Too focused to look up scores on your phone?
It's a great example of something that providers should offer as an optional feature. It is a really useful feature but clearly there are some users who don't want it. Probably don't have the capability to offer those kind of options yet, but that's the direction providers should take.
Another example would be an option to turn off commentary, but still hear the crowd (when there is a crowd present).
Until then, perhaps slap some gaffer tape over the lower right corner of your telly

Yep, me too. A bit of torn off post-it note does the trick.
Probably these chip chip short kicking of the ball and this tap the ball forward stuff its not a kick nor handball and incorrect disposal too and deliberate dropping of the ball players just never get pinged for it.
And the way richmond play and in turn changed the way the game has to be played too.Chip and tap game.

Players having no clue about the deliberate rushed behind rule. It's really not a hard one, if you're under pressure kick the thing 60m through the goals for all i care. Yet players are still dumb as a door knobs when it comes to that rule.

chip chip spread...10m kick backwards, sideways to relieve pressure..smart play but boring as f..k to watch
the best thing about footy is the ball in dispute whether in the air or on the ground
todays game is less about this and more about a game of 'keepy off' played on a large ground...completely takes the crowd out of the game

Perfect example was yesterday’s Coll v West Coast game. Coll executed to perfection and WC didn’t have a plan B to combat.
Incredibly boring game to watch as a neutral. Perhaps this is where football is destined to be heading.

Someone on the bench holding up a sign that says 2 or 3 or whatever showing how long is left to play as if only their players can see it.
Totally pointless, surely they could have some type of code or something indicating their point otherwise its just plain ridiculous.

I don't think anyone believes that only their players can see it mate.

Players who bomb it out of their backline knowing full well no teammate is anywhere near where they are kicking it and the ball is going to come back in. May as well kick it 20 rows out of bounds on the full and give teammates time to man up/set up.

Ex footy players dressed in a suit and pretending to be journalists.
When will Straya learn ... you don't need to have played the game to have an opinion on it.

It's so amateurish, almost laughable both benches 20 metres apart holding up the same sign
whats amateurish about it? are that clubs players not getting the point there are 2 minutes left if a big '2' is held up?
Handballing... Throws are basically legal now as long as you pretend to get a fist to it. Sometimes not even.
The rule should be you have to propel the ball with your fist not throw it with your fist making slight contact to the ball.

The fact that this thread is 87 pages long. We AFL fans are nothing if not a bunch of extreme whiners and whingers.

Not having the 'turn commentary or turn fake crowd noise off button on Kayo'.
