Geelong Match

[Melbourne Toffee]

Sorry for the delay in posting this, but what did everyone think of the Steve Johnson hit on Ben Holland in the last quarter? I was at the ground and I was shocked it wasn't paid a free kick, but I am a bit biased. What is everyone else's views?

I lost the plot when it wasn't paid. Up out of the chair, expletives flying in all directions. Horrible decision.

Didnt think much of it IMO, players have been reported it on occasions but on others its just been deemed a fair bump.

 

[StingaArmstrong]

Didn't think it was awful, but i've seen worse paid. The fact Holland acted a bit, probably swayed the umpire into not paying it.

 

[Bartram_Class]

He lifted his head at the last moment, which might have saved him a bad injury but cost himself the free kick.

No point harping on it for too long.

Don't worry about that. We were robbed by the goal umpires for the second time this year. FFS how hard can goal umpiring be? Get it right you maggots.

You idiot. I'm a Melbourne member & was sitting in perfect position to see what happened - correct decision to call it a point.

How about the Geelong one where it was paid a point for a double grab when it was a clear mark?

We threw away a huge lead & its not good enough. Must be better.
