Have a dedicated ball bouncer umpire who only bounces the ball and does nothing else. Then have the rest of the umps throw it up when needed.

Scrap bouncing the ball it serves no purpose but to occasionally delay the game while they regather the ball and throw it instead.

Am I the only one who thinks the bounce should be brought back for all ball ups? We sit around complaining about "congestion" then provide the rucks the easiest possible way to continue congesting it with short taps. Add some randomness back into it drat it!

Set the footy in the middle of the center square and let the players run to grab it when the siren goes off.

Now that I think about it, the only time I actually take any notice of the ball being bounced is when they gently caress it up.

Hahahahahahaha suck a gently caress you piss drinking idiot David Koch. After all the loving bullshit maneuvering you did to make Gold Coast give up their home game for your China experiment, you try to also get them to wear their away strip so your opposition won't be playing in the colours of the chinese flag. You chuck a massive tantrum about it and threaten them and then the AFL tells you to sit the gently caress down because Gold Coast are entitled to wear their home strip for their home game. What a loving embarassing nong of a president.

They also made a big deal out of taking over an already functioning women's team in the state ammos, and taking over the women's academy from the SANFL, to which the SANFL replied thanks for offering to help, but we're still running the academy, and the ammo team is so well supported by Port that it was kicked out for a year for failing to pay fees, and - according to people involved with other teams - doesn't have enough players to make a team more often than not, and the first season of the SANFL Women's league is instead being contested by Norwood, North Adelaide, West Adelaide, and Glenelg. Apparently a press conference and a photo op with Erin Phillips in a port guernsey was about as far as it went. NTRabbit fucked around with this message at 14:37 on Feb 22, 2017 |

How many grounds could they even do the centre bounce before drop in wickets & a better understanding of drainage?

As you can tell I was very interested in yet more drug saga so I gave it a lot of attention. Some group not affiliated with the club have appealed to the minister to review the case (there's actually a bit of support for this, the Greens want some sort of review into the way ASADA handled the case). Some other group also not affiliated with the club have sent a bunch of writs to the AFL demanding something. Meanwhile the club is pretty keen to move on, as are most fans.

If some people external and separate to the club in whatever capacity want to appeal, or hell, not appeal, just investigate ASADA's investigation as to how it was bungled/made worse than it should have been - hey go for it. Even though Essendon's shoddy book keeping and Hird's appealing etc made ASADA's job 10x harder. If it's Essendon themselves, gently caress right off. What would appealing AGAIN achieve? You can't take back the time the players were suspended. If you cleared the name/got Jobe's medal back...eh, I'd say the ability to move on here and now means more. That said, I doubt Essendon want anything more to do with it themselves now. They've settled all the lawsuits, the suspensions are done, the shitstains responsible are cleared out. As the kids like to sing - let it go, let it goooo

They'd probably prefer these fan groups didn't bother at all because it just fills the back pages with stuff the club would much rather be moving on from.

It seems that http://www.footytips.com.au/ has some new T&Cs which require reactivating your account - just a case of logging into your existing account and ticking the box thingy. Anyway, the comp details are the same as usual and as far as I can see everyone who was in it last year should be automatically re-entered.
