Is throwing the ball now allowed?
Yep tackling is going to fade out of the game at this rate. Clearly they are instructed to keep the play flowing and that means allowing any disposal of the ball when tackled and plenty of time to get the ball out. Some tackles spin 3 times and there is no free paid

The data is in. Its official. You can't kick for territory down the line in your back half, will get paid DOOB, but you can do it in your front half, never paid DOOB.

Sorry to quote my own post, exemplar at the death, kick in hope fwd towards boundary in swans front half, just. Nothing, throw it in. Strange that essadun players didn't appeal. Inexperience

Umps are a *smile* disgrace. They just love being on centre stage. Cost the bombers the game.

Frees - Swans 29 to Bummers 16 and in a 3 point game?
Must be those white jumper darlings just play a fairer brand of the game and those dastardly dark jumper mobs are just naughty naughty boys. The umpiring needs to be held to account like everyone else in the game and in society.

True. But I'm all about logic. The DOOB is, objectively, not enforced consistently. Just an observation. We can say they're *smile*, and they are especially this year, but this is objectively dodgy.

That touched kick to goal where the goal umpire called goal. Just cause there's a hand showing, how do they know it was touched with this tunnel vision technology??
