Close to the end now but I'm pretty sure 7+ is showing all the devils games this year

That's where I watched the first half

There is something I just do not understand about AFL 2026 style, blokes take the footy in clear space and just stone cold drop it when tackled, often after taking a couple of steps, and it's play on.

How is that ruling rational when in the same game you see a bloke like Cripps pinged for holding on the inside of a stoppage, often when tackled and being held before he even takes the footy?

Ditch the prior opportunity and there is consistency across all contests.  ;)

Well, I'm afraid they've already gone halfway to that, and for the simple reason the imbalance in the decision making combined with variability of the stand rule has made things worse than ever before.

You can lay a perfect tackle in the goal square and umpires are afraid to pay the free, even after moments of clear play, that's nothing to do with prior opportunity.

Further to that, when those calls go the exact wrong way, and you've already pressed forward, you're basically screwed by the stand rule going the other way.

We win 93-68

Hewett and Wilson both had 39 disposals.
Chesser had 27
The best Ruckman at Carlton not on our list (or maybe just the best)-Flynn Riley had 19 disposals 39 hitouts and 8 marks.
