Chad is by far the best Cornes in that Port side


I agree, but Kane did well defensively against Scully, but again had 26 of the least damaging possessions AGAIN

I suppose as an Essendon supporter and probably facing 5 losses in a row coming up, i suppose you'd need to take an interest in other games to amuse yerself.
At the same time, i do agree that the Power have played like a Spoon team all year and would be a major surprise to avoid it from here although they do play the Crows again.

Quite possible we will lose those 5 but at the start of the year the Port fans were the most vocal about how crap Essendon would be this year so its nice to rub it in to them while we can.

Clearly he was referring to Port getting another win to get them of the bottom of the ladder. :roll:

These umpires have a difficult job as it us
But to be given a set of rules that are killing footy as a contest and a spectacle is bloody AwFuL

agree 100% with your sentiments JJ i dont watch much afl purely cos the umpires ruin it with their interpretations, a guy can be tackled with the ball and spun 360 degrees yet its called play on whereas another bloke gets set upon by 3 opposition players with absolutely no chance of disposing of the ball and he gets pinged - i am getting pissed off just thinking about how they have ruined the game as i type :twisted: :evil:

Nick lower today tackled a FR player near the boundary
He caught him in possession, rolled him over and then slung him over the boundary line
The player slid for several meters after the tackle
The tackle was Taylor Walkeresque
Lower was seen to apologise to his opponent
No report
No free kick
No wonder spectators get frustrated

3/4 TIME
SS 8-5
FR 14-7

Once again this game was ruined by some bewildering decisions
there seems to be a constant noise on TV
it is booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooing

SS has been murdered by the umps today

The diving on the ball and then not hitting it out holding the ball rule is all about keeping the game MOVING. As is the play on immediatley when a behind is kicked. As is the free kick play on
advantage rule. All these rules are about 'Keeping the game moving'.

I think most people can live with that rationale

So the question i ask is if it's all about keeping the play moving, why is play HELD UP after each goal until the commercials have finished on telly ???

Answer - Bcos it suits the AFL and TV stations ie. All to with $$$$$$

Question - Why is the ball still being bounced by umpires to restart play?

All it does is create UNFAIR contests (Refer to Shaun Rehns aricle in todays mail) and when it is too far off centre, it is RECALLED (time wasting , something the AFL are doing everything to avoid) and then the ball in THROWN UP by the ump to avoid the embarrassment of F#####g up twice in a row. What a joke !!!!!

When Andrew, Adrian & Jeff are asked about throwing the ball up, they all roll out the same line about the bounce is UNIQUE to Aussie rules and would be a shame to lose it and also it is one of a few UNIQUE SKILLS required by the umpire to showcase their talents. :shock:
What a total load of crap. They seem to tend to forget the game is about the Players and the Fans and NOT the umpires.

But i suppose as long as there are commentators like Brian Taylor who continue to pump up the status of umpires like Razor Ray Chamberlain, then they will continue to be made to feel as much a part of the spectacle as the players.
