Love Herald-Sun saying north were robbed by a non-50 … saw North players get away with stepping over the mark as well. Balances out all the illegal holds, jumper holds and blocks on N Daicos — did they miss when he had both arms held behind his back illegally (and he soccer kicked the ball). They can all get bent. And Jane Cornes can get bent whinging N Daicos gets special treatment.,

Mr Miygi don’t forget the free Hill got 55/60 from goal and north player walked right beside him when he was looking for a handball give
That takes Hill 5/10m out in front of goal I’m betting he kicks that goal
Then there was a blantant block on Schulz in the last term when WHE was on a wing alone looking to go inside 50. A north player run straight in front of Schulz when he had 3 steps on his opponent 20 from goal
Swings and round about

[Mr Miyagi]

Exactly! Although if the Bobby one happened in the last minute and we lost by a point, I’d probably be going ape in the Umpiring Rants thread 🤣

Umps were loosey goosey with the 50m rules all day, let them all go — I think there was only one 50m paid all game. Which I actually prefer, they’ve been too hot on it in recent games

[Lone Ranger]

It was reasonable for Sidey and Beau to think was was not 15 and so play on. In the deafening roar it was the right decision to reiterate he had paid the mark and bring them back

Can someone please explain to me how when I tried to get tickets to the game on Friday for 4 people it said no I could find 2 though but for $189 each? Only 38000 people turned up!

Yeah I wanted to take my son along, but had to stay home and watch on TV because there were no general admission seats available when I checked first thing in the morning. A pity if there were that many seats being unused.

Some film festivals have a standby queue where if people don't turn up within the first five minutes of a sold-out film starting, their seats can be taken by people waiting. Maybe we need something like that for allocated members' seats at football games.

[Mr Miyagi]

Scott ran a few steps off the mark, should have immediately been called play on. AFL agrees.

Any word on if Maynard was cited? Should have come out by now?

[The Black and White Lion]

Yes. No word on Maynard so has seemingly even escaped a fine. No mention of it in the MRO report so far. Dawson from the Roos got stung for his high block on Crisp however.

What is amazing regarding this match is norf scored their first behind at the 2:45 min mark in first qtr then went on to kick 19 goals straight with their second behind kicked with less than 20 seconds left in the game!

This must be some sought of world record!
