You mean like when he stood and watch the real sniper, Campbell Brown, punch Welsh I'm the back ofthe head after he had marked the ball causing him to drop the
mark. The arseholes neither paid the mark or the free kick.

Welsh was taken out right in front of him, 30 meters directly in front, he was the only person in the stadium who didnt see it. He is a useless cheating c u n t.

The Hille thing wasnt that bad, one of those collisions you cant really control. he was reported, but I would be blown away if he didnt get off.

Welsh should have recieved a free inside fifty early in the second 1/4, christ even walls commented on it and that is saying something. Mclaren was 10 mtrs off the ball and saw hodge belt welsh around the head in a marking contest. The man dosen't like us thats all there is to it. He is a cheat. :x

Hille report seroiusly soft, it should come to nothing. I suspect Fletch could be in trouble tho going off video. Welsh however was just reported for an off the ball incident, very hard to tell from the footage on TV what happened.

Both teams are certainly playing a better brand of footy than they have in the previous few weeks. Umpiring is extremely Hawthorn-sided this term.

Footage looks like Welsh kneed Ellis in the nuts. Hard to say how purposeful it was. Hardly report-worthy - Ellis is a Hawk. He has no balls anyway.

We have given up three 50's? IS that right?

At least three... I'm not sold on the one against Dyson which was the last one given.

As I said, the umpiring has been a bit average this term.

Does anyone have access to the stats? If so, what are Jobes?

Zaharakis has been handy in the forward 50 third term. He's been presenting and making a nuisance of himself quite nicely.

I've recently discovered I use my 'mum voice' and scold the players when they're doing the wrong thing.

"Spike, don't give away the free" in much the same way your mum would say "Don't make me come back there"...

APparently McLaren chose tonight to police - for the first time EVER - this rule about rushing a behind, therefor giving Hawthorn a goal on a golden platter. At least I think that's what happened, I can't possibly work out why the hell else Franklin was given the ball in their goalsquare.

SOFT. UMPIRING.

I'll say it again Mclaren is a cheat and needs to be investigated!

Thanks Mr Numbers Man. I thought he'd been a bit quiet but Quarterbrain et al seem to think he's done quite well, so I was wondering.
