AFL Rd 7 2022 Post Game Permutations Carlton vs North Melbourne

[ElwoodBlues1]

I would like to think every opposition player gets some heavy treatment whenever they go near the ball

We are a friendly team who play a gentlemans game....we have a couple like Stocker and Young(eg Zurhaar) not adverse to handing out a decent heavy bump but within the rules but we dont have cheap shot artists like Horne Francis giving players a clip when they are running past. Jack doesnt deserve that type of BS and it reminded me of that other little prick Merrett who gave him a punch in the ribs when he tackled him a while back. Like to see Jack deal with that stuff a bit more severely and let these cowardly snipers know its coming back with interest.
Some players just pee me off more than others and Horne Francis just has that smug cocky look that I want someone to rearrange his smile for him. Toby Nankervis is another that gives cheap shots like knees in the ribs when players are down on the ground or the odd stray elbow and makes out it was just a awkward accident because he is a big awkward player and he always gets away with it.

Unable to follow the game… someone tell me please how Weiters came to kick a goal?
The highlights reel doesn’t show what happened before his kick. Result of a 50m penalty?

Infringement in the backline then two 50 metres

Weitering got a free kick then as Young tried to mark a dead ball Larkey tunnelled him. Not sure if the first 50 was for that or the melee? Then another 50 was given as North players trying to get back infringed the whatever metre zone is.

The problem is not so much with the rules but the inconsistency of interpretation by the umpires.
Some players were penalised right away last night. Others were given until this morning to dispose of it.
If you apply a strict interpretation a player like Cripps would be free kicked out of the game.

Exactly.

The inconsistency of it was a joke.

Both with holding the ball (or not)
and the 'stand' rule being umpired correctly.

There were times where a player lined up 2m offline and was not play on, there were other times where they were directly behind and just throught about moving and got told to play on.

I said at the time that it was lucky Stocker hurt himself otherwise he'd get suspended.....apparantly it doesn't matter.
