Funny, every year the AFL can find new rules, introduce new interpretations, have clamp downs on this, clamp downs on that.
But it can’t (read won’t) do a single ***** thing about blatant throwing that has been rife in the game for a number of years.
As I said on the night, the one from Treloar was just outrageous.‘Did it all night’: Return of Dogs’ cheeky ‘handball club’ exposed

The AFL want a different team to win every season Pussies excluded they can win as many as they likeAs I said on the night, the one from Treloar was just outrageous.
We’ve got four of these duds out there now - and that’s what they are DUDS - and yet not one of them could make a call on that Treloar underarm throw or a host of other throws on the night either.
I’ve never seen anything like that game on Friday night. It was completely against the intent of what Australian Rules Football is supposed to be.
Then again, we’ve got a corrupted, dishonest, agenda driven AFL running the game so what should we expect.
It’s understandable. After all the hope the dynasty of the first few rounds of last year gave them……….Lots of Cartoon supporters critical of their team and coach
They were expecting to go all the way this year
I’d rather it be the grand final rematch. That shares the occasion around, but in saying that, there’s never a guarantee that it would be good gameLove ANZAC Day. The meaning, the ceremonies, the poignancy. But if there’s one thing I’ve never been able to take to it’s the game between Essendon and Collingwood. I dislike both clubs and their fans too much to have any investment in the game what so ever. In fact, I rarely watch the game and if I do, it’s usually just bits and pieces.
Dunno why but I’d rather see just about any other match up - even Cwood v Carlton. Weird.
Just no interest in watching these two play each year. Brings the day down a bit for me.
What made that idiot Sheedy come up with Scumwood as the opposition team? Surely, he would've known his old team, us, had a big enough supporter base.....especially as we were getting better through Swooper from 1993.Love ANZAC Day.

Is it forget what happened to Sydney Monday??
Where's the fken headlines??
'Longmire running out of excuses'
'How much longer John'
'Sydney are scared of Geelong'
'Longmire needs to step down immediately'
It annoys the crap out of me when they read accolades for past Pies and Bombers players and mention how many Anzac Day medals they have won. It's a bloody home and away match.Love ANZAC Day.

It’s awesome. Whoever that was singing, very very good.Love the Kiwi national anthem, puts ours to shame.
Love the Kiwi national anthem, puts ours to shame.
When gallant Cook from Albion sailed,
To trace wide oceans o'er,
True British courage bore him on,
Til he landed on our shore.
Then here he raised Old England's flag,
The standard of the brave;
"With all her faults we love her still"
"Britannia rules the wave."
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia fair.
Agree. Still rate the Pommies one as the best of all.Love the Kiwi national anthem, puts ours to shame.
The Kiwi anthem is a ripper. It fires you up, ours puts you to sleepHmm, not sure about that although being sung in both Maori and English is good.
That said, our national anthem, geez it is a shocker.
Then there's the verse we never mention:

Can we get something better? That song is simply awful, but a lot of national anthems are awful so I suppose why not?

PS: agree on the woman singing the NZ anthem, clearly a trained voice but also very good voice. Can actually hold notes!
