Even if this was true it wasn't the reason for the loss.


Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

Agree.

But there were some home town decisions.

What about the Hall assualt on Dal Santo's head paid as holding the ball ? :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

Reminds me of the time at Waverley against Essendon when Aussie Jones got hip-and-shouldered in the back and the umpire pinged him for holding-the-ball.

There are always going to be some ridiculous hometown calls, even in Melbourne......

But that was an absolute shocker of a decision and there was no-one anywhere near me that thought otherwise.

from where I was sitting the general concensus with the locals was Dal dropped onto Hall's elbow but after the game mosted conceded Hall would be luckynot to be up before the tribunal this week.
Luck? nothing to do with it!

The idiot behind me last night swore black and blue that we had a dozen more free kicks than the swans, because he had counted them!!

The free kick count doesn't mean a side did or didn't get the rub of the green. We didn't lose the game because of the umpires but I would suggest that the 3rd Quarter performance of the morons in yellow was appalling.

It seemed every time we got tackled it was an automatic holding the ball decision. I swear there was a tackle that turned into a fight for possesion, ending up in a swans player in possesion and held and a swans free kick for holding the ball.

Anyway, we aren't far off, we needed to be a little calmer down the stretch, which has been our problem a few times this year. It means we have 3 Grand Finals to play to qualify for September, bring on Fremantle!!!
