WP, i just caught the last 5 mins or so on the tellie.
And right at the end a Port player shoved (or i thought it was a shove) right in the back of our backman and went on to goal.
Did you see that and what did you think?
A bit unlucky i thought not to get a Coburg free there.

I forgot to mention Polo. He had limited game time but I thought when he was on the paddock he was very good in close. Not afraid to go in a get the hard ball. I was pleasantly surpised by his skills they were alot better than I thought as I heard his hands were good but his kicking sometimes lets him down.

Clearly he needs to bulk up but gee long term I reckon this kid maybe very good for us  ;)

I was down the other end Moi but for where I was standing it looked like the Burger player was shoved. Some of the decisions in the last especially that one against Pattison were perplexing to say the least.

A certain OER poster is convinced that it was umpire Hendrie in disguise ;D :rollin

It was a very disappointing result to be 10 points up in the final 10 minutes and then lose because they went defensive was very disappointing.

I have to say I was surprised when they threw Schulz in the ruck

Yeah there were a couple of questionable coaching moves.

Flood should have flooded ;) when Coburg was up by 10 points with only a few minutes to go.

They showed Flood's 3/4 time address on the tv. It was funny seeing him firstly not trying to swear on camera then muffling "effing". Not sure why you would remind a team they had lost these types of close games in previous weeks when you want them win.
