Love Ross Lyon as Coach again, the way he handles the media, the way he backs his players and their roles, the way he believes in StKilda...again.
I don't think we could have a better coach, there's some serious hope there, I reckon the right man is at the helm. Looking forward to what happens this year, why not the Saints this year?...I say.

Didn't see a Daicos 54 in the tea leaves when fading him! Does make the urgency to grab him in Round 6 after his bye an interesting decision.

Bit too low of a score that may encourage some to sell him, hope not! :LOL:

Reef looked good, I guess not particularly fantasy relevant as did need 3 goals to get to 72. IMO he looked better then Ash Johnson in the Pies intra-club & match-sims pre-season, so was surprised they went with Johnson in the pre-season match.. and Round 0... and Round 1.. :censored:

Traded Steele into my RDT team, probably didn't do quite enough to entice me in SC next week. Half time it looked like he'd go 135+
Big, big win for non Daicos owners. 54 to run through and a possible meeting with Finn Maginness in a few weeks.

Wow โ€ฆ how was that missed ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
You know, I'm actually less sure about it looking at that still shot.

The angle of the camera makes it look like the ball is over a different part of the line to where it actually is - the part to look at is essentially the part directly alongside his planted foot, where you can actually see it bulge out slightly. The umpires were also both in perfect position, directly along the tangent to the arc, and neither seemed to have a problem with it.

This is also why you couldn't review it - there's no way you'd get a conclusive answer from the cameras. The umpires on the ground have the best view.

I must admit it looked a lot further over the line watching live!

I thought they could goal review everything, can they goal review that?
Depends how long you want the game to go for as inevitably the clubs/supporters will continue to whinge at every little thing believing it somehow has any bearing on the result but surprisingly applying no scrutiny on the countless basic skill errors or poor tactical decisions.

His left foot was in, that's all that matters :D

59/54 hope they get dumped :oops:

Although might as well throw S Campbell on instead of Wilson if he starts ?
