I mean, honestly - what the hell is going on with the game?

Hawks didnt get a free kick after half time and had 16 free kicks in a row paid against them. How is that even possible, for a team to play the most contact heavy sport in the world and not give a free kick away in a half. It all just stinks to be honest.
Game was really not umpired at all. They let multiple head highs go, heaps of holding the balls and don't get me started on the chucking.

I don't know about that. If I wanted to cause injury to someone, I'd much rather start with them laying face down on the ground while I come from behind than standing next to me.

If he does similar stuff for multiple weeks in a row then I suspect he will get plenty of attention.

I do know - if I really wanted to injure someone I would prefer an elbow to the face than pushing their head into grass. I know which one is far more likely to break their face (I'll give you a hint - it's the one with a hard bone in it).

This is what happens when umpires are told to reduce the free kick count, they have to let some go and they become woefully inconsistent.

Umpires need to pay more frees. Why the F is Hurley engaging Lynch with his back to the footy?

This.

Miles from the ball, not even interested in the ball and no protection for forwards.

Are they still wondering why big forwards are no longer kicking a lot of goals in modern footy?

COMPARE the PAIR

Fox Footy headlines framing the narrative!

Agree. Barry Hall is Exhibit A of how ignoring this stuff can go

Yep clear frees to Jack and Floss in the first quarter that weren’t paid.

Our forwards hardly get anything and I’m really at boiling point here.

They get continually blocked.
Held
Illegal shepherd off going for a mark
Targeted

Watch Thursday how many WC forwards get.

Why aren’t our forwards protected.
Stop all this crap.
Pay the free that’s there

All the cr@p Lynch gets from the opposition I'm surprised he's so contained. Someone needs to have a camera on Lynch the whole match and see what he has to put up with and then maybe then the league can put a plan in place that will end this witch hunt.

Nope can't see it. If Nanks comes in Chol or Soldo is out. Chol I reckon, he looks totally lost atm.

for the past month we have seen opposition teams flood our forward line, with only two talls, our smalls have struggled as the ball is marked not spilled. We either need to continued with the short passes into our forward or bring another tall in there if we are to kick long and wait for spillage. Against the eagles, we need the talls.

Sure and we've won all the games bar one of them on a 4 day break. Changing the structure is likely to have a more detrimental effect. We're already playing Soldo and Chol as basically 1 player with limited game time. Having another ruckman just doesn't work. On top of that Chol is continually behind his man. Majority of his goals are getting behind the pack and finishing off others good work or hoping the ball gets through. He's not been playing in that forward position as a tall anyway.

So I can't really see the Tigers taking up this option of playing all of Nanks, Soldo and Chol. If we need another tall to counter West Coast's height it's in the backline which is likely why Broad will come back.

Feel free to stop watching, it seems you get little pleasure from it.

I'm just glad I've got something to distract me from the current hell that is our world right now.


Gimme a break. Ive been watching the team and game for 40 years. Instead of just 'Walking away' from things that are deteriorating, i'd rather stay present and yell a voice to hopefully lead to change. The attitude of "just dont watch then" *smile* me to tears. Be it footy, politics, COVID news or corporate *smile* you cop as an employee - change doesn't happen from good people shutting up and walking away.

How about we all just respond to the shitness and instead of letting it die, give it another chance to thrive?

Whinging on a football forum won't change the world but sure, whatever floats ya boat.

Crap teams that know they can't beat us if they go head to head decide to flood. This has happened in numerous games this year and the stats are obvious. I've grouped teams below into 3 categories, those where we had an obvious flood to counter, ones where we played better teams and then the others. The stats speak for themselves.

We don't need to change our structure for the good teams. We do however need to finally find a way to beat the flood.
