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


    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. 🤬

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
