As much as I hate it, Jack did give away the free there. Nothing he could have done, but the free was definitely there.

Didn't realise spoiling the ball was a free kick, but you learn something new every day.

I think that's fair, my issue is that Bail didn't get a free kick for a similar incident.
 

Mfc need to protest this umpiring it has been disgusting

He is playing as a loose across back.

Blind freddy would pick up a possies playing that role.

Dont put him on a pedestal for that,wait until he wins a few hard ones.


Unbelievable stuff - holding the ball they don't pay consistently both ways and that final free kick was the icing on the cake of stupidity

Cracking a bloke in the head is not a valid spoiling technique, as much as I wish it were.
 

ive no dramas with the umps.

We can win this and leave SA 2-0

Loose across half back or not he was a lot better in the 3rd and I am no Watts supporter

Explain how? The umpire paid a free for high contact. High contact which came after spoiling the ball. It was incidental contact, never a free.

He'll never win hard ones. He did his best Nick Maxwell impersonation that quarter and it paid off

Should have recalled that last boundary throw in . A disgrace

Jack Watts 0 possessions

Jack Watts 17 possessions and 1 goal

You know who invented the Jack Watts as creative defender role? Mark Neeld. It's Jack's best position because he's not particularly good at winning his own ball, and in the backline he has the space to get the ball from his teammates.

Thats because you have seen their last quarter performance......wait for it !! Anything to get Port over the line

AKA he is doing better than I said so I will attempt to lessen what he is doing.

Still bagging Watts after that . Ppfft

Auugghhh

I reckon that if this is close, the crowd will get them over the line - probably via the umpires

If we get a good start, we'll win.

Watts has played all his good games as a sweeper off half back - less pressure and more time. If Port stick with an extra back, or man Watts up?

Still have to have the intent to work hard and his to smother intercepts had nothing to do with been a loose man

I'll be expecting a public apology from Wayne Campbell

I just did. You haven't been allowed to spoil the ball while making contact with the head since the 80s or 90s.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
