:cripes:

He seems to be playing ok at least, and even hitting targets by foot which is a new thing for him

EDDIEBETTS with the effortless 40m banana over the umpires hat. Milera doesn't look like a wet noodle anymore, which is good, because he's got the skills. Hampton seems ok in the middle as well, albeit in a low pressure game.

I like Charlie Cameron on the wing, he's got the tools for it, and it opens a spot in the forward line for someone who's a better goal kicker.

I'm desperate for some kind of positive change to our midfield this year, Cameron, Milera, Hampton, even Menzel or one of the new guys if it works.

Baby you can shout at me,
But you can't need my eyes.
carlton player is allowed to hold the ball in a tackle for a full five seconds and then throw it out for play on, Melbourne player gets tackled and kicks the ball, carlton get a free 15 metres in front of goal.

Getting tired of them using the womens comp for giving poo poo umpires a chance.

Good contest so far at half time. Carlton dominating the inside 50s but still a goal down.

First quarter was quiet but a while bunch hof goals kicked in the second.

Seems like a pretty good crowd out past the edge of civilization too.

Edit: Goes both ways. Heaps of push in the backs and high contact going uncalled. Hopefully next season they enforce the rules, now the women know what it is like to play games they can tighten it up.

The bad frees definitely go both ways, the umpiring is just piss poor week in week out.

Casey's past the edge of past the edge of civilization tbh.

Mifsud is ridiculously good for someone who's been playing one year. Both contested mark and once it hits the ground.

We must have given away double the 50s of any other team, and its all just for dumb poo poo like going forward of the mark before time.

Really missing the best midfielder in the competition right now.

Game over I reckon unless they can start running the ball up the middle instead of kicking to contested packs and forcing turnovers.

gently caress. Close game at the end there.

Was hoping for the draw by the end. Those early misses cost us. Still I guess we can play without our best player... dunno about next week though.

Two close losses in a row though, thats tough.

Despite the AFL's insistence of screwing with the rules every year they still consider the 50m penalty for the protected zone to be acceptable.

Ridiculous.

Ridiculous.

The commentators in the Hawks cats game last week said they've changed it slightly. Something to do with the impeding player having to have the potential to influence play for it to be 50. So more interpretation for the umpires.

I guess that's better than nothing. Anything that gives the umpire the ability to say "actually a 50 would be loving ridiculous in this instance" and not blow the whistle is an improvement to that abortion of a rule.
