2 weeks in a row sides get done by the Goal Umps
Cheating implies intent. It is possible someone can be mistaken in the heat of the moment. But hey, I’m all for removing “cheating” from the game. How do you propose we go about that? If your plan is to penalise players for calling touched when it isn’t, your now saying we need to add yet another grey area which needs interpretation and relies on flawed review technology. No thanks!

It's human nature to advocate for point if you believe you got a hand on it, calling for it to be removed from the game only adds to the overwhelming complexity of how our game is adjudicated. Umpires should just be ignoring the players when they do it (which I'm sure they've already been instructed to do anyway).

Max Gawn's 200th
Max Gawn is a hero, a legendary MFC player. He’s in the same conversation as Ronald Dale for mine. Flags are so hard to come by in this day and age, and he delivered one 67 years in the making.

Umpiring discrepancies
It's all well and good to have state of the art cameras, but the cost to have them at every ground around Australia would be more than people think. Then you have discrepancies from ground to ground where said cameras can be mounted, which changes the angles etc. I get the argument for better investment in the technology, but if it can't be equally applied across all grounds then it's going to create issues of its own.

Irish Recuits
I for one hope we never get desperate enough to recruit a basketball player who's never touched a footy before And before someone mentions Cox, he's so overrated ...

2023 Injury List
Hugely disappointing but on the bright side we have our number 1 key forward locked in for the foreseeable future. He looked good again today before he went down.

Have we officially found our full forward?
Yeah, nah. Josh is the most petrified footballer I've seen in years. Hard pass.
