So much conjecture purely because there was only 5 seconds left. No, he didn't try to get rid of it. He also got tackled as soon as he took possession and held it for all of two seconds before it was stripped. If you want that paid as holding the ball for the other 100 minutes of every game of every round, against your team, you are crazy. Tex walkers mark was also not a mark. He dropped it before his feet even touched the ground.
Either way, great game and both sides deserved to win. Hawks hand balling in tight situations post half time were the key difference, clean hands and no fumbles at critical times. Some huge marks by Adelaide fwds kept them in the game.
