| cotchin is a little whinging whining turd. why can't he just accept that he was beaten by a better opponent and get over it. so what you got tagged, heaps of players do week in week out with some, good enough to beat the tag. you're obviously not so get stuffed and suck it up cotchy. |

Cotchin needs to stop being a little sook, man up, and vow to do better next time he's tagged. |
Damn straight!
Says a lot about his leadership that basically no tigers gave him a chop out.
Cotchin does have an exceptional head of hair though! |

I heard Cotchins interview. You need to see the line of questioning fire, to be honest.
That's what they wanted him to say.
It's just like the umpires Coach on Saturday saying they need to protect the player better. Such as, putting the arms around the player before play starts. He said you can do it without making contact, but once you make contact then it's illegal.
I really have no problem with Cotchin on Game Day saying what he did nor do I the umpires coach.
It's going to happen to Swan/Pendles/Beams from next week and we just have to suck it up.
But when you see how Cloke gets mauled every week, then every other player in the comp can HTFU. If it's good enough for Cloke, it's good enough for Cotchin.
it's probably why I don't have such a high opinion on what was said nor am I outraged. it's going to happen to our mids.
<that's putting all the Cloke stuff, aside>. |

Yes, Cloke should get more frees- well done Bucks for saying it - but this type of tagging, from Crowley or Caff or anyone else, makes the game smaller. The umpires should stop it - and after Friday night, they probably will. |
Tagging, a real hard tag, won us a flag mate. In the 1958 GF, against the then unbeatable Dees-going for 4 flags in a row- we tagged the mercurial ron barassi, who was an early wayne carey, an inspiration to Melb. We put Barry Harrison on him, hooker Harrison, who did a "Caff" on him, and literally drove Barassi nuts, he blocked him, elbowed him, niggled, so much so, that barassi hooked him, and got reported.  That hard tag helped us to get the premiership, still the biggest upset in GF history, we were 100/1 rank outsiders to win that long ago day.
I say, God bless the tag, and good on the CAFF

I remember when he paid no respect to Swan after a game, dont recall exactly how it went but basically thought that he didn't deserve the star tag about a great game he had and went down the path of we were just poor not his good play..Something like that.
new straight away that he will always be poor leader and a mentally weak individual ... So I was right! |

yep me too piesnchess
all part of the game
harley whinging about this (imagine if we had done this against ling?)
is like his *$%*&$'ed mate scarletttttt wanked on about our captain
If your planning a game you ask the q
wanna tag? who we gotta tag?
Just like 58 you can only target one or maybe half another player .
It's all about their importance to the team.
You can't just let him get it and dictate.
Good to see Bucks has got Caff in this role. Quieten down the opposition and then take it from there,
go pies

Snag over his shoulder in the first quarter then ran to Dawson to "shove it up him" in the 2010 grand final replay. I remember that one so clearly.

I just watched one of the free kicks Cotchin got from being 'interfered' by Macaffer at 22.37 minute mark of 2nd quarter.
I can't believe people seriously think it is any different to what Crowley does or what happens to Cloke week-in, week-out. Mind boggling. |

Nothing wrong with the way Caff goes about it. I can understand why Cotchin hates it, but it's within the rules. All the elite ball winners cop it.
Then this umpiring coach/manager/director of naught says he didn't like the treatment Cotchin got. Well, well..............Is it what Caff did? Is it, in your eyes not in the "spirit" of the game? Tell us director of naught!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's been going on for yonks (The hard tag). Fortunately for Richmond, they can eat sh!t......with a shovel!!!!!!!!

| Was it the same person saying Cotchin should have got frees that said the mauling of Travis Cloke was ok. |

THIS is the main problem in a nutshell, the lack of consistency. I have no problem with Macca doing his stuff when I see what is done to Cloke and a few other Magpies each week.
This Umpires boss bloke needs to open BOTH his eyes............  |

I don't understand how ANYONE has a problem with the hard tag.
It seems like everyone just wants a quick game where all the elite midfielders are free to rack up their 30 possessions a game and do as they please.
This is a sport, and to win you need to be able to out-play and out-think your opponents. Caff did that on Friday, he destroyed Cotchin (fairly mind you) and everyone's having a sook because it wasn't pretty. |
