C'mon Ron, time to get with it - although Aussie Rules is not so popular in Canberra as far as I know.

Geez, you have to ask me about the Saints this week! They have been involved in a controversy. On the weekend they played Fremantle and Freo were 1 point ahead when the siren went. Unfortunately, the umpire didn't hear the siren and the game continued and St Kilda scored a point, making it a drawn game. Obviously Freo complained to the AFL about this and rightly so, the decision has been overturned, giving Freo the 4 points.

Here's a link to The Australian newspaper if you're interested.

BTW - CROWS RULE!!

Hi Fay CTB here - Longtime NOOLer/current lurker/Community2 contestent. :) Sorry to chime in at this point, but there is no way Freo deserve the 4 points for this...unless we disregard trivial things like rules, of course . If the umpire doesn't signal the end of the match, the game isn't over, the siren sounding per se is irrelevant - it's been that way for decades.

Having played a lot of country footy in my youth, these issues occur regularly, particularly in cases where the siren is some bloke honking the horn of his holden ute.

BTW - sorry, Crows are pants CTB

Hi CTB,

There's been plenty of debate about this but I think the AFL got it right and definitely need to look at changing the rule book. Anyway, we could argue the point until the cows come home but think I'll just agree to disagree :)

So who do you follow? Please don't tell me it's bloody Collingwood

God forbid, Fay - I have a massive aversion to Collingwood, can't stand the turds. As you might have guessed, I'm a saints man, so arguments on 'SirenGate' are particularly pointless in my case!

GO SAINTS!

The Headline says Crush not Kill

They must be fat crows to crush a bulldog. So fat they can't fly. Sure they weren't penguins?

Maybe they were just miniature bulldogs?

Maybe it was a pottery bulldog and the two fat crows were really bulls in a china shop.

Maybe it's just an attempt to sour relations between the bird and dog communities by inciting carrion to senselessly slaughter innocent puppies...

Thought as much

Turds, hah, I like that. Don't you hate the way they think they're the only team in the league?

More the fact that they think they require special treatment. "..but we're Collingwood!!" So fcuking what, Eddie - everyone else has an away strip!

Don't get me started, Fay. Oh, I see you already have. ;)

Can I take this opportunity to shamelessly plug my Community contributions? Probably not

Yup, the bloody AFL should have the guts to stand up to him and make them have an away strip - who the bloody hell do they think they are? I'd impose a 4 point deduction if they didn't comply!! :D

Anway, Crows to beat the feral Port today
