Will they ever invoke " my" rule, ( the one I made up and no one has ever thought of😉):
The goalposts are "live". Rebounds off them, play on. Makes for an exciting goal line scramble.
Rebounds off one and goes through - 1 point or 6 depending on the post. Like Rugby -

If he's not playing Carlton probably win this

@mariner4life Yeah he was immense last night.
Was a really good game, scoreline blew out in the last four minutes but Carlton were in it for a long time.
Carlton gave us enough to think they could compete for the eight. Saad was excellent, Walsh was great, the backline was solid too. Throw in Williams, Martin, McGovern and a few others and you have a pretty decent side.
Goalkicking will be the weakness, still blew too many decent chances inside forward 50 to beat a team as good as Richmond.

wait I've just paid attention to that graphic. Max Gawn and Dustin Martin are kiwis? Get the fuck out. That's cringey as fuck.

And the other change is the coaches have managed to get the sub back. Despite 4 on the bench constantly swapping, apparently losing a player is the worst thing in the world. It started with a concussion sub, but they have managed to get it for any injury. Stop listening to coaches!
Just wait for players to depart with 'hamstring soreness' late in the 3rd quarter, allowing teams to bring on fresh legs in the final term.
aaaaand a "corked knee" in the first game of the year. What a fucking stupid rule.

If your dad supports the ABs, you are a kiwi.

If your dad supports the ABs, you are a kiwi.I've said it before. Australian mothers, Australian born children, wear and support All Blacks.
One of my niece's class had a supporters day at school and half of them wore All Blacks gear.

Was in jest but I'm sure most of the foreign based kiwis wouldn't object to their kids being called kiwis.

Good win to the Dees yesterday over Freo. Could have been a wider margin had they been more accurate in front of goal, but also credit to Freo for hanging in there and staging a couple of decent fight backs. Was an entertaining game.
And all the more reason to support New Zealand's team, Melbourne, with those two 'Kiwis' in their side, especially big Maxy Gawn. I'll have to look them up on Wiki. Dustin Martin's parentage is well known due to his Kiwi Dad having been deported but I suspect the other guys are similar ie Australian born and a Kiwi parent involved.
