Hopefully that calms all the Crow and Carlton nuffs, along with anybody else lining up to take a shot.
Can people explain 2 decisions that have left me scratching my head since saturday:
1) Inside the first minute of the 2nd quarter- David Armfield was screaming into an open goal and was tripped. He played on and kicked a point. The umpire recalled it and the set shot was a goal. What happened to the advantage rule in that instance? The rule would have applied had he kicked the goal, so it rests on the player once he makes the decision to play on.
2) Colquhoun's mark from the Ebert kick inside the last minute of the game. I AM NOT DISPUTING WHETHER IT WAS TOUCHED, but if it was, isn't the rule play on??? Why did the umpire re-call it? what was the ruling made there?
Shit result which has ended any glimmer of hope we may have held for our 2015 prospects....but surely the AFL umpires must be issued a please explain over a couple of calls made. As least come out and say the calls were wrong, or explain the ruling at least, as I among many were left a touch bemused.

I will however note that Carlton were coming off the bye and Port were going into it. Surely when 6 sides are having the bye each week they play each other the following week?

Didn't seem to be a problem for West Coast.

A 24-10 free kick count didn't help Port's cause.

Friday Night free kick count was 25-13 against WC, in a game where they dominated play for a majority. Didn't stop them from getting the job done.

And? I just said it didn't help.
It's quite ironic that you mentioned that though as I was listening to a Richmond supporter yesterday telling me how he thought the tigers were ripped off by the umpiring .
West Coast play with heart and a viable game plan, Port don't, they've been riding on their previous efforts.
West Coast have enormous depth, Port don't.
The thought of a full strength West Coast outfit is somewhat scary, definitely entering their window.

Richmond got 2 terribly rank decisions, 2 of about 6 shockers for the night.
We have plenty of key position depth, midfield depth is increasing but far from strong. This is only because we have had the worst run of injuries for roughly the last 5 years, we have been forced to pump games into players. Last year we had no Shuey, Wellingham,Selwood,Yeo and Nic Nat with no pre season for long periods last year.
Yes our game plan is good, but players have learnt to run both ways,plus our disposal has improved out of site.
