FA is something that could really work in our favour as we start to rise the ladder so I'm not too worried about it. It's going to work well at times and bad at other times

I don't see how that could have happened isn't it against the rules to sign someone while they are contracted elsewhere?

Maybe Zaharakis will look to leave as the only player to reject injections once it's all done and dusted....

I love Gawn but I'd be swapping him and Salem for Mckenzie and Kent. We are too top heavy so kent and jkh forward will help. Also need jkh to start on the ground

Though I don't think it would have changed the result the umpiring was deplorable. From what Vince has said the umpire had no idea that Jetta had hand balled and then to rule it as not allowed to play on is stupid if he isn't watching the game. So hopefully that ump gets sent back to the VFL. And secondly when will the AFL step in and stop these ridiculous holding the ball decisions when 5 guys lay on top of someone. It happened both against us and for us and I was one who called holding the ball because I know they will pay it. But I hate the rule it is a joke and then to see Seedsman run 20+ metres have a bounce and then get caught and spin 360 shows how wrong they have it. That should be holding the ball as he has had an eternity to decide and was caught. Don't penalize the guy at the bottom of a pack who is being laid on top of.

I don't understand why Barrett is so confused. To me it is actually black and white. If your sole purpose is to get the ball and you have incidental high contact that is fine. But if you choose the other route and bump someone then you're in trouble. How does this guy have a job seriously???
