Worried about their unhealthy food? Or are you talking about Tom? He must be getting used to it by now.
Reports that Bailey Fritsch has been dropped for turning up late to training....in a hub? How does that happen?

Re: Game Day Festival of Footy (Round 13-18)
How on earth did they persist with that jerk Finlayson for 3 months over this guy Riccardi? He’s incredible!

What was the knock on Riccardi?
More of an In Bruges guy?

The holding the ball rule is completely cooked. You get to the ball first and immediately have it pinned to you and sometimes they penalise you and sometimes they don't, and it's all as far as I can tell determined by whether you're pretending to get rid of it to the satisfaction of the umpires/ judges.
Just immediately ball it up, don't wait for rucks to be nominated and get on with it.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Yep.
I don't understand why the ruckmen have to nominate.
I don't like the removal of 3rd man up, but given they only want 2ceuckmen in the contest, just throw it up and if more than 2 go up, penalise that team. No need to make the players nominate like school kids.

AFL took something that was a bit broken and smashed it against the floor until it was completely *!*!*!*!ed beyond repair. They’ve created an absolute confusing mess that even umpires can’t understand.

Re: Game Day Festival of Footy (Round 13-18)
Isn’t the ruck nomination thing got to do with blocking so that you don’t block the ruckman? Or pretend you were the ruckman when you got blocked?

Gee I know as bulldogs supporters we can feel tortured but imagine being a Demons fan. The last 10 minutes of that quarter was woeful

That was an awful game of football. How we are not miles ahead of these teams on the table?
