These goal reviews are bordering on ridiculous…
4 in this game now…must be a directive from the AFL to have more this year…
slows our great game down and takes the energy out of the stadium..
The goal umpires positioning is so bad now. They know they can use it, so they don't bother to stand behind the goal post to see if it hits it. They always stand watching the goal line in case someone touches it. Slows the game down, but it's ok. You run within 700 metres of someone kicking the ball, and it's a 50 for slowing the game down. AFL can't be wrong though haha.

Heard on radio, its an AFL directive to ask for a review if any doubt.

Happy with Meek putting up a decent score against Witts. Hopefully his benching was just saving him with the game gone.

Sheezel, McKercher, Powell, Reid, Dempsey and Campbell to come
