just watch the tigers v eagles game

and or kangas v cats game



everyone is confused......and now apparently if you are tackled and have had prior opportunity and the ball slips out but not by hand[pass or kick - but you dont drop it...its not holding the ball??


what the?
 
sometimes it is better for a player not to take possesion of the ball because of fear he will get tackled straight away and get pinged.....


not good
 
The AFL is ruining the game, as a matter of fact that Greek is.

If they put a limit on interchanges, then it'll be a sad day.

don't agree, this is a furphy, if you'll get tackled straight away,tap the ball on, as players always have, or back yourself, make the right decision.

Umpires are crap though
 
The umpires dont make the rules the AFL does.
As for interpretations just ask Geisch and see what interpretation of the rules the umpires are using this round. :help :help
 
As said,

Last bastion of Socialism.

Only place left in the world where they now pay 3 people more to do what only 1 used to do for less.
 
Agree that the umpiring so far this year has been horrible. Just finished watching the Roos Vs Cats game and the umpiring was crap in game as well.
