Round 19: the Chrysler Centura games.
- Thread starter Redford
- Start date
At least the umpire entitlement would almost even out; probably just a narrow edge to the Skunks.
But, OMG, who would all the AFL media be backing!?
It’s funny how the last desperate minutes/seconds amplify things that are otherwise subtly disguised.
OMG the Collingwood throwing that is allowed. The disguise technique went out the window through desperation.
Also highlighted was the way the Collingwood players milk frees by applying fake pressure on the guy on the ground then suddenly throw the arms out not touching the ball holder anymore appealing for the free to synthesise no effort to get rid of the ball. Looked so bad when accidentally exaggerated like that.
Now tell me some clubs don’t have inside running with the umps on how to achieve more frees than other clubs. I’m calling conspiracy!

Yeah, I bet you 'potential to cause injury' isn't discussedShould be looked at, and not just for a fine! But, no, Skunks gentleman captain ... and 'ornament to the game.'
Young is s gun. Freo have best midfield in AFL with him back.
Serong
Young
Brayshaw
Bolton
What a quartet. And Darcy and Jackson rucking.
Will cause problems for oppo in finals.
Yeh, he was not remonstarting or demonstrative, he was almost pointing it out to himself to confirm what he thought had happened. What a pathetic umpire to feel like that was dissent.
The subjectivity of this rule is ridiculous.
That was a bloody awful act by Moore. Deserves a week minimum. Defenders do it all the time but that was blatant
How many magnificent kicks do they have!! And so many left footers also.
Walker, Fogarty, Dawson, Rankine, Laird, Hinge, Worrell, Curtain all kick well.
Top 4 is critical.
They're enjoyable to watch, even with the Chief Power Ranger in the side. I'd hate to think how many Thilthorp would kick in his career if he was playing in the 90s
He's in his 5th year, TT.
I think we also have something to look forward to with our 3 big forwards. Imagine Harry, Jonty & Simmo in their 5th
A few questioned Nicks a while back but his transformation of the Cows has been impressive.
I like watching them play. Impressive brand. Be happy for them to win it as opposed to a lot of others.

Can't wait for 2028.
Bigger bodies
3 preseason's
And 50 games under there belts
He is, I understand that, but his game style just makes me think of the 90s power forwardsHe's in his 5th year, TT.

At times, Freo has both Darcy and Jackson in at centre bounces.
Why can't we put Balta in at times with Nank?
Especially if our key backs become Miller, Young, Gibcus, we need to invent creative ways to use Balta as a shock trooper.
Go on, tell me why this is a stupid idea.

Tex can finally use the empty seat next to him on the plane
It's not stupid at all, C. I've been suggesting it for a while; throw Balta in the middle to be our 'Crippa' - except he's just as big but faster, seriously good leap, more athletic overall - to be a burst mid. Can also break tackles and apply strongly.
It suits him because he's a " see football, get football ' type of player who struggles if he has to think too much or makes unfortunate errors. Also might take his mind off "Woe is me" mentality atm.
