How was Rohan not given a Clanger for that dropped, uncontested chest mark, that lead to that last goal??????!!!!!! o_Oo_Oo_Oo_O
I thought he didn't even touch it, or it was a strategic 'let it through to the keeper' play?

Didn’t lose possession maybe?

He had just sprinted 100m to be available (it's why he had a few metres on the defender) so the exertion at the end of the game was too much I reckon to hold the catch.

Was it a clanger? In effect yes, but it was also a goal assist - could you grade the possession as both of those at the same?

For sure and one cancels the other out.

Pretty much one of the definitions of a Clanger, is to drop an uncontested Mark.

Haven't seen McLean in years, was a premo forward for half a season a few years ago when given a good run through the midfield.
