Well it looks like the story in tomorrows Victorian papers will be how the umpires keep changing the rules willy nilly, as that 10+ metre handball would have been a free kick if it had gone through the behind post, so it must have been deliberate out of bounds when it went over the boundary line instead.

Here's the exact moment he disposes of the ball towards the boundary line:

Yep, the AFL will come out and say that it was a mistake. A mistake which had a direct bearing on the end result but that means absolutely nothing to Dees fans just as it meant nothing to Lions fans earlier this season.

Mistakes like this shouldn’t have been made in the first place. This is a professional sport and should be umpired professionally accordingly.

C Oliver:
Last 2 VS Adel: 204.5 from 2 (low of 204 and a high of 205)

Melbourne face the Crows again later this season.

 

[AngryAnt]

Clarry scaled down to 204, Max to 124

 

[BigRuss]

Ripper game ruined by a couple of absolutely deplorable umpiring calls. Melbourne needed a reality check and it’s probably not bad to get it from a side like Adelaide, gives them a bit of confidence too.

 

[AngryAnt]

Any interest in Cerra? Will be low $400ks, could end up an M9 and one to carry through the byes (although awful round 14 bye).

 

[Leroy]

Looking through the head to heads...
Gosh that 400 looks good !

 

[Blaze]

Great win by the Crows, played well all game, but that non-call of deliberate was an absolute disgrace and I’d hope even the most one-eyed crows fans can acknowledge that.

Dees fans fuming and with good reason.

100% agree that was deliberate BB, but Sholl touched it and it was called a goal and petty was stone cold HTB not called in the 3rd Q etc etc... i would still rather be 10-1 so don't worry too much you guys will kill it this year!

Depending on his score tonight think he could be very popular during the week

At least half a dozen have mentioned him the last few days.

 

[Drew]

He just looks so unco and clumsy this season , really thought he was developing along nicely (not sure if he is playing injured or not).

Can't deny his effort , even in general play in space you can almost see the team mates not wanting to give him the ball.

It was a great mark bit certainly heart in the mouth stuff watching him handball it.

Yeah he's definitely a bit unco tonight, but he was pretty good against the arguably the best ruck in the comp. I’ll give him a pass mark tonight given we won mate 😂

Very interested. Had initially planned to grab him next round to replace Scott but considering the performance of Madden, Jordon could be on the chopping block for Steele.

Richo - "I think we've seen two of the worst set shots ever"

Expert commentary, from experience.

That Jackson bloke is damn good 😉

Happy Birthday , look out Hindley Street.

Might be a bit of horse racing going on.

Pretty much in my team next week unless he’s injured.

Thanks mate, might take it easy tonight, going out tomorrow for drinks, might head down the local to celebrate and have a couple of drinks for the win.

Dees fans fuming more about being beaten by a bottom team that should not have been in the game.

Superior intent and pressure was the difference, not umpiring decisions

 

[Rumbler]

On a negative note...looks like we traded out Rowe way too early...

 

[Herbie66]

Must be getting old.

What's wrong with starting now and going to work on Monday ?

Oh don’t worry, i made sure I booked Monday off, will be 42, definitely getting to old to work with a hangover!

 

[Herbie66]

Wonder how many players make mistakes during the game (that might not be heavily scrutinized) that could reverse the result if they didn't make that mistake.

Probably too many to isolate.
