My tipping this year has sucked :P.

Same here.

Dismal 2 last week. Sometimes I try to pick the surprises and usually end up losing my tip and it's the other games that have surprises.

I thought for sure the lions would stuff up but I guess not.

Was really enjoying tonight's game until the umpire's anointed Carlton the winners in the 3rd quarter.

Yep, there a number of dodgy frees that went Carlton's way.


Softest free to Curnow 10m out.

12 steps being paid "running too far" against Norf which saved Carlton from a goal.

Lol at the 50m pen to Sydney in the last. The umpires have no feel for the game whatsoever -- unless that 'feel' is overwhelming home-ground advantage..

Port win after Florent doesn't make the distance from 40 metres out

The Blakey one? 50 metres everyday of the week

Absolutely.

I was surprised they delayed the call so much

Gee I dunno, could you imagine a Grand Final being decided by that? He should be allowed to put it on the ground and not have to kick it back. As long as he doesn't throw it further away the team should get their own damn ball. One day a big, exhausted ruckman will fluff his kick returning the ball for a free kick in a big final and the 50m will turn it into the winning goal with a minute on the clock. Won't be a good look.

Dixon kicked it over his head quite deliberately.

Handball it or kick it properly that's the rule. Straight back.

15.10 to 1.3 after half-time. Hawks just gifted the Cats a massive % boost.


LOL at Jeremy Cameron too busy celebrating to the crowd, running into the boundary umpire and coming off second best  :laugh:.

Turned it off again pretty quick

First half was good football, really enjoyed it and was hoping for an upset.

So what penalty does Cameron cop for making contacting with an umpire? I know the media are joking about it but it is a reportable offence

He had a duty of care

Straight to the tribunal?  Or just a little fine?

Geelong so the MRO will ignore it  :whistle.

Yep, the boundary ump will probably be in trouble for being in a Geelong player's way.
