monoccular

Seems to be the case. We are being totally screwed by the umpires, and of course by our own goal kicking ineptitude

Seriously if BBB doesn’t kick a match winning bag in the second half he needs to be dropped. Paid the big bucks and hasn’t looked remotely like kicking either of those set shots. Those misses are just totally and momentum killing

FMD. Salem held without ball - no free - goal to Dogs who just cannot miss Our forward disposal is just disgraceful. Thanks Goodwin Williams and Yze

Another f’ing throw ignored. Then a gift free in front to Dogs. Corrupt as hell.

Friggn set shot Fritz. Touched iff the boot. We cannot possibly win this if we can’t kick even the straightforward goals. Now, BBBB, kick this set shot or head back to Arden Street

Frees now 11-4. And of course they get away with about 15 throws already.

Need to make far more use of our limited opportunities

Yet another missed throw - goal Dogs.

Me too

Which way??

Like last night 4 meter kicks give a mark, for Footscray.

Typical Petracca goal. Strength and awareness.

I guess we had better get used to these crap decisions. Now somewhat predictably 3 behinds to a goal.

BB just cannot afford to miss those. Now Dogs grab one from nothing.

OMG it is bucketing down. Goals an absolute premium

Yes but beating top sides is even more impressive and important. Don’t meet bottom 4 in the finals. Visa, Hird, Buckley … ?Goodwin?

I wonder what the Japanese theme for the torch lighting will be? Kamikaze pilot??

Correction - 4 meters, it seems.

Just watched a few minutes only as I really DGAF re the result. (We need to only think of winning our games and ignore the rest, given that we are still currently on top. Any other mindset will lead to another season of MFCSS disappointment). Has the distance required for a mark been reduced to 8 meters, without the public being informed? And holding on after a mark is apparently now ok. 7 commentary again awful. “Was that deliberate? Oh, didn’t go out??”

Mmmm. So just a few games short for a father and son pick for us then - no doubt Scott would have a public gripe though had dad play for the Cats.

That describes the fans’ general feeling after the Hawks Gane

One wonders whether, had VFL been up and running, would JV have had a week or two there? But given that it is not then he needs match conditioning and AFL is the only place offering that right now.

Beautiful summation

Well, in fairness, most people would try to be incredibly slow if that was their allowed task. ?

And has happened (at least) 3 times this year. Are these highly paid professionals not bright enough (or unfocused, or arrogant) to realize this? Maybe it should be one of coach Godwin’s “learnings”?
