Do you think the game is in a good state???

If we can get

1 Flooding

2. Tempo Football

and

3. abusive interchange

out of the game then we might get back to the sort of footy we want to watch.

l have never even put thought to the number of interchanges
this could slow the game down somewhat if there was a limited ammount of changes per game

Limiting the number of interchange isn't probably in our best interests though with Plough as coach. We're developing a side that can run and carry through the lines.

Might not be in our best interests MT, but it is for the game in general.

I'm just a person RR who would like to see the game left alone and allowed to evolve instead of changes the rules every 15 minutes to try and "fix it". I don't believe any of the rule changes have made a difference to say flooding. It's more coaches and teams have come up with better offensive strategies which involve more direct, hard-running and KISS footy to counter the scourge of flooding. I can't see why anyone would be unhappy with the type of footy we've played over the past 3 weeks.

Bar all the arguments for and against and there is plenty of those, I think so.

I'm old school, it just aint old school anymore. Being that I hate the pussy stuff like this new hands in the back 'more like feather touch to the side' rule for some.

Said it before and will restate, I would be happy for the umpires to let the 50/50 even 70/30 one's go and just pay the bleedin obvious. I could live with that as I am sure other supporters could once the got used to it.
The rules commitee (making new rules) along with the umps (trying to interpret these rules 'nit pick' them to make themselves look good) are killing it.

Just pay the bleedin obvious.

Dont like this tempo stuff, but that is just the way it is. Like to think it could be negated by a team/coach with the balls to just take everyting on all times at all costs. Sadly seems to be none atm, really couldn't be that much a % difference in win/loss trying this different approach.

I still get the same pleasure from the game, when the Tigers are playing. Still believe it is the best game going around also.

Not sure how much that would change if not for the Tigers tho ....

Actually it would change, because I would flick the AFL and follow suburban football for my fix.
