Danyle pearce from Freo was a a bit of stager too.. and i think it is Guthrie? from north? could be wrong. but on friday night, he acted like he was un conscious and in the replay was not even hit! please someone get a gif or footage of that, guy should be suspended fro a 2 weeks.
That was Scott Thompson, he pulls that ■■■■ all the time, it's why I hate him as a player.
The ultimate scenario - Goodes and Thomas simultaenoulsy staging in the same contest next week - Clash of their heads - Both Concussed - neither play the rest of the game. Both suspended for 1 week.

double rescist, though i dont think Thomas has pulled that card yet
Got a laugh out of these guys staging
Haha, the coach goes down so the player thinks, oh ■■■■■ I better do the same or I'll get done for it.
Staging is cheating. Simple as that.
Thanks.
Fkn cheat Goodes is !
Look at the score with almost 6 mins left.
We were fighting and scrapping.
Still in it with a chance, then the umps fall for this sh*t.
Anyone on this forum who is barracking for Sydney, either next week, or the week after if(when) they win, should be instabanned from Blitz forever, and then flogged to within an inch of their life !!!
Yeah no. Terrible call. Almost as bad as the idiots on here supporting collingwood in 02-03 because they had a thing against brisbane getting extra cap space.
As much as a diving cheat goodes is, I'm still hoping they tear apart norf and hawforn. I hope it comes down to the last kick and buddy kicks the winner against the hawks in the gf. I'm hoping port win next week so that may not happen.
Yep, Buddy being the difference between the Hawks going Back to Back does have a delicious irony to it.
Particularly if we’re talking about a 2 goal game !
Just watching Goodes flop around like that makes me very angry.
I remember being conflicted during the week leading up to the 2002 Grand Final.
But as soon as it started, there was no doubt.
Fark Collingwood, and fark Hawthorn.
Hate the bloke, falls over himself and gets a free.
We have players tug / pull / grab and fondle our blokes and it's play on. Hate his pre and post goal rituals. Hate his whole demeanor. But tell me , where are all these NM fans coming from ?
Out of the meatworks.
From the ■■■■ passage of the dark lord himself
You watch Norf whinge to the press this week about how hard done by he is by the umps.
Then within the first five minutes of the prelim you will see the biggest flop of all time from him and a free given.

NORTH Melbourne forward Lindsay Thomas' history of playing for free kicks is hurting his reputation with the umpires, coach Brad Scott says. Scott then punched a reporter in the chest. When the reporter raised his arms to ward against any further blow, Scott stepped into contact and fell down holding his face.
Or has he stopped doing this since that one time in every single game he ever played?

NORTH Melbourne forward Lindsay Thomas' history of playing for free kicks is hurting his reputation with the umpires, coach Brad Scott says.Thomas was widely criticised for accentuating a push in the back from Geelong's James Kelly, which led to a contentious free kick when the teams met in round 19 earlier this season.Despite contact from Kelly on numerous occasions in Friday night's semi-final, where a free kick was seemingly warranted, Thomas was not rewarded.Thomas did not receive a free kick against the Cats and the umpires penalised him on two occasions.Scott believes Thomas has only himself to blame for the lack of umpire support."My concern right from that incident is that umpires are going to think he's accentuating every (bit of) contact," Scott said on Fox Footy on Monday night."I would think most people would think that's a free kick, (Kelly's) arms (are) around him."But umpires are thinking he's faking it."Scott said Thomas was desperately unlucky not to receive a free kick deep in the goalsquare when Kelly appeared to wrap his arms around the North forward and prevent him from accessing the ball."If he hadn't done that in the past, I think the Kelly one would have been a free kick," Scott said."You make your bed, you lie in it."Meanwhile, Scott said it would be ill-advised for him to speak with suspended Roo Brent Harvey about the predicament he has found himself in.Harvey received a one-match ban from the Match Review Panel for making high contact with Geelong captain Joel Selwood on Friday night.That followed an incident where Harvey was rubbed out for three matches and saw him miss North's elimination final win over Essendon.The Kangaroos have already announced the club will contest Harvey's latest charge at the Tribunal on Tuesday night."I don't think that helps in the situation right now," Scott said."I spoke to him after the last incident only a month ago and we're in this situation again."There'll be a time and a place for that."
Kind of agree in principle with what Scott is saying, but in the end he's still just having a sook as always.
My top 10 stagers in the game …
Leading with the head/shoulder infuriates me so much. I used to love Cotch until he brought this in to his game.
Honorable mentions to Puopolo, Blair and Boomer they were excluded for being half grown.

I havent got the time to put together my top ten stagers.
Thing is, you know when we play north, Thomas will stage at some point. Its a shame , because he doesnt need to. He is a a talented player. He is ■■■■■■■■ on his own cv.
Yep, I absolutely can’t stand the little prick but would take him in a heartbeat.
He is a small forward who kicks goals. Exactly what this team needs.
didn’t Jeff Farmer wreck his back playing for a free? threw his head back, arched the spine and dropped to his knees at the moment of maximum spine torque and ■■■■■■ himself all up?
Favourite moment of the game was when BJ gave him a spray as he lay on the ground like he’d been shot with an elephant rifle. Not sure if it was shown on TV. But Goddard won even more respect from me for that,

I miss Monfries. Was able to turn every tackle into an in the back free kick. Surely they all train on doing buckling the knees.
Does Hodge going off every two fking minutes for a head bandage count? Such a warrior.
I don't like him at all but in this case it is more about the game than the playa. The umpires need to get on top of it.
and yet there’s hundreds of players in the same game not doing it.
