Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 15 2026 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs GWS
Rewatched the game, a few things stood out for me in this game;

Umpiring.  I just don't understand so many calls, even worse are the awful missed calls. 
Dreadful delivery into F50 by both sides. Park football stuff.
Woeful goal kicking... We kick from angles far too often but we waste so many set shots.  Talor needs to nail the few chances he gets and he ain't. Thirty metres out should be simple.
Our marking targets McG- Kemp-Harry are an issue. Harry plays better up the ground, Kemp can't finish reliably and McG is barely going. 
If Derkson is going to make it he needs a kicking coach...he lays back on every kick and its heart in mouth stuff every time as a result.
Cerra's lack of pace and current "third wheel status" in the midfield - going to get squeezed out I reckon.
There was an amazing contest between Ainsworth and a Giants mid in the square, both players went real hard and it was great....I shudder to think about Jagga slammed like that..  He is still very small and light and it was really obvious against the likes of Stone, Callaghan, Daniels etc

Liked Dean not taking crap from Greene, who is looking at a holiday if the MRO has any consistency at all.
I reckon Greene is all but out the door to the Cats- I posit that a few senior types at GWS aren't buying what's been sold.  They're a bazillion times better than losing at home to us by 4 goals (should have been 10).

I did option #2 tonight at home, washed down with a Rockford basket pressed '15.  Love the glaze that forms on the lamb.

Thanks people.  My wife works in the oncology sphere and believe me, there is hope, it just takes decades to translate minor wins in vitro or models to safe, effective treatments.

Elwood, he deteriorated over about six months and it was hought he had an aggressive form of dementia.  Lewy-Body was suggested. When they finally did a scan they found the tumour on Monday and we lost him on the Friday.
