This freeze frame really is clutching at straws. As the match review committee has stated, after watching the entirety of the footage, that MOL made contact with the face in the act of getting up off the ground. As is often the case, things taken out of context can give a very inaccurate picture of what has actually happened.

It looked a lot like an attempted gouge at the time to be, albeit a fairly half hearted one.

doesn't look like a gouge to me but probably a deliberate contact for the purposes of niggle.

i would be very disappointed if any of our players were cowardly enough to gouge somebody. hall's "clawing" of primus' face a few years ago was bad enough.

It might have been a gouge but Hunter may have punched him in the guts on the boundary seconds before (roll film).

I personally didn't mind Dunkley scratching Hird up. It's all about choosing the right target.

I wish there was more gouging in the game these days. It is far too sanitised now, you never see a really good eye gouge or punch behind the play. This is evidenced by the 'pretty boy' looks of todays players.

There are hardly any players who have noses the same width as their faces, and nearly all of them have 20/20 vision !. Also, apart from Dustin Fletcher, i cant recall the last player to spit his teeth out during the game ?

Might as well be playing chess !

Have a whinge, ice cream boy. How's the stutter?

Does anyone else think that Hunter has a head that looks like a raindeer or something?

He has a haircut that resembles a used tennis ball as well.

I disliked his constant niggle during the GF. I dislike him more now. Constantly trying to niggle opponents. Trying to be a tough guy when he is nothing but a runt with a head like a skunk.

Then again, I'd even go for Collingwood against West Coast, the way I feel at the moment. A Toaster grabbed my flag as I was walking with it from the ground to the Irish Club down the road. He started stomping on it. I swear I was prepared to kill him then and there. Luckily CheerSquad Steve shoved me out of the way so I could cool my heels a tad.

Man, I thought I was Diego there for a moment!

I saw one @@@@ing WC @@@@@ running down the street shouting and yahooing waving a Swannies scarf that he obviously snatched off some poor kids neck. Absoulute Arsehole.

No you got it wrong - I gave it to him; he just wanted to feel like a winner.

How much fun did we have walking from the ground to the Irish club We were giving it something horrid to the Wet Toasters. God I've really enjoyed living Perth the last 12 months

I was waving my flag and asking the people in the buses what the score was. They were doing everything they could to avoid even looking at me. You just knew they were not handling it at all.

Typical Eagles fans. They can dish it out and be as cocky and arrogant as they want to before the game, but get really sooky and nasty after the game.

Even the barman at the Irish Club said that he liked Dockers fans more than Eagles fans "because you could have a beer with them after the game".

MOL's instructions were to: "Go out there & tear him a new one!"

And early on in the game he took it literally.
