P W L D F A % Pts So did we all have a nice break? I hope so. The first eight matches of 2008 saw UNSW Hawthorn Hakws 11 10 1 0 1290 969 133 40 take out top spot with only one loss with the Geelong Cats 11 10 1 0 1218 955 128 40 Demons close by— what team will step up in Western Bulldogs 10 9 1 1 1352 1049 129 38 the remaining 10 rounds? The Eagles? The Bombers? The Magpies? Adelaide Crows 11 8 3 0 1134 938 121 32 Sydney Swans 11 7 3 1 1090 816 135 30

Collingwood Magpies 11 7 4 0 1173 932 126 28 Last weekend’s First Division Matches saw the Bats take to the skies with the Jets and win comfortably, the Cam- Brisbane Lions 11 7 4 0 1191 1057 113 28 den Cats notch up their first win of the year against the Rams, the Goannas pip the Mac Uni Warriors in a very tight contest and the Wolves beat the Sharks. The Wolves deserved their rest after beating the Bats and the North Melbourne 11 5 5 1 1071 1114 96 22 Sharks over the last two rounds - they are now the outright flag favourites! See below for my tips for First Division. St Kilda Saints 11 5 6 0 1048 1071 98 20 Carlton Blues 11 5 6 0 1043 1134 92 20 Gore Hill Oval will provide a great spectacle of football this Saturday when the North Shore Bombers take on the St George Crows. The Bombers have been in great touch winning their last two games after a disappointing start Port Adelaide Power 11 4 7 0 1087 1091 100 16 to the year, whilst the Crows are sitting pretty in third position on the ladder after only losing two games in their Richmond Tigers 11 3 7 1 1073 1203 89 14 first eight. Declan Donohue, Michael Holmes and new recruit Maurice Goolagong have been in sparkling form for West Coast Eagles 11 2 9 0 850 1168 73 8 St George whilst Cameron Holmes, Adam Lord and Adam Sutton have started to fire for the Bombers. It should be Essendon Bombers 11 2 9 0 955 1371 70 8 a tough contest but the Crows will be too strong. St George by 33 points. LADDER AFL

Fremantle Dockers 11 1 10 0 962 1139 85 4 Out at the Village Green this Saturday ladder leaders UNSW/ES Bulldogs take on the Campbelltown Blues. This Melbourne Demons 11 1 10 0 751 1281 59 4 might seem like a lop-sided affair on paper but the contest should be close. Brad Abbott, Stephen Pech and Max Collett are looking the goods for the Bulldogs, whilst Shanan Kershaw, Mark Skuse and Ashley Condon are playing well for the Blues. The Bulldogs will win this interesting encounter. UNSW/ES Bulldogs by 20 points. Geelong 19.13.127 def. North Melbourne 17.12.114 Adelaide 22.14.146 def. Richmond 14.12.96 The Balmain Dockers have shaken the monkey off their back and now will be looking to scare a few sides in the Sydney 12.11.83 def. West Coast 11.12.78 last ten rounds of the year. They take on the Sydney Uni Students at Drummoyne Oval on Sunday - can the Hawthorn 19.16.130 def. Essendon 12.7.79 Dockers provide the upset of the round? I’m sure Damien Hall has his troops primed after a nice week off, though Brisbane 14.12.96 def. Fremantle 10.14.74 usual suspects Napper, Blums and Davis will have to fire and curb the likes of Lee, Carr and Healy - an unlikely Western Bulldogs 15.16.106 def. St Kilda 11.13.79 situation. Sydney University by 50 points.

LAST WEEK WEEK LAST Carlton 10.15.75 def. Port Adelaide 8.15.63 Also on Sunday the Wollongong Lions take on Pennant Hills Demons at North Dalton Park. The Lions have been getting off to fantastic starts lately though not going through with the job whilst the Demons are looking like a Friday June 13 premiership contender sitting second on the ladder. Philp, McConnochie and Bartlett have to play well for the Essendon v West Coast at Telstra Dome Lions to get anywhere near the likes of Carey, Crisfield and Angel. Pennant Hills by 55 points.

Saturday June 14 DESK THE BEHIND Western Bulldogs v Brisbane at MCG The East Coast Eagles travel out to Picken Oval on Sunday to play the Western Suburbs Magpies in what should Frermantle v Kangaroos at Subiaco be a great encounter, The Eagles have started to hit their straps whilst the Magpies are playing good football - Sydney v St Kilda at SCG Coulloupas, Vlatko and Ryan have been in the Eagles best whilst Withers, Mendola and Linsen are playing good Adelaide v Hawthorn at AAMI Stadium footy.

In an effort to achieve consistency in decision-making, there is an emphasis on understanding the “spirit of the laws” (i.e. the philosophies underlying the laws) and officiating according to the seven spirit of the laws.

50-METRE PENALTY

“After a mark or free kick has been awarded, a 50-metre penalty will be awarded against the opposing team which unduly delays the play or abuses an umpire.”

An unduly delay of the play includes:

- Going over the mark before the umpire calls play on; - Not returning the ball directly to a player after he or she has been awarded a mark or free kick; - Unduly holding up an opponent after that player has marked the ball; - A player not involved in a marking contest holds a player who has marked the ball or has been awarded a free kick.
