goldfink said on radio tonight that although he hasn't seen the betts incident it would've been paid for marking interference. making blind calls must be part of their training! :shock:

ox agreed with the decision and explained that a player who takes his eye off the ball is going to be penalised every time. :roll:

so there you have it folks ... case closed.


And we all know how much goldstink hates Essendon* :garthp:

Yeah but there is one about incorrect disposal; and throwing the ball away whilst 2 blokes are taking you to ground I'm pretty sure contravenes that law.

No such law about incorrect disposal other than for rule 15.3.2 - but that relates to a player handing the ball to another player or throwing it.
