That signature makes sense only if the goal saved is a Supergoal. |

FFS. Next you will be suggesting timeouts. If the other side is ahead they just call their powerplay at the same time so it is 19 on 19. If you are 10 goals up or down it won't matter. _________________ Annoying opposition supporters since 1967. |

What if weaker teams start the game with a PP to try get off to a good start. other teams may keep it as insurance and use an extra defender late in the match.
You cannot use yours when another team is using their's _________________ On the eve of a Dynasty |

20/20 footy.
Two halves of 20 minutes each. This would enable a 34 game season, with each team playing everyone else twice. Gillon would love it. |

K, without a doubt it made the game better and more exciting to watch. It was around that time that NBA really started to explode in interest.

There was a Kobe Bryant shake-hands-and-take-photo event in Melbourne...
J. Howe was there... The Hun says tickets cost $8k.
Sorry, Kobe fans, but I really don't think that's a sensible way to spend $8k.
Has Howe recovered from his Darcy-induced concussion yet? |

So what if there is 5 minutes to go in the GF (or any game for that matter) and neither side has used it? One pulls the trigger first.
The wind is meant to be the variable. And if a side starts with it the other side just plays keepings off if they get it. And how does it have an effect on the 666 rule.
In nay case wit some exceptions the other mob is using the umpires as extra players. Aka numpty failing to see maynard free in last 2 minutes last qtr of the GF.
The change I would like to see is scrap the emergency umpire and each of the 4 umpires sits out a quarter. If a scump , goal scump or boundary goes down that umpire becomes that umpire for the rest of the quarter. With goal reviews it is not that that has to be a highly specialised skill. You could also argue that a similar scheme for the boundaries would work as well. _________________ Annoying opposition supporters since 1967. |
