Round 7 - the "i can't believe it's not postponed " round

[scottmac]

So 1 game, Adelaide v fire chickens. A draw sees them both more than 1 win below us and having played 1 more game. If prefer that but f**k Adelaide. 0-4 to the Gong. ? I mean fire chickens ?

AU+VAR=Goals.

What is it with Adelaide being played into games by the ref at home. Plus that pen shot by Goodwin is illegal. You can't stop like that during the run in.

 

[scottmac]

Can't believe they're talking up Adelaide here. They would have got done by literally any other side here without VARdelaide helping them out

The penalty was very soft but the ref didn’t bring Adelaide in to it they were all over the nix just very wasteful. Still I think that says more about the nix than Adelaide. Victory will be too strong for them as long as Popa doesn’t try to play the 2nd team again.

It's only feinting at the end of the runup that's illegal.

Eh, both penalties were valid IMO. The one without VAR was pretty clearcut.

Agree, he did it well and just within the law and if the keeper had stood his ground Goodwin would have butchered it as he couldn’t get a lot of power on it. Agree with the Pens, under the laws they were both fouls. Nix looked very ordinary, they probably wish a few more players had the Rona so they could have postponed.

shaun evens trying to prove he's worst than ams

If drive bys lose it after 2-0 up surely it's bye bye Robertson

I didn't realise he wasn't there. That'd be cruel - but awesome

Tested negative to Covid, but felt unwell so stayed at the hotel.
Probably nerves. Shitting himself.

Was a great game, wsw would feel they’ve been robbed by the non handball decision on Griffiths and I’d find it hard to disagree.

 

[Ozhammer]

There has been a long debate on here about handball during which, I am sure someone has said that contact from the ball with the upper part of the arm is no longer deemed handball.

Very, very similar to when we had a penalty against Brisbane a couple of seasons ago.
I can't remember now but I think it was over ruled by VAR,

 

[scottmac]

So still 4th and a game or 2 in hand right down until 9th. We're doing well here. Bullshite the only team in front taking into account points/games in hand and we have one against them.

Some great results!
Other teams are giving us every chance to slide into top 2.

So let’s slide….

 

[Ironbark]

I felt like we could beat anyone before the postponements
No reason that can't continue!
