The good old days.
FTFY
That was quick, not a surprise tho, clearly obvious.
You have every right to express your wrong opinion.Doubt it.
Terrible decision and one that should be condoned
Yeah i'm not sure that one was thereAfter rewatching the last five minutes I am fine with the free to Sicily.
Newcombe though deserves an Oscar.
It's always the way with these match threads from the early arvo games. Many neutrals tune in for the last quarter when they see the Hawks or whoever are making it a close contest. They'll gob off about a few umpiring decisions which go Hawthorn's way late in the game. But they have no fricken idea about some of the bullshit umpiring & lucky breaks which helped the Giants get out to a handy lead at half time. Including a few "12 point plays" which stung...I suspect you didn't see that earlier incident with Ginnivan and only watched the AFL's "last two minutes" video. If that wasn't the case you'd have seen all the questionable frees earlier in the game that cost us a comfortable 5 goal win.
How many 7 year contracts worth over a million dollars a year are on the giants list?And how many father-sons are on the Giants list?
So was Maynard in the 2018 grand finalThat’s 100% play on
Bet your not bitching about umps now
Pipe down with your 17k on a standalone Sat night game
Nah I couldn’t care lessIf you looked at any of my posts you would have seen me comment on the quality of umpiring in the Saints - Suns game. Absolute dog shite umpiring in both games, Suns have a right to feel robbed with the last shit call going against them 15m out in front of goal.
Go pipe some Dingley out in your village B I G H A W K 2 3
Bumped as he kicked, affecting the kick. If he bumped after, the kick wouldn't have been affected.
Free kick Hawthorn is back.
Yeah, in that situation the defender MUST aim to disrupt the ball, either partial (a finger on the ball) or full smother, or by tackling the player. It was a defending error, low IQ decision making.ITT: clueless numpties whining over a free kick down-the-field for a late bump - the sort of infringement we've all seen penalised 500 times before and will continue to be penalised over and over and over...
Since when has a player been permitted to bump a guy over after he has pumped the ball inside fifty?
"But but but Green bumped Sicily as he kicked it"
No, he didn't. He clearly bumped him after Sicily got boot to ball.
Don't blame the umpire for doing his job. Blame Green for his brain fade.

AFL concedes umpiring error, ticks off other controversial calls
The AFL has given its verdict on three controversial umpiring calls on Saturday. The AFL conceded a late free kick against Gold Coast defender Mac Andrew on Saturday night should not have been paid, but the League has ticked off two other controversial calls from the weekend's action.
1. St Kilda v Gold Coast.
Stephen McBurney, the AFL's Head of Officiating, conceded on Sunday that both players were grappling and the correct decision was to call play on.
"The umpire assessed that Andrew put both arms around Max King and paid holding the man. We think looking at the full context and with the benefit of all the angles we had, we think the better call in that situation was no call. We don't think there was enough to constitute holding and we think there was significant contact both ways as they were grappling and running for position. So we think the better call in that situation is no call, don't blow the whistle and let play unfold with a kick from the centre.
2. West Coast v North Melbourne
McBurney ticked off a holding the ball free kick that was awarded against West Coast's Elliot Yeo late in the Eagles' loss to the Kangaroos, which saw North co-captain Jy Simpkin kick a pivotal goal.
Yeo first jarred the ball free with his strong tackle on George Wardlaw but then found himself over the ball and did not knock it free before Simpkin tackled him.
"The rules require that if you dive on the ball or drag it back in that you must knock it clear immediately. He doesn't do that, the tackle is effective so we say holding the ball is the correct outcome."
3. Hawthorn v GWS Giants
McBurney said the free kick against Greater Western Sydney midfielder Tom Green on Hawthorn's James Sicily late in their match in Launceston, which led to the match-winning goal for the Hawks, was also the correct call.
"Green's hit was late and forceful. We've been fairly consistent on that all year".
Sicily's shot on goal went out on the full and the "free after disposal" was paid to Hawthorn in their forward pocket. McBurney conceded there was an argument that Hawks forward Mabior Chol was closer to where the ball went out of play, and therefore should have taken the resultant free kick, but that the umpire had ruled that Luke Breust was the closest Hawthorn player.

I love how they haven’t referenced the flop from D.ButlerI like how the umpires also only commented on the one late free kick in the Hawks game though, as if there was only one controversial free kick...
Ginnivans irrelevant as it was turned over, and then Newcombe was caught high.I like how the umpires also only commented on the one late free kick in the Hawks game though, as if there was only one controversial free kick...
It's a free all day.
and it's down field, AFL rule states it's at the point the ball lands or crosses the boundary.
