    Hodge said 'I think the umpire was on the wrong side there'....yeah, all four of them!

      A good start, though we probably left a goal on the table. Playing with some dare, and we’ve been better going inside 50 this week and lord Logan McDonald is a terrific field kick.
      'Delicious' is a fun word to say

        He already has a decent tank, but he is going to be an enormous asset with his field kicking. He will take time to reach his peak as a forward, but so much to like.

            So the ball hits a piece of loose 'advertising paper' on the post and it's deemed 'hit the post'? FFS!

              Rampe will have a new trick to try.

              Crazy call that for mine.

                Disappointed for Amartey. He started very well.
                The best way to deal with an undersized, undermanned defence is to not let the ball get there.

                  That goal post is rubbish. How can that flap be allowed to stick out like that?

                    Total BS. Common sense needs to be applied.

                      Hit the loose bit of paper hanging from the padding wrapped around the goalpost, therefore a behind. Grrr!

                      7 point play, oh well.

                        ....and are they going to fix it? This is a 'professional' league isn't it?

                            They are a bit short on sticky tape in Adelaide .

                              Bloody hell! I don't like complaining about umpiring but this is starting to piss me off!

                                Surely they need to leave it as it is.

                                Unlikely as it may be - what if a kick later on would have hit the flapping advertising but doesn't and is given as a goal?

                                Silly kick from fox.
