The biggest oddity was north winning

West coast were robbed

[@blaikyoung1995]

Harley wasn’t playing that’s why

[@samuelmcgill]

Some weirdly harsh criticisms here. Especially the Hipwood kick to Lohmann. Lohmann points to the hole and Hipwood kicked to it, way higher percentage than bombing it to the pack.

[@holdingthebull]

In my opinion... kicking it to a marking contest near the boundary is a safer option. Kicking it towards the corridor can lead to the opposition getting the ball down the other end with an easy transition.

[@ron3930]

@@holdingthebull he didn't kick anywhere near 'the corridor', as @samuelmcgill said, he kicked it where Lohmann pointed to. Having said that, it wasn't a great kick which unfortunately meant Lohmann had to put his body on the line for it. But the intention was 100% correct. It's a lot harder to score from the boundary than from where Lohmann would have been if the pass had been perfect. And by the way, if he stuffed up the kick toward the boundary it might just have gone out on the full. I agree, I think the Hipwood criticism was harsh. But hey, my opinion is worth the same 2 cents as yours 😉, you did pretty good on the rest of 'em and picked up a subscriber.

[@johnpetith5523]

Towards the corridor as opposed to towards the boundary sounds like a fair description to me. A risky kick yes. Lohmann pointed to the hole yes. Worth the risk? ....

[@JusGiveMeMyMoney]

@@holdingthebullhipwood isn’t a bad teammate as he carried his team to victory 🫠🫠🫠

[@ron3930]

@@johnpetith5523 I reckon it's worth the risk. If you don't take any risks in a game of footy, you probably won't win against a team that does. Besides, don't take risks in your defensive fifty, by golly, go for the boundary. But kicking into your attacking 50, with a pass he'd probably nail 9 times out of 10 ... yeah, worth the risk 😉

[@LordMattman]

Toby Greene got a laceration from the bump and they used the headgear to hold the bandage on.

[@Zelmazam1]

Came here to say that

[@thomes7318]

In the blues v bombers game a 50 was given because Martin stuffs up a kick to give the ball back to the Carlton player after a free kick. Then later in the game a Carlton player stuffs up a kick to give the ball back to the bombers player after a free kick, it goes even further away and no 50 paid. I understand free kicks being inconsistent, but at least make the 50s consistent.

[@MrDude50]

With the holding the ball on Elliot Yeo one and Jy Simpkin tackle, I’m a local umpire so I may be wrong but he was payed for holding the ball because did not show an attempt to get rid of the ball. I agree they are very inconsistent the AFL umps on it.

[@PixelKnight46]

Surely Xerri's chase on Liam Ryan should get a mention

[@gfunkera]

The idea that free kicks can't be called at certain points in the game is silly. The free kick is there and they should call it. It is swings and roundabouts for all teams, sometimes you're on the right side if it but the umpires shouldn't let a free kick go unrewarded just because there is under 3-mins left in the game.

[@Cash_Welch]

The GWS Hawks free was there and they have actually been paying that free for most of the season. The West coat North free from what I have seen talked about was done for dragging it back in as he was over the ball then goes up to his knees but is definitely harsh as they haven't really paid many of those from what i've seen. The Gc saints free was just BS lmfao

[@djbrak1434]

Crows had 3 players kick their first goal for the club which was odd. Dropping our number 1 ruckman was odd, recruiting midfielders but then refusing to play them in the midfield is odd, all of this makes extending contract of coach who has never made the finals very odd.

[@dylan27014]

3:25 holding the ball looks fine to me, Hes on the ground and elected to drag the ball in rather than punch it out. Classic dragging the ball in, holding the ball free.

[@FM_CAL]

Yeah, the WCE & Suns got done over really bad with those calls, I think the Hawthorn one had a bit of merit to it but Sicily likely put a bit of mayo on the bump.

[@BasedMothman]

The Yeo one is literally HTB for dragging it in and not disposing of it, right after Yeo committed an uncalled high tackle too. West Coast deserve a 50/50 call at home going against them too after Margetts gave them 800 in a row.

