Need Mr Gawn to find a way to get some more possessions. Can't see him going above 130 without minimum 15+ disposals tonight

FMSC... new recruit Oliver reported. So much for being "bye free"

Same boat for me.

If that report isn't thrown out first thing, then bugger me, what have we come to.

Ok - I have to admit, as a non owner of Gawn, I have adopted defense plan : I placed a 15+ disposal bet on him. Knowing my luck at betting, I thought it would be the best way to keep him low. Seems to work to far

Dees awful, but umps have got bugger all correct tonight, ship 'em back to Vic.

Gawn (VC), Petracca, Boak and Georgiades tonight. Hopefully 700+, but probably not.

...300+ looks good right now.

Awful game so far. These next few weeks are going to be brutal to watch if that's how teams play off shorter breaks.

Genius Play right there

Just having a look at that elbow from Oliver, and didn't look good, but took another close look and it seems his elbow made contact with the shoulder first then rode up over Ladham's shoulder, then made contact with head, so, maybe not intentional. Low impact anyway.

Umpiring again has been woeful. Must be something about the Gabba at the moment. Some shocking showings from the umps there in the last few weeks.

Can someone explain Gawns' score to me please ?

Apart from receiving 6 free kicks I have seen a mark , 3 handballs and maybe a tackle.

If you touch someone is that a tackle ?

Probably 2-3 HO have gone direct to a team mate.

Cheers

Will Oliver get a week or a fine?

4 tackles for Gawn.

The definition of a tackle is...

When a player stops an opposition player with possession of the ball from getting his kick or handball away in a legal manner, or reduces the effectiveness of the opposition's disposal.

So to get a tackle stat, you don't necessarily have to wrap the bloke up.

For example, during the second term Oliver stuck out an arm which made contact with Amon (I think) as he was getting a handle away, the hand ball ineffective as it went to a Melbourne player, this resulted as a tackle stat for Oliver.

EDIT: 6 of Gawn's 7 possessions have been contested, which helps also.

Even if they're not from Victoria.
