Another umpiring decision where the advantage rule is bogus. Whistle is blown all player stopped Umpire waves advantage Howlett kicks a goal from 50m. Should have brought it back as Howlett didn't elect to take advantage but when realised everyone had stopped took it. Sook up Windy Mill.

What about Cotch getting holding the ball.... when no-one had tackled him!!

Thanks to the inequities of the draw, we get to beat Essendon all over again in just 7 weeks.

Let the good times roll.

Great win by the boys. Especially Rance thought his game was very good hopefully thats the level he see's him self at and keeps at it.
Hopefully Grimes is alright looked like a hamstring.

Think Rance put in everything he had and more, he was busy throwing up while the rest of the team were handing out the footys 

Thought he was very stiff not be best on to be honest.

After watching the game again, definately would have given Rance BOG.

After finally getting home from game last night  , I watched the replay.   

Rance, he still has to have some of the rough edges knocked off him but even Jackstar would have to say he sure puts his body on the line. Impressed with his improvement this year.

Big Browne was totally stuffed I agree but that did not stop him from competing and having a crack, he even won hitouts because he goes for the ball (Angus watch). Good first outing for year and his match fitness will improve.

I think Grigg has had a bad couple of weeks and maybe should be given a run in the 2's. Tucky wasn't the greatest either.

Enjoyed the game, couldn't wait to get home and see the replay to pick up some of the stuff I missed being at the game. Yes that's having a go at those that say if you are not there you don't have a right to comment.

Rance, Newy and Cotch made the Herald-Sun's team of the week for Round 9

No Lids?  Not often a bloke gets 34 touches and is instrumental in turning the game his team's way and isn't rewarded in team of the week.
