I was thinking the same bloody thing!!

Gary Rohan, Dane Rampe...

I have no idea what you are talking about

What did Rohan do? besides break Bombers hearts by taking a chest mark in the goal square

Given the media and public discussion around the Crows and their umpiring woes over the last 12 months or so it's not a stretch to think the playing group has got some work to do looking past the errors on field as there was some real histrionics last night.

The man in front mark, while an appalling decision, how was it not 50 for remonstrating? 4 players threw the toys out, rightly so I might add but is that another rule like the protected zone that is gone?

That was rule of the month some time back in 2024, "Not 15, play on!" is clearly in vogue now. Can't wait to see what the focus is come finals time!

The not 15 m rule is ridiculous
Some kicks go 8m and they call a mark and some go 20m and it’s play on

Was never an issue previously why make it one now

Seemed like it was rule of the night that they would focus on.

Was probably the blatant hold before he took the mark that sticks in my mind.

Poor old Martin Gleeson got manhandled more than a female Geelong physiotherapist...

Marty was about 30kg wringing wet but yes he was illegally rag dolled before the mark

1. Both holding. Rohan had from spot, too strong. Do better.
2. If you think that cost you the game you are delusional. Cough up a 4 goal lead with 4 minutes to go and kick into the man on the mark kicking out from full back. Choked
3. Only good thing Rohan did for the swans
4. Soon you'll be telling me Leo Barry's mark shouldn't have been paid

Those holding frees get paid against defenders and rucks on a weekly basis. And they say the Swans COLA is the biggest rort...

1 - it was a hold, if it was a defender doing it, it would have been paid
2 - standard Essendon fare, I have nothing to add
3 - Wrong, he left for Geelong
4 - Sampi was held. Free kick West Coast

[woodublieve12]

There isn't an umpire in the history of the game pays that free kick for sampi

[wenchbarwer]

Disgrace, Weagles should have gone back to back. Eddie was right.

I liked the Crows Gather Round gurnsey last night, the Swans one not so much. It not a huge clash but wouldn’t it make sense for them to wear a all red gurnsey against the Magpies instead of a majority white one? Just a thought but then all red gurnsey might not look that great?

[woodublieve12]

Not our best guernsey. But great cause

[woodublieve12]

How much better is fox commentary by the way

[Dutchy]

Swans tyring to handball their way thru the Pies and overdoing it a touch, if they get the balance right they will open it up

[amber_fluid]

Pies looking the goods here

[woodublieve12]

Decent game of footy

[woodublieve12]

I am just waiting fir ladhams to do something stupid

[Armchair expert]

Last two nights have shown footy should be a summer night sport
