And the push in the back rule which was the "in" thing today.

What I don't understand is how under the same rules the Pies game has 34 free kicks and ours had 63.  :lol

I thought the Tigers supporters in my area were going to jump the fence and neck the umpire a few times. The only thing that probably stopped them was we were on level 2.

When are those germs going to stop over officiating in games? Grand final day they put away the whistle and only pay the blatant ones - its probably the best umpired gamed for the year. Do that everygame!

Umpiring was terrible - game was over umpired, they were inconsistent, and heavily favored the seagulls.  We definitely paid our account in full for last week's favorable return.

Why 3121? I'm not 3121 and I sat there. I have premium plus and had the option of level 1 or 2 when selecting my Etihad reserve seat.

that seems to be the way they way they want the game played. lets not forget that KB is on the rules committee
“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?
