Redleg

A few weeks ago Roos said he would become a star.

Better weekend this week lads!

It isn't and it wasn't.

You are.

Saw an article that said according to the author, he was staying or coming to the Dees.

If the AFL website article is correct, he is either staying or coming to us. Other clubs seem to be out of the picture.

Certainly by me it is underrated in his case. lex Neal-Bullen 9 5 14 3 0 1 1 4 1 2 68 Also seems to be underrated by the AFL points grading system as well, placing him as one of our worst players for the game.

Why do you say that? He only missed two set shots, straight in front, both about 15 meters out, that any 5 year old would kick.

Yes.

This is the Rule : if the player touches the post but not the ball it is play on. The goal umpire in this incident called it a goal and asked for a review, to see if the ball touched the post earlier, when CP touched the post. If the video we saw was used as the only video, then we have a wrong call, as it didn't show the ball touching the post and the umpire's call should have stood.. If there were different views and they showed the ball touching the post, correct call. However, as this was Darwin and there would be less cameras and maybe an inexperienced camera umpire, he may have guessed and it was an incorrect call. Nothing we saw on the TV showed the ball in contact with the post, so I think there is a strong chance we got dudded.

No he was asked and said I thought it was a goal, can you see if it touched the post.

Sorry, shot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't put his body behind the ball a couple of times and hacked at it, but agree he was good and was clearly the backline general.

Two wins for the Dees yesterday, in two different states.

It looked like the hit was to his bicep. Went down like he was stabbed.

Didn't notice the umpires at all last night, so they get a tick from me.

Will Walters get done for staging?

Good post.

Just on a side note. VDB's hard 15 tackles yesterday were fantastic and I think he worried and hurt a few of the opposition. If he can get himself match fit, with his size and other attributes he could still be a very handy player for us. Look forward to seeing more of McKenna in better conditions, as it was impossible to assess his ability in the torrential rain.

Billy also has good disposal and set up a goal for us a few times. It is frustrating for supporters who clearly don't know what the Coaches do, to basically call for yesterday's side and finally get it and record a good win. We will never know, but I am confident in saying, that side last night would have won the Port and Saints games.Frost for Petty alone, had to be worth a goal to us, or one less to the Saints. Several of us called for Frost in when Lever went down, with Billy and one of Jeffy or Charlie to add strength, pace, crumbing and better disposal skill. Instead IMO we got a completely unbalanced top heavy and less skilled side and lost two close games. IMO the Coaches need to accept some responsibility for those losses and effectively putting our finals chances on a knife edge. Win both and we are probably safe in the eight.

A fan, interesting. 2 misses from 15 out directly in front, missed marks, missed handballs, missed tackles, misdirected kicks, knocked off the ball several times, lacking in pace and this wasn't his worst game and you are a fan, that's nice.

With another pre season and knowing he is in our best 22, it will make him an even better player for us.

He did our game.

A few of us said 3 weeks ago he should be in, together with Billy and some more pacey crumbers in Spargo or Garlett. IMO we win the Port and Saints games with this side. The Coaches must take responsibility for poorly selected sides, that have cost us a couple of games.
