Ump gives a dubious deliberate which results in an inside 50 to the dogs. We hold up, again. 50-50 holding in the contest.....goes to the dogs. Free kicks 16-9 and the non-free kicks are killing us.

Dogs get a free....and an advantage....and an open forward line and somehow manage to overuse it and stuff up a gimme goal. Something drastic needs to happen in the last 20 minutes of this game for us to lose it....even with Cripps playing with 1 arm.

Dogs finally start playing wet weather football (play for territory) as the game starts to dry up. We've started going for more marks (and taking them). We've been one step ahead of the dogs in the way we have been playing all night. We take a mark inside 50 to casboult. Ump takes it off us for a hold against Harry just outside the contest. Another call from the umps that effect the scoreboard not in our favour.

Good mark and goal from Gov. Gets him another game next week.

Walsh's kicking is awful at the moment. A lot of it is just grab and kick (usually high) but even when he looks he's often off. He's probably never played a game in the wet!

Bit of soccer going on out there. Dogs too afraid to pick up the ball because we are right on their tail. Boys are up and about after the break so far. Dogs simply can't keep their feet and/or pick up the ball. The pressure they are under (perceived or otherwise) is off the charts.

Relentless pressure and attack on the ball gets us the first of the 3rd. Someone forgot to tell Martin that the ball is wet. Freakish ability to pick it up and move about, wet or not.

Kudos Kruddler for keeping us posted as I (for one) am blinded to it all. You should wear yellow. You'd fit right in.

And there you have it. If he was the best, that's why we have been a joke for as long as we have been. He was a joke and Adelaide have discovered that... And Houlihan before him. The fact Adelaide are not playing him is a joke.....like the rest of the club currently. I've never seen a club implode like they have in such a short time. Makes our dark years look good by contrast. Foot skills in a strong, aggressive body is like a unicorn. If you find one, let me know. You trade foot skills for inside aggression. You don't get both.

13 scoring shots to 6. Unfortunately for us that 6 is 5.1 Clearly the better side thus far.

High contact from Willo? Ump guessed at that one and got it wrong. Then Harry pinged for unrealistic attempt! Plowman didn't get one 3 minutes earlier though. Starting to piss me off.

another questionable (non-decision) by the umps are the karate kid into SPS' guts in the marking contest. Goal result. 1st ump said he was blindsided. Where is razor ray from 100m away to make the override?!

and i quote... "Awesome smother by Plowman" Playing between 2 dogs and timed it perfectly to thwart an inevitable shot at goal.

What did you think of the 1 arm tackle? Honestly didn't see it. I just saw him get jumped on (no free) then get it out of a nest of 3 doggies around him though. Harry goes bang after another good team effort of playing territory footy (BANG IT FORWARD)

Pittonets ruckwork has been about as good as we've seen from a carlton jumper since Matty Allen was running around.
