    Thanks NMW - didn't catch the handball. I think I am less stressed!
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

      Yeah, but he took about 85 bounces!

        I didn't at the game either - I was livid. Saw it on the replay later though.

          Probably a bit easier for you to re-watch it. How many times have you watched the 2005 GF LB?
          Bring it on!

            To noone - or himself. And before he was tackled or as he was tackled. Correct disposal?

            (After saying that, ROK did the same for his miracle goal a few minutes later.)

              I've watched the replay about four times now, and EVERY SINGLE TIME I watch it, I can see that you don't win a grand final playing from behind, although it was a stellar second half comeback by the swans. Had the swans played four quarters instead of only two, we would have won the game. Had BBBH kicked straight (off TWO free kicks no less), we would have won the game. Had B1 kicked straight, we would have won the game.

              What if, what if, what if.

              Face it. Wet Toasters were in front when the siren went off.
              That's how the winner of a modern Syd v WC clash is determined.

              Now everyone, go home, watch it again.
              Note how there are 14 other teams that did not make it to the Grand Final.
              Be proud.
              Be loud.

              Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                Doesn't matter where it goes (except OOB). He made a proper handball, hence correct disposal, so no free kick to the Swans.

                  I watch the replay and I'm almost in tears after the first minute, having backed Schneids for first goal and Kirky for Norm, if that free wasn't awarded I could have (almost) paid for half of my trip to the GF.

                  Had we won, I reckon Kirky would have got me over the line.
                  I hear not what you say, for the thunder of who you are.

                    Correct, only potential free kick could have been to Kerr himself for getting dragged down and tackled after he disposed of it, but the umpire put his whistle away in the last quarter for the better part for decisions effecting both teams.

                      Yep, watching the replay I thought in a normal H&A game that was possibly a free to Kerr. Good that the umpires put their whistles away in the last few minutes.

                        They were too knackered to blow. It wasn't their decision.

                          One exception to that I believe - if you handball in the air to yourself you are deemed still in possession.

                            If you take it again then yes.

                              i thought his dash and run was more damaging than judd on the weekend, though judds injured.

                              Kerr and Braun were both pains in the a*** both played excellent games
                              Theres not much left to say

                                Yep, in fact I would have given Kerr the NSM - a very damaging player, generally and on Saturday. Probably pipped by Embley because E had higher stats - misleading measure when given too much weight.
