No doubt, but he's not a ruckman. If I went back through the pregame thread would I find you commenting that it was ok to play Petty in the ruck?

You are absolutely missing the point of my discussion.. have another go.

The issue is not starting Petty in the ruck, its the fact he hasn't given a yelp at all when in there. Some od his efforts were ridiculously soft.

 

Wow how good was that!!!?? 

Kozzie, classy

Melksham SO SMART

Caleb crazy speed

 fantastic goal

    Turner gets pushed into a dangerous contests = no free. Essendon player gets pushed by McVee = Free Kick Essendon!

    Why wasn’t Kozzy’s tackle rewarded??? Exact same prior op and lack of disposal. Rules for them and rules for us. Maggot [censored]

    Umps won't pay our tackles.

    I'd say it's inconsistency but the umps are quite reliable.

    You're missing the point. He is not a ruckman. He's doing his best against a top 4 team ruckman.

    He isn't going to measure up, in the ruck. Give him a break. You didn't mind the idea pre game. Stick fat

    Take note of JVR work in the ruck so far @BigBadBustling

    This is exactly what I wanted off Petry.

    Can the commentators be any more biased towards Essendon? My ears hurt.

    disco got a a non free there...

    The contact below the knee rule is there to prevent players (Draper) diving at the ball. Yes looks soft and not how the game used to be. But the rule was adjudicated correctly. 
     

    Draper should’ve kept his feet.

    I thought it a player dived for the ball and took out a players legs it was a free kick?

    Pretty frustrating when one of them is Nathan Jones. 🤬

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.
