Game Day Round 13, 2024: Hawthorn v GWS Giants, 1.45pm @ UTAS

[PenAndPaper]

The game is getting seriously unwatchable with decisions like that.
The sooner the AFL brings in the way soccer does the advantage rule the better, it's so amateur how it's judged right now.

 

[fairdinks]

Not getting the rub atm.
Right in it though.

Ginni needed better awareness then

Red. Time. Goalssssss

 

[Rioli magic]

Ginnivan took the advantage.

Should’ve given the handball.

I think the call was correct.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Surprisingly getting smashed in most stats aside from tackles.

Essentially feels 0-0 as a contest and on the scoreboard though.

 

[eldorado]

Bit dumb by Ginnivan, and dumber again by the umpire...

 

[peetoo]

Didn't have much luck overall, but we showed plenty of promise against a quality opposition and prob should be up a goal or two. Chol absolutely outstanding and thought Reeves started well too.

Would have been better if Chol created another goal from his dominance though

 

[RoughysMullet]

ffs bloddy red time goals

GWS umps don’t help but yeah they got on top late

 

[Off The Couch]

Seems like the conditions are controlling the game

No advantage in that play results in a GWS umpire’s goal

Been red hot on deliberate - let’s hope it works both ways

Hopefully the boys settle into the second quarter and start playing their own game and converting those forward entries

 

[Flag08]

Blatant free missed to Ginni. Play on and goal to GWS. Absolute Bullsh1t

He played on ffs

 

[HedgeFund]

Sorry but where was the advantage?

He had a clear run in front and took several steps before Taylor nabbed him.

 

[SSSSSS]

We've got a fight on our hands which is a good test for us. Lets see how we hold up.

 

[Big Hotdog]

Geez there's a lot of complaining in this thread.

That was a super tough quarter of footy and we stood up really well. This is the toughest contested side than we've dealt with since Sydney.

They set up well so when we force a turnover we can't move as quickly as we want to.

Thank god for Chol.

Ginni and Moore fluffing a couple of chances each - but we're so in this game.

Cholesterol has had a number big efforts that quarter...

Ginnivan took the advantage.

Should’ve given the handball.

I think the call was correct.

If it was paid advantage the ump should be sacked because no advantage should have a tackle 1 second later

If it wasn't paid advantage and was called play on, then again it's the wrong call as play was never stopped

 

[PenAndPaper]

Ginnivan took the advantage.

Should’ve given the handball.

I think the call was correct.

The problem is, he's too scared to wait for a freekick because he hasn't been getting them so he just continues to play expecting not to get any.

1 step after probably second guessing whether the umpire would pay high.

 

[MC_9]

The game will open up at some point, it will be who is ready to take advantage of it.

He thinks he’s quicker than he is

 

[Denver Day Lewis]

Nonsense.

Appalling umpiring. He had to check whether the free was paid, and the cheats sticthed him up.

Just an atrocious quarter of umpiring. Unbelievably low standard and wildly inconsistent.

AFL is shit to watch because of the umpires and the AFLs continual ill-considered interference with the rules.

Absolute morons running the game.

Overpaid morons.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Toby should be in the concussion protocol really after a hit like that

 

[peetoo]

Dreadful umpiring.

At least we’ll have the wind in the second.

Trees not moving much

 

[Buttonsticher]

Ginni misses 1 and hands em 1. Owes us 2 plus the vig

Yep it was obvious he was playing like no free. Shit umpiring. Should have called it back

[Judd2Sewell]

A quarter littered with mistakes from players and umpires. Some of those umpiring calls are absolutely laughable.

Coupling this new "interpretation" of HTB and the "interpretation" of insufficient intent is going to make a mockery of the game.

Moore with a lazy shot on goal set the tone early.

Highlights for the quater - Impey going back with the flight. Chol's huge mark and Reeves taking two contested clunks deep in defence. Great stuff from both of them. Day and D'Ambrosio have both been good too.

Green and Callaghan have both been damaging. We need to get on top of them.

What is going on with Newcombe this season?He's not close to performing to the same level he did last season.
