Collingwood game Harry O got penalised and it was a disgrace. According to the new rule he should have got the free kick and he got penalised.

We are in trouble when the umpires genuinely don't know what the rule is

That was ridiculous. It was the exact reason the rule was brought in, Harry O is lucky he didn't snap his leg.

Harry O gave away the free and also got reported!!

I think they have to change the wording to "forceful" contact below the knees and then let the umps adjudicate who initiated it.  It's really twiggy touchwood stuff at the moment.

just shows the contempt these arrogant turds hold the fans in
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?
