Umps terrible again. Wicks stupidity started the rot.

Really dumb from Wicks but I think the state of the game is telling when none of the commentators have an opinion on whether he would be suspended when Parker gets a week for a standard tackle

I think Payne caused Fagan a bit of pain with that kick.

[stevoswan]

Commentators are making excuses for the umpires now.

They’re back in the game on the back of some generous umpiring, but we’ve got to convert some of those entries (despite some holding)

They stay silent cause the afl via fox pays their wages. A rotten industry lacking transparency at every turn.

What is Foxs role ?
Surely he is better down back and Ollie up the ground

Yep that is one I do not understand at all.

We are playing well but all our hard work undone by some of the worst umpiring you'll see, mixed with stupid moments like Wicks.

But how we are trying to play is very pleasing.

15 to 7 free kicks at half time.

Surely not!

[waswan]

If Francis can hold his marks he will be a star

If Warner had a left foot, he would be the best player in the comp, runs left alot for someone that doesnt use his left

We played a wonderful first quarter. So, why did Longmire change the game plan in the second to a long bomb game. We were hitting up forwards very nicely. But in the second we just bombed it long.

We also allowed Coleman and O'Connor far too much space. Then at about half way through the quarter we started to get flogged at clearances and stoppages. Now it might not be pertinent but until then Gus and Rowie were playing in the mids. Both spent long periods on the pine.

We deserve to be in front but it’s just another part of our frustrating season. The boys deserve reward for effort tonight. Hopefully, they can run it out and give themselves a chance.
