Umpire throws ball in. Throw is short. Ball hits a crows player in the back (he's watching the ruckmen and not the ball). Umpire pays a free against the crows as per the new no third man up rules.

drunkill posted:Yeah, new rule is bad. That's exactly what they are supposed to do. Once the ball hits the ground it's free game. I kinda get it if the player is aware the ball is coming towards them and they choose to tap it, but it's ridiculous to ping a player that had no idea the ball was going to hit them and assumed the umpire would be able to do their job.

boy undead posted:Steele's ability to wriggle some space while in close and under pressure is dreamy. Yeah, it's been a real good game. Our execution is just letting us down at the wrong times and then the Swans are cutting us up on the turnover. Buddy is good to watch. I nearly poo poo myself when McCartin and Gresham crashed into each other. Luckily it looks like it was just a bit of a corky for both of them.

Nutsngum posted:"BUT BUT LONGER CAN RUCCK BETTER" <- Idiots on bigfooty. Yeah, the whole Longer v Hickey debate over there was ridiculous. Hickey was always clearly #1 but (imo) they were giving Longer a chance to take the spot from Hickey. Longer did alright but Hickey just asserted his dominance in a spectacular way tonight. How nice is it to have a midfield that looks like it can stand up to a team like Sydney (even if it is just preseason). Armo getting back to his 2015 form and the addition of Steele () make all the difference. KStevens gives more depth and if Acres can pull his head out (38 disp in the VFL is a good start) then he'll be another great addition. It helps that we got players like Newnes, Webster, Wright and Weller that throw themselves at the contest with reckless abandon.

Windmill Hut posted:I'm obviously very biased, but the Saints vs. Dees looks like it could be the best game of the opening round? Yeah, Saints v Des looks the best to me as well (biased of course). Crows V GWS should be good. Most of the others are a bit lackluster though. Some upsets would make for a very interesting start to the season though. Tigers losing to Carlton and Cats to Freo would throw some real spanners into the works for the losing teams prospects for the season.

This year North is the obvious choice to fall but there isn't a real clear 2nd option. The Hawks are the only other I think might drop out but it's so hard to tell with their ins:outs.
