Notes (pertains to the 10 analysed games this season and from previous seasons)
- Fewest starts for Ziebell since Rd 5
- Turner's first start since Rd 19, 2018 and first inside start since Rd 5, 2018 - the start came about as a result of 6-6-6 warning as you only had 2 inside mids attending the bounce

Are you the new Ted Hopkins?

I’m interested in getting the opinion from the AFL on paying a block then good bloke Hodge changing the umps mind

So would I. He is a great bloke Hodgey, a friendly guy, good family man, great talker, he is also one of the dirtiest footballers of the last 15 years.

Too true. He used to enjoy belting some of our bloke in years gone by.

The idea that the AFL is incapable of corruption is more ludicrous a position than thinking that the AFL is currently corrupt.

Over on the Brisbane Board there are some good value posts in the NM & Brisbane game review thread

 

[tazaa]

As this thread dies off I’m happy we are all in agreeance that not only is Syria ten times the place Queensland is, I’d take the whole of the Middle East and Eastern Europe too.

At least we’ve found a replacement flog in Zorko since the retirement of Goddard. Piece of shit

FYI In the below article the AFL acknowledges browns free/goal was wrong doesn't appear to have made it to your board yet. Afl has now said that you were gifted a goal, just like we were gifted a goal.

So corrected score is Lions 81 def Roos 79.

In fairness, that smacks as a classic example of “evening up” on behalf of the AFL. If it hadn’t existed, they would have looked for something in the 1st quarter, if they had to. It is, also, ironic because the BBB decision, initially, was evening up the missed foul on BBB just before. Regardless, for us, it’s all a case of pushing s**t uphill. We copped seriously bad luck on the weekend on the adjudication front, when we could least afford it. We’ll get over it - eventually...

So can we assume that most of the frees given were incorrect?

Kindly go back through the game and tell me how many goals were as a direct or indirect result of free kicks.

Or just jog on, your choice.

Your maths appear as pathetic as your logic....

 

[toepoker]

I don't profess to being the sharpest tool in the shed, but I'm a lot smarter than the AFL believes me to be.

 

[Event Horizon]

In the North Melbourne rooms, or the umpire's rooms?

Mate, I was as frustrated as anyone with the umpiring, but you can't tell me the scoreless 3rd quarter (and the week before as well) was entirely due to that.

 

[Event Horizon]

That elbow hit on Swallow is still very fresh in my mind

Hello I've also seen this but am still unable to find the actual statement from the AFL on this matter?

It reads to me like a bunch of journos echo chambering each other. Not disputing the ruck free, Goldy gets them against him often enough that I hate the blocking rule but yeah, lots of talk without official statements like they did with Thompson's free.

 

[Twinkletoes]

Still waiting for this call to be explained.

That clip just needs the Benny Hill music treatment. FMD!

 

[D23D]

All the talk and energy going into the Thompson free takes away from the deplorable 3rd quarter of umpiring.
I'd be happy to keep the Thommo free if half the 3rd q free's weren't paid

 

[astrovic]

Still waiting for this call to be explained.

That was a disaster, you can see all the North players move ahead of the ball (towards North's goals) based on the umpire signalling a block. That left them all hopelessly out of position when the Brisbane player was handed the ball.

It's a basic rule of umpiring that when you stuff up - e.g paying the mark but signalling a free kick the other way (I'm being generous to the ump here) - you halt the game and give the players time to set up fairly. So that's a double stuff up.

Of course he should have paid the block though.

Umpire made a mistake and realised it was an absolute flop so reversed it, a mistake but better than sticking with the original decision.

How about all the BS frees you received in the 3rd quarter?

 

[Gasometer]

Our Forward entries in that 3rd Quarter were typical of every poor game of this season

We have such a dynamic forward line but how we butcher it into them is a calamity

Needs addressing for 2020

 

[Benno_900]

Umpire made a mistake and realised it was an absolute flop so reversed it, a mistake but better than sticking with the original decision.

Yeah nevermind the fact that our players ran the other way and you had free players everywhere forward of the ball.

Much better than the original decision apparently.

Today I learned Hodgey is so powerful that he only needs to slowly walk into an opponent to send him flying onto his arse.
