AFL Rd 18 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Western Bulldogs

[Thryleon]

It was brilliant.
Especially when you realise that part of the rule interpretation didn't change.

There was no change to prior opportunity. Yet the umpires are umpiring in a way that makes out it did.

We never received that memo it appears.

I've never been more convinced that removing prior will be a mistake. The game is a terrible spectacle for it and wait until everyone gets on board.  You'll have have players dropping the ball as they're tackled everywhere.

It looks bad and it is bad.
