Gosnells are very good and Canning are better than what was displayed on the weekend. Some big players missing because of a wedding or something I believe. They will bounce back.

Was also at the game as an onlooker and was confused by that rule also. After the game it was mentioned that for the amateur rules it is now a ball up at top of the square. Assume that is correct until someone tells me otherwise. It was a very stiff call for deliberate anyway with the CV player 2-3m away from him on his tail.
Did also see the push in the back and resulting 50m, from what I saw it was a push after the kick was made and resulting point and therefore the kick was borught back to a free kick. The 50m penalty was for abuse apparently.

Thanks BD
If that is correct all good with the rushed behind.
I was close to the other free and the ump said no advantage so how does that work?
Anyway whats done is done thanks for the input though?

have to say the umpiring on Saturday between Valley and High Wycombe was on f8cking POINT!

The 2 umps didn't miss a thing although at times i think they over officiated and the red to the wyccie player should have been a yellow at best but again over officiated a bit.

If that's what we will get every week I'll take it. The players adjusted with I think a total of 4 50M penalties and just played footy all day with barely a blip.

Kudos to the 2 umps

This is incorrect. Deliberate is now in at amateur level and is to be paid from where the ball goes over the line and not given direct in front unless rushed between the goals.

I'm going to double check this but I'm 99.9% confident it's a free kick

hahahaha love that Viper, its incorrect, yet you will just check

please let us know the correct answer so we all know for the future

So there's a umpire for HW?

This rule is not new it has been in for a couple of years now. This year deliberate rushed is being adjudicated the same as deliberate out of bounds which is different to AFL who pay the intention of the player.

I saw the Nolla Vs Basso game and Basso did look very slick! Once Nolla were behind they went the knuckle and were very vocal against the refs and with no leaders shutting the boys up the 50m and free kick count got huge. Basso will do good things this year, hopefully Nolla get their act together or it will be a long season.

haha Sand Surfer, you seem surprised that Nolla decided to play the man instead of the ball.

Ha ha ..... crickets from thems building ridge up and bagging out warnbro!
