white shirt to the right of Lachie Neale

this probably explains Mitch Lewis' s**t start to the year as well.

I was in jeans and a big warm jumper all night. It would have been too cold to wear just a shirt. I was in Auckland on the Tuesday/Wednesday before the game and at times it was too warm to wear a jumper. I was in Melbourne the day before the Essendon game and I wouldn't have dreamed of...

What I'm saying is that the conditions were similar to what we'd typically expect in Melbourne. In fact it was more humid in Melbourne on Saturday night than it was on the GC (yes it was a few degrees warmer on the GC but early 20's shouldn't be a problem).

the facts are though that that the conditions for that evening were similar or in some cases more mild than other games we had played this year. Yes I get it, Brisbane/Gold Coast are hotter and more humid in general than Melbourne. But on this night on the Gold Coast, it could have easily been...

The conditions were absolutely fine, we didn't have to make any adjustments to our normal game, there was no dew, we weren't slipping or sliding, Frost was nailing laser corridor kicks. We have had hotter/more slippery/more humid games this year previous to this one.

I was born and raised in Melbourne/Drouin, same education opportunities as you mate. Facts are for our games this year: We played Essendon in the middle of the day on the 16th March and it was 27 degrees & 37% humidity We played Melbourne at twilight on the 23rd March and it was 18 degrees &...

Scrimshaw has spent years in that system up there and these were one of the most mild nights he's played a game on the GC. He also pretty much marked everything.

We played Essendon in the middle of the day on the 16th March and it was 27 degrees & 37% humidity We played Melbourne at twilight on the 23rd March and it was 18 degrees & 62% humidity We played Geelong mid afternoon on 1st April and it was 25 degrees & 88% humidity We played Collingwood...

I can only tell you what I experienced, it was a perfect coolish dry non windy night which is rare for the GC.

I did see them zone plenty of times but only one kick ahead of the ball not a full zone.

Sorry mate, weather was perfect, it was dry, very little wind, no dew to speak of. All the marks that Chol fumbled (outside of a couple of obvious but non paid infringements by Collins) were skill/mental errors.

Suns really wanted to win as much as the umpires wanted them to win.
