monoccular

No ... but absolutely no doubt if Goody tried it next week, and if we had a big win, the AFL would find some way to take away our points on some retroactive rule alteration or introduction. It certainly made us far more unpredictable - I wonder if the midfield and half forwards are given some "secret signal" that he is about to do it? Agree 100% - common sense needs to be brought in. Did the "violation" have any effect on the play?

Very impressed with his cool headedness and maturity beyond his years.

Particularly in the first half his second and third efforts were pivotal tonight. With another preseason and more strength he could be a star. Certainly reads the fall of the ball well, and you cannot teach that.

Melksham pretty ordinary but the secrets he has to have on Goody will keep him in. How many turnovers or missed targets? Weid must be on thin ice though who could replace him? Must be due for a big one.

Let’s hope that we don’t do the Melbournian thing next week. Pity the little b got up though. Would have been Melksham’s best moment for weeks.

MAY LANGDON RIVERS SALEM OLIVER SPARTACUS Honorable mentions Kozzie, Baker.

Don’t you want him to stay in Melbourne? Could send Toby Greene to DC as POTUS - even he would have double the combined IQ of the contenders ? I will feel disgusting, but will hope the Nawks win tomorrow.

Haven’t had time to think, but River Kozzie Baker looking very promising.

Rivers running again! Now, MFC FFS hold on

Kozzie. Holding my breath ... miss

Not much intensity tonight. 5 minutes, Sam.

Goody seems to think coming to the bench makes some magic difference?

2 Frisch good marks in 5 minutes. Must have read my comments.

Lacks any degree of intensity. OMG - Spargo kicks 50 for a goal!,,

Viney had the ball for 1-2 microseconds.

Hopper actually went under Oliver’s legs but I guess we never get those ... twice tonight.

Not the sharpest tool in the shed but one cannot fault his endeavor and commitment

Baker clearly held there ... instructions to help GWS to another shot at goal before 3Q time. 6 of last 8 to GWS.

Don’t look as if they actually want to play finals. Could be a bit of hard work I guess.

Good professional free there Nev

How many turnovers Melksham. Lucky not to give away a fre.

Second freak goal to GWS. FMD

Regardless of result I like the looks or Rivers, Baker, Kozzie

Mumford is a bloody dog but no doubt will get off the head butt.

At least three goals turnover due directly to corrupted umpiring. You can see who the AFL want in the finals. What a disgrace of an organization you are running Gil.
