The only thing resembling a razor that Chamberlain presents, is him being as painful as a blunt one!!

I did not see the match, at this stage I do not know a score even, but I know we lost.
Can we all please take a deep breath.
Last thing we need is to have the Fat Controller shut us down because of someone going a bit too far.
May I ask you all, kindly, to settle? Please?Comment

The hell we do. We've been on the outer since Vlad declared his displeasure with how we showcased his plaything (otherwise known as the AFL) in 2005, and then changed the rules to bend us over from 2006 onwards.
Anyone remember the hands in the back rule (designed to thwart the Swans close checking one on one footy in 05 & 06). Became fingernails across the jersey while we were on top, but now the same rule gets routinely ignored. The quicker kick ins were also targetted specifically at the swans (to speed the game up) but now they have an interchange rule designed to slow the game down.
Not that anything can be proved of course!
The bigger issue for the AFL is how to convince NSW people to come and see the Giants, if AFL haters can point to inept officiating performances such as today's.
Today's game was either a poster game for over officiating and ineptitude, or it was the cause of 20 odd thousand at the ground, and plenty more away from it (as well as the voice of reason Gerard Whateley) suffering from a mass delusion. My money (since betting is de rigeur these days) is on the former.Comment

There was one Hands in the Back against I think it was White today that was ridiculous in my opinion. White literally put his hand up to balance, the Fweo player seemed to touch it for a millsecond, it made no difference to the play, Jesse took the mark and then had a free kick paid against him. To the absolute letter of the law its a free kick, but what sport do the boys play- netball or afl? Saying that Jesse looks like he'd excel at Netball, he seems to like to avoid all contact where possible.
The rule was changed no doubt to counter our tactics and screw us over, which is has royally done. To this day, I still don't think we've adapted well to the new rule.Last edited by mcs; 17 July 2011, 10:36 PM."You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

I run this site with ScottH - I am getting tired ... maybe I'll just let a few of you ruin it for all.
PS - I don't get to watch the game here. But here are a few sobering thoughts ... without the opposition, there wouldn't be a game - Without the umpires, there wouldn't be a game. If we played better and didn't catch the eye of the umpires for doing stupid things, this tread wouldn't have been started, nor be up to post 118 by now.Comment

Just watch the game first and then see if you have the same opinion. Granted your point is correct generally (ie. we do do stupid things, including today that do ask for the umpires to give frees against us), but the umpiring today was at best absolutely bewildering and at worst simply appaling."You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment
