Also the depth in the playing lists is becoming more important than in prior years with injuries and short breaks.

Round 12 the 8 game prelude to Monday
- Thread starter 22nd Man
- Start date
No way, Snake. Have to disagree. Just the same as I vehemently disagree with McChins in his call of our last game where that stager, R. Gray for Poort, was wrapped up in a perfectly good tackle by Broad (or another defender). McChins howled along with the PA ferals for the umps refusal to pay a free (or was it paid and Eddie was delighted? Can't even remember)
For a simple reason. Go and wrap your arms hard around a fit, strong mate (with the build of a footballer), then tell me how you can possibly PUSH them in the back simultaneously? Your arms are wrapped up in the tackle, so how can you use your hands to PUSH in the back?
The player being tackled, his momentum may carry them forward a bit or the tackler may have momentum to make the ground up to lay the tackle. Or you may really dive forward in the tackle, as Gray, and others, often do. But it cannot be a push.
I would accept no free if ump thought no prior; otherwise it's caught with the ball. Reward the tackler if there was prior.
yeah, I've always thought the push in the back rule was originally designed with marking contests in mind, not tackles. I've got no evidence for that though.
Yeah, players still just going forward when tackled to make it look in the back (which a lot of them aren’t)
Great result they took a % kick in the nuts also if we consolidate 6 ahead of them we should stay ahead of them going forward.
Had we got over them I reckon it wouldve just about been over for them
The play the eagles next which will be a tough assignment for GWS based on their current form
What's happened to C? I thought he would be back for a big year. Is he playing injured?
Its over. Another team bites the dust after a good old slapping.
offer pick 18 for Green.
And try to get Perryman too.

Jeremy Cameron is just about the biggest onfield *smile* head in the game i reckon.
He goes full sook tantrum when hes getting flogged.
How was the prolonged headlock tackle not 50.
Hes an uber sook with the ticker of a hummingbird. Hed make a great captain of Adelaide.
GwS megastars seem content with million bucks a year.
Kelly looked like the next star but hes not
Id love to destroy Port as an institution this year
