As a neutral the umpiring due to the rules just gets more frustrating, the holding the ball/incorrect disposal is bizarre , you just never know when a players going to get pinned or it’s just play on, it’s like we are starting to reward the less skilful and the second to the ball

Umps today seem to have no problem bouncing the ball at the G. Why did our umps seem to have such a hard time bouncing the ball on Saturday?

I love how these new rules allow the skills of the game to be displayed in all their glory, like the 12-metre chip pass to the uncontested mark. Oh! What a Dusty moment! The way these blokes keep the ball moving with exquisite throws and dropping the ball whenever tackled, the way the umpires help keep the ball moving by not paying clear marks. It brings a tear to the eye. Just glorious. Take a bow, SHocking. What a maestro. Pure football.

Thank Jeebus we have experts like the two Geralds to tell us how good the game is, otherwise we might not be able to tell.

Geelong are always boring to watch.

Hawks go the flood again.

Dull game.

Isn't it great the way we look after the tagger by letting him do whatever he wants to the ball player, then punishing the taggee as soon as he retaliates. Maybe SHocking was thinking of De Boer when he said Dusty moments.

Umpires just paid a 5m kick as a mark. Seriously, we handball the ball further than that you dweeb.

Agree 100%,
What ever happened to rule if your not looking at the ball?
OConner has given away 10 free kicks in this game, but the maggots haven't paid 1
