@codeaflau They've completely taking him out of context to create a story, the state of AFL journalism i guess. Never mentioned changing the site of the grand final, just said that its impossible to have an entirely even competition and gave that is one of the examples.
@JRKenneally@RalphyHeraldSun@FOXFOOTY Barrassi saved the swans twice, first floating the idea of moving south Melbourne and offering to coach them in sydney. The second time he coached in the early 90s when we were a basket case.
@DryburghTom@1116sen Bit of a stretch to blame this on gil, its more of an issue with hawthorns governance. Releasing/leaking that report without giving all parties a right of reply was always going to be a mess.
@natasem150@Thomo_Grant I haven’t seen the Bolton 50m but let’s say it’s a bad decision, isn’t it better to not make another bad decision or do you want the umpires to repeat their mistakes for consistency’s sake?
@Thomo_Grant Does it change your opinion knowing that the non-controlling umpire paid the free kick? Everyone at that contest didn’t react to a whistle and richo who was at the boundary right near where the ball went out didn’t hear the whistle.
@Thomo_Grant Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Melbourne criticized for playing a game at Alice Springs a few years ago? They are scheduled to play there again this year too.
@ggDoA Some book scenes would not translate to screen very well like moiraine growing massive and stepping over the wall at baerlon. But some scenes are made for tv like Perrin avenging hopper, Rand at tarwin’s gap, the best prologue in fantasy.
@ggDoA I don’t have any issues with them making changes to the story to suit a different media, I’ve got an issue when it’s done poorly. All the fake out death scenes and Mary Sue Nyneave and Egwene are cringe. Not to mention what they did to Perrin.
@RationalNerd It’s almost like people can have different opinions. I mean Stepin is a cool character with a good arc but I would have preferred to spend more time with Loial or Perrin and Egwene.
@ggDoA@TheWheelOfTime Why do you think they are doing Perrin so hard? Giving him that sort of trauma and then not having Elyas to guide him seems like a mistake.
@AfroVII There is skyscrapers covered in foliage in one of the first scenes of the show, the characters from the show and book have little knowledge of our age.
