MFC Fans Only Non-Demons AFL Discussion – 2024: This year really stinks (but not as much as the Gold Coast rebrand)

[mrmonkey]

Might as well wear tags then.

Just a bit of tongue in cheek, what he actually said was that he only wanted a certain tackle that's outlawed in NRL. I wasn't fully concentrating but I think he called it a drop tackle. I'm not sure about that, NRL is a very different game and most tackles are front on. The naughton tackle is unfortunate but you can't do much about it.

 

[mrmonkey]

Let me guess guy dropped to his knees to tackle him and rolled over it to avoid slinging him?

No he tackles him from behind and some legs got tangled.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Sydney doing a lot of whinging and appealing to the umpires tonight. Nothing shits me more seeing players do that, hope they get rolled

 

[mrmonkey]

I had a look at what David King was talking about and I don't think the naughton's tackle was like this, was more like the non hip drop tackles.

David King wants no tagging no marking contests no tackling or bumping. Just AFL X
Flog campaigner

Swans putting a lead on .

He reminds me of those cancel culture types that look for things that are offensive so they can cancel it. Dunstall called him out on his bs.

There's just no end to how soft he wants it to be. He wants it to be a little safe zone where women and children could share the field with the men and be safe.

 

[Topkent]

Id bet money within a couple years he'll be on first crack dead serious saying removing knees from marking contests and showing vision of basketballers collecting the ball without using a knee

Didn't Kane last year say something about removing knees from marking contests?

is an absolute sicko

Yep I don't remember if he was serious or doing it the way I use it which is if you're banning accidental bumps and tackles how can you just let blokes run and knee guys in the head. That's way more dangerous than a tackle

 

[mrmonkey]

Sydney remind me of Richmond in 2018 they can just pull away from teams in the second half.

 

[jhong]

Swans mucking around now .

Too long to go, lead not big enough.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Chad Warner is an absolute sicko

Possibly the best player in the comp right now. Imagine having Warner, Gulden and Heeney in your midfield with Mills to come back in! F* Sydney

Swans have Let the dogs back into this

Okay got that wrong, dogs are back

 

[Topkent]

What a shit era for mids the last 5 years were. This new breed makes the old limited campaigners like Danger Fyfe and Oliver look shit.

 

[melbun]

For all those who focus on last minute free kicks,
the free kick awarded against Warner in the 2nd quarter for a "high" tackle was the worst of the worst umpiring.
The 4 umpires is not good. 25% worse.

 

[schmuttt]

What a s**t era for mids the last 5 years were. This new breed makes the old limited campaigners like Danger Fyfe and Oliver look s**t.

You’ve already forgotten how good peak Dangerfield was eh

 

[Bluelegs]

Dogs form a bit like us in 2017. Can match it with the best teams, crazy high percentage, but drop games they should win and absolutely no backline to speak of.

 

[Toump Ass]

That was a pretty good gsme from the westerns. Richards or Naughton stay on the field and they probably win that.

Depressing that Bevo can turn around the Doggies. Hope Simon can do it too.

I thought Jordan and Harmes did well. Harmes has been getting better and better. I thought they might be playing Harmes as a defensive forward on Blakely but found it hard to tell if that was his role or not.

Looking forward to ex Melbourne champion Wagner playing tonight. I think Freo are a good chance of knocking over the Pies.

 

[Johnny Karate]

Bluelegs Freo had 3 goals halfway through that quarter but then they remembered contest/defence.
