Kicking for Goal post-siren – Centre of Goal Line A Player who has been awarded a mark or free kick once play has ended will now be able to kick across their body using a snap or check-side kick. The player shall dispose of the football directly in line with the man on the mark and the goal.
How can you do this and not deviate off the line?
Deviating is irrelevent to the new rule, its saying its legal starting outside the line, deviating and disposing of the footy in line with the man on the mark and the goal. Its basically saying as long as you dont kick inside the mark its cool. No major revelation as you could do this with place kicks many moons ago too.
^ is the most confusing post I've ever read.
Easily understood. Lets say a player takes a mark right on the point post. He is able to move off the line pre kicking, ie closer to the crowd and behind the line of the goals.he can take what ever steps he likes back towards play as long as he kicks from the line of the mark. if he was to come back into pl;ay past the mark it would be play on as it is now
"He's able to move off the line pre-kicking"? When does the siren sound in this situation? Why wouldn't he be called play on?

Nah, I bet on the individual finals, the combined odds were much better odds than backing an all out flag. Worked out at about 40/1. Especially cleaned up against the Eagles as had $140 on North that day, cleared $175 . Almost paid for my new numberplate that day alone! Did get better odds for the South and Norwood finals but didn't have as much on those games as its only against the Eagles in finals that you can be 100% confident of a choke.

Luckily the chances of me running into one them is quite low, couldn't even find one at Adelaide Oval during the Prelim.

They should just become Western Adelaide and merge with West. South also should pack up and become the Southern Tigers , only problem with that is Glenelg have support when they are winning.
