Do you get to any VFL EB1?

Seriously, this kid deserved a game 5 or 6 weeks back when SoJ got a game for doing nada! Further to that, listening to the radio today while watching the game it was heart breaking to hear the so called experts questioning SoJ's future, they basically accused our club of manufacturing a position for him! But that's been the worry all along, a game for the name, and when the luddites in the media get hold of that concept you know it's no longer a subtlety!

Then when Polson is run out of form, after 3 or 4 really good weeks, for reasons I do not know they promote him! We've been doing this sh1t for years!

7 days after a compound fracture ?
You could have chopped his arm off with a blunt butter knife while he was watching and he wouldn’t have flinched, but yeah he did stink it up out there.

Went along, Simmo was awesome and it was a real shame the boys couldnt get it done today. Poor old Pulse had a shocker, some critical 50s given away. 2 pts at 3/4 time and I thought we were a real chance. Flippa was very good today, Charlie is just special and as I said last week, will only get better, and I mean  scary better. I liked bits of Picketts game, what a shame he got injured early in the year. He is just what we need. The difference today was they kicked the ones they had to and we didn't. Wrighty had one to forget and has been ordinary by his standards for a bit. We simply cant carry passengers (Mullet, SPS, Polson).
I normally tend to avoid talking about umpires but they had a shocker today.

Not sure about the rules these days but it used to be that if you made a goal post move it used to be a goal.   Garletts second shot was overturned on video review after the PA player smashed into the post trying to touch it. The post was wobbling like crazy before the ball went through.  I thought that negated the hit-the-post rule?  

Hit the back of the post too.   Dodgy call I reckon.

Get to the odd game LP....watched Polson a couple of times and he was ok without being brilliant, I see a pick 60 odd player who has a go but lacks nous and some fundamentals...
I would have played Darcy Lang today...

I thought the Garlett goal was overturned because our bloke touched the ball, or was that another?

I cut SPS some slack as he had 7 tackles...Rowe, Lamb, Weitering and Jack had one tackle each......Mullet had two ......very hard to win a game when your defenders dont pressure.

The transformation in Jones has been astounding, he'd be among the first half dozen picked these days and he'd get a game at most AFL clubs.
Do we chalk him up to Malthouse?

I saw the seven tackles stat, pretty sure they were in the second half mostly, did SFA for the first two. I just can work out what his role is.
