Re: Will AFL review Cotchin, Lynch and 3rd umpire?

The media commentators and sports journos are concentrating on a love tap on Dougs from Lynch (albeit with his knee), when they should be scrutinising the elbow that Paton copped to his ear hole in the first quarter Lynch was late in the contest and his arms were no where near the footy. Ben was ble...

Re: Post Mortem

bulls***. A game we could have easily won. Not blaming King and Battle but if they kicked straighter at crucial times and all those other guys lift and we come home with our tails high. Gresham, Long, Carlisle and Ryder play and Kent, Geary, Lonie and whoever the f*** Walton is become depth. Walton...

Saw a video on afl.com but it’s not working properly

It was a story about RoMa’s family and great to see them going all out with Saints finals fever. Found this on the net;

Re: Confirmed. Battle Marsh and Savage In. Tigs Lynch & Broad in

Marsh played as a running defender at Collingwood but mostly forward at the Saints. Wouldn't surprise me to see him line up on Lynch so Howard can take Jumping Jack Riewoldt with a plan to run off both of them. Wilke will take Dusty when he goes forward - even when he hovers around half forward. i ...

Re: Just a glimpse - Max King

Re: Confirmed. Battle Marsh and Savage In. Tigs Lynch & Broad in

Good inclusions, all considered. Marsh gives us flexibility...ruck (minimal, but just in case Marshall needs a rest), defender, or defensive forward. Apparently beating Richmond relies on stopping their defenders marking the ball and rebounding. I'd consider Marsh as a defensive forward, where his ...

Re: Ratts backs Marshall

Great summary Thommo There are question marks on Richmond with their arrogance and their sense of entitlement. Their lapses in discipline during matches has cost them on the scoreboard. The Tigers have had quite a few interruptions to their year with non football issues and controversy. This is also...

It should be overturned. Asking the jury to imagine what might have happened is ridiculous. There is also the theory that they are trying to stop people running in off the line but there is no rule dealing with that. It should not matter how Long arrived at the contest. The only thing that should m...
