despite all his kicks being when he's out in space.

Wowee.

 

[JimmyBC]

If your players could kick straight you would be in front.

Looks like Port are using the same goal kicking coach that us and Freo are using.

Our inside forward 50 work has been garbage for a decade it's like we try to make goals look like the hardest things in the world to achieve.

Despite a player doing something that he's apparently entitled to do...

learn something new every day i guess

 

[Elixuh]

In front?

You’re playing checkers. Kenny is playing 4d chess.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Yeah lol. Carlton are a money machine win or lose, unlike clubs like North, GC, Freo etc.

But I’m outside of the matrix - Kenny’s dreaming

Give out a McDonalds voucher for the players who gave the best efforts like in my Vickick/Auskick days

 

[RonnieRaven]

This is unwatchable, oh wait freo aren’t playing
Amazing first half, 4 goals to 5 at the main break.great attacking football

 

[Fadge]

Isnt Nicki rated something like 260 in the comp for his disposal lately?

According to 'Champion Data' apparently.

Despite being Collingwood's best player by a mile this year, and getting the most contested possessions in the competition.

Not sure you want to be bringing Daicos into the discussion when referencing Walsh's kicking efficiency.

 

[Randomizor]

Despite a player doing something that he's apparently entitled to do...

He did the right thing.

Then the umpire made a direction towards him.

He then did the wrong thing.

It’s really not rocket science.
