Don’t disagree.

He is? He is surrounded by sub 30 game players and still performs admirably basically every week. Weird target to pick amongst this lot.

I’m honestly not sure what North coaching staff would have done either way, no proven key defenders as far as the eye can see anyway.

Fisher is a genuine liability. Avoids contact, is always 20m off his man, fumbles constantly. He’s not alone today but holy hell he’s no good.

You feel it’s this type of sly coach-craft that has just given Geelong the slightest of edges today.

So many times there’s no excuse for Geelong players being so free. North were going inside 50 and Fisher was standing 20m off his opponent on the wing for no reason at all. Ball comes back out and goes to his player, up the Geelong end for a goal. Just sheer laziness and sh*t coaching. Ridiculous.

Larkey contributed to it, but I think the umpire was blindsided so saw a defender pinning an arm and paid the free.

If you want the free he got to be paid then there would be 2 free kicks in every single contest. Insanely soft free.

What? Your own fans are admitting they were there. You can’t face away from the ball and wrap up a player; you can’t reach out and trip someone, and you can’t pin a forward’s arm down (Larkey was contributing to that as well)

I think the umpire was on the other side so just saw Larkey’s arm being held down by the defender. But yeah, unlucky for the defender in that circumstance.

It’s different when they are clearly frees. The two to Curnow and McKay were ridiculously soft

What are you on about? North received two late first round picks, far less than many other teams have received in the past.

Again, remarkably irrelevant comment. Huge umpiring error in Freo’s favour that likely prevented it going back to just 13 points. Freo have been dominant since half time, that doesn’t change the fact that the non-call was a huge piece of fortune.

It likely would’ve been 13 points with 8 minutes left. Would’ve been interesting for “never a chance”. Very fortunate umpiring mistake in Freo’s favour.

Wow what a gift that non out on the full is. Massive chance to go back to 13 points.

Don’t want to see any more complaints from Freo fans. Bounce not brought back that went out of the circle in Jackson’s favour, then Switkowski caught cold but play on.

A Carlton fan talking about handouts? Now I’ve seen it all. How many top ten picks were you lot given again?

Exciting signs. Powell coming of age and LDU showing how elite he is in the clinches when fully fit. Stephenson is disappointing as a player. Good skills, but often shows zero game awareness or composure.

I think you’ll still go on to win by a few goals, run and gun takes serious cardio that the young guys won’t have the tank for this early.

Which handouts are dominating the game today for us? Be specific. Our best players today have been Powell, LDU, Sheezel and McKercher, none of which were handouts. So who do you mean?

Okay, I’ll take the word of the imperial Freo fan in here conceding it was touched then.

Ah yes, those two late first round picks really dominating the game for us.

I agree the quality is embarrassing, but his fingers clearly got pushed back from multiple angles, it was just whether it was before or after the line. Last angle showed the ball still half on the line. The review system is a farce, but I think that was the right call on the (terrible) evidence...

What were you watching? His fingers all bend back with the ball still half on the line?

What? His fingers got pushed back and the ball was still half on the line?

lol, coward response. Walter’s duck was as blatant as they get.

And my answer is no? What is yours?

You are happy with clear ducking being rewarded?

Did you think of this all by yourself?

Strongly disagree. It’s round zero. Have put the reigning premiers to the sword, no need to bleed unnecessarily at this stage. Message sent.
