Diving is a crucial part of the game if your a good diver you get alot of free kicks and penaltys. look at are city team this year we have got loads of goals. diving is a new skill that should be practiced at trainings.

So true, it's a joke how you tackle a player and they go down and cry. Then 10 seconds later they are up and running for the ball again.

EG: citynumeruno

what do u expect?

people watch the premier league or even the italian league and see it done and decide to do it...

its a poor choice yes but it happens

every team has divers, so dont say citymumeruno just does it

im sure you've done it

Diving is bull$hit. Its an act of unsportmanship. If you have to dive to get a free kick, that tells me you don't have enough ability to beat your opponent.

good point penalty 5 but if ur a good actor and u can get away with it y not do it. thats just another skill and coaches like that. if u win free kicks and penaltys and score from them god luck.

It depends but you wouldnt complain if you won a freekick from diving. Yeh its bullshit, but in my opinion the better player you are the more successful dives you can pull off

CHEATING...END OF STORY. THE BOOK SHOULD BE THROWN AT CLUBS WHO ENCOURAGE THIS TACTIC. IT'S CRUCIAL THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOU LEARN TO GROW UP. OUR GAME DOESN'T NEED IT AND CERTAINLY DOESN'T NEED THE LIKES OF YOU PLAYING THE SPORT.

So, your saying that Adelaide City should be thrown the book after citynumeruno comments that his team has won heaps of gifts from the referee purely out of simulation

I hate it, but sometimes you are fouled but you won't get the free kick unless you over exaggerate it (i dont really do this personally as im quiet on the field). How many refs do we react to sound over sight. Hear a player scream ahh and he gets a free. So to put it bluntly, diving (as in overreacting) can sometimes help you get the free you deserve.

Oh and anyone at the first team metro v ABE game on saturday would have caught a beauty near the end by adam vizzari. This was an example of what i was talking about. Got chopped, you could hear it, he goes down with a scream, only after the scream he gets the free. After he gets the free he immediately gets up and walks off like nothing happened. Quite funny.

Only if it is being Coached as a tactic. I would take a dim view of one of my players cheating to help win a game of football.

Yes very well said, but if you can dive do it . . ! If your outside the 18yrd and its a crowed area, it is hard to shoot, so dont just dive for no reason but if someone puts a footout tripover it n' dive;;

giorgio chiellini · Post by **giorgio chiellini** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 5:09 pm

well if u are clipped by an opponent its a free kick...but if u keep your your feet lets say in the penalty box the ref may not spot the infringement...so why not go to ground to convince the ref that you were fouled...you cant argue that because thats a rule>>...if a player is clipped its a foul...whether the player decides to take a tumble or not it really doesnt matter because the player who made the tackle is already in the wrong for fouling the opponent

Black_Magick · Post by **Black_Magick** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 5:43 pm

there is a difference between exagerating a little clip to the leg and diving but either way both are and what give the game a bad name

by the way does any body have a diving idol...?
