Don't worry, * have us next week. We'll save Rutten's career.

Nothing surer.

Daicos literally runs around by himself. Even when the ball is turned over he just runs around without an opponent. Surely someone is going to exploit him

In the old vernacular, he plays extraordinarily ’wide’.

 

[benbanjo]

His arm went up after the tackle around the neck.

Alright i got the slow mo, this is how i see it now, he buckled the knees before the tackle got taken high and then as you said his arm went up afterwards, in real time it seems either before or as it was happeneing.

I think Dawson in next week, Bombers tall

Its so hard to watch the sport, umpires are pathetic lol

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Dropped at the knees, clearly raised his arm, umps calling it real time without the benefit of slow mo to see if the arm raise was 0.1sec after the high contact.

Only got himself to blame for that one. If he hadn't thrown in the arm raise he might have been paid.

But if he goes through the entire checklist for drawing high contact, he has to accept he isn't going to have it paid.

Right call.

 

[benbanjo]

NBA players used to kick out their legs when shooting 3's to get the contact, used to be paid a defensive foul, now it gets paid an offensive foul. if you duck or raise the arm, then it should be holding the ball if you had prior. pretty simple i think, players will stop doing it.
Personally i thought this issue was dealt with years ago, now we are back in it.

crapping on at half time (and Eddie Betts agreeing) that now Ginnivan can't lift his arm he might get a concussion and can't protect himself...

What the actual ****?

So if he takes a tackle like 99% of the rest of the league he can't protect himself? How does that even work?

Watched it a few times - disagree. But umps agree with you.

Anyone got the pic of when Stevo tackled him and he is on the ground with his arm straight up in the air like the nit that he is?
lol cant protect himself, he was a protected species since his first game.

 

[Themanbun]

No problems with this. He's not trying to evade a tackle. He's not trying to break it or power through. He is literally just dropping his body to draw contact. It's shit and needs to stop.

 

[Samsquanch]

I think the umps got that one wrong. The initial contact was always above shoulder height.

the worst player in the AFL? legit question, he has to be in contention right?

Well... It looks like they do not want Clarko.

He was already in the process of dropping.

As I said, he’ll be out of the league in two years if he doesn’t learn how to score without the freebies.

 

[Moti]

Nick Daicos invisible that quarter once it became a contested game.

He is in the process of dropping himself but I agree it probably would have been high regardless. That said he instantly yanked his arm up as high as he possibly could, it's absolutely absurd to see, and because of that the benefit of the doubt is completely gone. He needs to unlearn that technique quickly.

 

[Hojuman]

Fogive me Lord, for l know not what l do.......

" C'MON PIES.......... "

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Daicos flat out gave up chasing.

 

[bennymate]

Games like this are why i prefer a JHF type over Daicos, when it comes to contested ball - when it matters - he is like a pig in shit.

At least Rutten will still be there for a while.

Plus in the remote chance we pull our fingers out next week they should be cherry ripe for an upset.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

McGrath is the most ineffectual, nondescript #1 draft pick of the 21st century.
