Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2021

[Down at K Park]

Afl site just wants you to see what they want.
Has anyone noticed the complete lack of press the Stkilda peedo ring has got from the Hun etc?
Probably the biggest AFL scandal in a while and the AFL partners won't report on it.

It happened 40-50 years ago, the 2 guys i think are dead now?, and it didn’t really involve the stk fc beyond them using the jumpers, and having a very minor association. It was deplorable, but to me it really isn’t that much of a story.

The only bad thing that st k have done is not removed them as life members yet. That really needs to happen.

If this was a recent thing, and it had stronger ties to a club it would have been a heaps bigger story.

To not even report it though?
If you have a look at the front page of the Hun the other day Brook Cochin and Joffa were on the front page.
This is as equally as important as them.
You can't tell me it's not on purpose to not report it. Its definitely newsworthy.

Can Adelaide cause an upset?

 

[winty]

Dees getting a massive rub of the green with the umpires here. It seems umpire 32 (Mollison?) has a death wish - don't think he's paid anything to the Crows yet, and has paid several soft frees the other way.

Cue the melts from Punt Road...

[Munich]

C'mon tingles

 

[fpm84]

Yes Tex!

 

[winty]

At any other time of the game and at any other position on the ground, that would've been a deliberate out of bounds then.

 

[Baudolino]

Wait holy crap, Adelaide won? I checked a few mins ago and the Dees looked home. What happened?

 

[calder_daddy]

Seeing the crows player boot the ball into the top level to celebrate was one of the greatest things I’ve seen in a long time.
What a good game

Adelaide kicked the last 3 goals of the game, that's what.

 

[hoopla]

Great game. A few dodgy decisions at the end, but it probably evened out.

 

[sauron256]

Gotta love footy, what a cracker of a game that was.

 

[frggr]

What a game that was!

[Footy_Fan2007]

Lol gee that was deliberate

 

[frggr]

Just like us against Sydney, Melbourne should have won anyway but had a chance to snatch back the win denied by an umpire error.

 

[Goggin Our Best]

Weve benefited from a non holding the ball decision re Blicavs - got us 4 pts against the Lions

But that was holding the ball against that Ade bloke he had it for half an hour -

I just think the umpires at the death wont pay those critical decisions against the home team

That game if it was at the MCG - the Crows bloke would have been penalised for holding the ball - and should have been - just like the Blicavs one - if it had been at the Gabba it would have been paid holding the ball for sure

 

[winty]

Nice kick at goal by Shaun McKernan then!

 

[God Mode]

GO CROM

 

[STPer18]

Melbourne back to snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Melbourne lost! Wow

There were half a dozen not called against Melbourne in that last 10 minutes too
