Should've been a free against Markov when he dived but.....nuh.....let's give the cup to these scumbags.

So easy winning games when you know the flogs are right behind you with support in frantic situations like this. Gotta see how long these steroid users last playing like this.

You could put your house on it if it was one of our players who did that they would have called HTB without hesitation.

It is actually good for us that the pies won today - I hate saying it though.

It would be great to know the umps won’t pay a free against you on the last 5 mins - means you can do whatever you want to stop the opposition get the ball.

Their super fast style of moving is too much for these dumb flogs to call/notice a free. Nicely hidden Fly. Only way to beat these pricks is to use the mental game.
 
Elliott hits Dawson in the face. Draws blood. Play on.

What else would you expect.
Yep. Super technical free to Daicos. Then the good ol' put the whistle away for the last few minutes.

Worst officiated sport in the world

Not quite. Saints had 5 frees in 4 minutes at the end of our game last week. And yes good that the Pies won. Only half a game from 8th now.
 
Outstanding effort by umps to give Pies the game
Frees Pies 21 to Crows 12

Can anyone explain what the technicality is?

Im assuming if they pay down field, but your side already has a mark, its 50 in leiu of the df?

Cant remember seeing that?

Oh well 5 mins to go, pies in the gun,

Is the perfect time to resurrect a rule or two.

They have a few latent rules from yesterweek to draw on these days; tunneling, inside protect area, in the back, dropping the ball, kicking in danger, tackling, sheparding etc etc etc

Yeah sorry easy, It was probably a free kick according to the AFL rubbery interpretation book.

Was more commenting like Wayne said that it's almost never called, despite occurring regularly