[@jimmyohara2601]

Giants & Suns were robbed, Eagles were NOT 🤷

[@THEHUNTINGGURRU]

so sick of umpires making mistakes and being unfair, need some consistency from them, one pays free keep, one calls holding the ball

[@sleek86]

im honestly surprised that the afl have gone to changing the rules as a first priority instead of brining in soft headwear as a compulsory. if you make it part of the uniform then the players dont have a choice. i honestly think it should be introduced league wide and in all formats of community level afl.

[@Eaglesfan008]

You missed the oddity where Jake Waterman got double dacked then kick a point

[@Iamthegoat565]

Ngl I don’t mind it was nice to see north have a win

[@chadchadderton]

Crows fans: "The umpires hate us" Meanwhile the umpires: Ignore mark keanes blatant throw @ 2:45 20m in front of goal in the 4th.

[@zadatakz]

Not a throw, gets a hand to it. See the 2018 "Goal of the Year" if you want to see a throw

[@chadchadderton]

@@zadatakz It's not about getting a hand to it, it's about the fact that he hit the ball with an open hand while in possession. For a handball to be legal it must be a clenched/closed fist. You're clearly not a footy fan.

[@itzmeswanny2270]

Elliot Yeo definitely should have been called for holding the ball because he dragged it in and that is the rules

[@thomes7318]

Tsatas for the bombers who shanked the kick is legitimately an afl listed player who cannot kick better than a local footy standard. I've never seen an afl player who got by simply by being good on ground level and having a quick handball with zero kicking ability. You will see a shank every week if he decides to kick it, he had a set shot that was a floater that travelled 35 metres this week too.

[@stormtrooperdarthvader5086]

Bro is stalking us at school 😂

[@papleylivesrentfreeinurhead]

kelli kept mixing up cj and chol, and bt did the same for a few of the pies boys.

[@purplexs2506]

A weird set of umpiring calls - too eager to pick out a free when play-on would - or ball-up - be more deserved. Weirdest of all was the Andrew Mack / Max King free against the defender: which I consider a good call, and the AFL goes and disavows it! In other words, it's a officially a good thing for a defender to manhandle a forward when the ball is 60 metres away? Who the hell is running the AFL umpiring review? Steven Silvagni?

[@minirobo7904]

I believe Hipwood also marked his own falcon at one point

[@hoktv_612]

How was Pickett Giving The middle finger to the Collingwood player not featured?

[@cjbaker55]

Elliot Yeo HTB and Sicily FAD were 100% correct. Dive/drag is a free kick

[@afez2752]

How did you miss the Guelfi flop in the third? It was massive.

[@Amity1DotA]

maybe go and read the afl rules specifically the section on dragging the ball in

[@Toomaletoopaletoostale]

[@lucasstewart6906]

The hawks got robbed all day and we still won because of that free kick which was the most luckiest thing otherwise it could of been a tie or a giants win so I was extremely happy with that result

[@jackduncan7214]

Umps gave 3 wins away

[@SS.EDITS0]

Which ones

[@jimmyohara2601]

2wo actually. Giants & Suns were defeated by the Umpire/s, Eagles were legitimately BEATEN by the Kangaroo's 😅👍.

Only one Geelong Sydney oddity, surely could have thrown a couple more in there?

[@jimmyrecard6021]

yeh, like how Geelong manages to lose after a 30 point lead.

[@OverconfidentCromSupporter]

Can't post oddities if they're not there

[@Patrick______]

@@jimmyrecard6021mate it's Sydney at the SCG, pretty hard to hold a lead for long

[@AnthonyLeighDunstan]

The other oddity was the identical mirroring of the same non-call up the other end. Even Stevens I say (though at the time I did almost eat the cushion when the swans touch/cats mark wasn’t called).

sicily very soft and the even if the free is there, shouldnt it have gone back to sicily because it went on the full?

also do u think he called yeo htb to make up for missed high?

BTW the head high and in the back from yo was ok was it? fucking bunnies

[@captainpoppleton]

3:25 this free kick was correct - he picked up the ball and both his knees were on the ground. Instead of disposing, he goes to stand up - that's your prior.
