Call of the night from Wayne Carey (referring to below the knee): I'd love to know what the rule is.......

Newsflash *!*!*!*!wit, it's your job to know what the rules are you dickhead.

I think he was taking the piss about the rule. If there is anything to take out of this is that it highlights how ridiculous it is.

Mate, it's not the coaching it's the players.

I hope so.. but the fact Bevo has had 3 opportunities to address it would suggest otherwise.
If he's banged on about it pre game, and end of each break thereafter then the player's have to be at fault.
But even then would it not beg the question...why aren't they listening?

8 of the top 10 kick getters in the game are Crows and we've had 70 more possessions.

He proved earlier he doesn't know what the rule is mate. Having complained about two of the first three iterations of it, he clearly doesn't know when each was spot on.

The umpires know what it is, and once again it pains me to say, Bruce does too.

Sorry I've just worked out you were being sarcastic.
Go easy with the wit.. I've had to consume a lot of wine tonight.

1 goal in any conditions to 3QTR time is embarrassing.

I’ll babg my head against the wall if I hear Beveridge talk about our effort. Our skill is suburban level and the insanity to handball repeatedly in these conditions is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen on a football ground.

And that goal from a shocking umpiring decision.

Seriously, do you think we're that arrogant from a coaching perspective, with a young team that has questionable skills as it is, to say let's handball our way through these horrible conditions?

Seriously?

The issue should be about our line coaches not drumming basics into their areas if anything, and going as tall as we did. If it was a coaching and match committee issue.

We're clearly poorly lead on the field. Stopping the handball, and choosing to kick if the former is a pattern in normal conditions is something that needs to be policed on the field as it's happening.

JJ 3 misses does not help our cause. They are beating us in clearances, Stoppages and cont.poss and therefore scoreboard. We hve tried hard but running out of petrol in the conditions. That is what happens to young bodies. Richards has faded out, Dale has been useless in the conditions, Webb is Webb getting his usual number of dispoals, and it is all left up to Macrae, and the Bont and Dahl. Surprised Mclean isn't playing better under these conditions

It might be overly maudlin and melodramatic of me..but our season is cooked off the back of this.
That we can't even keep it tight in a waterlogged contest against an Adelaide side missing Walker, both Crouch's, McGovern and Sloane is embarrassing.
