Yes as conclusively as the technology of the day will allow us to show, but even apart from that it was just a wild one handed swipe at the ball in the general direction of the goal square, and it went like a guided missileWell I can't say I was there (or alive lol) but I will say the footage of that speaks for itself.

Love how when they did Footy Flashbacks they had Tom Hafey with Harmes talking in the 5th row of the grandstand...Yes as conclusively as the technology of the day will allow us to show, but even apart from that it was just a wild one handed swipe at the ball in the general direction of the goal square, and it went like a guided missile
Lol yeah Tommy was pretty good on air and of course a legend at Richmond and Collingwood - He did take us from the spoon to within a point of the flag in one year - *sigh* so many near thingsLove how when they did Footy Flashbacks they had Tom Hafey with Harmes talking in the 5th row of the grandstand...
I'm getting sick of near things too...Won 2 of our last 15 GFs...Lol yeah Tommy was pretty good on air and of course a legend at Richmond and Collingwood - He did take us from the spoon to within a point of the flag in one year - *sigh* so many near things
Well we aren't to blame for the Brissy losses - it was in actuality us against the AFL after all.
"But but but we get fixture concessions every year..."
Lol sub we are also able to spend more money on the footy department - which surprise, surprise the AFL are reported to be looking at capping"But but but we get fixture concessions every year..."
The only thing in footy that remains the same is the AFL's intransigent insistence in attempting to grind us down.
Remember how fearsome our tackling pressure was over the last 2 years?Lol sub we are also able to spend more money on the footy department - which surprise, surprise the AFL are reported to be looking at capping

Now, notice that the holding the ball interpretation has been changed this year?
That's not to mention the new sub rule, aimed directly at Swanny.Remember how fearsome our tackling pressure was over the last 2 years?

No surprises here sub after nearly 5 decades of supporting the Pies I expect it.
I wonder why the club hasn't met with the umpires regarding Cloke's treatment every week. It seems he plays under a different set of rules than all other players. He is constantly held, has his arms and head chopped and often has to deal with defenders flying at him with no eyes on the ball.
Maybe it's because he is such a big, strong contested mark, and the umpires figure he usually marks it anyway, but there are so many times that his leads are thwarted by actions that would no doubt be paid as free kicks at the other end of the ground.
