I'm with Waldo. One of the best features of aussie rules is the specky mark. The current rules/play mode favours handball over kicks. I reckon no double handballs should be allowed and the player accepting the handball should only be allowed to kick no matter what. That would increase the long bombs going forward and give us chance to see more marks.

I took your story as a bit of light hearted entertainment.and thought it was GREAT.
Maybe I am wrong,but some take Football too seriously.
I know I live in GEELONG.
If you don't follow football here,they think you are very strange

I thought it was a really good Grand Final. Hawthorns courage was great. Lots of great highlights great tackles some really good goals. It was a match that had plenty of surprises. I liked it a lot.
I don't like the way tacklers are allowed to tie a player up and the way they drag a ball back under the guy that had the ball to try and sometimes get a free kick. I don't like the way a player isn't given much chance to take on a tackle, I don't like that a player might have his head over the ball and not really even have possession but someone will tackle him and he will be penalised. I do think the guy going for the ball should be looked after more than the guy that is late in or hanging off the contest.
BUT can you remember a time ever when we weren't fighting about the rules?

you pies have a problem with believing your own propaganda. Trouble is your players believe it too and get sucked into believing they are the best thing there is without backing it up with Premierships. That's why you have been premiers in the first week of June more times than I care to remember.

Everyone wants to be a Tiger, even Cats full back Mathew Scarlett.
Taken earlier today
And as this thread is devoted to not watching the Granny, it reminds me of the most bizarre “not watching” the game story ever. Happened in `06 when the Swans v Eagles met up for the 2nd year in a row and Fox Sports naturally wernt allowed to broadcast the game, so instead it showed the replay of the game the year before in `05. Now the bizarre part was when the ratings came out, that game rated an average 40.000 viewers for its entirety. So how would 40.000 people get confused and watch the previous years game and not watch the current one live? Very strange.
