Its a great example of how our rules get bastardised over time. The front on rule has suffered the same fate. The sliding rule was brought in primarily because of Adam Goodes, who would slide in knees first to either a) a player already on the ground (the knees intended to damage the player) or b) a front on slide that was dangerous to an incoming player's legs Now, it is adjudicated as the Draper one was. Draper was on the ground and made a legitimate lunge to punch the ball to a team mate. Disco went to jump over him to get the ball but tangled his legs up (ironically how he got the name Disco) and in the process kneed Draper in the head. ANB often intentionally sees a player on the ground and feigns a trip over them to elicit a free, It's not good.

Well we found out that Goodwin has a plan B, we can play in the wet and our contest game is still one of the best in the game. Kozzie, Riv and Langdon were simply superb. Roo was great, Windsor, McVee and even Tholstrup were relentless and provided spark and excitement as did AMW Disco is a great kick, TMac is solid and Melk is just a brilliant competitor. Oliver started to show glimpses of his old self and Nibbler shut down their Captain. May was back to being a rock We are forming a strong belief at the right time of the season and despite Gawn and Petracca, are relatively healthy. A tough few weeks ahead but we are in with a shot.
