Collingwood dropped mark but maggots paid the mark in Q4. Commentators in a rare moment of honesty: “Lucky the umpires didn’t see he dropped that”.
I’m staggered this thread is getting any activity. No influence on the result.
Andrew Dillon is a McLaughlin clone.
Come on: you don’t think all the decisions listed above could have even given them a combined advantage of even just a single point???
Despite the dramatic thread title, this seems like a place to simply highlight errors or inconsistencies in matches. Is there a better thread to use?
I was happy that we got a few in our F50 for a change.
Usually when they even them out we get em in the D50 and usually feel ripped off.
That Hobbs one was disgraceful. I watched the replay last night and was again shocked that it was HTB.
How do you know? If one free wasn’t paid, we may have won by a point.
The most frustrating one, for me, was the no decision against Mihocek for blocking McKay from contesting with Hoskin-Elliott who marked and goaled.
If McKay turns his back on the ball and ties up Mihocek it’s a free every time, but there’s a different set of rules for defenders and forwards.
That one was very obvious but not so much a different rule for defenders and forwards but some times the maggots turn a blind eye to the Filth. At least it wasn’t a repeat of past ANZAC days where they threw the rule book away for them.
EFA
The footy-tracking trial continues, including in Essendon’s VFLW match this week (photos below from AFLWVFLWPhotos on Instagram)
Apparently West Coke Eagles cannot throw the ball, drop the ball, or duck.
Let’s hope they reintroduce the HTB rule next week.
Couldn’t believe they actually gave us a couple of frees in front of goal
I was annoyed with this one in particular.
1:38 to go in the 2nd, McGovern is on the ground, he kicks his leg out and kicks Guelfi in the foot, and Guelfi has to handball to Jones superman-style. Should have been a free kick to Guelfi for tripping.
Reportable from what I could see.
But even after the replay the local commentary team were suggesting it might have been a free TO McGovern for in the back.
There was something up yesterday. Some brown paper bag dealing… they didn’t try to hide it.
CONFIRMED
The mark not payed to Wright was my low light, when did not paying the mark to the man in front become a thing. Not even talked about on the commentary.
