His height and the way he plays the game is why he gets free kicks. It has nothing to do with acting and alot to do with poor tackling and King's ability to find the ball in contested situations.

'Mumbles' Robinson tries to act like he's a credible journo.

He does but here's the thing , even if he doesn't draw the free kick it's a tactic he uses to slip the tackle. 9 times out of 10 if he wasn't awarded the free he'd be off and running anyhow. The umps call it high but if they waited another second they could just call advantage.

he does, true, but he doesnt buckle much and he doesn't have to

He didn't even duck his head though. He's just short and had his head ripped off

This. Has a punchable head too. Blokes just want to smack him.  ;D

I take offence to being called actors by a guy whose team has Leroy Jetta and used to have Lloyd.  :banghead :banghead
Interestingly from the little i have seen of him this year
You forget the best diver of recent times Angus Monfries. I've heard the umpires tell him to stop acting when he was squealing for a free

Is he still a prime stager at Port or they have they washed that Essendon dirt out of him?
“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?

Mark Robinson  twitter:

"when jake king plays for free and gets it, it's good play.. when the selwoods do it, it's a blight. Commentators can't have it both ways"

"too much acting at tigerland..."

LOL It's actually the other way round.Other players have ducked and dropped ze knees for years and now when a few Tigers do it,the media grab hold of it.Jack dropped his knees becauise he thought if anyone else was getting away with it,without being penalized,he will do it too.He was making a statement.Then the media come out and put him in the spotlight before the real culprits who have been making a career of it.
The media make me laugh sometimes.

I think this is the game(North) all Bomber supporters are getting rabies over and they are making a statement to the umpires before the game to "not let those Richmond bastards get any frees this Saturday".

Don't worry ,we've had two games for the year,both against St. Kilda where we've had the slight rub of the green.
Transmission will resume this week.I don't think they need your help. ;D Bomber fans.

Haven't seen anybody in the media comment on N Riewoldt but if you saw his dive last Sunday it was akin to being kicked in the back by a friggin horse. Dude went sideways like superman then ended up spread-eagled on the ground. Chaplin may have brushed his shoulder blade with a knuckle or two...was the pussy's only goal all night. Got smashed.

When you're launching yourself at the ball and someone pushes you it looks a lot worse than it is. That being said, Chaplin shouldn't of had his hand on his back

hands in the back is the silliest rule of them all. I see 20-30 a game that by strict interpretation should be called that aren't.
