"Brad Ottens was reported"
"The fireworks started 40 minutes before the opening bounce, when Geelong forward Cam Mooney ran through the Kangaroos' huddle"
"Matthew Egan with a knee injury"

can anyone confirm the ottens report? the other two quotes show quality fact checking though.

Otto reported as stated on Herald Sun's report of the game. Was the late hit on Firitto when he scored the goal, doubt it will stand as both trundled off.

Soft IMO.

Hahahahahaha, he actually got reported for that?

Hahahahahahahaha.

Surely, you jest?

"After scoring three goals in the first 15 minutes of the match, the 'Roos were outscored 23.16 to 5.2 for the rest of the game"

If that was the case, wouldn't the final scores be 25.16 to 8.2, since the scores were 2.0 to 3.0 after 15 minutes?

Quality reporting from the AFL site too;

Max Rooke sat passively against a wall chatting with medical staff; Jimmy Bartel, his right eye blackened by five stitches after yet another blow to the head, looked for somewhere to lie down; Cam Mooney carried around his baby daughter like only a proud Dad can; Josh Hunt replayed moments of the game with teammate David Johnson; Jimmy Kelly accepted congratulations from his father.

I thought he had a son? Jagger?

He does have a son, Jagger.

from the way i read the afl site today, Ottens was never reported, only looked at by the review panel today. so all round, that article by some anonymous AAP journo was rather exceptional...
