Yep and they’ve been doing it all season. I reckon the goal umps even have a whistle so they can pay a free if the 1 players are not inside the goal square.

Surely it’s time for Toby to get a kick... maybe even of the ball.

Yep, I haven't watched today's game yet, but it sounds as though it resembled the past 10 weeks or so. Crap skills and non existent forward efficiency. Just a very ordinary football team.

Great to see the Lions win on the road. Perhaps the most entertaining team in the comp to watch on a consistent basis (admittedly it's slim pickings)

Hang on! Is this a still salty jibe at the umpiring?

Yeah it was, I thought you were at the top of your game. All down hill from here though.
