I don't recall much from the other matches, but will add my feedback from the Swans vs Bombers game.

16 Hosking
Lacked consistency, didn't call them both ways, appeared to favour Essendon throughout the game. Most likely won't get another final.

18 Chamberlain
Consistent throughout, rarely missed anything and showed no bias. Called them both ways, no matter how right or wrong. Will most likely umpire the GWS vs Eagles game

21 Meredith
Not quite as inconsistent as Hosking but inconsistent in the first and third. Let some things slide, missed a number of clear throws and incorrect disposals and tended to bias the away team when there were 50-50 decisions. Will most likely be an emergency for the Cats vs Swans game, but could still get another match.
