Yeah I saw them run into each other too but did not look bad. Certainly not bad enough to make him sick from it

Clashed heads with Koschitzke and went up the race. Must have been ok because he came back and played well on Riewoldt in the last quarter.

If I had ever kicked a 75m torp on the run I would have been straight off and into the toilets for some hand relief...

That's what the video after the game is for, Pear, so you can pause at the appropriate moment, as well.

It was off two steps as well. If he hit properly, as Wayne Carey said, it would have travelled 90 meters.

As for Kosi, say what you like, but he is as soft as butter and a dumb footballer in general. May have the height and leap, but is just a dumb footballer on the field.
He kicks on the left
He kicks on the riiiiiiiiigggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhttttttttttttt

Also looked to me like the pansy Kosi gave him a low blow as well.

It was way awesome. Should become a set play if it isn't already.

Absolutely awesome stuff. Took me a bit to figure out it was Fletch that kicked it. No-one around me was really sure.

Will Kosi get cited for his hit on Fletch?

Will be interesting to see if he gets goal of the week. From reports, Yze kicked a good one as did Hunter today. Would be great to see Fletches massive torp get the nod though, as it is so unique to todays game.

How could you not tell it was Fletch who kicked it??? No one else in the team can roost it that far... no, not even Scotty!!!

Simply awesome!!! It even had my dad, the ultimate pesimist, on his feet going nuts!!!

I was sitting almost right behind it and I went nuts! :D

And yes, Kossie, the big f*cking girl's blouse, whacked him just as he turned around. Gutless.

Awesome stuff and remember he almost did the same against Freo, that one just missed.

Indeed, although McPhee is not eligible for MOTY because Stanton was paid a free for in the back on that play.
Aaron Francis is the Messiah.
