Have a rant about something that annoyed you for this round.
It could be the AFL, umpiring, Kane Cornes, Channel 7 commentary, Rules or even opposition players etc

Listening to negative comments on SEN even after our emphatic win. Im not sure what else we could have done.

We should have won by 125 points?

The extra time discussions that follow after every drawn game is annoying. A draw is a result.

Agree. 2 points for a draw and 4 for a win.

There's like 1 or 2 draws a year. Its fine. Extra time is just a stupid idea.

I'm not sure how Nathan Eagleton would have helped but I'm all for it.

Perhaps the lights reflecting from his shiny bonce deters the gulls?

Gee whiz. The afl must have missed Chris Scott press conference and his five minute and thirty second monologue on the umpiring and how the non advantage call on Cameron was wrong.

No please explain and no fine.

Honestly I thought the umpire was doing them a favour.

There was no way that kick was "taking advantage", it was as rushed a bomb to a contest as possible and it was only sheer luck that it ended up bobbling into Camerons hands.

The counter argument seems to be that fast ball movement and, in this instance a chaos ball to the teeth of goal, is the epitome of advantage.
