Good to see Cox being allowed to wrestle in the ruck and Nic Nat come over the top in ruck duels. Only Hickey and McEvoy aren't allowed it seems.

This is your problem Curly. You see every incident as the same but they arent. The one you are talking about now is nothing like the one yesterday. I suppose that makes it hard to discuss things with you because it isnt black and white but you think it is.

Of course it is legal that's the point. Hickey was penalized for it yesterday.sunsaint wrote:its is a very effective ruck tactic, and completely legal under the rulesCURLY wrote:Commentators even commented on how effective it was.

Re: Why oh why? Just blatant.
It's not about an excuse. It's about taking off the point the finger/blame glasses and sucking it up that sometimes umpires get it wrong but in the long run it comes out roughly even. And that there's a correlation between losing and being down the bottom of the ladder and the number of frees you win. Being second to the ball, having less possessions, laying less tackles, winning less contested possession - you're going to get fewer free kicks.stinger wrote:bergholt wrote:It was 140 possessions to 50 at quarter time. Pretty hard to get many frees if you haven't had the ball.stinger wrote:look...i know we were shithouse in the first quarter......but 8 frees to zilch in that quarter....come on you have to be flowerering joking...
what's your excuse for the maggots for their pathetic efforts in the 2 and 3rd quarters then???....15 frees to 8 and we were breaking even
Come on Stinger - you must at least see beyond the kind of kneejerk blind one-eyed-ness that is Curly's fave thing. Or have you been taking the same pills as him? Joke

Some people just get so habituated into bagging the umpires that they can't watch the footy any other way. It doesn't have to be that way.

There was nothing different at all. Two rucks jostled the other over the top. No difference.

Completely different. Hickey stood in the other ruckmans way and didnt even attempt to go for the ball. tonight the other ruckman was third man up. Curly you have to get treatment. the rule book would be a good start.

Umpires make mistakes every week. The problem is some of the ones you point out arent mistakes.
