He gets a gig based on his football expertise but has demonstrated this year he has no idea. To claim he does it to wind us up is to cover for the fact he is completely clueless.

Simpson was incredible in the On The Couch interview.
They did say they were going to show a bunch of other non paid free kicks but they skipped that part?

Haha, Simmo just told Gaz Lyon On The Couch that if anyone needed a clip it was him over the last 4 year,
Gaz flog said nothing...
Also wanted to know why he hadn't backed us after the below.
Then they showed this pretty damming graphic...
WEST COAST FORM LINE PAST 4 YEARS
Games won 68% AFL #1
Finals played 9 AFL #1
Finals won 6 AFL #1
GARY LYON HAS ZERO CREDIBILITY, EVEN TO HIS BEST MATES.

Simmo even had a dig at Mark Robinson geez Simmo is a legend who wouldn't want to play under that magnificent bastard !!
Shit bloke all round. I can see why he has been such an integral part of the VFL media mafia for so long.
They showed the one where Darling had his arm ripped off, no free.
Then Greenwood running in front of the protected zone.
Then Howe being tackled in the goal square.

Fantastic On The Couch, what a great coach, knows when to take control but also lets his staff do their job unhindered. That kind of trust, support and teamwork wins premierships 
Good they showed some of the bad no calls against the Eagles too, amazing how one eyed people can be to pick and choose what offends them.

They also mentioned earlier in the show that Stephenson's run was measured at 26m for his second goal.

Dunno which is easier to judge when a guy is running flat out. But he picked it up just inside the 50 and kicked it from 20 out.

No they got to it later. They showed what should have been a 50 metre penalty to Cripps when a pies player was way inside the exclusion zone, Jack Darling almost getting his arm pulled out of its socket in a marking contest and the tackle inside the goal square that should have been htb. It was a very balanced comeback to the hysteria over the "non free kick". I've also got to say I loved how Simmo responded to their question about it and his statement that one journalist used #robbed and that was very disappointing. He is brilliant. Big man love for Simmo.
That's what she said
Not unbiased or incompetent, but Simmo absolutely smashed it on On the Couch. In a year of significant on-field and off-field turbulence, Simmo has been absolutely outstanding. Calm, confident, and well spoken, but gee he can give a whack when he wants to

Hall of Famer
Posting for future upload of Simmo's interview.

Credit where credit's due - both AFL360 and On the Couch gave us our due and were very complimentary. Think whatever piddly flames of discontent were building about the non-free were addressed well and were basically hosed down, thanks to Simmo who performed magnificently and also our trusty ally, Gerard Healey.
I will now go back to not watching both of those shows again until we make the GF again next year
