WTF is wrong with low scoring games?
03 March 2021submitted by /u/CantorFunction
So many rule changes designed to "open the game up" and "create more scoring opportunities". I don't understand why this is even a priority. This is to say, I do understand why: the AFL think fewer goals means fewer fans (and there's also the fun conspiracy theory that fewer goals means fewer ads). I humbly disagree. Personally, I quite enjoy a game where goals are coming at a premium, it makes the stakes that much higher for every play. Some of the most exciting games in memory have been low scoring affairs. If you take for example grand finals in the last 20 years, the most exciting ones have usually been relatively low scoring. For me, the ideal match is one where both teams score somewhere between 75 and 100 (not too low scoring but not a shootout either).
I reckon what turns off fans the most is when the rules are too complicated to work out and the umpires seem to be blowing the whistle at random. That's why it took me until age 25 to get into rugby union - before then my under-developed brain couldn't fathom what the fuck all those penalties out of the ruck were for. If you want to attract "casuals", the principle should be to keep the game as simple to understand as possible, and minimize controversial calls.
Also, why is it somehow seen as a bad thing that teams have got better at defending, and are implementing more complex schemes than just 1-on-1's all over the ground? I mean, after Geelong started scoring 150 on everyone in the late 2000's, what did we expect? But the thing is, defence hasn't improved through the AFL doing anything, but rather through the coaches' ingenuity. I submit that if we stop mucking around with the rules for a short while, that same ingenuity can also be the mechanism that will bring us novel attacking methods which will once again produce the 130-120 scores that HQ crave so much.
All that being said, I'm willing to reserve judgement on the new man-on-the-mark rule until we have further evidence, provided at least that the umpires are equally as hot on calling "play on" when the attacking player moves off the line. On the other hand, this business with kick-ins where the man on the mark has to be 15m from the goal square is ridiculous. Why don't you just ball it up on centre wing while you're at it?

Kitchen renovation for under $1000
Written by Paul SupicaWritten on Saturday, 25 April 2020 08:15 in D.I.Y. Be the first to comment! Read 1178 times Read more...
In 2019 I removed an old kitchen from a house that was built in 1975 and replaced it with a secondhand kitchen that was only around 10 years old. The secondhand kitchen was very large and worth around $15000 installed and still had a lot of life left in it, however some of the vinyl wrap was peeling in parts. This damage is why the previous owners offered it for free, but only if new owners removed it themselves. The secondhand kitchen didn't come with a sink, rangehood, dishwasher or pantry, but it did come with a gas cooktop and electric oven.
After I finally brought the whole kitchen back to my house I wondered if I had bought off more than I could handle in terms of the work effort required to put it all back together, especially when I was half way through sanding the floors in the lounge room and now I'm storing the whole kitchen there. Picking up something secondhand is about being in the right place at the right time as it took me several months to find the right kitchen and on top of that it then took me 18hours over 2 days to dismantle and transport it.
I love saving money and turning something old into something new, but this kitchen renovation made me very nervous and my anxiety went through the roof as I stressed over all the many unique alterations that were required for it to fit nicely and look good. Even though I picked up the kitchen for free, I still had to source a double sink, range hood, gas oven and pantry.
In the end, I successfully put it all together over several months after work and on the weekends for under $1000. -
Winter hazards dog owners need to be aware of
Now the summer is over and all the warnings about ‘not leaving your dog in cars’ posts and infographics are no longer circulating, it’s easy to forget about all the winter hazards dog owners should be aware of. I recently posted a blog about things that are poisonous to dogs and shared it in all the regular places. One comment I got back was “I didn’t know about half of those”. So, it got me thinking. There are a lot of things that are dangerous to dogs that we just don’t know about. So, please enjoy my list of winter hazards dog owners should be aware of.Written on Tuesday, 15 October 2019 14:03 in Arts Be the first to comment! Read 972 times Read more...
