Oppo Camp Regular Non Eagles Discussion V2

[Chump Change]

Interesting you say that as Elijah Hewitt likens himself to LDU as a player ..

When I posted that, LDU grabbed the ball from the bounce, broke a tackle, streamed forward and took a shot on goal. I haven't seen many players do that since Judd's first couple of seasons. Only difference is LDU didn't nail the goal. And Judd did it against 3x premiers Brisbane.

I haven't see enough of Hewett to know if he has that in his kit bag.

They aren't now ? As others have said, rules are being made for problems that didn't exist. No wonder the umpiring is rubbish, they have too many factors to interrupt.

*Interpret as well.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Perhaps some sort of bounce robot or drone that could whip in, bounce it then take off?

In all seriousness, how cool would it be if a drone buzzed around and then dropped the ball to the field from a great height? AFLX missed a trick there.

I was just gonna say this.

Way of the future.

The reason the third man up rule was abolished was rucks were getting injured by the third man jumping knee first into the unprotected back of opposition rucks .

Back in the old days they didn't have problems because players didn't interfere with ruck contests the 2 big boys just went at it .

Then hawks started doing it when they were at a ruck disadvantage during their reign with a midfielder usually Lewis going third man up on occasions .

Then Geelong just pissed all over it using 2 rucks vs 1 with blizcavs and Stanley.

That is why the rule was bought in to stop people rorting the system and injuring rucks

The nomination thing is just for umpire and player clarity.

Team finds way to majorly benefit themselves, AFL brings in rule to stop it.
Only sporting organisation that pulls shit like that

Opening of that clip Collingwood had 2 men go up for the centre square tap Vs Melbourne's 1 ruck

Also worth watching for Tarrant's screamer

I can imagine the ball being blown out of bounds before it hits the ground in Tassie.

 

[kane249]

Game delayed, drone battery needs to be charged first before we can restart play

 

[Ochre]

Why are we using a drone when we have Auzzie?

I agree with Schoey here love a bit of passion in a Derby.

'Sexist and misogynistic' umpire abuse sees WA football club fined after failing to identify perpetrator

A WA football club is fined after failing to identify a supporter who launched "sexist and misogynistic" abuse at a female umpire, and is ordered to employ security guards to ensure the safety of umpires.

Don’t mind that, bit of spice is good, but imagine thinking the club in SA with a sense of entitlement is the Adelaide Crows.

Lol that is bizarre to see.

Weird that the umpire got in the way of the drone too

Yeah I think Port it's more marketing spin. They have Kochie and the arrogance of a club that thinks it can take the prison bars off Collingwood.

Not as entitled to think they've won 36 premierships.

The entire North board looks like a nervous wreck over Clarkson.

While I hope he chooses them over the dopers, part of me would find it hilarious to see them spurned again.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Keen for a club to come from absolutely nowhere to poach him.

Of the bottom 4 clubs, ours is the only one not to sack our coach (Rutten is surely unviable no matter what Clarkson decides).

Or he becomes Matlhouse-Carlton v2.

I don't mind North, but that would be pretty funny.

 

[MrWoollie]

I love the bounce and would support having a specialist non-umpire bouncer who just does that and then leaves the field until the next time they're needed.

Imagine the pressure on the poor guy. Especially if he gets an early one wrong.

You've got one little job to do...

I think the lure of coaching a 'big' club, being involved in marquee games, reviving an underperforming lost may be too good to ignore.
