This weekend will give some indication how correct this little gem will be...

Awful reporting. Early-2000s era News Ltd reporting.

Has the same understanding of counter-attack football and the 'HBF' position in modern football as Synbad-level reporting.


You give Synbad too much clout.


I would ask Synners his opinion first.

The HUN had a footy lift out this week.
David King, Robbo and Dermie had us finishing 13th, 14th and 14th respectively.

New initiatives for Carlton-Geelong clash

Quote:
15 second shot clock – For when a player is having a shot at goal following a mark or free kick, a 15 second countdown clock will appear on the scoreboard and count from 15 down to zero at the point where the umpire tells the player he has 15 seconds remaining. The player must begin his approach before the clock reaches zero (or the umpire calls play on).

Explanation of free kicks during scoreboard replays – Currently, the television audience receives some explanation via the umpire communications system, but this is not heard by patrons at the ground. The scoreboard operator will be connected to the umpire communication system and will activate explanation of the reason for the free kick during replays.

Broadcasting umpire explanation of score reviews - The TV broadcast currently takes this audio and the AFL will now seek to play this audio on the ground PA, pending the audio quality.
but patrons are often uninformed.

Countdown of quarter and half time breaks - A countdown clock will be shown on the scoreboard to inform patrons of the time remaining before play is scheduled to recommence.

Roof positioning – At Saturday’s 1.10pm game between Richmond and North Melbourne and Sunday’s 4.40pm game between Carlton and the Geelong, the western roof panel will be adjusted into a different position to try and reduce potential sunglare issues on the ground during play.


These are all excellent and bring a greater level of professionalism to the game.

Yep ... I really like the countdown clock during the breaks and for set shots at goal.

It'll be a dag if the crowd count down from 15. The players will LOVE that little distraction. But I agree, will add to the 'theatre'.

Casboult won't have to think about it when kicking for goal. Could be a blessing.

Na ... The bomb is sheer genius. Its revolutionary! Other teams will get caught on the hop because they never thought the Madhouse would have the audacity to try it again ... and again ... and again ... and again ... and again!

Bomb it LONG! ... YEA BABY!

The roar article is a worst case scenario basically, but also shows lack of knowledge of things. Judd only a few good games a year? He was his normal self when he came back last year and has had a full pre season.

I agree with Surrey, we could be anywhere between 6-16th.

I think the 1st three initiatives are not necessary. It's a little over the top if you ask me.

The countdown clock to start new quarters and the positioning of the roof to help glare make sense.

The only new initiative that I am interested in when it comes to playing Geelong is that we beat them in a tight contest in the home and away season with the umpires giving us quite a few dodgy free kicks.
That would be a new experience for me.
