Is he the one that gave the confusing and incorrect free against Paddy on the goal line?

No, that was'pretty boy'.... the even worse Nathan Williamson.

[crackedactor 01]

Not sure what the problem is? I've heard he is one of the best in the business!

Try watching the 2016 GF and then say nothing is wrong with Stevic.

I think Goal Sneak was being ironic, as BT and Luke Darcy, two commentators which RWO do not rate, keep saying he is one of the best in the business.

Or 2012. Remember we copped 21-10 against (from memory). He was a notorious Hawk lover.

The doob against Richards in that game was a shocker - so clearly a miskick, it came off his boot at a right angle yet someone he did it deliberately

Yep, they really don't even try to hide their bias at times.

Yes, thanks Maltopia. I should've added a

He had a Hawks theme on his Facebook page during the Freekick Hawthorn years. Clear conflict of interest, and should never be officiating Hawks games. For anyone who is in not in business/government, conflicts of interest include perceived conflicts of interest, even if the behaviour appears ethical. The fact that he is such a huge Hawthorn supporter means that there is perceived conflict every time a 50-50 call goes the Hawks way, and thus the company (AFL) should apply a strategy, such as removing that risk (e.g., him not officiating any Hawks games).

We're going in unchanged.

Harry, Campbell, Sinlcair and McLean emergencies. Me thinks Harry for sub.

[Goal Sneak]

I've just heard Simon Goodwin has come down with gastro leading into the game tomorrow. A dodgy linguine has been blamed but I think it's more likely he's @@@@ting himself at the prospect of playing the Swans

ANOTHER article on Chad , afl site

See what i am talking about !

- - - Updated - - -

I love Chad , very obviously , but do we need 4 articles on the 1 kid in 1 week ? What about Mills, he was AA captain . Blakey , robbed of AA , most damaging half back going around . heeney ? Local kid , you would think our media would be all over that . Dylan makes the team finally - not worth giving any time to ?

At least for a change there aren't 5 articles about Buddy!

Interesting McLean is an emergency. Didn’t play last week in the VFL.

Oh Christ, we've been given Stevic. (Stephens and Fleer are the other two). Why does the AFL hate us so much?

Even worse it is a milestone game for him. His 50th Final, so he better not "impose" himself on the game.

Could be worse - we could of copped that utterly inexplicably dreadful Nicholls.

I'd be very surprised if he was rewarded with a Final after his performance in the Saints game. I just checked and he hasn't been selected. But it would be our luck that he's an emergency for our game and one of the officiating umpires will do his hamstring and then we'll be stuck with Stevic AND Nicholls!

I hope there is nothing wrong with Hickey or Reid. It seems odd that there are to talks named as emergencies

Not to worry chuckie, both Sinclair and McLean have been named in the emergencies.
